GET TO THE CHOPPA! – Thrash’s DayZ Diary

http://i46.tinypic.com/357o7kx.jpg

There it was, like a tender steak dangling in front of a starving man, the helicopter I had heard flying overhead (and heard so much about) but had never actually seen in person. It lie in the middle of a field with military zombies (the worst kind) surrounding it. Unfortunately it was in a heap, impregnating the air with a thick black smoke. However, this didn’t matter to me. For I had no idea how to pilot a whirly bird, but I could certainly loot it.

DayZ Shiz

So I have been pretty lost in DayZ recently, the zombie mod for Arma 2, and loving it. Been dousing the addiction with Forza, AC3, and even a game that is not yet out but DayZ is right awesome so its winning most of my time. For those of you unaware check out this video (and the entire series really) to learn about the game and pick up on some strategy. Frankie is awesome, this is one of my favorite vids.

Game Informer GTAV Cover Story Scans

Today Game Informer released its December issue unto the world, the issue featuring an 18-page Grand Theft Auto V cover story. You can buy a digital copy of the mag from them via your Mac/PC or your mobile. However, gaming sites have uploaded scans of the article for those of you out their to cheap to fork over the cash. Gaming Everything has uploaded it via scans, I would do it too but A) I am lazy and B) legal issues. So instead I will lead you to their post so you can read the awesome feature from GI yourself. I warn you though the upload is kinda shit, and hard to navigate, if you want to own the screens yourself in an easy to read PDF format it is available here at the Pirate Bay (but you might wanna read this guide on pirating first). This download is absolutely safe and well done indeed.

Grand Theft Auto V sounds absolutely amazing. According to the article when including interior and exterior spaces the game world is larger than GTA: San Andreas, GTA IV, and Red Dead Redemption combined! That’s epic. I was thrilled to see parachutes and bicycles in the images as well, especially with the details that the game will feature an immense amount of non-mission content. Apparently Rockstar is expanding on the massive open-world advances made in Red Dead Redemption into GTAV. Again, epic.

Also, the game will feature three, not one, protagonists that you can switch at any time outside of missions. Epic, again. Of course, read the article and enjoy the screens, it looks to be another amazing GTA from Rockstar.

Must See: Savages

Every once and a while a movie surprises you, not with a plot twist, but with itself. Every once and a while a film – a beautiful film – is created with breathtaking imagery over a classic tale like the finest silks on an old chair. Every once and a while you love again.

4chan Sends Gabe Newell a Birthday Card, and Charges Him For a Hat

Saturday was Gabe Newell’s 50th birthday and the fine folks of 4chan (from /video games/ specifically) sent Valve’s co-founder a massive card. Awesome

Some other /v/ers, visited Gabe and charged him two bucks to open a crate, that held a hat. Ah the lols, see it here.

Pirating For Dummies

Time and again friends who aren’t so keen on technology will inquire as to where and how I downloaded a movie still in theaters and how I got the entire discography of the Beatles without spending a penny. I am a far cry from a tech wiz but I do know a thing or two about pirating and I guess they see me as a way to get things for free. However, quite often, they don’t want to do it themselves. Instead they would rather pay me to do it for them, which baffles me.  I do my best to describe it to them but a lot of times they look at me like a deer in headlights. So, realizing there might be a need for this I decided to create an easy to understand and follow guide to pirating your favorite games, movies and music off the web without getting caught.

Geoff Keighley Whores Out And We’re Paying For It

You may have seen it already, but this video featuring Geoff Keighley (quite possibly the face of game journalism) surrounded by Halo 4 advertisement hurts, it hurts bad.

NFS Most Wanted Quick-Review

Going into Need for Speed Most Wanted I never expected any course of realism. I simply was seeking an over the top arcade racing experience that was good for short bursts of fun, and that is actually present in Most Wanted. Sadly though its hard to find behind some bad gameplay.

Forza Horizon Quick-Review

When the sim fan in me first heard about Forza Horizon he cried foul. Turn 10 deviating from their formula seemed like an idea destined for failure. However, as more news and videos surfaced I soon began to realize the potential of this racer. I mean, when you think about it it truly does make perfect sense. Forza physics in an open world environment, what more could we want?

Medal of Honor: Warfighter Quick-Review

What defines a great game is often things like great gameplay, beautiful graphics, a strong story or great replayability. Unfortunately for Medal of Honor: Warfighter it contains none of these things. Well, that isn’t entirely true, the game is rather good looking thanks to DICE’s Frostbite 2 engine (I am pretty sure this is its first showing in a shooter) but even there it seems to lack at times.
