Whether it's for playstation, Xbox, PC, or Nintendo we can all I think we are all amped for what the new years brings to the table. So playa's, So here are the Top 10 Video Games to Get Excited About in 2015 Courtesy of whatculture.com

1. The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt

CD Projekt RED

Developer: CD Projekt RED
Platform: PC, Playstation 4, Xbox One
Release Date: 24 February, 2015
Playing through the Witcher series has been like watching CD Projekt RED grow and develop as game creators. The first game was ambitious and well-written, but the developers just couldn’t quite deliver on what they wanted to accomplish. Then, along came the second game, which offered an incredible cinematic narrative, beautiful graphics and challenging gameplay.

The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is looking like a culmination of everything CD Projekt RED have learned across their journey in creating this brilliant franchise. Judging from gameplay footage, the graphics and animations are better than ever, and this time the game will take place in a huge open world. Combat has never been a strong point of the Witcher games, but it’s looking like the devs have been working hard to hone this aspect in Wild Hunt. Vast, compelling and beautiful, The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt looks like the first game in a long time that could genuinely take the elusive title of ‘best RPG ever made’.

2. Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain

Kojima Productions

Developer: Kojima Productions
Platform: Playstation 3, Playstation 4, Xbox 360, Xbox One, PC
Release Date: 2015
Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes was only the starter in a sumptuous feast cooked up by Hideo Kojima, and The Phantom Pain is the main course. An open-world action stealth title, Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain just might be the most anticipated title from the acclaimed series so far.
The graphics are already shaping up to be pretty incredible, featuring some of the smoothest animations we’ve ever seen. The addition of a day-and-night cycle, a massive world and several drivable vehicles ought to lend to an even more open-ended gameplay experience than ever before. Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain is looking to be one of the first ‘true next-gen’ games when it comes to gameplay. Which brings us nicely on to our number one most anticipated 2015 title…

3. Bloodborne

From Software

Developer: From Software
Platform: Playstation 4
Release Date: 2015
All at once, PS4 owners rejoiced and everyone else sighed when it was announced that Bloodborne would be an exclusive for Sony’s console. Directed by Dark Souls and Demon’s Souls’ Hidetaka Miyazaki, Bloodborne looks to bring the Souls games’ tight gameplay into a fresh new setting.
Bloodborne takes place in a ruined city, housing weaponry far more technologically advanced than swords and shields. This time around, players are able to wield gunpowder weapons along with the usual assortment of grandiose melee weaponry, along them to attack weapons at range with devastating attacks. Anything by From Software is worth keeping two eyes on, and the prospect of playing a Souls-like game in a brand new universe is easy to get excited about.

 

 

4. The Legend Of Zelda Wii U

Nintendo EAD

Developer: Nintendo EAD
Platform: Wii U
Release Date: 2015
A new Zelda game is always a big event for Nintendo fans, and The Legend of Zelda Wii U is looking like the biggest shakeup for the series since The Wind Waker back in 2003. The game will once again return to a cel-shaded look, although Zelda Wii U takes a far more detailed approach than the minimalistic Wind Waker.
Another hotly touted feature is the large, open world environment, intended to give players the similar feel of freedom they have when playing the earlier 2D games. Intriguingly, producer Eiji Aonuma has also stated that his team is looking in ways to reinvent the puzzles that the series is known for, beyond just “moving blocks so that a door opens.” It looks like Wii U owners could be in for a treat.

 

 

5. Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End

Naughty Dog

Developer: Naughty Dog
Platform: Playstation 4
Release Date: 2015
The Tomb Raider reboot might have been an impressive offering, but even its greatest moments couldn’t quite match up to the cinematic glory of the Uncharted series. Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End will be an exclusive for the Playstation 4, and a direct continuation of the original trilogy.
Again, there hasn’t been a huge amount revealed about Uncharted 4, although Naughty Dog have stated that the narrative will test Drake’s, “physical limits, his resolve, and ultimately what he’s willing to sacrifice to save the ones he loves.” Judging from its predecessors, Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End will be a true test of the Playstation 4’s capabilities, throwing players on an exciting ride along the way.

6. Rise Of The Tomb Raider

Crystal Dynamics

Developer: Crystal Dynamics
Platform: Xbox 360, Xbox One, PC, Playstation 4
Release Date: Holiday 2015
Square Enix’s Tomb Raider from 2013 was a solid reboot of a dying franchise, somehow managing to make Lara Croft and her adventures relevant again. Rise of the Tomb Raider is the sequel, set after Lara’s journey of discovery and survival in the last game.
There hasn’t been much in the way of official information just yet, although Crystal Dynamics have promised that they’ll be “putting the tombs back in Tomb Raider”. If the polished gameplay and great looks of the first game could be combined with some classic tomb environments, then Rise of the Tomb Raider might be exactly what fans have been waiting for.

7. Tom Clancy’s The Division

Ubisoft Massive

Developer: Ubisoft Massive
Platform: PC, Playstation 4, Xbox One
Release Date: 2015
Tom Clancy’s The Division might sound a bit generic from the title, but it’s really unlike anything the Tom Clancy franchise has ever seen. If you haven’t seen anything about The Division yet, you might be surprised to learn that it’s an MMO third-person shooter.
The Division is set in a United States that’s been torn apart by a terrible disease, leaving the country in a semi-apocalyptic state. Players are part of the titular ‘Division’, that has been assembled in order to fight against outside threats that have come about thanks to the deadly outbreak. Enemies are made up of both AI-controlled characters and other players, across the massively multiplayer world.

8. Batman: Arkham Knight

Rocksteady Studios

Developer: Rocksteady Studios
Platform: PC, Playstation 4, Xbox One
Release Date: February 24, 2015
Batman: Arkham Origins wasn’t particularly great. The story was dull in comparison to its predecessors, the combat felt tired, and it smelled suspiciously like a cheap cash grab in almost every way. So why is the next entry in the Arkham series still highly anticipated?
Two words: Rocksteady Studios.

Arkham Origins was developed without Rocksteady’s direct involvement, while Arkham Knight will be, just like Asylum and City. This simple fact makes it far more likely that Arkham Knight will be able to match up to the high quality of the first two games. In this third sequel, Batman is at the peak of his abilities, fighting against the villainous Scarecrow and his forces. The levels involving Scarecrow in Arkham Asylum were the best parts in a game filled with high points, so Arkham Knight should be one for Batman fans to get excited about.

9. The Order: 1886

Ready at Dawn

Developer: Ready at Dawn
Platform: Playstation 4
Release Date: February 20, 2015
The Order: 1886 will be a Playstation 4 exclusive title, set in an alternate history London in which terrifying monsters exist. Protecting the general populace from these monsters are an ancient order of knights, who are the only thing standing between human kind and these strange creatures.
There has been some gameplay footage released for the game, and it looks absolutely stunning. The gothic London environments drip with atmosphere, with flickering torches casting prowling shadows in the dark. The gameplay looks slightly less fresh than the excellent aesthetics, appearing as a fairly standard linear action-adventure – quicktime events and all. We’ve only been shown a small vertical slice so far though, and it’s looking like The Order: 1886 will deliver a stellar narrative experience, if nothing else.

10. Mortal Kombat X

NetherRealm Studios

Developer: NetherRealm Studios
Platform: PC, Playstation 3, Playstation 4, Xbox 360, Xbox One
Release Date: 2015
A new Mortal Kombat game is never a bad thing, and Mortal Kombat X is looking like a great new entry in the series. As the name suggests, this will be the tenth Mortal Kombat title, and it looks to retain the series’ classic gore and combat, along with a few new innovations.
Mortal Kombat X will once again pit two fighters against each other in a series of levels, as the battle using special abilities, attacks and the iconic fatalities (which are sure to be more spectacularly gruesome than ever). This time around, interaction with the environment will also be possible, in the same manner as NetherRealm’s Injustice: Gods Among Us. Add in the ability for every fighter to switch between three different forms with unique abilities, and Mortal Kombat X is looking like the most ambitious in the series yet.

YO Playa's, Red Barrels is Working On Outlast 2?

"Outlast 2 Will Be The ISH No "Ands, If's,But's (hopefully big ones)" About it! Playa's!

Yo Playa's I didn't know Red Barrels was working on Outlast 2, thats straight CRAY! I must have been living under a rock because they announced it 2 months ago back in October (which is my Birthday). Anyways, this is exciting news, seeing the amount of success the first game had introducing a different perspective to the horror genre. Ya'll know a playa is used to runnin & gunnin a MUF%$#@ down if he/she try'n run upon me, I'm talking Zombies, Vampires, Ooogly Boogly Monsters THEY CAN ALL GET IT. 4real 4real. Outlast however, places you in a environment with a pack of insane psycho's locked away in a asylum. Some are koo, others wanna pummell you, & a couple just wanna see you DEAD! (Walker & Wall Rider Ghost). If Outlast 2 delivers like the first, you can bet your sweetcakes this game will be runner up for game of the year on Consoles! No Joke Playa's!

What Playa's should expect from Outlast 2

Evidently the announcement of the game came courtesy of a Bloody Disgusting interview (Shout out to them, Im actually a fan of their gameplay videos) in which Red Barrels made the big announcement they already began working on Outlast2 immediately after shipping out the 'Outlast DLC: Whistleblower". Outlast Co Founder Philippe Morin put the playa's on game, saying:

" So, yes, we are working on Outlast 2.

The game will be a survival horror experience and it will take place in the same universe as Outlast, but it will have different characters and a different setting. We might go back to Mount Massive Asylum one day, but for now we have new ideas and themes we’d like to explore and we think we’re cooking up something special. "

“We’re still a small indie studio (12 people), so we’ll need a little bit of time to ship our next game, but hopefully it will be worth it. "

O ISH, it sounds like they gonna put the playa's in a completely diverse environment. I mean, what could be more creepy than an asylum full of crazy Mofo's? A hospital perhaps? Maybe even a quarantined zone somewhere in a city? IDK a playa just shootin out ideas, but whatever Red Barrels comes up with I'm sure it's going to be on point. I can tell just from what Phil said in the interview was genuine that his team wants to truly create a terrifying experience the playa's will never Eva..Eva EvA forget.

" We really want to keep on improving our craft, but ultimately we’ll approach things the same way we did with the first game, which was to make a game we’re scared to play ourselves and trust our instinct. "

This is all the playa's want, you make a game that you would be to scared to play yourself (or a game you yourself would want to play) and you will always win over the playa's hearts & cash every time. major corp dev's, & publishers (cuz its just not dev's nowdays) could learn a thing or 2 from Red Barrels, seriously. You want your brand to make money, then make a game right the first time and it'll be pie in the sky playa.

I look forward to the release of Outlast 2, and playa's I'm sure ya'll do to! Let's GET IT!

My first Impression of Tropica 5, THIS ISH LOOK LIKE SETTLERS!

Tropica 5

What up Playa's?! Yo, Im going to hop straight into this ish with another game, Ima be playing a PC game called Tropica 5 soon which is actually interesting. Tropica 5 gives you a chance to take control & build a nation starting from the earliest stages of man allowing you to stretch your rule from early colonial period to beyond the early 21st century. This game is ideal for any individual who is obsessed with building nations, managing people, learning new ISH and so forth. I figure this qualifies as a puzzler/strategy game on account of the way that each move you make decides the destiny not only for yourself but also your country men & women. For example, If you don't manufacture a library, well the individuals in your nation will end up being uneducated (aka stupid) which will hinder your progression as a society. The game is straight forward in regards to your mission, which is to advance your country & make your people happy. It can be a bit of a challenge at first, remembering where all the instruments, structures and so forth are located in your menu slot but it clicks in your head once you have really practiced playing the game a few times. A playa gota say, this game truly reminds me of another PC game me & my couzin used to play when I was younger called Settlers, another PC gamer where a playa can build, destroy & lead a nation.

Going through the Tutorial

When a playa launched the game for the first time, my first impression was DAMN!!, this ish remind me so much of one my childhood games I used to play! but before a playa prejudged I needed to play it for myself. So I chose to experience the game and a playa must admit I very nearly nodded off the first 20 minutes (not that the game was boring, but it's  a Muf%$#@'n TUTORIAL YA'LL!) Once I got the hang of building ISH, enlisting new managers, adding new streets, etc.. a playa ended up really getting a kick out of this game. I'm not huge fan of puzzle & strategy games such as this but Im sure the playa's who are, will LOVE this one. You can find Tropica 5 on Steams site, where I purchased it for $4.99, unfortunately tho their deal finished today (as expected) and now the game is once again at it's original price which is still really cheap compared to it's original full retail price. So what is my thoughts so far on Tropica 5?...

Tropica 5 thoughts

In spite of the fact that a playa played through the tutorial I don't have enough gameplay added to my repertoire to provide a legitimate rating. Once I've played enough of Tropica 5, a playa can give ya'll more of my point of view & suggest whether or not this game is worth its name. So far the game appears koo and I see myself undulging in it more in the near future. Playa's! In the event that you have played Tropica 5 yourself, comment & share your experience with myself and  other playa's as well. With all that said, Ima continue enjoying my Thanksgiving weekend.

Best App emulator? Andy? BlueStacks? or...?

Play Mobile game apps, But who has the best emulator?

What up Playa's, I trust all of you had a delightful Thanksgiving with that heavenly Turkey, Ham, Mash Potatoes & all that great stuff! On another note a playa has been wanting to play & record mobile game apps for some time now which is all fine and dandy but I constantly run into the same issue, being able to play them on my laptop. I've had a few individuals hit me up asking to play their mobile games, and a playa is more than happy to take them up on their offer all the while sharing my experience with the playa's.. Unfortunately, It's become somewhat of a challenge for me to play apps on my laptop. Now, playa's (and Exclusive Playa of course) I wanna ask, if you play mobile app games on PC which emulator do you recommend? I've attempted using both app emulators, Bluestacks & Andy they were both koo but I had a difficult time getting one to work & the other I couldn't even get to launch...what up with that Andy???

Which App Emulator should I use & Why?

Other than The 2 big cheeses Andy & Bluestacks is there an alternative a playa can go with to accomplish this? My experience with both programs were alright, to say the least, Bluestacks is a pain in the @ss to setup & Andy didn't even launch for a playa, even after I tried uninstalling it 3 times!. All I'm looking to do is play mobile games on my smart phone without any additional ISH. So playa's if ya'll know of any programs out there hit me up! Because I would love to play & do commentary over these mobile games and share with you all online, however with the current hurdles, its left a playa scratching his head like...WTF?

"Never Alone" (Kisima Ingitchuna) The return of Allen

What's Pop'n playa's? Hope you all are enjoying your day before thanks giving & hopefully you will all have an incredible Thanksgiving! Now, besides that good ol turkey we gonna gobble up a playa would like you to turn your attention to the PC game Never Alone aka "Kisima Ingitchuna". As some of you may already be aware, I did not have a great experience with my initial gameplay. As a matter of fact I wrote a blog on the reasons why the game WAS NOT ON POINT, click here to read. After playing Never Alone again on a faster PC I came to the conclusion that maybe a playa was wrong in my opinion that this game was bug infested...maybe.

Round 2

So a playa thought to himself (being me) I played Never Alone on my laptop which is not by any means good for gaming, perhaps I ought to have played it on a desktop which is usually somewhat more suped up? First things first Where would I find such a desktop? well it just so happens there was one in our neighborhood community that was open to the public (more or less) so I installed Never alone from my steam account on to their desktop, crossed my fingers, & gave it another go. When I saw the opening screen with the wind blowing easily without any slack on 720p, I knew... this is the OBI WAN KENOBI, IT WAS THE ONE! A playa decided to start from the very beginning in order to give all of you, THE playa's & especially (EXCLUSIVE Playa's!) a flawless gameplay from Allens Game Show. This time around, everything was clean about the game just as it was intended to be. I will admit there was one spot in game with a bug but I figured a way around it. So after playing again for the second time, what does a playa think you ask?

Ok Allen, What do you REALLY think of the PC Game Never Alone?

 

YO! This game is clean! What else is there to say once the dev's work out ALLL the bugs etc. then this game will deserve every single one of the awards that it has earned & WILL EARN in the future. One thing I discovered that was unique & stood out from most games is the story. It's distinctive in that it's focused around an eskimo legend/story probably passed down from generation to generation, can you imagine the sort of recreations that can be made just from storys like the ones our grandparents passed down to us? It would be straight CRAY!! The gameplay is basic & nothing to complex which is the way it ought to be, (I mean you play as a little girl for petes sake, if they made that complicated...idk) With all that said playa's round of applause for the developers of the PC game "Never Alone" (otherwise known as Kisima Ingitchuna) I trust more games with this imagination and awesome story telling will be made the way Never Alone has been created. A Playa looks forward to it!

The Scariest PC Game I've Played This YEAR

Pc horror game Coulrophobia

YO playa's I recently came across one of the scariest games this year NO JOKE! this game had goosebumps runnin down a playa's arms, neck pretty much my whole body during my initial gameplay & even the second time I played!! This ISH is cray! I wanna give a shout out to the developer of COULROPHOBIA for not only making this scary @ss PC game but also for educating a playa on what Coulrophobia means. According to the dictionary term, it is "an abnormal fear of clowns" & looking at this scary MUF%$#@ I can understand why anyone would be. 

The game begins with your plane having crash landed on a deserted island with several distinctive keypoints. You will immediately notice a thick darkness surrounding you as you progress in the game. The game is somewhat similar to "Slender the eight pages" with the main objective of the game falling under the same umbrella, having to collect 6 toys. Each toy draws the dreadful, eery, & probably psychotic clown towards you. Not only that, but pictures of this MUF%$#@'S fam display on your screen immediately after you pick up the first toy...It's quite disturbing actually.

With a few tweaks to the gameplay this game could easily be scariest pc indie game of the year. I will be posting my gameplay video tomorrow morning for all you playa's out there who are sensitive to scary material in the dark. Believe a playa when I tell you Coulrophobia is one of the scariest games I've played this year even more so that Five Nights at Freddy's 2. NO JOKE PLAYA'S I'm being 4real 4real.
