Before ye champions dismiss this as tripe, consider for a minute the points that may actually work in the favour of a mobile game like Mini Militia. Here, I’ll look at both these games from the perspective of a college kid because that is what I am. If you are a serious gamer who is already fuming over the title of this article, stand down, friend and read on. Graphics There really is no competition here. Mini Militia is the ‘Diary of a Wimpy Kid’ to CS:GO’s ‘War and Peace’. However, the mobile platform severely restricts what the developers can do and Mini Militia does a nice enough job with its cartoony graphics. The point here is that even those without a laptop to their own can easily get into Mini Militia. Even if you don’t have a fancy laptop, chances are that even your budget smartp...
Grow, Evolve and Battle for Dominance in New Ubisoft Game Atomega Today, Ubisoft announced Atomega, a new online multiplayer FPS available on September 19th, 2017 on Steam. Developed by Reflections, a Ubisoft studio, in the same small incubator which created Grow HomeTM and Grow Up, Atomega was made with a creatively experimental mind-set, deliberately seeking to create unusual concepts which will surprise and delight players. Atomega takes place at the very end of time where reality is rapidly dissolving. All that exists are Exoforms, super advanced post-biological lifeforms, masters of matter, energy and the last distant relative to man and machine. As the laws of physics slowly repeal, the Exoforms fight for fun and dominance, replaying the final moments of the universe in an arena at t...

Battlefield 4 has come back to EA’s “Game Time” promotion on Origin, which means that PC users can now play the game for free. EA is giving you seven days of free play, though the clock runs through your eating and sleeping time.

Much like its predecessors, Far Cry 4 will allow you to do your killing in the same quiet and stealthy fashion. But we can see many gamers opting out of that when you can ride an elephant. It really doesn’t get much cooler than that! You can pretty much smash through gates and take aim at helpless enemies with your shotgun. The video below from PlayStation Access will show you two very different approaches to getting through a certain section of the upcoming open-world FPS. Crossbows are like the bare minimum you need to do to get through, but getting all king-of-the-jungle on rather shocked enemies…that pretty fun too!
