Bethesda's Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim dominated the D.I.C.E. awards last year with wins in five categories. Following strong showings at the 2012 Spike VGAs , will Journe y and The Walking Dead be able to keep their winning streaks alive? Will either game earn more awards than Skyrim ? What do you th

That said, one precedent that Call of Duty: Mobile has set is its penchant for returning extremely popular and beloved maps, characters, and items. This means players will likely get the chance to blow out zombie brains on maps like Nacht der Untoten, the first ever Nazi Zombies map from Call of Duty: World at War, and Five , in which the players take control of John F. Kennedy, Richard Nixon, Fidel Castro, and Robert McNam

From there, Call of Duty Mobile could look to the original Black Ops game next, as its maps were a continuation of the World at War style. Still, despite being small and simple, areas like Kino Der Toten and Ascension have become some of the most nostalgic and enjoyable locations for fans. As such, porting over these maps would be a safe way to expand the mode further. While Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 and 3 contain maps that are arguably the best in the mode’s history, they are far more complicated and extremely reliant on easter eggs. As such, TiMi Studios should stick to Call of Duty: World at War and Call of Duty: Black Ops maps if it rebuilds its Zombies m

SMGs are meant for aggressive playing like charging into players head-on. SMGs generally have a low damage range so trying to hit a target from a long distance while camping will be mostly ineffective even for the best play

Going prone from a distance doesn't throw most opponents off all that much, though it does provide them with a smaller target to aim at. A good player will still take a target out even after they go prone, especially from a dista

"The D.I.C.E. Awards are VERY important to me. I have been playing video games since there were video games. I hope there is some type of Dovahkiin Shout that will make sure I don't mess this up. I will find one! If not, I'll just look like a psychotic, screaming a**hole leading up to the Awar

While they are likely the deadliest players in COD , a sniper that doesn't know what they're doing won't really pose much of a threat. When sniping, a player wants to have their options open in case they are tracked d

For me, this is the very essence of what a great mobile title should be. A simple concept (Steakfries has stolen a jetpack from a secret lab and must fly the greatest distance he can while evading security), gameplay to match (hold a finger to the screen to fly upwards, release to fall) and a progression and achievement system satisfying enough to help you keep on trucking. Add in developer Halfbrick’s trademark heaping helping of humour and you’ve got a real winner h

Coming to Call of Duty Mobile shortly after launch, the game’s Zombies was quickly removed after failing to meet the quality standards of TiMi Studios. Despite this failure, a recent Call of Duty Mobile survey has hinted that the co-op mode could be returning after an absence of over a year. While there is good reason to be excited about this possibility, there are several things that will need to be done differently to make the second attempt at Call of Duty Warzone leaks of Duty Mobile Zombies a succ

If a player with slow ADS speed is caught by surprise, they will be taken out even if the enemy happens to be using their type of weapon. In a scenario where both weapons are the same, it all comes down to the ADS speed. Whoever fires first w

Seven years later, the franchise has taken more twist and turns than the plot of the average Dan Brown novel. There’s the usual bird-firing puzzle variant, there are match 3 games, there’s a shoot ‘em up, even a fully-fledged RPG with equipment crafting. There’s also a movie, but we won’t talk about that because it’s terrible. Suffice it to say, there’s something for everyone in this franchise, that’s for damn s

In Plants vs Zombies Heroes , you play not with seed packets but a deck of 40 cards. It’s a collectible card game in the Hearthstone mold, in which you take turns placing cards on a five-lane board. As the name suggests, too, there’s a similar heroes mechanic in play too, making this a great one for Hearthstone fans to pick up. It’s light on the microtransactions, too, which is a real p

Teamwork has always been a key aspect of the Zombies mode in the Call of Duty games of the past, but it was largely limited to helping each other kill zombies and reviving fallen party members. For the most part, though, players had to fend for themselves. Cooperative gameplay is a little different in Undead Siege. With the main goal of the game is protecting the teams' base for three to five nights in a row, all party members have a vested interest in helping each other out and improving their base's material condit
