People who were born in the year of the monkey relish the opportunity to truly indulge in their lives. Horror first-person shooter games are right up their alley. They thrive in urban settings like in F.E.A.R instead of other rural setting ga

As one of the oldest and most storied maps in competitive Counter-Strike history, Jo Bieg's creation in BETA 4.0 of the original Counter-Strike mod has seen iterations and remakes across every single game. Needless to say, Nuke is iconic and up there with the likes of Inferno and Dust II. Due to its reputation, it was the second map to receive a significant revision to not only update the aesthetic but also resolve issues that have persisted for ye

While bulls can be aggressive, Oxes are docile animals. People with the Ox as their Chinese zodiac are strong and determined to achieve goals. In a battle royale setting like PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds , you would have a strong chance of survi

It's not common for skins to look good in every condition. Usually, skins will look their best at the Factory New side of the spectrum (or the Battle-Scarred depending on the skin). Unfortunately, people tend to go for either of the extremes, and other conditions are overlooked. This knife is one of the few exceptions. It's simple and minimalist and looks great in all conditions, so if you want to save some money, it doesn't matter too much if you buy a more worn and cheaper vari

At first, most initial ramps in any Surf Map are easy enough to navigate. However, middle sections of any Surf Map may feature ramps farther away from each other, transforming into headscratchers for most amateur Surfers. Thing is, traversing these "impossible" distances are possible with another Surfing principle: Turn

As it stands the map is heavily CT-sided, especially at the casual level. While there are many options for the T-side to combat a lot of the strengths the CT-side has, many players have cited this to be difficult to execute outside of coordinated and disciplined teams. Meta changes since the map's introduction have done little to change this leading to most matches feeling boring and predictable as to the outcome of the g

2020 is a year of the rat. It's been an inauspicious year due to the coronavirus outbreak, but at least some good things came from the gaming world. The release of new first-person shooter (FPS) games like DOOM Eternal, Half-Life: Alyx, and Call of Duty: Warzone foreshadows a year with great releases to c

But as much as I enjoyed the single player, the multiplayer is what really stood out for me - it was so unique. In each map there are 4 bunkers, and any one a player controls starts spawning soldiers. You can bring up to eight soldiers with you, and ordering them to defend different positions in the map adds an amazing tactical twist as players fight to control different bunkers. I cannot tell you how many hours I've poured into this game, but one thing is certain - I still haven't poured eno

What started as a Counter-Strike 1.6 community map called de_cpl_strike created by Michael "BubkeZ" Hull, would eventually become the de_mirage known today when it was altered in 2004. Valve would later remake the map for the launch of Counter-Strike: Global Offensive . This version has been featured in every CS:GO Major Championships to date and has consistently been in the top 5 most played maps in both casual and professional play since source 2 engine

While the future for the game is bright, Counter-Strike is a franchise that loves to pay homage and respect to its roots. As such it is one of the few, if not the only game that has remained mechanically identical since its inception. This familiarity extends to the maps that for some have surpassed 20 years of active competitive play. So, the best way to pay respect to these maps is to rank the best Counter-Strike: Global Offensive has to of

Currently, Valve has a bunch of updates in beta right now for the current version readying for full release and I can only hope that's just to keep us at bay while they work on a sequel. Until then, I'm waiting for the original to get Mac support so I can get back in on Steam for

Monkeys prove to be creative and clever, but they can have trouble showing this at times. They'll be more suited for a first-person shooter like F.E.A.R. since they might not thrive in an online environm

The game is full of both stealth-based and puzzle quests. The cut scenes were as good as any traditional RPG's. Plus, the game is full of ANIMALS, like the tough half-man half-pig, Pey'j. His battle cry was 'Jambalaya!' How can you not love
