Walking Dead Season 2 - Preview


Get ready for more tears and more walkers...


SPOILERS FOR SEASON 1 OF WALKING DEAD

Written by Callum Munro

Hey guys its been a while since Telltale games pulled at the heartstrings with their Walking Dead game, and now finally season 2 is upon us.
Im not even going to care about spoiling the end of the first season because if you haven't completed it then you obviously dont care about anything that is important in life.

Obviously as you all know, Clem has to kill Lee in a shocking turn of events that concluded the first season with a bang.
Now, continuing on you control her in the second series.
It will be very interesting to see whether the things you said to her at the end of the game will affect the second series, i think the last thing i said to her in my playthrough was Keep that hair short, however I think the other options were Dont trust anyone or Find a group, something along them lines.

Walking Dead: Season Two has literally just come out on steam within the past couple of hours and mine (Due to crappy internet) has just finished downloading, so without further ado, I am going to delve in to the first episode.

You can buy the entire season for £18.99 off of Steam as of now, and you can also buy it for £15.99 on the Playstation store. It isn't released on Xbox until tomorrow, but I can imagine it will ocst around the same as the other platforms.
If you are buying it, be sure you have your old save as I have heard it is vital to have a more emotional experience.

My review will be up once i have finished Episode 1.

Thanks for reading. love you all

Blog update - Apologies and PS4 scores

Hello everybody sorry for the delay in posts, i have had a lot of things going on and I have been working a lot.
ALAS.
I am back and will continue to post as regularly as time will let me.

First things first..

PS4 Reviews

Unfortunately with me being away and that, I haven't been able to post reviews for the games that i promised I would.
To sort of make up for it, I am going to post them here in summarised versions revealing the scores and the verdict paragraph.

Battlefield 4 (SinglePlayer)

Concept - 6/10
Visuals - 9/10
Gameplay - 9/10
Sound - 8/10

~ Battlefield 4 is a solid entry into the FPS market with explosive game play and visuals, let down by a forgettable and run of the mill typical shooter story.







Sound Shapes (PS4 version)

Concept - 9/10
Visuals - 9/10
Gameplay - 10/10
Sound - 10/10

Sound Shapes is beautifully crafted, blended expertly with delicate and clever musical input, plus controller breaking difficulty to create an excellently designed platformer, that will keep you interested and give you a toe-tapping good time.










Resogun

Concept - 8/10
Visuals - 9/10
Gameplay - 8/10
Sound - 9/10

~ Resogun is a fresh and fun approach to the arcade genre, with beautiful visuals and great sound.
Unfortunately it falls short with its overly easy boss battles, it's gimmicky co-op mode and lack of game modes at the moment. 
Nevertheless Resogun is a joy to play and is a great PS4 launch title, free on PS plus.






Fifa 14

Concept - 8/10
Visuals - 9/10
Gameplay - 7/10
Sound - 8/10

~ Next Gen Fifa is looking better than ever with the new EA Ignite engine, however it seems as though it is still work in progress with dodgy animations and buggy physics. 
Also no love for tournament mode in this next gen port which is a shame.
