Quake 3

Quake 3 ( 1999 ) from ID software is first person shooter game . The game has plenty of levels , many different maps and many powerful enemies . In the game you have many guns and weapons like : rocket launcher , plasma-gun , rail-gun and many more . The rules are very basic : you have to get 30 points , every kill give a point and every death takes point. The game has 6 tiers ( group of 4 levels ) every tier have their own enemies and maps .

My impressions from the game : Quake 3 is average game , the game has good graphics but the graphics are simplistic.
There is no real story it is just battle . In first look the game is interesting but when you play you feel that the game is boring and simple not realistic battle . I don't like the style of : scary music , black sky , gloomy atmosphere , monsters enemies and  violence . 

   Tips and tricks :


Always move don't stay in one place .
When you have Rail-gun find good position and shoot on every enemy who pass near your shoot range .
Always take bonuses like : armor , health ,  quad damage and teleport .
Automatic weapons like : chain-gun and plasma-gun are good in close range and fast moves , 
but other weapons like : rail-gun and rocket launcher good in long range and when the enemy stand .

Need For Speed Set !

News !!!

I will review the legendary " Need For Speed " games ( EA games ) !! 

                                                    The new game Need For Speed Hot Pursuit 

Stronghold 2

The Stronghold 2 is a real-time strategy game which takes you to Middle-Age Europe. There are plenty of options and levels in the game. Some of them are peaceful and others are more war-time. Stronghold 2 describes in a very unique way the life of the lord in his castle.

My impressions of the game:

Stronghold 2 has very good grapihcs with amazing details. In every level you don't have time to rest and there are always unpleasent events keep happening. Contrary to other games you have to create weapon in order to train soldiers. But mercenary needs only the gold. In this game archery units cannot do any harm to buildings only to soldiers. You can setup different kinds of pitfalls for your enemy. You can buy free zones in the villages.

Tips and tricks:

Instead of surrounding the village with the wooden wall I'd recommend to use stone.

Build towers in the wall and send archers to defend the town.

Make sure you have enough soldiers of any kind on the wall not to miss assassins or thieves.

Always try to keep your population high and act immediately to rise it in case of any problems.

Decrease taxes if you have enough money.

Age Of Empires 3

Age of Empires 3 is a classic real-time strategy game. The period shown in the game is from 16Th to 18Th century in colonial America. You need to choose from eight homecities (Britain, Spain, Portugal, France, Holland, Russia, Germany and Turkey) to play with their colonies.

My impression from this game:

The game is done with much of investment. The graphics are very nice. The missions are well thought and interesting. The story is intriguing. I liked that in the series there's ability to use editor to create your own levels. Each country has its own kind of units and buildings.

And now the time is for a few tips:

1. How do I start in a free play? I send two workers to gold, two others to collect food and three for collecting the wood. The one worker stands by. Then I begin to build two houses and one market. On next stage I start to train workers. When the resources are available I will train six workers. While doing this I explore territory with explorer and start to collect treasures. I keep on exploring until I have enough resources to upgrade for colonial age. When I am in the colonial age I build baraks and stable.
