MW3 and Duke Nukem As First Person Shooters

When I was just a kid, playing around on my mom's computer, I remember the absolutely terrible "video games" she brought back home from school for me to play and "educate myself" on. Back then, that was what a PC was for; learning and research, not video games. But one day my friend snuck over a new game I had heard whispered about in the elementary school halls. All I could really gather from it was something about aliens, bubble gum, and kicking ass. So we started up Windows 95 and he let me play Duke Nukem 3D, and it was the first time I had laughed, felt scared and been excited all at the same time while playing a game. By this time, the N64 was out and very popular and Goldeneye 007 was still the king of FPS predecessors, but Duke Nukem blew everything I knew completely out of the water.

15 years later, the rumored sequel to Duke Nukem 3D, Duke Nukem Forever, was set to be released and though excited as I was, there was just no way that any game in history could survive over 15 years of hype, hysteria and rumors. I can now say, as a twenty-something college graduate, that I have played all the way through Duke Nukem Forever (something I would love to go back and boast to my 8-year old self) and sincerely enjoyed it.

Does that mean that I, with any good conscience, would advise anyone out there to buy this game? Definitely not. If you were a Duke fan back in the day, maybe you might enjoy the one-liners and throwbacks to the old games, so maybe the nostalgia will be worth the $50 price tag. On the heavier other hand, the graphics and design are crude, mismatched and incredibly dull; the gameplay is a mind-numbingly boring point and shoot exercise; and, for what it's worth, the game didn't take long to beat and certainly shouldn't be very hard for anyone.

From playing Duke Nukem when I was young to playing Call of Duty today, my intensity for gaming has still been the same all along, perhaps even more intense than it has ever been before.

First Person shooters have always been my genre of games above all others. First person shooters like Duke Nukeem, MW3/, and Battlefield 3 are at the top of the list in the world and in my world.

First-Person Shooters: how to play better

First person shooter games are fun and games. Many players the game FPS like call of duty and Battlefield Online with friends. In fact, they are websites that hosted the competitions with cash remuneration for first person shooter game. However, if you are not a professional gamer, chances of winning these competitions are small.

Here are some tips for how to play better.

Analyzing everything

The next step, after you meet any of the game is to analyze the grounds. Consider every movement, decision, map, weapons, etc. Best players return very special attention to fine details in games that they play. From the perspective of the shooter, the game should have a thorough understanding of each layout maps and hot tracks in each map. There are some statistical data and analysis available to display players ' routes may take any of the maps for different games.

You should constantly seek opportunities to quickly analyze it. There will be much better player, if you can greatly increase their accuracy. You can put down the sight of the aim directly at your opponent on the first attempt; You should not adjust its target.

Use the game

Each of the first person in-game contains features that many players do not use. For example, in the call of duty, each player has the ability to assign multiple weapons, perks and killstreaks class; However, some people have only a single class. One class did not prepare the player for different situations. If the helicopter is in the vicinity, and you do not have a class with the Launcher, homing, you cannot shoot down the helicopter.

Some weapons are more effective in different situations. You should always have classes on the situation of the sniper, for large maps with plenty of hiding spots; small arms, for small maps of many close combats quarter; and attack rifles for medium sized map, which requires precision.

Best players are in a position to fully exploit all the features that the game has to offer.

Watch the other good players

It is one of the easiest ways to learn to play better observance of the other players. Take notes of the decision, which they effect, the weapons they use, and the routes they take. If they keep winning matches with other online players, then you know that they have something that you can teach.

Alternatively play against other players to good, as you can. They will force you to improve your skills in order to win against them.

We hope that these tips will help. When it comes to online games, you are the harshest critic. You should always be critiquing their skills in the game.

The best way to get better at the game is to play lots-and the best way to do this, rent lots of games. Frenzy games site is awesome game rentals-check out.
