Medal of Honor: Warfighter
From what I've read the missions in the game are party based off of real missions that two former special forces soldiers offered about their fellow soldiers, the missions they participated in across the globe, and strategies they would employ to fight terrorism. They took all that info and synthesized the events into the lives of Preacher, Mother, and Voodoo the characters that are in the game. This game adheres closely to first-person shooter conventions. Except corridor battles, turret sequences, and on-rails vehicular chases. Sad part is that this game won't be out until October 23 so there a long way to go, but if you love war games and I know most gamers do, also if you have played the other Medal of Honor game and loved it then you should get this game. I find it interesting to see how they really put those true events into place in the game.

Epic Mickey 2: The Power of Two
In this game you have a familiar character to help you along your journey which players can now play two player. Also the dedicated camera team set an ambitious goal of allowing players to experience the entire story without having to touch the manual camera controls. This game pretty much begins shortly after the conclusion of the first game. Everyone is rebuilding their homes until a earthquake hits the town and the Mad Doctor appears saying he is a changed man and wants the citizens to nominate a hero to help him fend off the approaching threat that caused the disaster. Oswald the Lucky Rabbit offers to assist him and takes off with him. His girlfriend Ortensia and the gremlin Gus seek out Mickey to help. Though not much is said about where this game will go, but players will visit themed Disneyland parks that have changed radically over the years. Another thing is this time when you paint an area or remove an object with thinner, the changed will still be there when you return. You might be able to go to old areas, but the creators are encouraging more free-exploration and with Metroid-style level design that will leave some areas inaccessible until you gain new abilities or keys. Junction Point Studios and Disney interactive have all hands on deck to make this the most memorable Mickey game ever, but this game doesn't come out until the fall.

The Amazing Spider-man
That's right folks there will be a new Spider-man game coming out June 26 close to when the new film is coming out July 3, but there will be on spoilers actually the events in the game are an epilogue to the movie. A few things have been upgrade in this game if you have played any of the other games. In this game just like in the new film it takes place in New York City where there is more room to roam around. If you have played Spider-man 2 you remember the web-swing, but now they took that step further thanks to the new web rush mode. With it players can slow down time and survey Spidey's environment through the eyes of his mask. When in this mode, yellow silhouettes of him appear on whatever surface or object you happen to be looking at. The Developer Beenox during the presentation demonstrated how it could appeal to fans of Shattered Dimensions' stealthy Noir levels. Sometimes if you don't want to encounter enemies many areas feature environmental objects that can do the dirty work for you. There will even be side missions when Spidey is chase by the police and you have to dodge bullets and peppering the windshield with blasts of webbing, but players can end the chase by creating a web net between two buildings and flinging the car onto it. In my opinion I've always loved the Spider-man movies and the games. This game sounds and looks pretty cool so if you are a Spider-man fan then I would get this game.

Risen 2: Dark Waters
Alright gamers here's a new game coming out this month on April 24, Risen 2: Dark Waters. From what I read this game will make you laugh out loud at the dialogue's take-no-prisoners bombast and druken smartalecy or something like that can't say the other word; on a level you would never experience from a game before. Despite the apocalyptic low-fantasy setting, this game's vibe more closely resembles dark European comedies like Bruges than the archetypical hero's journey format that RPGs almost invariably follow. This game isn't an open world in the vein of Skyrim, though like the original it takes place in relatively large sandboxes that offer a sufficient illusion of freedom. Also the process here features choice and consequences in terms of angering or befriended characters and factions, obtaining unique rewards, and opening or shutting the doors to other storylines. The biggest issue about this game has to face between now and lauch is a stiff combat system that gives the player such a small toolbox especially early on in this game where you apparently have the combat training of a middle school chess club president so I guess we have to see how that worked out. Battles are decided primarily by the stats of yourself and your opponents with little input from your tactics or skill with a controller. Well all I can say is that if you enjoyed playing the first Risen game then you would really enjoy this one too.

The Walking Dead
That's right guys they are turning the TV/ comic series The Walking Dead into a game which is coming out this month. The main protagonist in the game is Lee Everett, a convicted felon who escapes a prison transport as the zombie apocalypse reaches critical mass. Throughout the game you will meet different characters who you can have in your group of three. In this game you can interact with your group members and answer their questions. Doing so will determine how they will react to you in certain situations. Also on objects you will get certain options like if you click on a door it will give you an option to open it or if it's lock to use a key. This also applies to certain situations like if the zombie called the babysitter is crawling after you and you're on the ground you can have the option to kick her in the face. I tell yeah this game looks so awesome and it comes out this month I so can't wait to get this game.

There will be new enemies that threaten the galaxy and some familiar foes return. An unexplored land awaits discovery, though it is far more unusual than a normal planet. Keeping with the promise established by over a decade of multiplayer innovation, Halo 4 also introduces a remarkable new vision from bring players together to play, and more importantly, keep them coming back week after week. I so wanna get this game it looks awesome and to all Halo fans out there this is what you have all been waiting for, but they only thing is it's supposed to come out on a holiday, but it doesn't say which holiday.
