Cyber Monday: AVerMedia Game Capture HD only £99

I doubt I’m the only UK gamer that thought Amazon’s Black Friday offering was a little disappointing. Whilst those in the US could save almost 50% on a range of gaming headsets, nothing came close on Amazon’s UK site. Thankfully, it looks as though Cyber Monday will have much more to offer. AVerMedia Game Capture HD: […]

Black Ops 2 tip: best anti-air class [shoot down air support quickly]

Yesterday I posted a couple of videos showing how powerful the Black Hat PDA can be, when used to combat enemy equipment or point streaks. Not so long after, I hopped onto Black Ops 2 and got thrown into a game which was nearing the end. My team were apparently content with being blown up […]

Black Ops 2 epic wall bang

Black Ops 2: my first wall bang! [DSR-50 on Express]

Every once in a while I like to try something random. Why? Because this can happen: A couple of days ago I was running around with the DSR-50 sniper rifle during a game of Hardpoint on Express. I spotted a guy on the UAV and didn’t have a clear shot, so I took a pop […]

Black Ops 2 tip: unlock gold & diamond SMG camo

Earlier in the week I blogged on how to unlock gold weapons in Call of Duty: Black Ops II. Not long after, JayEx23 posted a video showing the gold R870 MCS shotgun which suggested the challenges differ slightly depending on the gun you are working on.

Black Ops 2 best running class

Black Ops 2: Best Running Class

I’ve been having a lot of fun using this class & thought you guys might like to see it. It’s geared towards running flags in CTF but I’m sure it would be just as effective rushing in Demolition or Search & Destroy. I can also see it being fairly good for capping the B Flag […]

Black Ops 2: Treyarch say sorry

Black Ops 2 server problems: an unofficial apology

Around twelve months ago I stated that Modern Warfare 3 was the best Call of Duty game ever made. Not so long after, Infinity Ward started tweaking things and the game became unpredictable and, hence, very frustrating. One game you’d drop a guy in 3 bullets; the next you would need 10. Don’t even get me started […]
