Green = Good game
Yellow = All right game
Red = Not done
FPS (First Person Shooter)
Battle field play 4 free
Combat Arms
Soldier Front
A.V.A
Genesis A.D
GunZ
Information:
Battle field play 4 free is a grate on-line shooter. The best part, its only in beta. This means a few thing. It promises that the game will be top quality upon release but it also means that for the time being it dose not have the things that some people might expect from a fully released game. Yes there is noticeable lag, not game stopping though. It also requiers a beta key to play. You get it a few weeks after you give in your e-mail.
Minimum hardware requirements:
Operating system: Windows XP or Windows Vista
CPU: Intel Pentium 4 1.7 GHz
RAM: 512 MB (1 GB on Windows Vista)
Video card: 128 MB, Pixel shader 2.0, DirectX 9.0c
Sound Card: DirectX 9.0c compatible
Hard Drive space: 1 GB
Internet connection: 256 kbit
My Rating:
8/10
Why: Truly remarkable list. It's free to play and addicting. there are some problems with it (Claymores and sniper class) that are probably going to be fixed soon. Graphics are top notch all though they take a while to get used to. Lots of fun try it

Combat Arms
Information:
Combat arms is Nexons expiration. that passed with flying colours. This game is truly amazing, the amount of guns and customizations are remarkable and the maps are well made. At one point this game used to have bountiful graphics, it still dose but then you start to compare it to other games, this game is starting to show it's age, and hopefully nexon gives it cosmetic surgery. It's also worth mentioning that this is one of the only games that allows you to capture video and upload it directly to youtube.
Minimum hardware requirements:
OS Windows 2000
CPU Pentium 3 - 1GHz+
MEMORY 256Mb RAM
VIDEO CARD GeForce 2 MX
DIRECT X Version 9.0C or later
HARD DISK SPACE 2.0 Gb
INTERNET CONNECTION Cable/DSL
My Rating:
6/10
why: Nexons seems to be missing the big picture. yes they have lots of customisation and they have really use full tools but enough is enough, in my opinion they need to get there priorities strait, they have enough guns and enough game mechanics, they need to start with the graphic updates most computer games get weekly. also there are ALLOT of hackers. Nexon said they try to fix every hack and claim to be on top of things, truth is. there not, they waste there time going after smaller hacking companies while to big ones don't even get a slap on there wrist. they do NOT release patches, its there game protection soft where that dose. you might think that's good, it's not. they don't know what types of hackers there are. Everything is fixable. Server side = Hacker proof only thing is that it's expensive especially when you have 1 million + on all the time. I do give them credit for add allot of items and always have at lease one contest going on

MMORPG
Vindictus
Maplestory
dungeon fighter
Information:
Vindictus is a DROP DEAD GORGEOUS game. it's truly remarkable on how amazing this game looks. not only is it sexy but it's also allot of fun. There are some times where I wish that the story line can be more oral but other than that this game is rich in equipment in monster battles in Easter eggs in game mechanics. This is just a wonderful game. the fishing in this game is really something. Every well done and very addictive.
Minimum hardware requirements:
OS: Windows 2000
CPU: Single Core 2.4GHZ
Ram: 512 MB
HD
Over 5GB
VGA: Nvidia GeForce 5xxx Series
Network: Broadband recommended
My Rating:
7/10
I really like the game, its loads of fun and i can spend days playing it if it let me to. I found it really annoying that you only able to go to where you can earn EXP 50 times in a week. Of course if you wish to go more, you can always buy there in game currency. I found this so annoying that after a while, no matter how much i loved the game, I just stopped playing it because I found it point less. Graphics are A++ Though that's the only reason why I gave it a 7, o and because of all the things your able to equip and do in the game.

Information:
Need for speed world is a bring back of need for speed most wanted. One of the best need for speed games out there. People including my self send hours upon hours trying to beat the long game. You can imagine how I felt when i saw this. This is the game ported for on-line play. You can race against other cars or other players you can get cased by cops and show off your ride to millions of other racer. The games graphics are amazing too. the cars drop dead gorgeous only problem is that it's no walk in the part to get to those nice fast cars. it takes a while to get anywhere in the game and that is what i think is its biggest flaw.
Minimum hardware requirements:
Operating System: Windows XP Service Pack 3 / Windows Vista Service Pack 2 / Windows 7
DirectX: DirectX 9.0c

Optional: USB Steering Wheel / Dual Analog Gamepad
My Rating:
9/10
Grate game to get away from all the COD or FPS that seem to be dominating the gaming industry. looks grate and i have absolutely no problem playing this for days, the biggest gripe I have with this thing must be the fact that it takes so long to get to that point where you have a 10 second car.

Fifa on-line
Information:
Fifa on-line is a grate game for the hardcore gamers, if you love soccer you will LOVE this game. I don't think I'm going to buy any more Fifa. Reason being EA kinda screwed them selves by making this game. Think Fifa 11 with more updates and you get this game. Ea also announced that there going to be adding any updates that come out on the xbox or ps3 for the free on-line pc version, this not only includes patches but whole game releases (Fifa 12, Fifa 13, Fifa street E.C.T)
Minimum hardware requirements:
OS: Microsoft Windows XP / Vista / 7
CPU: 1.7 GHz or above
RAM: 500MB or above
Graphic card:
ATI 9800 or above
Nvidia 5900 or above
Intel 915 or above
VRAM 64MB or above
Shader mode 2 or above
My Rating:
8/10
Made by EA, so the game is very good (obviously) the only problem I face is when playing on-line it's obvious if the other player got some in game points for his cash because they usually end up dominating everyone. Why I played it, every time i played on-line I was paired up against someone who's allot better than me and I was always lagging. I think the lag problem as been resolved but if you hate a bad matchmaking lobby then don't download the game. Ea servers only match you up against people on-line, regardless there skill level.
