A Game Called Hitman Absolution

Agent-47, doing exactly what he is meant to do, be silent, be quick, be agile, and yes of course, be bald. But we wont be going to the bald part and will only stick with a little bit of game theme of agent 47 in ‘Absolution’.

The game play in NO way is easy. It is very interactive i play all my games de-facto at hard mode, but again this franchise was something that I was new at.

Yes I have not played any of the previous hitman games, it is a franchise of ‘Edios’ that has been around now for quite some time. The first Hitman came around in the early 2000′s I have not played any of them. In fact ‘absolution’ was amongst the more simpler ones if compared to the one’s that came in the early 2000′s. And I completed this one on a PS3 and not a PC.

A good game which has the ability to absorb your conscious and decision making, both shaping your mind and altering decisions as casted by the subconscious, that help’s you identify your modus in the said mission. That’s why games give you a rush that helps you focus better on your daily life. Life is all about decision making and so is every game.

So YES ‘Hitman- Absolution’ is a good game! One will only enjoy this game if he gets the fundamentals of the game right.

I am mostly an FPS and TPS gamer and stealth games are not really my forte. But i truly enjoyed being the Agent-47 because, it is a good game. The stealth game play is very good the character that has been made is something that I found to be sometimes funny because he is perfectly bald. But again the game play.

I initially used to stumble in the missions, I would not be as stealthy as the game would be expecting in the hard mode. I thought having guns is sufficient in executing the missions. And honestly they are not. It is the ‘FPS’ instincts that keep triggering me and I had to again get hold of them because you know, the subconscious is at work behind the umbra.

AND the best weapon of this game is a simple fiber thread.

The fiber thread helps you quickly choke the enemy and along with drag the body for a quick disposal. It is the perfect weapon for a quick stealthy silent kill under the trained hands of Agent-47.

The missions, the maps, the character placing, the sound effects, the textures, the gamma, the themes, the farms, the rooms, the alleys, the aisle, the stairs, the court room, everything exceedingly well thought of designed and detailed.

The stealth when added with silence if executed with a ‘good timing’ the ‘purist’ for this game would be in for a delight.

Hitman absolution was amongst the less liked one of the ‘Edios’ franchise and I am yet to play the new one on PS4 and soon I will surely play them someday because we at Deltatrack are all about absolute gaming and loving good games.

A Game Called TITAN FALL-2

I purchased this game with a confused state of mind, I was aware that this game is a from a big banner and is a great seller BUT I was new to this franchise and I had absolutely no idea what TITAN FALL -1 was about.

An EA game and in every way it moves, proceeds and develops like any other typical American sci-fi hollywood flick. 

An alien planet - Check | War on alien planet - Check | Humans fighting humans - Check | Humans fighting robots - Check | Humans getting inside Titan Robots - Check | Titans fighting other Titans - Check | Weird dinosaur type creatures - Check | Dystopian world - Check | Steam Punk freaky sounds - Check.

The protagonist or say ‘you’ are in a “James Cameron - Avatar” picture like scenario where you have to survive in severe hostile environments all alone or with your Titan or without your Titan and complete the list of objectives to help your unit win and proceed.

The way the story develops is not something you should use your brains at, because it progresses, develops like a typical Hollywood flick hence mind application is least required and only requirement is the ability to appreciate  the graphics and the game-play.

The ghost runner mode is something that was a different for me and I truly enjoyed completing the running missions. It is all about timing and it was also something that takes a bit toll on your mind but after a few mistakes and falling in the burning depths of the alien planet, you will be able to overcome with an improved performance in the running missions.

The guns in this game are not the regular guns as used in other games, there are many guns which are like regular guns but have a futuristic feel to it. The whole weaponry has a futuristic rendering to it, some gamers may like them some wont, some guns were good some were just crap and in the middle of a fight I was gun hunting when I was stuck with a crap gun, use a gun twice before ensuring you want to proceed with your mission with it.

The sound effects are really nice and realistic especially when the fights are in the assembly line where you have to find and rescue your Titan, for me it was the most gripping and the best mission. 

The embarking/ disembarking to a Titan was by the square button (for PS4 users) and it often happened that in middle of battle my player used to disembark which was quite a buzz-kill especially when surrounded by huge armies of robots and soldiers. 

However this doesn't change the fact that the game was good but it could have been better, the game play was small for my liking and by the time I was fully accustomed with the game play the game reached the final mission. A little extended game play would have only added more points to this crazy, adventure shooter game. 

Over all a nice futuristic combat game where man and robot are intertwined as one to make a super soldier and the missions are well balanced between managing yourself and your Titan and how both can communicate to help achieve their mission objective in the middle of chaos, time warps, raging current, fighting alien dinosaurs and fighting the boss titan of each stage.

A game called RED DEAD REDEMPTION.

BEING John Marston, being both law and outlaw, being a survivor a fighter, a warrior a person, who will only get to meet his family if he becomes the outlaw for the government and eliminate as per whims of the government. And to have your family back you will have to shed blood for the government in the wild wild west!

The sceneries the canvas, the terrain the bushes, the rocks the cuts, the sand dunes the guts, the mudland’s the cracks, the huts the shacks, the forest the wilderness, the deceit and the plain old ugliness, the horses the guns the moonshine and the skunks. The family the foe’s, a journey until played no one knows.

The rendering, the periphery, the outlines, the cross fading’s, the weather the sounds, the birds their chirps, the clouds the thunder the mesmerizing wonder. 

The characters, the human greed, the thirsty needs, the traps the scandals, the rivers their purity with humans and their shiver.

The environment the atmosphere, the bounty the wanteds.

Gameplay-  The user controls of this game are easy and not very complicated and not only is this game clean and simple but also the whole decision making of the ‘end player’, helps the protagonist ‘John Marston’ or say ‘we’ in deciding a lot of our destiny, we can also be the good guy and earn respect amongst the world or be a nasty bandit and make the world fear you. Your wish!

The world will respond to you as you will be responding to the world. Rockstar games simply out did themselves and created a masterpiece unlike any.

I played this game on my Playstation3 and took my respective time to complete this game because in a busy city life one needs to make some time out to play a game but one also needs to ensure that they should take out decent amount of time to play a master piece and with the whole playstation experience it was something magical.

The Coming Dark Future

Have you ever heard terms like ‘hydraulically-actuated degrees of freedom’ ‘sensate hands’ or ‘articulated sensor head’ ??! No you haven’t because you are a regular wise sane person and unlike me you don’t end up digging such terms in the name of grammer building and structural philology. 

Naah........I am just kidding these terms are actually from the future, in absolute honesty a very dark future where mechanised arms and motions control the civilisation or maybe a kind of future where even matrix with a ‘Neo’ is a reality as much as is iRobot starring ‘Will Smith’ is. A future where the above such terms are addressed for a daily mechanical functioning. A future where we may not know what is really happening until it is too late! .

The above terms if once again phrased with todays geopolitical situation then maybe the reality would be reachable in a not as in imagined way. There is a theory that states that the ‘middle east’ war crisis especially ‘Iraq’ has always been used as a fertile terrain to test a lot of DARPA’s new projects.

Okay. Whats is DARPA ? 

It is the American [USA] wing of Pentagon called, Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, DARPA for short.

DARPA has been funding ‘Boston Dynamics’ for a decently long time.

Okay. What is ‘Boston Dynamics’ ? 

Boston Dynamics is a company that researches and creates ‘Robots’.

Okay. So what.

‘Boston Dynamic’ has been acquired by ‘Google’.

AND

‘Google’ has now become ‘Alphabet’ , which aims to take a big bite in the world arms and ammunition market, by selling robots.

YES ROBOTS.

Like this one 

The [Atlas] robot you as see above was mainly planned for search and rescue missions where putting a human life at risk would not seem appropriate. These robots are currently at a prototype stage where they have been used to basic chores and simple movements like in this video below!

BUT you know that since you are talking about the USA there has to be more to it, there has to be a way in which the never ending world crises can be further increased YES why else do you think the pentagon would be funding it ?

USA has learned from ‘Iraq’ and ‘Afghanistan’ that putting soldiers on ground ends up causing a lot of ‘life loss’ plus the added world wide humiliation and therefore to prevent the same comes a robot. To the rescue.

Does this sound fine to you!

It does not to me. Because, DARPA robots have been configured with a self governing and learning artificial intelligence. 

The simple reasoning would be that what if DARPA taught one of these walking steel and armored robot to use a gun for a war and what if they get tired of participating in the American never ending war AND one day they decide NOT TO DO as they are being told to, or what if they get hacked by Kim Jong un

OR maybe if the Chinese hack it, wouldn't that be like iRobot all again for the USA ?!

What if USA itself unleashes a million of such robots on another country in the name of oil or maybe world order! 

These robots are also not covered under international war laws because laws apply to humans and there has NOT been any amendment or international treaty to accomodate these walking steel soldiers. 

All i can say as of now is that the near coming future is very interesting and also disturbing but again disturbing is the most appreciative form of entertainment therefore the world order needs to be re-thought and implied to suit the needs of the upcoming spectators who let the mainstream media flourish.

IT is an understood human thesis that what is made for boon is always used for destruction.

Remember the ‘nuclear energy programs’ for an infinite source of energy to power your homes BUT hey lets make a goddamn bomb out of it too, you know just in case.

Remember the ‘drones’ for ‘surveillance and disaster rescue programs’ but hey lets add a few missiles on it too, you know just in case.

Remember the media to educate the mass, hey lets just give them a script to fool and mislead the mass, you know just in case.

NOW, since the ‘Americans’ developed robots for war the ‘Russians’ would not be prevailing behind anywhere, the Russian media has stated that they are developing robots for their upcoming future space program but again we all know that future space programs can wait especially when uncle sam wants to wage some robot wars, therefore Russians have been doing some their own steel and chrome works in their land of snow and bears and have been progressing quite quickly if compared to ‘Boston Dynamics’ but are not quite there yet.

 Remember folks if you can train it to use a drilling machine you can train it to use a Gun.

A Game Called Tekken 3

Tekken as we all know belongs to one of the worlds biggest gaming studios 'Namco Bandai' this is a ‘Playstation-1′ game and in absolute ALL criteria it is simply hands down the worlds best fighting game EVER MADE.

I mean ‘Street Fighter’ series is good and so is ‘Mortal Kombat’ series but when put in comparison with Tekken series , not only do they feel weak and un-realistic but also less aggressive and complicated on gameplay.

Talking about Tekken 3 this is where the Mishima family is hosting the third Iron Fist Tournament and all the famous players are to participate.

The best part about Tekken is that every player can beat ANY player it is all about that perfect timing and how well are you as a player able to execute the moves and keeping your combos ready. My personal favorite is 'Paul Pheonix' the funny punk biker and 'Forest Law' whos fighting style is entirely based on Bruce lee fighting style.

THESE TWO !

Not only are the fights very realistic in Tekken 3 but the reversal can be timed so perfectly that the moment one player feels that he has won the round all it needs is a well timed reversal to not only steal the almost won round by the player but also defeated and humiliate with no remorse.

The fighting environments are simple , open , colourful and amazing AND non interactive the background score is also perfect for a fighting arcade game and non repetitive. Everything about Tekken 3 is simply AMAZING.

Tekken is an absolute boyish fighting arcade game where every player is well researched with it's own unique attitude , fighting style and moves plus on completion there is a theater ending for every character sometimes funny and sometimes dark.

The moment when you feel that you have mastered tekken , that very next moment you don’t know that you can get beaten up by someone who can time a move in a way you never thought was possible.

Tekken 7 is expected to come out in 2016 for PS4 and is also made using the legendary 'Unreal Engine' but I already know that it wont even be half as good as Tekken 3.

A game called ‘Wolfenstein’ The New Order.

The year is 1960 the Nazis have won the world war and now this planet is a NAZI turf where non-nazis are simply exterminated or organ farmed or tortured.

YOU are Captain ‘Blazkowicz’ yes the same Blazkowicz from ‘Wolfenstein’ and ‘Return to castle - Wolfenstein’. YES True , this game is ONLY for the mature and adult gamers and simply NOT for the FAINT HEARTED or easy relaxed gamers. 

YOU have to be and make yourself sure and LET THE BLOOD SHED SHED AND SHED. And also be prepared to fight some INSANE GIGANTIC MAMMOTH Nazi machinery.

YES Behold its , Wolfenstein the New Order.

THE game itself starts at a very rough point and you are inside a warplane that is hit and not only do you have to extinguish the fire but also use the belly turret and protect the whatever left of your burning plane.

YOU crash land and in Nazi belt which has some huge big metal hounds known as the ‘Panzerhund’ that are beautifully crafted from the creative minds of ‘Machine Games’ and ‘Bethesda’ and are they are there to simply chop your fragile human organs with no remorse and in an exceptionally gore blunt brutal manner.

Like this one !

The ‘New Order’ surprisingly covers a few aspects of not only first person shooter but also a third person shooter aspect and entirely based on a survivor game spirit , not only is the protagonist / Blazkowicz / or say we , are thrown in some insane , dark , tough , disturbing environments but the basic agenda is to survive the impossible situations that we are thrown into and then ALSO FIGHT and WIN some really really insane , demonic high tech NAZI WAR machines.

Here like this one !

YES Imagine beating that and being on a constant RUN throughout the battle with a machine such as the above , also the Sprint key ‘L3 for Playstation’ will make your left thumb pretty damn sore.

Also I forgot the mention , Imagine fighting machines like the above on a groovy , jumpy , screeching , thrilling , heavy metal guitar riffs that had the electro vibe just right to back the amazing spine chilling horror sounds while you SURVIVE , BATTLE , RUN , DUCK ,RELOAD , HIDE , AIM and REPEAT till you take down the impossible NAZI Machine and sometimes to make your inside screams you have to battle two or even three such huge machines with a survivor attitude and fueled for some serious insane Nazi revenge.

The stealth gameplay and knife rounds are very well executed by Machinegames and it does not appear repetitive like the one in Far Cry series.

Surprisingly ! The story line , is very very sweet with , memories , comma , awakening , surviving , fearing and last and the most important part of the entire theme being ‘HOPE’. YES HOPE and it helps one understand hope in their own respective manners.

Imagine surviving in a Nazi owned , ruled , controlled London.

THIS Game may not be for the faint hearted but surely makes the end gamer love it in every bit at every point and with each progress the unfolding of the story , life , love , friendship is beautifully done and deserves a clap with such crisp , sharp graphics. I wish I could tell the END but it was brutal and beyond what I had ever imagined , ending a rough game at an even rougher note is some thing that had me distracted for the remaining day left.

Here let me put it in four [4] words for you.

GRIND GORE GUTS & STEEL

A Game Called ‘Brothers’

Brothers a tale of two sons , is a game where two brothers are on a quest to find an ancient herb which can heal their ailing sick father and the herb only grows on that one magic tree in a land far far away beyond the dark and ugly mountains , beyond the vast blanket of snow and the path taking you there goes through the ancient catacombs , filled with trolls to tribes. 

Yes all this awesomeness , with a very simple controller layout leading to a brain boggling gameplay. 

The graphics thanks to the famous ‘unreal engine’ and the third person camera viewing angle is very well made and perfectly executed also it further makes sure that the player never misses or loses any detailed aspect in this game or say this remarkable game.

The game starts at an emotional note which leads to the quest and the quest is filled with very nice and well researched obstacles , situations , puzzles which are not only fun to play but also carry a very interactive environment and something about the whole game play is so soothing and calming. You really will have to play it to believe it.

The two brothers Naia and Naiee , make sure that you are totally engaged in the awesomeness , sereneness of this game and eventually after the first few stages , both the brothers will grow up on you making you feel what it really is to be on a quest.

The older brother is the stronger of the two and can pull levers or boost his younger brother to higher spaces, while the younger one can pass between narrow bars. The player progresses by manipulating the two brothers at the same time to complete various puzzles, often requiring the player to manipulate both brothers to perform differing functions .

This game is one of those games that can be played like a poem , Yes true , but only if the timing part is played perfectly. The story and script are very nice and different however the game could have been made a bit more tough on some notes but again it is a game PG-16 , so i suppose the targeted audience is a bit different and younger than me.

As of January 2015, the game has sold 800,000 copies. Brothers have also won the award for best xbox game at the 2013 VGX award show, in competition with Grand Theft Auto V, BioShock Infinite and Tomb Raider plus it also won the ‘Best Game Innovation Award’ at 2014  ‘British Academy Game Award’ BAFTA -2014.

Brothers is an incredible game developed by Starbreeze studios and published by 505 game. THAT IS A MUST PLAY if you want to see what gaming is really all about and don’t want to get your hands dirty by playing a first or third person shooter game or RPG games for that matter.

A Game Called , Zoo Tycoon.

I am not really a big fan of ‘strategy games’ and neither of that camera view from top gaming format but there are lot of strategy games that I have played and I have also perfected them to the point that I have beaten my other gamer lads on their own strategy game turf.

Many strategy games belong to other various sub genres like war games [red alert , boom beach] , magic games [world of warcraft , diablo] and business simulation strategy games like [rollercoaster tycoon and zoo tycoon].

SO YES about this game called ‘Zoo Tycoon’ which was developed by the ‘BlueFang’ studios and published by ‘Microsoft’.

This game was launched around 2001 when I was a school going lad who had borrowed this game from a friend and had installed and forgotten about the game in my PC.

I truly tried playing this game but was JUST not able to grasp the main theme , objective and was also unable to manage the whole world only through the top view camera , which is the default camera viewing angle in all strategy games. PLUS in zoo tycoon there are so many things to take care of , that in the first go I was like what does one really do with this game.

BUT then again everything is better understood when given a second try , be it life or be it a game and this second try of mine got me so hooked up to this game that I was as glued up on my monitor looking at a my own designed , land scaped , self created fully functioning zoo.

This game is about making , managing , running profits by successfully handling as well as taking care of a zoo with a large amount of daily visitors and about whom you have to see that their happiness level of every guest is high or increasing , plus not only the zoo animals are to be taken care of but you have to make sure you provide and create their appropriate habitat for animals that keeps them happy which in return will make the zoo visitors happy.

From all animals to zoo conditions , guest mood , sanitation conditions , zoo cleanliness , habitat cleanliness , recreation facilities , kids store , kiosks to restaurant , I mean EVERYTHING has to be managed by you via the view from top camera mode and after some time of having played you will notice that not only are you beginning to think like a zoo owner who runs a successful business [well at least i did] but even in daily life it helps you understand and accommodate so many points that a person / citizen will feel or possibly question in daily walks of when you next visit a zoo or some other public facility. 

The ultimate goal of the game is revenue, players must provide for visitors by building food/drink stands, sanitary facilities, picnic areas, and an aesthetically pleasing environment. Higher revenue is generated by keeping both animals and visitors happy. The game features two modes - Scenario and Freestyle. The Scenario mode puts players in control of a preset scenario in which they have to accomplish multiple objectives within a time period. The Freestyle mode differs in each game, but usually leaves the player free to build a zoo from scratch however they see fit.

To keep a zoo animal happy you have to make sure you provide it its required habitat and it also helps you understand the vegetation required the way a cage or exhibit is to be designed in accordance of the said animal / animals in it. Which at times does get a bit tricky and needs to be managed well.

Zoo Tycoon is a FUN game that teaches you alot about the animal kingdom and also the hardships that it takes to keep running a business like managing a zoo with adhering to the profit conditions that ultimately run your business. But again its a strategy type game format and there is nothing much to do after a point when you have managed to understand the gameplay and its theme.

SU - Pak Fa , T - 50

YOU want to talk badass! Lets talk about being Badass!

The above titled is the most incredible and state of the art reply to another state of the art air superiority [5th generation] advanced warfare system .

Okay let me clear some clouds here and help you better understand what the aforementioned title is all about.

THIS is what I mean by Air Superiority.

THIS stealthy, super maneuverable, having super cruise capability, incorporated with substantial amounts of composite materials and possess advanced avionics such as active phased radar and sensor fusion and powered by ‘Saturn AL-41 Turbo FanJet Plant' is the Russian answer to the much hyped and talked about American 5th generation fighter jets such as the US , Lockheed ‘F-22 Raptor’ and strategic stealth bomber the ‘F-35’.

Not only is the Russian jet war friendly but also very sturdy , agile , flexible and can perform acrobats unlike any western fighter jet for that matter and further also designed to take a lot of hit from the enemy artillery and still manage itself to be airborne and fighting.

The Sukhoi design bureau or say the Russian style testing makes sure that the sturdy aspect of this advanced air warfare system is not compromised and is quick in its repair mechanism after mission and even quick to re-report for the next mission.

The Sukhoi T-50 has the electro-optical system which includes the 101KS-V infra red search & track turret mounted on the starboard side in front of the cockpit. This sensor can detect, identify, and track multiple airborne targets simultaneously making it not only a fighter jet but a comprehensive weapon system that is un-matched to any of the current prevailing western fighter jets.

The American F-22 and F-35 are also equally advanced and better in some points BUT when it comes to air warfare the only problem is that both the American jets are very fragile and cannot take a slight hit of the enemy artillery PLUS after every mission they take their required maintenance time and are not considered to be war friendly and neither quick to report for re-mission by various defense experts from all around the world. And also VERY VERY VERY expensive.

The over sophistication has made both the fighter jets very delicate and fragile also the unit cost of F-22 alone is 66.7 Billion USD and the F-35 project has already costed 1.3 Trillions USD of the American tax payers money and has not managed to enter the active service due to some or the other technical issue.

As you can see both the American jets are very smart to look at and stealthy too and also the US defense has been very hesitant in disclosing their full potential because the complete disclosure will not be able to explain that WHY both the projects were so very expensive and still not appropriate for an air to air combat because of them being so frail and neither very agile and with limited air to air combat flexibility.

Whereas the Russian jet was ONLY designed for war , air to air combat , dog fights , air superiority , stealth and also to SUSTAIN some damage [its a war after all] and that is where this magnificent super flexible Russian 5th Generation scores above all the prevailing western fighter jets and with better thrust vectoring that has been perfected by Sukhoi which makes it truly the un beatable fighter jet ever made.

I mean just look at that mean machine which has badass written all over it and also the two Red-Stars made on each wing assure you that this machine is the finest example of the Russian aviation , is trust worthy and is made ONLY for combat and war.

The PAK FA is intended to be the successor to the MIG-29 and SU-27 in the Russian Air Force and serve as the basis for the Fifth Generation Fighter Aircraft (FGFA) being co-developed by Sukhoi and Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL) for the Indian Air Force [variant].

A game called ‘NOLF’.

NOLF , YES! that is by far the best game I have ever played.

OH! I forgot to mention ‘NOLF’ stands for ‘NO ONE LIVES FOREVER’ , It was a game that I had brought and played on my Pentium-3 and this game is about more than a decade old.

It is one really cool , interactive & brain teasing game with a lovely looking female super spy by the name ‘Cate Archer’. Plus there are a lot of weird looking gizmos like the nail polish bomb to fancy guns and an even amazing background theme and a nice retro music score that just goes so perfectly with the whole setup giving the player such a fantastic complete secret agent environment.

This game came around 2000 -2001 and as a kid I brought a pirated CD [sadly] from a the famous Indian pirated games Mecca called Palika Bazaar located in the heart of New-Delhi. 

Not only did the game turn out to be very fine, crisp, good on script as well as with fantastic detailing but is also a must play to help your mind think out of the box and as the story unfolds it constantly keeps gripping you with surprises and shocks.

Apart from Cate Archer being a cool looking spy she is also a sharp shooter , master of covers & disguise and a very very fine looking petite stealth warrior.

This game is truly a brain therapy especially if you wish to escape the daily hassles of life and living. And about the true authentic awesomeness of this game , you have to simply play it to believe it.

It is further followed by ‘NOLF-2′ and ‘CONTRACT J.A.C.K’ in the coming years and they both are also equally awesome and based on the same lines as the first NOLF is. But about them maybe some other time.

ALSO......this game has a lot of really funny and comedy moments that keeps surprising you with some or the other funny breather and helps take your mind of the recent massacre that you have just proudly performed.

The lovely looking retro virtual Cate Archer is in real life based on the model names Mitzi Martin.

ONLY If you have played [first person shooter] games before , then only get your hands on this not so famous Master piece. 

Eurogamer states that the game has "dated enormously but survives well", and that "you simply couldn't make No One Lives Forever today. You couldn't because it would be too long, require far too many assets, and most significantly of all, risk all the cost of development on a comedy game – a genre that no longer exists.

No One Lives Forever is a first-person shooter video game with stealth game play elements, developed by Monolith Productions and published by Fox Interactive, released for Microsoft Windows around 2000 - 2001.
