Call of Duty: Black Ops 2

Call of Duty Black Ops is another game filled with kids that have not started puberty who think its cool to trash talk. The game is no different from the others besides the new skins and maps. The game is fun to only play campaign as it is different. The multiplayer is still boring because after a while it becomes the same thing everytime. I don't like this game at all, it is my most recent and last Call of Duty purchase I will ever make.

Grand Theft Auto IV

Grand Theft Auto IV is a classic and many have played it. With the new game coming out in September as of now. This game is being played more often as the hype for GTA V increases. This game has a fun campaign that can serve as offensive to many people. With available DLC this game offers a lot of extra fun in campaign. The multiplayer is extremely fun to play with friends and just do random things. The DLC also offers more multiplayer options and cars to play with which adds more fun when the original gets boring.

While someone might have depression it is common for the person suffering to have anxiety. This effects many people because they don't live their lives in ways of spending times with family and friends. Video games relates to depression because people will avoid all contact with others and play video games. Video games could be a positive effect or a negative effect. Positive in a way of coping with the condition but negative in having the person not fight the condition and let it take over by staying from the others. If someone you know could be depressed don't be afraid to reach out and get them help.

MLB 2K13

MLB 2K13 by 2k games is another sport entertainment game. This is the most recent version and has alot of talk about what has changed. Many users have complained how this game is the same as MLB 2K12 and that purchasing this game is a waste of money. This is very similar to other sports games because there will be a similar game play style. Although this game offers some new features, it still has the same old features such as expedition and being able to create a franchise. Here is some game play from both games so it can be compared and contrasted.

Portal 2

Portal 2 by Valve Corporation

Portal 2 is a sequel to the original Portal, the game features a story mode and a co-op mode that can be played split screen or with friends on PSN or Xbox Live. The game features puzzles that can be solved with linking portals together. The story mode can be very confusing at times and hard to follow although being confused with the plot will not make the levels boring. There is a major plot twist in the game that was very unexpected and adds a very enjoyable experience. There is available DLC with more levels to complete. This game is fun but can only be played once for the best experience due to the challenge of finding out how to complete the levels. The co-op is very entertaining to play with a friend and adds to the games enjoyable factor. I would recommend this game to anyone who is looking for a challenging puzzle solving game.

Dead Space 3

Dead Space 3 developed by Visceral Games and published by EA is yet another game following the sequel of Dead Space. This game was released on February 5th, 2013 and has much hype about it. It has a third person feel similar to Gears of War.
