Yes, it’s that time of the month again. The Guestlist Network is here to brighten up those boring nights at home by listing some of the best and newest games available for you to enjoy. You probably can’t wait any longer, so let’s move on to the list!
Crysis 3:
If you’ve been a fan of the previous Crysis games, you have probably been waiting for the release of Crysis 3 for a while. Players take on the role of Prophet once more as he returns to New York to complete his revenge mission. However this time, the city seems to be taken over by an encased Nanodome, created by the corrupt C.E.L.L Corporation. Within the Nanodome, nature has taken over. Where buildings and highways use to make up the city, waterfalls, forests and canyons do now. Seeing how the Crysis game saga is known for its great visuals and detail, this concrete jungle is sure to offer the player an amazing visual experience as well as nice gameplay. There have been some comments about a lack of character depth and little innovation of the game, but if you’re a fan of the previous Crysis games and just care about the pure gaming experience, these should be minor flaws. So start gaming and pick up Crysis 3!
Gears of war: Judgement
Despite to what you might expect from a new game,’ Gears of war: judgement’, actually takes place before the events of the original gears of war trilogy. In this game, you will be taken back to the most defining event of the game saga, namely ‘Emergence Day’. This game will be set on dealing with the events’ immediate aftermath and joining the Kilo Squad, fighting its unstoppable enemy. Seeing how the game has enhanced its multiplayer functions, cinematics, colour scheme and graphics, this game is expected to turn out greater than its predecessors. Its creators have even labelled it as being one of the best looking games within the saga. So, there is definitely a lot to be expected with this one. And it will sure be fun to find out if the game holds up to its promise! Release 19th March.
Starcraft 2: Heart of the Swarm
Yes, finally the new instalment of the Starcraft 2 saga is upon us. With the release of Heart of the Swarm, which is set to be the expansion pack of the previous game ‘Wings of Liberty’, this game will focus on Kerrigan, also known as the Queen of Blades, and her exploits in seeking revenge on the person who allowed for her to be abandoned on the planet Char, namely Arcturus Mengsk.
The story is based 2 years after the epic Wings of Liberty campaign where we witnessed Jim Raynor’s struggle with the moral choices of trying to save the woman he once loved, fight the Zerg swarms and keep the Terran Dominion at bay. Now it’s time for Kerrigan to take control of the Zerg once more, but this time you want to make Arcturus Mengsk pay for his betrayal.
The game features more Zerg mutations than before, epic story arcs and improved game mechanics, which are sure to deliver an overall good user experience that most diehard fans are going to love. Release 12th March.
