Today we are once again locking and loading and getting ready to cause all kinds of destruction as we continue our Grand Theft Auto retrospective.
Grand Theft Auto 3 (2001,2002,2003) PlayStation 2, PC, XboxGrand Theft Auto 3 was a game changer for the GTA series and in gaming in general. The people at RockStar created an absolute monster in Grand Theft Auto 3 and while the PlayStation 2 was already a huge seller. GTA 3 for many people was the game that made them decide to take the plunge and pick up a PlayStation 2.
Grand Theft Auto 3 had a story where you played as a criminal called Claude, a man who was done wrong and now he wants revenge. As the first 3D GTA game, the story was not as in depth as it would later become. But there was enough of a story to keep you invested in the game.
It was the gameplay though that really blew people away. Grand Theft Auto 3 is an open world 3D game which at the time had not been seen on a console in this kind of scope (if even at all) you could pretty much just do whatever the heck you wanted and at the time this was something that was incredibly fresh and new. It offered so much freedom and gamers would spend more time going on killing sprees, stealing cars and just seeing all they could see in this massive world than they would actually playing the story!
Grand Theft Auto 3 was a huge hit on the PlayStation 2. It would be released on PC a year later in 2002 and then in 2003 a Grand Theft Auto collection would be released on Xbox that contained this and Grand Theft Auto Vice City.
As you know here at Mods R Us, our modded controllers are perfect for those who love first person shooters. When it comes to first person shooters, Overwatch is one of the very best and most popular released in the last decade! Blizzard absolutely nailed it with Overwatch and today, we want to look at why that is.
To start with Overwatch has more personality and style than the majority of other first person shooters on the market. Blizzard did a wonderful job in creating a very interesting cast of characters. Each one with their own backstory and play style, plus charming personality. It makes it very easy for a player to gravitate to a couple of different characters and stick with them.
While the characters and setting of Overwatch are of course awesome. The gameplay is the real draw here. The game modes are what you would expect. But it is the core gameplay that has sucked so many people into the world of Overwatch. It is so easy to pick up and play, but there can be a lot of depth here, especially if you are willing to work as part of a team and play your role. But at the same time, you can totally just lone wolf it and run around shooting everything you see!
Overwatch has also been awesome in regards to DLC. Blizzard has really supported the game very well and so far the characters they have added have all been added for free which is great. Plus they have these special events like Junkenstien’s Revenge and The Summer Games which make the game even more fun.
Blizzard has a monster hit on their hands with Overwatch and we really cannot wait to see what they have in store for the next Overwatch game!
Red Dead Redemption 2 Trailer
You know that here at Mods “R” Us we love us some Red Dead Redemption and we have just spent the last few hours watching the new trailer over and over again and wanted to share our thoughts on it.
First of all, it is a prequel and it sees you playing as an outlaw called, Arthur Morgan who is part of the Van der Linde gang. If that name sounds familiar it is because the leader of this game is a man called Dutch. The main who John Marston was sent to bring in during the events of the first game.
While John Marston (who is one of the best video game characters of all time) was a former outlaw who had a moral compass and was a bad guy, turned good trying to make a go of it with his wife and son. Arthur from what we see in the trailer looks to be a straight up outlaw, but as this is a RockStar game it is sure to have a million twists and turns to the story.
Not much in terms of gameplay was shown, but we did get to see some epic train and bank robberies as well as hunting things like bears and crocodiles. Speaking of which out of all the areas the trailer showed, the Louisiana style swamp looked the most intriguing.
Red Dead Redemption 2 is not going to be released until 2018 and as this is a RockStar game, we are sure there will be at least one more delay. But as far as we are concerned, RockStar can take all the time in the world as long as they make this as good as the first Red Dead Redemption.
