Top of the mountain!





          A Brief History Of Computer Games 2000-Present!


Halo: Combat Evolved sparked the opening of a grand explosion of life for me (Halo fan), The 2001 Bungie produced 3D first person shooter, Was a sensational hit, It's multiplayer, Certainly showed potential for the new age of computer games with the early xbox (2001) being released Microsoft quickly snatched Halo as a launch title, The small team of students at the time jumped at the opportunity and so the legend was born.

The halo universe sparked up much interest into the halo universe with it's multipurpose experience of driving shooting flying and sniping halo acquired a notable fan base.





Although i don't play this game and i personally hold quite a disgusting view towards those who 'worship' it, There is no denying the culture and life that has been created in this vast MMORPG of World of warcraft 2004. Warcraft saw many extension to the franchise including commercial advertisements featuring Mr.T popularing the game certainly for a lot of people in my neighborhood but at the same time loosing them to it, Blizzard has created an exceptional title that at the time re-wrote the laws MMORPG's for the better and shaped the future it at the same time!






DELTA SQUAD!

These fabulous four are delta well, Ti used to be there but.. well.. don't ask. So gears of war 2006 by the beloved Epic Games, Provided a new feel of gameplay of gorey chainsawing action of the 'locust'
invading from the depths below, You play Marcus fenix the leader as he defends his home, The game was a breath of fresh air with a fresh way to kill, Making use of intricate cover systems player find themselves navigating and co-coordinating a team with brave shotgun 'duel's' online!




Then. Nintendo came out of nowhere and sold over 10 million more units than the xbox 360 and totally gave birth a whole new market, fitness. The craze was insane, Under every TV in the country, Whether there was predominantly either an Xbox or Playstation, there wasn't a little Wii to accompany it. After being released in 2006 it's launch title 'Zelda Twilight princess was a massive success and was the key to the wii's success the shakey joysticks and wiggly analog sticks held in both hands prompted you to get out of your armchair this arguable kick started the whole generation of mums on balance boards and kids throwing wii remotes at there telly!




My word. Red dead redemption (2010), Quite literally the most humble game I've ever played, This intense story driven game has been bringing players to their knee's under the hot sun in this Southern delight, Created by Rockstar (&North) I can't tell you anything more about the game, I'm in awe of spoiling it's heartwarming story, To put it into perspective i played this game on it's release in 2010, and even now as i am writing is, I am still listening to it's hour and half soundtrack in excitement, Which even surprises me.
