Sean's Gaming Life

As you might know gamescom was this month and i have also attended this major event for 2 days, i wanted to share my experience visiting that great event daily here in my blog. Sadly this plan went into the garbage can when my hotel was forcing me to pay (a lot) for poor quality WiFi. So i am posting my experience of gamescom here a few days later after the great time there.  Day1 (Friday)  After a long drive from Meppen (Germany) i arrived at Cologne (Koln) around 10:30 i was dropped near the Messe so i had to walk not far and it took me only a few minutes to get there. Although Cologne is a big city, it was easy to get there thanks to the printed google map and the many signs that told me go this direction to gamescom. I had more problems getting in, thank to the stupid bar code on my ticket that was not working. But after waiting in line with many that had the same problem it was fixed by printing me a new one. Once in, i was startled by the size of this ...

With The Last of Us out for more than a month now we had to chance to experience the amazing story that is set in this game. But with this breathtaking experience comes also a surprising fun and new multiplayer experience. At first i would expect another Uncharted like multiplayer but that is totally wrong. The multiplayer takes its roots on the single player experience. Featuring the same stealth like combat. The basic of the multiplayer are set on 4vs4 team based matches. That are played on maps similar to areas found in the single player. Again you will have limited supply’s and only a few bullets in your clip so fighting another player can be an intense experience. But could also be over in seconds. Since your health goose down in only a few hits. So cover is the basic understanding of fighting back. Unlike Uncharted where gun running was the way to go. I like the way i experience every match. While the basic are the same. The way we all played changed even duri...

Lately i have been not that active with making wallpapers for my favorite portable console. But i don't feel the need for it. I have made nice collection in a different way than most Vita wallpapers found on the web. As you see the two top images are the same and yet so different. The left is a basic screenshot of MotorStorm Pacific Rift in Vita wallpaper size (960x544). And works as any wallpaper would do. But its a overlay on the color full dynamic background that is standard on your Vita. You won't notice this until you starting to using a wallpaper that has a transparent area on them. So now for the right one. This is as i call them PSVita Paper. Why this name?  Well i named them the same as what the application image you see when starting a game or app. And it looks like a piece of paper. Since all wallpapers are overlays you will now see the nice blue (or any other color) of your basic Vita background next to your wallpaper. This w...

With Guacamelee out for some time DrinkBox now has released their first DLC for Guacamelee. While this DLC those not include much it is a fun pack indeed and a good reason for another playthrough of the game. The DLC includes a set of costumes with combat attributes that make the feel and experience of the combat slightly different. Normally you can only play with Juan or with Tostada if you played on the PS3 version with player 2. But since the latest patch Vita user could also play with Tostada as player 1. The only difference between player 1 and 2 versions of Tostada is color. The original Tostada is pink while the player 1 version is blue. Also any costumes you use for player 2 are based on Tostada not Juan. So the difference between player 1 and 2 still exists even after the patch. The DLC also added 3 new Costumes besides the patch costume. These costumes have attributes that can make you better of worse in a certain skill. The DLC comes with the Identity Swa...

As i promised in my previous blog post here are 2 Videos from online fights that i did in P4U. Enjoy.

P4U Arrange Soundtrack EU Cover Even when i am one of the sooo many europeans that had to wait for this game to release 9 month later than the US i am still happy that it did came here. Now i could be mad and not buy the game as a response to the late release but that won't do me any good and won't do the creators and publisher any good as well. My way to show to them that they should release their games faster is to show how much i want there games. But enough about that. What are my thoughts of the game? Well there are really positive although there are still a few things i think that should have been done different. The Training mode is probably one of the best things in this game. Since it is a great way for new players to this genre or more familiar to understand the basic's of this fighter. Also this is great way to get the feel of the controls. But one thing about the controls could be startling to players is that the controls are described as like ...

Jacob Jones and the Bigfoot mystery is a Episode based game similar to The Walking Dead and is a point and click puzzle game with a similar style to Professor Layton on the DS. Its released on PS Vita, Iphone and PC. I played the Vita Version which i find the best version to play it on. But since everything is controlled by the Touch screen the Iphone version should also work nice. I normally don't play games that look kind of kiddy. But i made a exception for Jacob Jones since that game looked kind of interesting to me and its only €1,99 on EU PSN which is a bargain. So  if you have some spare PSN money left and you like a puzzle games then get it NOW! My opinion on the game is kind of split. One side of the elements of the game i really liked while the other elements turn me off. The art Style was the main reason i noticed this game. The toy liked characters looks really nice and beautiful on the Vita. The art like images seen in some puzzles ar...
