VERY MEDIOCRE GAME! Just Cause 4 has you playing again as the one and only Rico Rodriguez. This time you play in a beautiful fictional South-American country called Solis. The main villain in JC 4 is Oscar Espinosa. Not much is said about Oscar which really upset me. I know that the Just Cause games have never really been strong on the story side, but the main villain only appears in TWO MISSIONS DURING THE ENTIRE GAME. There are no memorable or cool characteristics that he has. He is just a bland, boring and an oh-so forgettable character dare I say villain. During Just Cause 4 you have to fight and defeat Oscar’s private army called the ‘Black Hand’. Out of all the Just Cause games the Black Hand is easily the hardest enemy Rico has to face. They acquire special technology that allows the enemies to became invisible, carry bulletproof shields and bulletproof armour. The open world of Solis is beautiful to look at, but can feel empty and dead at times. Some new grappling hook enhancements switch the gameplay up, which is great. Guns feel more punchy and heavy but explosions feel less responsive and glorious than in the previous Just Cause games. Overall, I was a bit underwhelmed with this entry. It is by no means a bad game, but the lack of interesting characters, a memorable villain and less responsive gameplay does hurt the game’s reputation. With the new addition of tornadoes, sandstorms, thunderstorms and blizzards you would think that it would make the game better, but it simply doesn’t. The sandstorms in Mad Max look so much better than in this game. The storms just don’t look impressive at all. You can really see that they rushed this game. The game can be glitchy and ugly at times. For some reason the cutscenes are just unbearably ugly and unfinished. There are no pistols present which also sucks. Although, I do think that the last mission was better than in Just Cause 3. It’s an alright game, but a sad, rushed cashgrab for a Just Cause game. I was expecting better. Again, this no way near a bad game, I just think that if they would’ve ironed out the glitches, improved the story a bit and didn’t rush the game as much. Then we would’ve had a much better Just Cause game. Overall rating: 12,5/20

Very good modern war film! Don’t watch Fury expecting it to be a Hollywood war movie with exaggerated violence, an over abundance of CGI or a complicated story. Fury is about an American tank crew behind enemy lines in Germany. This movie is shifted near the end of the second World War. Although the story is simple quite simple, the character development and brotherhood is what really makes this movie great. Fury let’s you know from the get go that war is hell, you see the nazis hanging their own people by the neck, you see American soldiers committing war crimes, people being burnt alive ,dead animals, dead corpses riddled with bullets and limbs missing also kids are shot. Fury has absolutely no time to hold back. One of the movies biggest strengths are the realistic battle sequences (most of them are). Especially the last battle was very epic and emotional as the tank members die one by one until there are few left. I was really impressed by Shia LaBeouf’s performance. It shows you an emotional, young and traumatised soldier. Overall this is a great movie with a fantastic cast and an amazing soundtrack. 8,5/10

Good, but why a love triangle in a war movie? Enemy At The Gates is a movie portraying the legendary Russian sniper, Vassili Zaitsev. Listen, the movie is pretty good during the first 30 minutes but after that the movie dips HARD. The very first battle scene of the Russians attacking the Germans is pretty good. The see innocent young men being mowed down by nazis and by there generals. It was brutal. But after that the movie drops hard in boredom. There’s this German sniper that came all the way from Berlin to kill Vassili. The movie is based of the real life event of the cat and mouse game of the snipers. In real life, a fire fight took Vassili days of patience to wait until one of the two moved or revealed there position. In the movie the sniper battles take max half an hour. This movie is (kind of) an insult to Vassili Zaitsev and the horrible thing that happened in Stalingrad.

Good stealth, bad sniping game. I know for a fact that most of the Sniper Elite players play this game because of the brutal slow motion kills, I don’t blame them they’re cool and brutal. I personally think Sniper Elite 4 is a stealth game than a sniping game, this might be an unpopular opinion but that’s fine with me. If you bought this game expecting a high-quality story you’re going to be disappointed. I don’t think the main focus of this game is story, it’s gameplay. On the other hand though the stealth is REALLY good but at time stupid. For example you kill a Nazi from behind cover, a few seconds later a soldier comes across the dead soldiers corps instead of standing behind cover or trying to find you, no instead they just walk around in circles aiming there rifles in all directions. Also I think it’s very stupid that instead of having a suppressor you need to obtain suppressed ammunition. Close quarters stealth can be fun and tricky though. Also every mission is VERY long and works as some kind of mini open world map where you sometimes have to complete a task before a timer runs out. I would say you have two ways to complete your mission #1. Guns Blazing #2. Stealth and patience The best way to play is stealthy, overall I give this game a 7/10

I watched this movie in the theatre and I was NOT satisfied. I know that this movie isn’t a reboot of the original but it’s still awful. The new Chucky design looks ugly af, for some reason the thought it was a good idea to make Chucky a robot. I’ve never been a huge Child’s Play fan but if you’ve watched the original you will instantly be disappointed be this movie. 5/10

Far Cry New Dawn is basically Far Cry 5 with a better story and a cooler antagonists. Far Cry New Dawn sets itself 17 years after the events of Far Cry 5, the ending of FC5 is a massive nuclear explosion caused by Joseph Seed. After the nuclear exchange know as “The Collapse” survivors try to rebuild the community in Hope County. The main villains in FC New Dawn are Lou and Mickey to me they are not as threatening or memorable as Vaas or Pegan Min but they’re much better than Far Cry 5’s antagonist (Faith, Jacob, John and Joseph Seed) SPOILER! You can’t kill Joseph Seed in FC5 instead he makes a return in New Dawn, and yes you can kill him in this game. As far as weapons go it’s pretty standard, no major additions or “ground breaking” weapons. Also it really bugs me that literally everyone has health bars, it just feel wrong. Overall this game is alright I give it a 7/10

Very fun game, but can get boring and repetitive at times. Just Cause 3 is an open-world game where the whole fictional country (Medici) is in the hands of the main villain Sebastiano Di Ravello. You play as a character called Rico Rodriguez who must liberate the whole country with your fellow rebels and clear outposts such as: villages, sea-docks, airstrips ect. The game is fun for about 4 hours, after that it just gets boring. There were times that outposts were too far away, so I just got carried away and started blowing cars up. The coolest thing about this game is the you can destroy almost anything: bridges, gas stations, giant satellites, huge explosive tanks... Behind all the shooting, explosions and chaos is a well crafted open world game with a good enough story to keep you playing. Overall I give this game a 7,5/10

Ultra violent, but oh so fun to play. The graphics in this game are very good for today’s standards. The small boss fights sprinkled here and there are also cool and fun. When you’ve finished killing a strong or important enemy you’ll be rewarded with an ULTRA violent finish move. I would like if they added some sort of stealth mission or something along those lines. The relatively short but fun campaign is top notch. And I even got some fun out of the multi-player mode. Overall I give this game a 8,5/10
