Metro Last Light: Both Good and Bad Endings!

In Metro games, there have always been two endings.  One ending where you cover the walls of the Russian wastelands with the blood of your enemies, while the other is the quieter, stealthier and generally passive approach.  Metro 2033′s dual endings were much more difficult to achieve, involving having to see specific dialogues between …

ELO Hell: League of Legends: This Week in ELO Hell (Week 5: May 9th-16th)

Five weeks of this “ELO Hell” League of Legends nonsense and sixty Bronze ranked matches later, I’m running into as many jackasses as I’ve had good solid matches.  When the jackass isn’t on my side, the other team is howling about reporting someone on their team…but of course, more likely …

Epic Games Donates to Operation Supply Drop’s PIXEL FIREWORKS 4th of July Care Package Drive!

There must be an hour of every day where the public relations team over at Epic Games hands out silver markers and has the entire team sign posters, copies of games and swag for their devoted Gears of War fans. This is the third such donation of signed copies of games and posters that Epic Games has sent us since Operation Supply Drop started working with them, and each time, they are a sight to behold!

Front Towards Gamer Radio “Wednesday” Traffic Chopper, Episode 171: Train Phobia

Editor’s Note: Congratulations to 7-year old Billy Wilson from Milwaukee, WI for winning Front Towards Gamer’s “Write FTGR’s Intro Page” contest from last week!  Below, you can see his rambling and poorly worded entry! Notice, he even writes it as if Quinn “Soulibon” Sullivan were the one writing it!  So adorable!

Happy Wednesday Rebels! …

Metro Last Light: Commando Achievement Guide (Ranger Hardcore)

I’m sorry, but Metro Last Light is an apocalyptic wasteland, why am I playing “hostage rescue” ranger here?  Oh, because the bandits hiding in the Metro are terrible, terrible people and probably have terrible, terrible things in store for the woman and children refugees they grabbed in the BANDITS level.  If you …

Metro Last Light: True Spartan Achievement Guide (Ranger Hardcore)

The “True Spartan” achievement in Metro Last Light sounds tricky, especially on Ranger Hardcore difficulty.  Simply don’t die during the final siege of the D6 station by the Reds? Wave after wave of soldiers, tanks and up armored goons with flamethrowers stomping onto your position? Have no fear, Shanghai Six is here!  Once you …

Metro Last Light: How to Destroy the Tank on Ranger Hardcore Difficulty!

If you’re here, you know why. During the Reds siege of D6 in Metro Last Light, they roll up in a tank!  Or a train! Or is it a tank train?  Well, whatever in the hell it is, you only have a limited amount of time to take it the hell out. …

Aatrox the Darkin Blade: League of Legends New Champion Reveal!

What is with Riot Games releasing champions that are impossible to kill with ridiculous mobility?  See also: last month’s bouncing pile of green goo, Zac?  Now, Riot Games has announced Aatrox the Darkin Blade (whatever in the hell that is in Riot Games/League of Legends lore), who uses his health like Dr. Mundo and …

Army of Two: The Devil’s Cartel: Review (Xbox 360)

I have personally always enjoyed the Army of Two series, despite the media backlash the original got over too much “grab ass” between main character mercenaries-for-hire Salem and Rios fist bumping and high-fiving while committing genocide on a grand scale. A lot has changed since the original Army of Two, but this latest iteration, Army …
