Need for speed Hot Pursuit Demo!

Need for Speed Hot Pursuit's demo arrives on the Xbox Marketplace and PlayStation Network for two weeks starting October 26th, giving you early access to Criterion Games' latest high-octane action racer, which Games Radar says "could redefine online racing forever". When you download the demo, you'll also receive 500 bounty points to put toward advancing your Cop and Racer careers when Hot Pursuit hits stores on November 16th.

In the demo, you'll get a chance to try the revolutionary Need for Speed Autolog system, an in-game social network which tracks your performance against your friends. Speaking of which, adding one of your friends to your Autolog friends list will unlock a new event in the demo called Roadsters Reborn. There is also a Cop event where you'll tear up the tarmac on Seacrest County's majestic mountains, trying to bust as many Racers as you can.

World of Warcraft Cata review

World of Warcraft

(Cataclysm)

Review

After a 2 year gap, and a long awaited expansion finally WoW Cataclysm beta is up and running and I have had the luxury of getting to the game early, the news about Deathwing tearing up the land of Azeroth to much for a WoW player like myself to pass up on. 

After starting up the game and loading up my character I see that the game has not changed much it was never going to but fans of the game since 2005 will be happy to know that the game is going back in time to the “good ol’ days” of vanilla (original world of Warcraft) were equipment had to be earned not given and boss’s are hard and not some push over that players can attempt to brag about.

Yes of course there are significant improvements to graphics water has a new graphic entirely and actually begins to look like water rather than a puddle of pixels and the whole new story plot they have thrown in to keep us players interested actually seems like a story rather than some bad guy that we just wanted to kill to shut him up (Lich King) Deathwing actually sounds and looks like a “cool” endgame boss. The new dungeons actually a hurdle and the long awaited heroics of Deadmines and Shadow Fang Keep to satisfy the tastes of old level 18 dungeon lovers.

With an all new level cap of 85 and the 2 new races Worgen and Goblin how can the players that have tried to leave the game in the past and came back in wrath of the Lich king, and have done so again not come back, I mean who doesn’t want to play as a werewolf, in anything be it an mmorpg or not, and goblins with their go-karts as mounts.

So with new skills new mounts and the all new guild leveling system designed to bring players together and stop those all annoying guild hoppers new graphics revamped Cities, new bosses and new races. I am happy to give it a 8/10 the only things dragging it down being the lack of diversity and creativity in amour and weapons.
