League of Legends

League of Legends (Also known as just League) is a free to play game on the computer that I just started playing this week. It is extremely popular with millions of people from all over the world playing it and League has even become a eSport (electronic sport). League is a real time strategy game but more specifically a M. O. B. A. (Multiplayer Online Battle Arena). In League there is two team each with five players and the goal for both teams is to destroy the opposite teams nexus which is at the opposite side of the map in the heart of the enemy base. To get there players can fight their way through one of three lanes or through the jungle. Usually there are two players who go in the bottom lane, one who has a lot of attack damage but not very good defense (ADC) and another player to support those weaknesses (Support). There is generally one player going in the middle lane (Mid) and one player going on the top lane (Top). Lastly there is one player in the jungle getting the team buffs. In League there is over a hundred champions each with unique capabilities and attributes that you can play as. League has a lot more to it such as turrets, minions, gold, crafting, and items. Overall League is extremely fun and addictive however the free to play aspect can be a little annoying because they want you to buy things and the learning curve is very high. But it is definitely worth trying especially because it is free.

Star Wars Battlefront

Star Wars Battlefront is both first and third person shooter set in the Star Wars universe. It was released November 17, 2015 and published by EA. I got it a while ago and have played it many times on the Xbox. Battlefront has been criticized  for its lack of content but its high price tag of 60 dollars. While I do agree with these complaints I can't help but like it because I'm a huge Star Wars fan. Battlefront has amazing graphics and sound that look and sound like they came out of the movies. In the game you get to play as either a rebel or a storm trooper as well as some heroes and villains such as Luke Skywalker, Han Solo, Darth Vader, and Boba Fett. There are many different game modes in which the rebels and the empire play different roles. For example in walker assault the storm troopers defend their gigantic walker while the rebels try to stop it. In battlefront you can also customize your character, get power ups and gadgets (star cards), and buy different blasters with in game credits earned in matches. In conclusion I enjoy Star Wars Battlefront and while it is not the best game out there and it is not for everyone I like it and have fun.

3 Cause Just

I have a new game called Just Cause 3. In Just Cause you play as a leader of a rebellion against a dictatorship. To fight against this dictatorship you must liberate their towns and bases by destroying all the military assets in that place. (billboards, fuel tanks, speakers, police stations, etc.) Your character, Rico Rodriguez, has a lot of tools at his disposal such as guns rocket launchers, vehicles, a parachute, a grapple, and even a wing suit. One of the most fun things to do in the game is to just mess around with the over exaggerated physics. The game also has a gigantic map and great looking graphics that you can wing suit around on. There's also a lot of creative destruction to be had with the grapple hook by pulling things together in unique ways. In conclusion I think Just Cause 3 is a great game for people who like single player content and who also like having fun by just messing around by blowing stuff up.
