You probably read about the "Box of Fury, Rune of spirit, strength and magic, talking objects, within which you can fight the demons inhabiting them, about the trip on the airship between the continents of distant islands with a treasure that can be reached only on a sailboat, about weighty book of magic spells, without which the battlefield is nothing to do, about the three classes of characters, and much, much more.

Not to pardon executed. Word stresses the green words, but put a comma in the right place devilishly difficult. Embark on a long argument about what are fraught with long-term construction - could be just what? It is better to imagine that there are people who have never heard of "Stalker".

Initially, the first TrackMania seemed uncomplicated arcade racing: short-lived trip to the tracks catchy, funny "bandwagon jumping" cars and nice, but quite inexpressive schedule. In addition, TrackMania saw the light, almost simultaneously with the Need For Speed ​​Underground, around which a flash crowd of fans, not noticing anything, except his "neon" idol. When the hype about Underground has passed, the players were surprised to observe that missed an unusually amusing fun, unpretentious under the shell which hides an interesting gameplay. It would seem to drive quite a small track with a good result - what could be easier. But this principle TrackMania (plus the unusual route, reminding old-timers times Stunts) came to taste all without exception - the game is slowly but surely took possession of the minds of gamers.

But after a while the game said the company Telltale Games. And not just noticed, and shoulder the difficult burden of the publisher. Why difficult? And who is now easy to take for the spread of the game, which was created on a free engine AGS and authorizes 640h400 points? But thanks to this heroic act Telltale Games, Adventure Al Emmo wins more fans - and quite zasluzhenno.Prezhde all, it is worth noting that our E-mail something like a noble ladies' man Larry Laffer - if the recall, he also threw to the winds for love, while possessing not the most attractive appearance. However, E, in contrast to Lovelace in a cheap white suit does not seek to go to bed every female person - his desire for a more natural and mundane. In particular: to find a life partner, a family, to meet adequately inexorably impending old age. With the latter is especially bad: Emmo 42 years, and he still shares the shelter with their parents.

When you first look at the girl on the cover of "turgor" catch myself thinking that poluletet, polupadat for this half-dressed creature is on the verge between impressionism and surrealism, it is quite normal. Spray paint, scattering in all directions, at first seem to be hair, and after - splash of emotions, replacing the expression on his face. Ring at the bottom reminiscent of the well, giving birth to the idea of ​​eternity. Not every cover'll be treated with such interest.

And the strongest gesture stuffed into one movie almost all the characters and plot his own trilogy about the adventures of frostbitten rebel Alsida * Nikopol. Frostbitten in the literal sense - his thirty years of "hibernation" in Earth orbit for crimes against a totalitarian government, and then he fell from the sky, then it moved in an ancient Egyptian god Horus, more ...

Heroes of Might and Magic V: Hammers of Fate

Heroes of Might and Magic V: Hammers of Fate
I do not know whether the accident that the "episodic" model of game development became popular soon after the last episode of "Star Wars". However, you can see more interesting trend: igrodely after Lucas became much more daring to violate the natural order of the chapters of his saga. Thus, the expansion pack to Age of Empires III tells us not only the continuation of the main campaign, but also about the events that took place between the second and third of its chapters. Ubisoft is not far behind and with a revived Universe Might and Magic. First they showed us the top stories in Heroes of Might and Magic V, then its end (the end of it?) In Dark Messiah, and now we face a "continuation of the beginning" - the addon "Hammers of Fate." Without going into details of the plot, except to say that "the Lord" took a new record, "Might and Magic" is the same place as the "Clone Wars" in "Star Wars" - the action develops, the tension grows, the heroes are winning some interim victories but felt that the great achievements still to come. The script is not written in a much better than Dark Messiah, and play to find out what happened next - you want.
