How harmful are video games?

Games

As much as we love reviewing video games on our blog, sometimes it’s important to look at the serious topics relating to video gaming, and this question is one that gets asked a lot. It does depends what you mean by ‘harmful’. In many cases, video games are educational, but they’re also fantastic when it comes to relaxing and diverting your mind, and sometimes this is healthy for children. After all it’s not just adults that need to take a break. That said, the amount of time in which children are allowed to play video games today is rather worrying. There are some children who are spending all day at school thinking about the games console, and they’ll switch it on as soon as they arrive home from school. This, I’m afraid is not healthy, and as soon as there are signs of addictive behaviour, children should not be allowed to play video games until they can control it. When children eat sweets too often it’s bad for their health and playing video games is much the same, they should be played in moderation.

Tekken 7: Everything you need to know

Games

We all know Tekken, it’s the famous video game franchise that’s being going strong for decades, and you’ll be pleased to know that it’s not going away any time soon. We’re focusing this blog post on Tekken 7 as it’s the ninth upgrade but the first to use unreal engine 4.

The game is focuses on 1-on-1 battles and allows the player to execute artistic attacks that cause 30% more damage than the usual attacks in the game. Power Crush is a smart feature, which enables the player to attack even while under attack! With an attractive interface, intelligently designed levels and a mystical game world, you have to give this a try.

The most attractive part of the interface is the ability to keep things clean. Namco did a great job of adding to the typically minimal design whilst the mysticism of the scenery provides an entertaining backdrop while you’re wreaking havoc on your opponents with the use of the Power Crus play! Overall when you take into consideration what has previously been released by the Tekken franchise, Tekken 7 does a great job turning things around and definitely brings something new to the table.

Batman: Arkham Series.

Games

Batman: Arkham City is a brilliant action game that captures the role of Batman. Even if you are not a fan of Batman, this is a must have game. Batman Arkham Asylum was released in 2009 for the Playstation 3 and Xbox 360. The game became popular quickly because of the new darker vision it had for the Batman universe, and gamers and non-gamers alike loved seeing Batman shown in this light. Arkham Asylum was created with the Batman comics in mind, and all art direction and final character creation sticks closely to what the Batman comics have been portraying for many years.

The entire prison is opened up for Batman to explore through as the Joker puts his most deviant plan into place, releasing every inmate in the prison. As the game progresses, players explore more of Arkham Island, discovering secrets left behind by the original founders and secret areas. The prison is brought to life in all its glory by the developers, meaning players can swoop down from high rooftops and hide on gargoyles within certain parts of the building to scare enemies before finishing them.

The combat in the game is incredibly satisfying. Players can beat up criminals with relatively easy controls, with all combat being mapped to one button. As they advance and take down more enemies they gain experience points to spend on upgrades for Batman such as armour and new gadgets. The impressive range of gadgets available are all taken directly from the comic books, meaning fans of Batman won’t have to put up with a Batman from the future.

The story of Batman Arkham Asylum is fairly simple, Joker plans for Batman to take him to the prison and releases all the inmates. He then plans to use Venom, the substance which gives Bane his strength, to transform all criminals on the island into hulking monsters. Players go through a long and arduous journey to finally defeat the Joker and stop his plans, and any fan of the dark knight will find a lot they can appreciate in the game.
