Tanki Online is massive multiplayer video game that involves you becoming a tank and challenging/fighting other people’s tanks across the globe. You can customize your tank by going to the shop and paying for upgrades with the crystals which you earn from battles. There are different types of battle modes you can choose such as: deathmatch, team deathmatch, capture the flag, control points, assault, rugby, solo juggernaut and finally team juggernaut. For some of these battle modes you will need to have a high rank (so your level needs to be higher).  If you haven’t got a high score,  you can just do a classic deathmatch until you have achieved a high enough level.

The Shop: 

In the shop not only can you customize your tank but also upgrade it so it becomes stronger. This can give you an advantage in the game so if you were to upgrade your defense and attack the other players in your game would find it much harder to take you down. But for me it would be very easy. You can also buy something called turrets.  These are the things that are on top of your tank and shoot different types of weapons.  Examples of this are lava, ice or even fir.e These can also be upgraded.

Maps:

Finally, when you would like to go into battle there is a voting area on which map you would like to fight on.   You have three choices; the one with the most votes is the one you will be battling on.

I hope you give this game a try.

Stranger Things is an extremely famous TV Show, which was created by the Duffer Brothers. If you are interested you can watch this on Netflix.

There are a total of 3 Seasons of the show. A brief explanation of the show is that a portal was somehow opened in the American town of Hawkins.  This portal was known as the Upside Down. Unfortunately a monster was released from here called the Mindflayer,which is a shadow like creature that infects people’s minds, controlling them in order to infect other people.. However, a girl called Eleven is born with a special power allowing her to move things with her mind. She is the only one who can close the portal (aka the Upside Down). This is continued further on into the series of Stranger Things series 1, 2 & 3. 

I am also looking forward to the next season (S4),which will be coming out in 2020. Netflix has already released a teaser trailer for season 4.

I guess you could call this a rebuttal, since my mate Sofia has decided that F-Zero, some dead game whose last game was released 15 BLOODY YEARS AGO. Yeah, that’s right Sofia. Mario Kart is simply better.

I think that being theoretical is what caused Sofia to be this WRONG. And that is why Mario Kart is made for fun. SOFIA, I’LL GIVE YOU A GRAND IF YOU SEE ME IN 500 YEARS RIDING A 700mph CAR. You don’t find coins on the road, but neither do you see green balls that electrocute you either.  Also, when in heck do you find cars with wings. WHEN IN HECK DO YOU EVER SEE A MIDDLE-AGED MAN RIDING A BLUE CAR WITH WINGS, SOFIA? All in all, Sofia’s arguments are complete C O D S W A L L O P and therefore my argument is irrefutable evidence that Mario Kart is indeed better than F-Zero.

On 28th October, Woojin decided to leave SKZ (aka Stray Kids) due to personal reasons. The fandom STAY and multistans were traumatized as they thought the day would never come when his contract was permanently terminated. 

Who are Stray Kids?

Stray Kids is a KPOP band that started in 2017.  The band consists of 9 members but since the angel left there are now 8 members left. 

Why he left and will he ever comeback?

Well, nobody knows why he left SKZ except saying it was for personal reasons. He was removed quickly from the official website of the company, SM entertainment. Some say that he has been kicked out but this is merely rumour.

BUT there could be a chance that Woojin could make a new fresh start still doing his career as  a K-POP star.   There is hope he could join a new company, since SM entertainment treats their stars poorly, or even go solo.

We will have to wait and see what the future holds for Woojin.

You have played regular turn-based RPGs before. All of them, except Earthbound probably, have anime characters. Now you can ditch the anime characters, and have your friends (and family, if you have one of them…).

You can be a wizard. Or a knight. Or a princess. Or a cat. Or a tank. Or a cook. Or a FLOWER. You can be anything. But you have to have friends. Sorry to disappoint some of you, but you have to have friends to play. The Dark Lord is bored so he steals everyone’s faces. Their literal faces. And a random kid named Olivier (or whoever you are) decides that they are the chosen one. Epic.

Then you add a friend to the game. You design their face and what they look like. Then you’re good to go. And you need 15 of them for a standard playthrough, and that’s not counting all the other characters in the game. 

The music is reminiscent of Danganronpa, using human vocals in some songs. The music usually reflects the mood of the current scene. It’s usually really chirpy. 

This game is good. Great actually. And it’s on 3DS. Shame Nintendo took 14 years to take the opportunity to make a game like this.

7.5/10 Sick Game

As Harry goes into his 2nd year of Hogwarts more trouble is stirring, muggle-borns are being petrified by an unknown being, yet the teachers know what seems to be going on. 

Harry finds a book which seems to belong to “Tom Marvolo Riddle” He decides to write in it (I’m not entirely sure why but sure, let’s go with it.) and he gets at reply. 

Shockingly, he thinks its a good idea to keep talking to this strange being locked inside of a 50+ year old diary, who could be a killer, and he then gets pulled 50 years into the past to when the Chamber Of Secrets was first opened and killed a girl.  This girl later became known as “Moaning Myrtle”, who was in the first movie and would later star in the next few movies, and almost cause the school to get closed down. That would petrify you. 

The new Defence Of The Dark Arts teacher, Gilderoy Lockhart, claims to be able to find the Chamber Of Secrets, so the most logical thing to do is to make him go fight the hideous beast that lies beneath, but he thinks he should bring the “Famous Harry Potter”, not to mention, Lockhart being “an extremely strong wizard” and “can fight almost anything” is complete and utter baloney!

The film is a little different from the book, but which is best?  That’s up to you to decide!

F-Zero- The best racing game.

You probably haven’t heard of F-Zero, well this is because the series was discontinued in 2004, which was 15 years ago! This is before trash games existed, like Battle Royale. F-Zero is a great game, this is because of the futuristic-aesthetic and the futuristic style of music. 

Why it’s better than Mario Kart.

Yeah, Mario Kart is great and all, but F-Zero just has a better soundtrack, in my opinion. Another point is that it’s more realistic, because if you use too much power, the car will break down and it will be game over. However, in Mario Kart you collect coins and are there coins in real life on the road? I think not. Also, you do not break down in Mario Kart and if you go off the road it isn’t game over, but in F-Zero it is.

Finally.

In my opinion, F-Zero is just better because it is teaching kids how to drive unlike Mario Kart. The soundtrack is just better and it more realistic. WHEN DO YOU SEE A REAL LIFE CLOCK STAGE AND PEOPLE BOUNCING ON MUSHROOMS IN CARS IN REAL LIFE?

I know, I’ve destroyed you all with facts and logic.

I thought that Crazy Frog Racer was the most horrible thing to have ever come to existence. It still is, but this game could be worse. But that’s what THEY say. Everyone takes the mick out of it. But not me. I am here to shed light on this hidden gem, and to express my eternal love for the pinnacle of human creation: Wild Animal Racing.

Wild Animal Racing is, like I said, the magnum opus of gaming as a whole. After 50 years of gaming, Paul Bird has finally stepped out of the shadows to deliver the greatest thing ever. This game features the sickest characters in gaming: the hippo, the giraffe, the rhino, the elephant, and the lion. This extensive choice of characters delivers a sense of refreshment to the usual suspects when it comes to regular racing games such as Mario and *shivers* Captain Falcon. 

The game features 4 cups. The Roads, The Magical, The Rally, and The World Tour, featuring such classics as Holland and Egypt. This provides an awesome experience for your friends, your friends’ friends, and your ex-step-dad Frank that comes to visit on Thursdays to argue with your mom. And maybe Uncle Joe if he comes back from Mexico after being deported. Alternatively, you can play with Uncle Joe if he has it on his 2009 Toshiba! This game has split-screen and online so you can play with everyone, including your ex.

The graphics are just a bit bad, but this is overshadowed by the amazing unlockable movies, including a disco featuring the cast of characters. Amazing, truly amazing.
