Pants vs Zombies Garden Warfare 2

After the succes of the first Plants vs Zombies Garden Warfare game it doesn't surprise me that there was going to be a sequel and here you go, bigger and better...hopefully. It's still the same idea with third person shooting and being in direct control of one character, wether that's a plant or a zombie is up to you. But is this really something you want to play?


What's new?


Well the developers showed some new plant classes, for example there's a type of orange that can blast enemies with some type of laser (at least it looks like a laser) and he (or is it an it?) has some type of blast shield for protection. But then there's also a corn creature that can blast enemies with corn rockets and kind of fill the blaster role but with bigger blasts and probably a slower rate of fire. Then there's also a rose that has some magic abilities where the rose can turn a zombie into a goat and make it an easy target to get destroy or use some type of time field that will slow down enemies. It's a type of mage and/or support class that can make things a lot easier if used correctly.


What's Grass Effect?


At first I thought this was just a joke, I mean the whole let's make a Mass Effect joke was just too obvious. But it seems that this isn't a joke, there is some Mass Effect inspired stuff in Plants vs Zombies Garden Warfare 2. For example a type of power armor that allows someone to use extra abilities while in it, wether it's just for zombies is unknown to me but it would be a bit unfair if it was only for one side. You get this Z7 power armor for free if you pre-order the game now!


Are there also new zombie classes?


Yes you have the imp, a small zombie that has less health but some nice tricks and agility, which might be perfect for people that like to play smart and stay one step ahead of the opponent. But to keep things interesting the imp can also call in a Z mech that will annihilate your enemies and make you a lot tougher! Super Brainz is a type of zombie super hero that likes to punch plants with his fists but he also has a laser to shoot plants from a distance. Then there's also Captain Deadbeard, honestly I didn't make up these names, who is a lot like a scientist but is even slower. He makes up for that by having a sniper rifle for some accurate shooting and he can sneak up to enemies with a barrel and then explode near them.  It's crazy but if you played the first Garden Warfare game I don't think you expected anything else!

Button bashing

It seems that more and more games want you to smash on the buttons of the controller, which seems like fun but knowing that this weak piece of plastic can´t handle much it´s not the smartest way to handle your controller. In the good old arcade days I could smash on buttons, ok nothing too crazy but at least those machines had a lot more resilience than these weak controllers we have now. You have to pay a small fortune for one of them and they fall apart with the slightest bit of force you use. After smashing a couple of controllers out of frustration I learned to be careful with them, but when games force you to be an agressive button basher it doesn´t really help. Button bashing is nothing new but I do seem to see it in more and more games, even games that could easily do without this abusive way of treating your controller. Instead of button bashing people came up with the idea to press a certain series of buttons in a sequence, I first saw this in God of War which was fun. But s...

Movie Monday: Mr & Mrs Smith

There are movie that might not look good at first, when you hear about it, but once you see the movie then you know that it's a fantastic movie. What really made Mr & Mrs Smith so good was the acting of the two main stars in the movie, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie. They had so much fun making this movie that it's an absolute joy to watch the movie. Which is good news for people that are looking for a fun movie to watch! Married to a spy? The story of Mr & Mrs Smith is pretty simple, a man is a spy and marries to a woman not knowing that she's a spy too. Apparently both of them are unaware of eachothers activities until their paths cross in their spy life, which leads to a lot of fighting and explosions. It's really not the action that makes this movie so much fun to watch but it's the humour. Mr & Mrs Smith is the type of movie that shows that a movie can be ten times better when the actors are actually enjoying themselves making this movie, instead ...

Sinful Sunday: Why are you so serious?

When I play a game I don't want to be serious, I just want to have fun and relax. Honestly real life is serious enough and I don't need that in games. Who cares who wins or who loses, just have fun and that already makes it great! Unfortunately there are gamers that take certain games way too serious, so serious that they literally forget to have fun which is quite frustrating to deal with. These kind of players are so serious that they probably left the fun behind when they started the game. Sigh... Serious gamers are lame gamers? There is nothing wrong about being serious, but I think there is a time and a place for everything. When I play a game with my friends then I'm not being serious nor am I serious when I start up some random multiplayer match. Sure it's nice to win but it's not everything! Things become more serious when there is something at stake, for example in ranked matches or during a tournament. I understand that things are more serious there an...
