☆ If Only I Had The Room ...... ☆ #Retrogaming #GamersUnite

I often think, if only we had the room........

If only we had the room to buy all the consoles and computers we have owned over the years and maybe some of the ones we didn't own!

So that got me thinking, would I be able to remember the machines I had bought?

If only I had the room and the plug sockets to buy them all again!

Games Freezer - #Wired First look at the #Xbox One

XBOX ONE

So Microsoft have had the gaming world's eyes on them today in order to unveil the next generation of XBOX.

The so called XBOX-ONE is now unveiled.

In our opinion the design seems a little bulky, but hey isn't that always the way so a year later Microsoft can bring out the "XBOX-ONE Slim" or are we just too cynical here in the Freezer?

Anyway, Wired.Com got first dibs on the Exclusive first look at the XBOX ONE so click on the link and see what the good people of Wired have to say about the Big Black Box.

Games Freezer - The Not Very Current TOP 5 List of the Video Games Of 2013 So Far....

The Most Amazing Box Of Games Since Metal Gear Solid Got Stuck In Our ICE BOX!

The Games Freezer Top 5 Video Games List of 2013....So Far

 

As we near the middle of 2013 we have started to compile a list of the games we have been playing so far in 2013.

It's a list that we have compiled ONLY using games that we have actually played this year and they wont necessarily will have been released this year either.

So here goes.....

 

1. The Orange Box (X360)

   http://www.metacritic.com/game/xbox-360/the-orange-box - 
   This collection of games is a masterpiece of gaming. 
   It includes the Daddy of First Person Shooters (3 episodes) , the Daddy of Multiplayer along with the most innovative puzzler in years! 
   We managed to pick this up second hand for £10. 
   Five amazing games for £10....if you havn't already done so BUY IT NOW!
    

2. Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion (X360)

    
   http://www.metacritic.com/game/xbox-360/the-elder-scrolls-iv-oblivion
   
   
   Being a massive fan of open world RPG's we had been meaning to invest in this game for an absolute age! 
   
   
   Then one day whilst sifting through the bargain bucket in Blockbuster, there it was for £12, so we began to invest a few hours, days and weeks (and counting) into this mammoth game. 
   
   
   It's a top quality game that still looks fresh after 5 years. 
   The levelling up of enemies in line with your level is rather annoying however, the game in general is a triumph....Try it you will love it 
    

3. Super Stickman Golf (Android/iOS)

    

   http://www.metacritic.com/game/ios/super-stickman-golf 
   
   
   We were finding that there was a distinct lack of good golf games on the Android platform and then along came the iPhone smash hit Super Stickman Golf which as much a puzzle game as it is a golf game. 
   
   
   With Par 10 holes on some courses its a game that doesn't take itself seriously, but shouldn't be overlooked in any way as it grips you with its mix of tactics and good fun. 
   
   
   The power ups are brilliant and are unlocked as you progress. We paid 69p for it and it brightens up the commute into work every morning....A Great Mobile Game 
   
   
   (also watch out for Super Stickman Golf 2)

    

4. FIFA 12 (PS3)

    

   http://www.metacritic.com/game/playstation-3/fifa-soccer-12
   
   
   We hadn't invested our hard earned cash into a footy title since PES became rubbish about 5 years ago, then we played an old copy of FIFA 11 around a friends house this year and thought hang on, THIS IS FUN!!  
   
   
   So as soon as FIFA 12 hit the bargain buckets we bought it and loved it immediately. 
   
   
   Lots has been written about this game and the EA way of minor updates to the game each year rather than genuinely improving the game. 
   
   
   In this version, the developers put their neck on the line slightly by changing the defending to a much tougher system and even though it takes a while to get used to, its made the game more of a challenge, so much so that you genuinely celebrate each goal you score out loud!! (or is that just me?!)
   
   
   You never know, we like the game so much, we might actually buy the latest version! (second hand of course)

   5. Heavy Rain (PS3) 

   http://www.metacritic.com/game/playstation-3/heavy-rain 
   Wow! What a game, like nothing you have ever played before. 
   From the start you are put into a situation that is quite alien to most gamers, you are asked to brush your characters teeth and then get them into the shower, from here on in your character's life spirals out of control and thrusts you into a world where nothing seems as it is. 
   You get to play as various characters through the plot and it genuinely throws up a massive twist in the story late on.While not without its niggly parts, it is truly a genuine advancement in computer games and what we perceive them to be
   
   
   So, there it is, not a very current but a very enjoyable Top 5!
   Have a think about your top games of 2013 so far....
   Let us know your current or not so current faves of 2013
   
   

   UNTIL NEXT TIME......TRY NOT TO GET LOCKED IN THE GAMES FREEZER*!
