Dead Space is a third-person action/horror game developed by EA Redwood Shores. Electronic Arts released the game on October 20, 2008. We have made and released more than 10 game play videos for this game. Unless it’s a good game, we wouldn’t make so many game play videos. Anyway, let’s find out how this game works.

First of all, let us tell you how the story of Dead Space evolves briefly. The character that you play in this game is Isaac Clarke. He is onboard the USG Kellion. Other people onboard the USG Kellion are Zach Hammond (the chief security officer), Kendra Daniels (computer specialist) and two more crew members. Their mission is to locate USG Ishimura and to find out the cause of communications blackout.

Electronic Arts released Command & Conquer: Red Alert 3 in North America in October 28. The game was developed by Electronic Arts Los Angels. The game screen of Red Alert 3 is quite similar to that of Command & Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars, which Electronic Arts released for PC on March 26, 2007.

Watching the introductory cinematic movie, you will find out that the Soviet regime is about to fall. Premier Cherdenko reveals to General Krukov that he’s been working on a top-secret mission for the past 12 months. A time machine is almost ready. Dr. Gregor Zelinsky is in charge of developing it. Despite Premier’s direct order, he hesitates to test his time machine. Anyway, they will test it. And they will return to the moment when Albert Einstein was making a speech at an international physics convention in Brussels in 1927. When the Premier touches Einstein, the course of the history will be altered for good. Old enemies are now gone. But they have a new one. It’s the Empire of the Rising Sun.

Playing Fallout 3 on Mac Boot Camp Mac

Fallout 3 was developed by Bethesda Softworks, a game developer of a hit role playing game The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion. Fallout 3 debuted in North America in October 28.

It’s true that we released the first game play video of Fallout 3 more than a month ago. Let’s see. Whatever the character name is… I named my character Thomas. Anyway, when he was 19 years old, his father disappeared. His friend Amata says he escaped from Vault 101. Thomas follows in his father’s footsteps and escapes from the Vault. Then he arrives at a small town called Megaton. After visiting a clinic and talks with Doc Church (local clinic’s doctor), the game ends.

This Fallout 3 game play video starts at the very scene where the first one ended. Thomas goes to a local church building and meets Mother Maya, who gives him an important clue about his father’s whereabouts. Another man Thomas runs into says he remembers his father. Then this man tells Thomas a very disturbing story about his birth. Thomas thought he was born and raised in the Vault. At least, that’s what his father told him. And this version of his birth is not true?

In the meantime, Thomas meets a man, who calls himself Mister Burke. This mysterious man wants to hire him. For what? Umm… I guess I shouldn’t spoil the story. Anyway, town sheriff Lucas Simms won’t be very happy if he finds out what Mister Burke is planning to do here in Megaton. If you do tell him, you will cause a big problem. Perhaps, somebody is going to die for that. Should I tell the sheriff?  Continue reading
