Mass Effect 3 special edition multiplayer tips

Mass Effect 3 special edition is one of the Wii U's best games especially online wise.  So I've decided to give six character class setups that I have found work well.  Point out though these characters are all unlockable ones and you may have to unlock one or all before using but I going to give tips in this post that can help with any character as well.

Adept: Drell
Drell has three powers and two buff stats which all characters have.  I have found when setting up any character to focus the most on one power and then lightly fill in the others while also maxing out the buffs

For the Drell I recommend going 6 points on it's reave power.  Reave steals health from enemies and gives it to you.  It also has a great ability to light up enemies then follow up with your second power pull.  When an enemy has been hit with reave and pull together it causes a biotic explosion.  Cluster grenades I have found not that effective on higher difficultly.  So only give them three points.  Your two buffs one increases offense while other defense, on the offense add as much power attack strengh as possible and some weapon damage, on defense spend all ranks on health and shields.
Weapons
I use the m-12 locust smg and the m-5 phalanx pistol, the idea is being as light as possible to have faster power use.  The heavier your weapon loadout the slower your power recharge.

Solider
Turian
Turians have two possible setups that both work well depending on your style.  First is more in your face offense with the concussive shot.  The second is being more sealthy with the proximity mine.  Now me personally I like the concussive shot style which the way you can use it effective is attack with your rifle or shotgun after hitting enemies with it since it knocks them down and stuns them.  Proximity mine is used to create traps for enemies, aim towards the ground near enemies and when in its range it goes boom.  Now on your buffs you want to focus more on weapon damage this time and as always health and shields

Weapons
The Phaeston and M-23 katana
Obviously you are going heavier here and the guns do more of your work then in the adept where it's power based

Engineer
Geth
Engineer is the class that uses tech for butt kicking and this robot character is no different.  The setup involves really one power your sentry turret.  This turret will get most of your kills for you using its flamethrower.  Boost power strengh and health and shields.

Weapons
You really can't go wrong because the turret doesn't have a power recharge like Dwell powers so can go heavy or light.
I use the Phaeston and the M-97 viper sniper rifle

Sentinel
My favorite character the Batarian
Submission Net captures your enemies then you shoot them, blade armor increases your already high health rating, and lastly shockwave allows you to do a biotic explosion to those trapped in the net.  Balance both weapon and power buffs and i know broken record but health and shields

Weapons
I go light i use the light weight assualt rifle M-15 vindicator and the M-12 locust smg

Infiltrator
Quarian
Sticky grenades and sabotage.  Sticky grenades as they suggest stick to targets and go boom they are weaker then some of the other grenade types in the game though.  Sabotage is useless against most enemies but against the robotic race Geth it causes them to cease attacking you and turning on each other.  Boost weapons and health and shields

M-97 viper sniper rifle and M-12 locust

Vanguard
Asari
Biotic charge sends you forward to enemies causing damage and status traps them like the submission net mentioned earlier you can use both to biotic explosion.  Power boosts and you know by now.

Weapons
M-12 locust and M-5 Phalanx

Three Days to Kill blu ray review

This is an enjoyable action movie starring Kevin Costner.  Costner plays a CIA agent that put his career ahead of his family and his marriage as well as his relationship with his daughter has suffered.  But, he has terminal cancer and wants to make up for lost time with the little time he has left.  His daughter who is in high school is your typical teenager and gives him a hard time.

A female agent offers him a cure to his disease but there is a catch he has to do one more mission for the agency.  Killing a terrorist known as the Wolf.  But he has promised his family he is out of the spy business so he has to balance being a father while being a spy so they don't know what he is doing.

The building of a father/daughter relationship makes this more then an action movie.  You connect with the characters and want them to create that bond.


Bound by Flame PS4 review

My friends know how much I love RPG games so no surprise for you all my next review is this RPG.  In Bound by Flame you play as a mercenary named Vulcan.  Vulcan lives in a world where powerful warlords use the power of ice to dominate their enemies.

Your clients the Red Scribes a group of wizards try to increase their powers to fight the Ice Lords but during the ritual a demonic spirit enters Vulcan instead.

This demon gives Vulcan pryomancer powers to counter the frozen powers of your enemies.  Pyromancer is one of three abilities you can upgrade as level up through the game.

Warrior offers the ability to use two handed swords, axes and warhammers.  Ranger offers the quicker attacking dual daggers weapons, and the already mentioned pryomancer gives fiery magic attacks.

My favorite thing about this game is the item crafting system.  You can upgrade weapons, armor, craft items, it is very handy in the game.

Often times you can bring one member of the cast of allies you have in the game.  Each have their own talents.  There is a healer, an archer, black mage, warrior, etc...

If you love RPGs this game worth playing while waiting for much more RPGs coming later.

Transformers rise of the dark spark ps4 review

This game has gotten mixed reactions on the internet mainly cause no pvp online play.  PvP is player vs player which has become very common these days.  The other kind of online play is called PvE or co op which is when players team up and play against the game's ai enemies.  I happen to like co op gameplay but I agree with many others there should had been a PvP option.

The major plus for this game is the roster, they basically took every transformer that has appeared in the Cybertron game series and made them available in this one.

Gone is the feature of making a custom transformer like the previous games had.  You can use any two guns in game a primary and a heavy, also choose your ability and use tech bonuses but, changing the bot's appearance is not an option.

This game isn't the worse game ever but, it definately for only the hardcore transformer fan.
