When 50 dragons attack in Skyrim

by Paul Yan - on Nov 25th 2011 - No Comments

Dragons fly solo in The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. They don’t fly around in groups (at least from what I can tell, so far), but when a bunch of them do, it looks like this.

YouTube user “Gnomeslayer778″ “IdioticMunchkis” (or Kotaku-goer “Legend of Myth”) spawned not 5, 10, or even 20 dragons, but a copious 50 by apparently accessing the game’s console command and inputting a line of code in the PC version of the game. “I spawned 50 dragons in smallish groups of 3-5 and let them spread around so they were not all clumped up,” wrote Gnomeslayer778 IdioticMunchkis in the video’s comment section on YouTube.

The result is a swirling mass of fire-breathing chaos in the sky. It’s like a dragon apocalypse, and I shiver to think how long my high elf mage would last since any dragon can apparently kill me with just one direct blast of fire (*sad face*). But luckily for Gnomeslayer778 IdioticMunchkis, he apparently had God Mode enabled at the time for invincibility.

If I somehow naturally saw 50 dragons — let alone, two or three — gathered together in my game without using any cheats, you’d first seem me overjoyed at this rare, freak occurrence. This would then be followed by me praying to Akatosh while running for my dear, weak life.

[Correction: The video was made by "IdioticMunchkis" (aka "Legend of Myth"), and not by "Gnomeslayer778" as originally posted. This error has been fixed.]

Of course a Grand Theft Auto game would not be what it is without hookers

There will probably be bouncers and clubs in GTA V like there was in the BOGT 

Golf courses in a very rich looking part of town. Possibly Beverly Hills or Bell Air

Hollywood Hills & Celebrity homes that we saw in the original San Andreas

Bank robberies or big time heists might be in a mission of GTA V

The roads might have desert sand in them, which indicates Las Venturas might be in the game

The Homeless will be a part of the game as you can see.

Could this be a part of the Popular Homeless hangout Skid Row?

Undocumented Migrant workers aka Illegal Americans! + a Crop-duster 

Instead of Muscle Beach there calling it Muscle Sands

Battlefield 3 will come with two disks on the XBOX 360 version [Rumor]

by Elias - on Sep 5th 2011 - No Comments

One of the negative things of having an XBOX 360 beside having to pay for XBOX Live is the fact many high end games end up coming out with multiple disks. A new rumor has surfaced with a snapshot that suggests one disk for the Playstation 3 version and two for the 360. In our site it seems like we have more Modern Warfare fans that Battlefield as the voters continue to vote for MW3 in our sweepstakes giveaway. In defense of Battlefield 3 that whole franchise is much bigger in file size than that of Call of Duty. In Battlefield 3 you will get to fly helicopters and jets as well as drive armor vehicles in their huge maps and not to mention their using the new Frostbite 2 game engine.
