Pirates: Treasure Hunters BETA Review

Pirates: Treasure Hunters
 A few days ago I was gifted a BETA code by Sony via PlayStation, chosen to take part in the BETA to provide feedback, you know how the system goes. Well I'll tell you simply without wasting your time

Pirates: Treasure Hunt is a MOBA (Multiplayer Online Battle Arena like Overwatch, Battleborn and Killstrain but it's different where it gives that indie vibe. Basically your a pirate in a team of pirates trying to destroy the totems and stash of the other team and the first team to achieve this wins

It's playful, witty, charming and best played with friends. The art, customisation and gameplay is smooth simple aiming at straight forward fun. The only thing I have against it is that it does not allow online play I sat several minutes waiting to get to play with other people, so far I have managed to get the best out of it through playing C.P.U. The controls need a little getting used to but other than that it's good all round.

It's a good game and luckily it's still a BETA and certain fixes can be made in the final product, I can easily recommend this game to people


Verdict: 7/10

Uncharted Story Trailer

Uncharted 4: A Thief's End
Another CGI rendered cinematic trailer for +Uncharted 4: A Thief's End titled, The Final Story Trailer has been released and it could literally knock your socks off. I have been patiently waiting for this game despite the delays and the issues following it, moved from release in Holiday 2015 and March 18th 2016, I don't care how long it takes, because i trust +Naughty Dog and as far as I am assured a beautiful final product is the result, a game that would be guilty of stealing many hours of my life, am sold with change to spare. The final Uncharted chapter will drop April 26th 2016 (with hope of no further delays).

Some Games to Play Before You Buy a Next-gen Console (or even if you already have)

Far Cry 3
Far Cry 3 and/or Far Cry Series
I have never played any other Far Cry prior or after this one, probably because I didn't get to play the earlier ones and I haven't come across any one that is this good. The story of Jason Brody is just unique in its own way. A group of rich kids stuck on an island rid with a crazy bunch of stealing, killing, thieving, kidnapping and drug trafficking misfits, led by a psycho, Vaas, causing Jason to step up to the mantle to free his friends and everything in the ferocious talons of Hoyt Volker with the help of a few rebels.

Uncharted; The Nathan Drake Collection

Uncharted Series
Everybody loves Drake, no the artist, Nathan Drake, the most vicious and courageous treasure hunter, yes, its not Lara Croft, her time is far past ( I know that seems bias but its the truth, Drake is the best). Never reluctant to put his friends in the gravest of dangers
selfish and blinded by the ambition of finding of of the greatest treasures to ever come across the world, but he is always learning that no amount of treasure in the is more important than peoples lives and more importantly the life of his friends. on the 26th of April 2016 the journey of our beloved Drake that started in 2007 will end will +Uncharted 4: A Thief's End.
Uncharted: A Thief's End
GTA V
For the first time in GTA, you would have three characters whose paths have crossed and thus destiny's have been intwined like braids, Michael De Santa, Franklin Clinton and Trevor Phillips since then have to work against all odds, achieve the perfect score (heist) and live how they have always dreamed.
GTA V
Red Dead Redemption
Not your average western story, in this one John Marston is put to the ultimate test of loyalty, determination and love. An outlaw, John Marston, is tasked by the government to find his old gang buddies and take them out in order to, for himself, have freedom. Take Two Interactive (Rockstar) have been able to recreate a western world full of fun side mission, side attractions and an almost unending luscious world. A gratifying experience by my opinion.
Red Dead Redemption
The Last of Us
The Last of Us tells a compelling story of a bond between a broken, faithless and hopeless man and a vibrant, optimistic and curious young girl; Joel and Ellie, the story is not just about them but their fight for survival in a world tearing itself apart after being rid with a fungi disease infecting and causing humans to lose their minds, act aggressively and totally decay inside out. Critics have also gone to give them thumbs up for the highlight of LGBT themes there-in. It is worth experiencing and I would advise you to grab it on whatever console you can.
The Last of Us

Finding You

Believe
In every school, there's always this group of kids that think up a food chain where they're at the top and make people feel like shit because they're shit inside. If you're not one of them? That's cool I feel you, if you're one of them? You need to Eat, Pray, Love and find yourself and if you want to be one of them? Find something to stand for real quick because you're falling into some real shit.

Avoid such people if they are at your school. You'll never be happy if you keep telling yourself, "I'll be happy when these people accept me into their clique" or trying to keep up (stay competitive); jealousy and envy will never take you anywhere but below, stop constantly comparing yourself to anybody, instead create a standard or set of tenets to follow, challenge yourself and monitor your growth, express yourself no matter what people say, be you, be original and stay classy
