So, school is reaching its end and i have to work my ass off to pass with flying colours. I won't be posting at all for the next week. I know it's E3 time, but it's also the hardest part of the school year. After this ends, i'll be getting a new PC, which means more games! Really excited about GTAV for PC this Autumn, the game will probably be playable on 5-6 year old processors and GPUs since 2008-2009. For me, the looks of the game don't really matter. What matters is that this game will also be on PC, not sure why R* would release it on next-gen consoles though... Those will sell the least,.probably. I also can't wait for the new Uncharted and Far Cry, Star Wars Battlefront looks amazing too! Batman Arkham Knight is sick!
Anyways, i'll talk to you bros in a week or maybe earlier. Laters.

2 day school trip!
Just got back from my school trip dudes! Unfortunately it wasn't how i expected it to be, but my buds and i made ourselves a buttload of fun times. The hotel was shitty as hell... My bud found a dead,.dislocated locust on his bed, the towels had dry blood on them and there was no after-shower hair dryer. Great, eh? The bus rides were fun, although today everyone was pretty tired because last night we had a disco party and no one went to sleep until 3-4 AM and slept till around 6AM (like me for example). Some guys from my class got illegally drunk, so my head teacher was pissed AF. Gotta go see what's up on Facebook. Laters.

100th post special dudes!
Well, I heff to apologise for the rare posting... The posting frequency will, hopefully, increase through time, especially because the school will be breaking up soon and i'll be off to the holidays. Now, about my 100th special... I know that not that many peeps follow my blog, but i do know some do, sometimes. I wanted to say a bit more about myself, but not like my name and looks lol, so here we go...
I live in a small and poor country in Southeast Europe that is located between Italy and Greece (to make it simpler) called Serbia. I live in its capital, Belgrade (Beograd), one of the most humble and peaceful places on this giant planet we call Earth. I grew up in a hard-working family. When i was born, Belgrade was being bombed by the NATO airforces, luckily i don't remember any of those. As a kid, i had a passion for video games that could reach the sky. My first PC was a Pentium III, and boy it could run all sorts of games except for GTA. I liked sports at the time. Since then till now i have trained 4 different sports. At the time when i was 5, i would always ask my dad to show me some cool stuff in 3DMax (yep, it existed back then). All i could do was create and give shape to different shapes, but it was fun. When i finished 2nd grade of Primary, my parents bought me a PS3 (it came out a month before with its 600 euro price tag), i was sooooo happy! :D I would be playing it all day, every day, my eyes would become red, even though i was wearing glasses (i still am). I can also remember grabbing the last copy of GTA IV from the store shelf. I couldn't put the controller down at all once i started playing the game. One thing was for sure, my friends hated on me a bit because of my obsessiveness to video games, but i hardly cared, it was my choice whether i would be making my life better my way or not.
YourLocalNerd is just a part of the link i use when i create my profiles, it's usually in the description too. Why did i choose that? Well, simple, my friends call me a nerd, which i can be at some times, but rarely (i.e i study longer than 2-4 hours).
What about the name 'Comic King', you say? Well, there was this comic book design competition on a domestic level. I entered because i thought that MAYBE i could do something. After about 20 days, unexpectedly i got a message saying that i won 10th place in the country. I was speechless and exctatic... I couldn't believe that i actually had won something. Since that evening, my Steam nickname changed, forever. I finally had my own unique nickname... Absolutely unique (well, there are a few comic stores in Japan and China with the name as mine, but fuck 'em lol :P).
So, uuuh, there ya go! Something about me. I hope i'll get to post more about myself, but for now this is it :) I'll talk to you all soon. Laters.
THE NOSTALGIA - BATTLEFIELD 3 REVIEW
PRESENTATION
The story follows a group of American squad members that go into Iran, Iraq and, of course, Russia to liquidate the bad guys. As much bad and boring it sounds, it actually really is. Constant cutscenes with dull dialogues and voice acting of Duke Nukem are stretchy, thus made me want to drop my joystick even faster. Before certain missions, you can choose your desired arsenal, ranging from perks to RPGs. Constant quick-action events are, indeed, a nice touch, but they fail to fix the overall influence. After passing the campaign and forgeting most of it immediately, i turned to the massive and thrilling multiplayer. As before, you get 4 classes, assault, recon, engineer and medic. Brand new long awaited option to customize weapons not depending on the class has finally been brought in, but the class drop-after-death has been kept. In order to assault your enemies, you can attack in more ways. For instance, my jet buddy took me to a high place, i jumped out, landed on a high building crawling with snipers, took all of them one by one. It's amazing on which places the snipers can be, but remember, bullets don't travel with the speed of light, every one of them has its trajectory until it hits the ground. Game modes such as rush and conquest are still here, along with squad DM and they haven't been changed at all.
GRAPHICS
The bright and shining looks of the Frostbite 2 engine are amazing and they push the consoles to the limit while the PC gamers can enjoy a bit better graphics and twice as much more players in games. The game doesn't require you to have such a powerful CPU nor GPU to play it on the lowest settings.
THE VERDICT

Which games I play... Which i don't.
When i was 4-6 years old, i had a PC monitor that worked thanks to the cathode ray tube. A few years later, i got a PC that i use even today, but mostly for games that won't burn my GPU or CPU to ashes. I was never really a fan of strategies or RTS games nor MMOs such as Star Trek Online or SWTOR (although i did play them for some time, until i reached a boss only beatable with premium items). I played League of Legends, but i realised i should just stick to Gmod, CS GO and other shooters/racing titles. LoL was fun for SOME time, but eventually it got boring and repetetive and I also realised that 90% of LoL players didn't get girls (if you think i'm wrong, think twice. Guys that no life on Tetris have a bigger chance of getting girls). Also, the LoL community is filled with try hard kids now... Makes me wanna puke. I mean, come the fuck on, internet cafés have been turned into LoL brothels! 'Uh, you killed my fucking Vayne, imma report you hacker Jewish bitch!' or better yet 'no wtf omfg y didnt u gone mid after i tell u to go mid u go top btch.. fck u jew cunt lern to play' and those are only Germans! You can't imagine what's it like with the Czechs and Polish guys, they also rage their asses off but in their language! LoL just makes me feel ok to play MW3 with kids that compliment me by calling me a hacker because i own them a few times with my predator missile. Gawd. Anyways, that's it for today. Talk to you guys tomorrow. Laters.

Entire world in a smartphone - Watch_Dogs REVIEW
Games such as GTA and Saint's Row are famous for the ability to kill whoever you want, whenever you want. Watch Dogs is a game about power, power that, if it existed, would take over not just Chicago, but more than you can imagine.
PRESENTATION
The smartphone is your main weapon, but strange enough, it's quite unnoticeable. It can be used to hack into everything, from cameras to electrical facilities causing the entire city to lose elrctrical power for 10 seconds. By hacking into, let's say, someone's phone or their electrical thingies, you gather different info based on their clothing, looks and profession. Cameras are a vital factor. They represent steps and logical paths and are scattered all around the giant city of Chicago. Aiden can use them to hack into unreachable devices because of their big height mount attribute. I found it hard to like the lone character of Aiden Pierce, but then again, that doesn't mean it's a bad thing. During the 20 hour long campaign, upgrades can be bought, along with clothes guns and vehicles. While the selection may be vast, races truly were dissappointing. I did like the ride around the city, getting away from the cops and activating massive traps along the way hungry for more yellow blazing, but races show a true disbalance between you and your AI opponents. While they can just race and hit your side doors and bumpers, you can devastate them in a beautiful thus boring way. Quite much makes me surprised why there's no slow-mo in this game... The multiplayer is surprisingly great for a genre like this. Few game modes such as TDM and CTI (capture the intel) mainly focus on bringing down a buttload of bad luck on your enemies using your smartphone. You can also join another player's campaign anonymously and try to hack him and ruin a bit of his fun.
GRAPHICS
Chicago is an urban wasteland, a huge playground for you to conquer, and it's also one of the most beautiful cities you'll ever see. From huge skyscrapers to poor suburbian territories and polluted lakes designed with DirectX 11 tech, i let my tongue reach the floor. Character faces look realistic, lighting is smooth and explosions look marvelous. A lot of attention has been put into sidewalks and roads, while almost every single building has an interior.

Eh, people are dumb...
So, from time to time I go on YouTube to watch the trailers of the many CoD games, from CoD 4 to CoD AW. Wanna know why? I like the soundtracks in 'em. When i look to the dislike bar on every CoD trailer since CoD MW3, my mind puts my attention onto the comments section. It's mostly Battlefield fanboys bitching about how bad every CoD game is. Sure, it isn't what it used to be, but to complain about the game having small maps!? Da fuq!? Why would a game that evolved with small maps get bigger ones? Are you also gonna suggest to bring in a jeep that fires rockets out of the exhaust or better yet, rainbows coming out of your ass? Really? It's not like i'm choosing sides here (i haven't touched Ghosts in a long ass time) but to be that dumb, arrogant and plain retarded is just ridiculous. I'm not talking about a few people, i'm talking about thousands of haters. If you're gonna hate, make it rational. Going on a road trip with my school class on Sunday, it's gonna be awesome! I'll talk to you all soon. Laters.
