Among Us: Tips and Tricks

Image
By Julian Feliciano 1: If you are the imposter, l ock doors to make sure nobody sees you! 2: Learn the tasks! 3: Use sabotage. 4: Accuse someone else if you are seen. The best defense is a good offense. 5: Kill the lights--it is easier to remain unseen in the dark. 6: If you are a crewmate and you have a medbay scan, do it in front of your teammates! 7: Use the cameras at security. It's like having eyes on everyone! 8: Memorize where the camera locations are in each map if you are an imposter, so you don’t get caught! 9: If you are an imposter in a vent, your kill cooldown won’t go down at all. You need to be outside the vents. 10: Make sure the cameras aren't red. If they are someone, is watching you.

Season 6 Fortnite Battle Pass Review

Image
By Malcolm Mungo (Note to Reader: If you are not a fan of Fortnite, then I would not recommend reading this article. It is for people who play Fortnite and know the basics of the game). Ah, Season 6. I know it’s over, but I still thought I should still write an article about it. So here’s my honest opinion on all of the Season 6 Battle Pass. Below is a list of all of the new Season 6 perks and cosmetics plus my opinion on them. First things first, let’s review the first tier. DJ Yondre. This guy is fire. Epic had put off adding llama related skins to fortnite, but finally, we have DJ Yondre  Calamity. Probably one of the more popular tier 1 skins, for obvious reasons, and Epic has done a pretty good job on her  Yay! Your first 10% xp boost!  The pickaxe banner is a pickaxe. It’s pretty boring, even though it goes with the theme of Season 6  A 100 V-Buck salary  Bang! That’s all I have to say about this emoticon. It also goes really well with...

Black Ops 4 Review

Image
By Edward Araujo and Tenzin Lenshey Disclaimer from Our Editors: This article is a review of an FPS game, or a first person shooter game. We understand that this style of gaming is extremely popular amongst our population, but we are in no way promoting violence. We strive to always be sensitive to the harms of violence. Black Ops 4 is quickly becoming the game of the year by combining FPS games and the famous game, Fortnite. If you didn’t already know an FPS game is a first person shooter game. A first person shooter type of game is a specific type of game where you see through your character’s eyes while you eliminate everyone on the opposing team. As opposed to Fortnite which is a battle royale game, meaning that you have to eliminate all the other players until you are the only one left. Though the two games are really good, the one thing that made Black Ops 4 one of the most anticipated games of the year for Black Ops fans is that they have added a new game mode called “ba...

Anthem, Will It Be Good?

Image
By George Haraguchi and Jonathan Cruz Note to Reader: If you are not interested in video games, this article may not be for you. Will BioWare’s upcoming shared world shooter game Anthem - to be released on February 22nd, 2019 - become popular like Destiny or will it fail? Anthem’s main weapons, called javelins, are Interceptor, Storm, Colossus, and Ranger. As far as we know they are customizable in terms of color, weapon choice and armor. We know you can change your javelin in the strider (a moving vehicle that you use to go on missions) and Fort Tarsis (your private base). Fort Tarsis is your main base in the realm of Anthem. Currently, we don’t know the name of the planet where Anthem takes place so Fort Tarsis is the only general description of the setting. We know that Anthem has multiple biomes and they have different monsters based on their surroundings. For example, a desert biome (not real or known in the game) has sand titans (also not real or known in the game). We al...
