Movies You Didn’t Know Were Shaped By Video Games

The story of giant mechs fighting giant monsters told in Pacific Rim pulled from decades of Japanese anime and films, but director Guillermo del Toro didn’t copy any one movie when developing his own. But as a die hard gamer, it’s no surprise to see futuristic pilots in VR helmets working in unison to launch special attacks, taking on more and more difficult enemies. Del Toro even called on Ellen McLain, the voice of the Portal game series’ GLaDOS to supply the voice of his own futuristic me

One thing you gotta give credit to Fortnite for is that they may wear their influences on their sleeves, but they do a dang good job at pimping out those ideas. Take the plane from PUBG for example: yet another thing that Fortnite has stolen and reimagined for their g

We get it, scopes are cool. But not every weapon should have a scope, as it is best to only place these attachments on sniper rifles to help increase their already lengthy distance. Assault rifles are also another weapon that should avoid being paired with a scope, as red dot sights have been proven to work best as they are not necessarily a weapon used for long distance targ

If you’re playing PUBG there’s a high chance that you’ve at least dabbled with the Call of Duty franchise in some capacity. That also means that there’s a very high likelihood that you played Call of Duty with that one friend with the super expensive headset. There’s a reason players who take the game way too seriously splurge on these headsets; directional audio. PUBG also features this type of audio and it can be the difference in coming out on top. Not only can you hear other players near you in a match. If you listen close enough, or your headset is good enough, you can hear the specific direction in which they are moving. Many shooters offer radars that allow players to get a general sense of where their opponents are. PUBG trades in that user interface tool for the simple use of sound. Want to get a jump on someone trying to sneak up on you? Do you want to sneak up on an unsuspecting player or team? The sound is going to be your best friend. Some of the best PUBG players in the world use sound to their advantage and is a huge reason they can rack up so many defeats in a ma

Suffice to say that Fortnite had ample opportunities to capitalize and become THE battle royale of today. But instead of giving us an entirely brand new take on the battle royale genre, Fortnite really boiled down to a PUBG / Minecraft clone. It may be an undoubtedly fun game, but we’re going to call a spade a spade, and today we’re going to go through all the things Fortnite has ripped

We’re going to guess that Fortnite is the less awesome version of battle royale games and Kanye West, based on this meme. But who really is this Wal-Mart brand Kanye West on the bottom of the meme? Maybe he is a lot more fun than the real Kanye West, and maybe he’s even a fan of Taylor Sw

In a feature that isn’t exactly made clear at the get-go, players can actually enter a free look mode by pressing “Alt” and using the mouse to navigate the camera more freely around the player. It is with this feature that players can peek around corners, and peer through windows without being seen at

And trust us, you do not want to be caught by this force field as it not only moves very quickly, but it will also slowly, but surely kill you. It is this fast-paced gameplay that requires you to continually be on the move, which often forces players out of hiding and into some rather chilling face-to-face confrontations. If you are unlucky enough to be caught out in the open, FPS aim Training|https://fpspedia.com/ holster your weapon and simply zig-zag your way to safety rather than the all too common straight-line met

There are some very serious humans out there in the world. Some in places of power and some who troll internet forums and social media. What they choose to do with their lives is not to be judged, but by how seriously they act is how they are to be judged. So when you are walking around town with your friend and you’re talking about how great Fortnite is, chances are you’re going to run into some guy like in the meme ab

By far the most difficult way to win in the increasingly popular PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds is playing by yourself or with random teammates. Even so, there are measures players can take to increase their odds of winning, or at least making it into the top

Fortnite deserves a ton of credit for how they rolled out their game versus PUBG . Making Fortnite a free-to-play game validates the reasons for the affordable battle pass and all the other cosmetics that the game off

Now that we’ve got some of the meat and potatoes out of the way, it’s time to dive into the finer details of how Fortnite rips off PUBG . Starting with one that particularly feels like a blatant rip-off, keeping the lobby sizes to

People have passions, it’s what makes art and stuff great. Passion is sometimes blinding and people often allow their subjective desires to get in the way of rational thinking. This happens to a point where if anything is heard that conflicts with their thoughts, they get triggered. This is a meme about a triggered PUBG nerd c
