Hardcore Tactical Shooter - Special post

Game Designer by the name of Christian Allen has started a project to make a Hardcore Tactical Shooter.

He has worked on game titles such as Ghost Recon: Advanced Warfighter and Halo Reach.

Were you fan of the old Rainbow Six and Ghost Recon games? even the SWAT game series? Where there was more planning before the action took place. Remember feeling your heart pound in your chest when leading your squad through a house, checking every corner in case an enemy was there.

Then this is your chance to relive those days!

And don’t forget to spread the word!

Gamer Dies Playing League Of Legends In Gaming Cafe, Nobody Notices For 9 Hours

videogamenostalgia:

A 23 year old Taiwanese gamer, Chen Rong-yu, died while playing an extended run in the game League of Legends at a local Taiwanese gaming center in New Taipei. Thirty gamers surrounding him did not notice he was dead until 9 hours later. His body was positioned upright with his hands motionless on his keyboard.

This is a starking reminder than staying still for any low-acuity activity (not just limited to gaming) can yield negative results. When gaming or reading or watching TV, make sure you get up and stretch for a few minutes at a minimum to avoid chances of blood clots building up.

Rong-yu’s condition is likely related to a underlying heart condition, but the health advice is being spread throughout in case unknown underlying conditions cause more widespread deaths. His exact cause of death is unknown, but police suspect it was cold weather, low temperature, remaining stationary, and perhaps an underlying heart condition leading to cardiac arrest. I think a better idea would be to keep a better eye on your fellow gamer and make sure he/she is okay. Take a break, guys.
