Xbox Rolls Out A New App For Making Friends

Xbox has new app Overdog is the new way of making friends to play games with.

What do you do when you get a new game that none of your friends play?  If the game doesn't have matchmaking, then you're stuck playing single player.  Overdog will change this. You tell the app your interests, and it will find other players with the same interests as you. So now when you're playing with these new friends you can talk about the same things you like instead of awkward silence.

We are currently taking submissions for articles. If you want to write an article for the group then message it to our Facebook page.

How To Support Your Favorite Youtuber (without dipping into your pocket)

Well as it turns out there are several ways you can do this. These tricks can also be used on any kind of channel, not just gaming.

The first, and easiest, way is to just watch their videos. Just by clicking on a youtuber's videos they get paid. Not only because of the ads you see on the video itself, but also the ads off to the side:

The second way to support a youtuber would be liking their videos. The more likes a video gets, the more the video will show up in other people's feeds. This multiplies the first effect because now more people are watching the videos and seeing the ads.

The third way to support youtubers is to just click the ads on their videos. BE VERY CAREFUL WITH THIS ONE. If you click the ads on all their videos their account will be suspended or SHUT DOWN. So do this last one only every once in a while, PLEASE!!! It would help the money get passed around a little more fairly.

RECAP

1. Watch all their videos
2. Like all their videos
3. SOMETIMES click their ads

HALO 5: Guardians Might Be The End Of HALO?!?

WOW so you're probably here to see why I would think something as "crazy" as this, but in fact this idea is not too far fetched.
HALO started out making the first three a slow, grand shooter series. No sprint just pure wits and skill.
Then along came Reach. UGH...
Then came HALO Wars. Remember that? Sorry for the reminder.
Finally HALO 4 came on the scene. It was a return to Master Chief, newer HD graphics, and.....a sprint ability?!?! Where did this come from?!? Well they actually did try it out in Reach as an armor ability, but it wasn't forced onto every player such as in HALO 4. The HALO community got really upset over this and some people stuck to HALO 3.

Now with the upcoming HALO 5 Guardians many more HALO core gamers are mad because not only is their sprinting; but there is also boost, aim down sights, and THE ABILITY TO HOVER?!?! WTF???
Now obviously this new HALO has come about because of outside influences like Call of Duty, Counter Strike/Global Offensive, Titainfall, and its own internal influence: HALO 4. Will the new people that are drawn to HALO because of the changes offset those who are leaving?  "343" obviously thinks so because they even made a new game-type to cater to the up-and-coming genre of E-sports.
I am of course referring to Arena. It screams E-sports in every aspect. Now if HALO became as big of an E-sport as Counter Strike then this would be worth it for "343" but would this really be HALO? Yes, it would have the 'Chief in it. Yes, it would have all the guns (now with ADS). BUT IS THIS HALO?!?!?  NO!!  Where is the glorious campaign?  We will just have to wait and find out.
As Runner182 puts it: "These new features had better tie into this campaign..." Heres hopin'.

EDIT: As a side note HALO does have a movie, tv series, and now the russian online only version. these are other ways that 343 are making money and can funnel these funds toward their main course: more and more HALO games.

COD Black Ops 3 WILL SUCK?

Call of Duty is in trouble. They messed up on Ghosts and they did't do us right on Advanced Warfare. Critics say it was a pretty good game (IGN gave it a 10, Metacritic gave it an 80), HOWEVER the polls on Metecritic say it wasn't so hot; an average of 5.2. Why don't people like it?

Well here is where it gets dicey. Apparently COD favors the noobs and pulls back on the expirienced players. In ranked play your suppose to be playing with people of the same skill level as you, but that is not usually the case. What actually happens is you are put in with whoever is available  and then the hit registration is put up if your bad and down if your good.
Another issue is the ExoSuits. People like the conceps, but after putting in hours and hours the ExoSuit just becomes an annoying addition to the game. You might have shot a guy 4 times in the back but he will boost away and hit you once and YOU die.

So when Call of Duty teased Black Ops 3 people perked up. Would this be a return to the previous glory of COD?!? Sadly it seems not, because their web site has this to say:

"Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 deploys players into a dark, twisted future where a new breed of Black Ops soldier emerges and the lines are blurred between our own humanity and the technology we created to stay ahead, in a world where cutting-edge military robotics define warfare."

The words "future" and "humanity/technology" are what gives it away.

GTA 5 Mods Are Off To A Slow Start

GTA 5 is finally here for the PC, and the question of the week is: where are all the moders? Well they were waiting for the smartest of their group to give them the key to unlock the game for mods, but now they can already get it from a modder group in Russia. So get your eyes and fingers ready for the moding to come soon. So far the only mods are the ones made by this group (one is infinite health and ammo; and another is enhanced field of view), but more are on the way!
