    Commented subject My Friend Pedro.
    5 years ago

    My Friend Pedro is a brutal ballet about friendship, fantasy, and the fight of one man to wipe out a sentient banana in his path. Published by Devolver Digital.


    • What is it?

       My Friend Pedro is a fast-paced platformer focusing more on style than just going through the stage. While the play may be tiny in duration, you are kept going by ranks and achievements, making it very replayable. MFP, follows the Mario formula, adding each level slowly fresh ideas or weapons, then building on them as they become more and more complicated.Hb0RZxdSgAdSMvJtzQk3DERKmPooIm.jpg
    • Story

       My Friend Pedro sees you wake up in a street having lost your memory, just to be welcomed by a floating banana called Pedro himself. We're off to a good beginning, right? Then Pedro guides you through different stages as you rain bullets on enemies for unspecified purposes, lead you to kill more and more individuals and give you some helpful tips. Pedro is a lucky friend of yours. It's love for Pedro.

    • Gameplay

       Imagine if you combined Max Payne's gun play with Tony Hawk's Pro Skater's score / combo scheme and then amplified it to eleven. From beginning to finish, you can readily execute a string of death, wreck a gigantic score and feel bloody great about it. On a 2D plane, the left stick regulates your motion, while the correct one controls your objective. Shooting is a straightforward squeeze of the correct button, while holding the left lets you lock one target while still targeting the correct stick. That's all nice, but the true MVP clicks to slow down the left stick. Things are getting really interesting now.  Having seen John Wick ever and thinking, wouldn't it be nice if there was more parkour, and a talk, swimming banana and more violence and a 2D side-scrolling shooting game, played on your desktop?  That is what the game actually is.
      It's a good visual style and the Soundtrack reminds me of Hotline Miami, gunplay feels enjoyable. The main gameplay includes the slowdown of time and acrobatic motion. These instruments enable the player with his killings to become creative and generally there are many methods of approaching fighting situations. In the first two sections, enemy meetings are rather open and offer plenty of space for dealing with every scenario.
      I like the divided shot mechanic in particular, and I believe that it really works well. Essentially, you can target two different enemies at the same moment if you're dual wielding  a weapon. It’s easy to get the hang of and it works really well. You can kick enemies also, drop things on enemies, even kick them off. There is a great deal of diversity in killing techniques.

    • Graphics

       Graphics aren't amazing and look a bit dated and enemy faces look cartoonish.
    • The bad

       There’s no workshop support, which is disappointing. 
       The subsequent levels bring the game in a different direction, and I discovered that I didn't like that. This is a game that provides you all that you really have at the beginning and does not develop in the correct manner. It begins as a violent ballet and ends as a puzzle platformer , which I really didn't want.
    • The verdict

       It is all I wanted My Friend Pedro to be. Gentle, stylish creative gunplay that gives you the feeling to create your own scenes for action in a film. What shouldn't enjoy? Pedro is love. Pedro is your friend.XENsKB1WjDWG2NAGj7xPiJKO7jv2U5.jpg

    Hello everyone! Today we will be exploring counter strike's server browser and its secret little packages that came along with it. :) 

    P.S English isn't my native language so if I make a mistake, please don't make angry comments!


    • The year is 2000

       In year 2000 Counter-strike was released and in fact it is also the first multiplayer game I ever played. And I will admit I had a pirated copy of the game because, of course parents wouldn't buy it for me. Also, if you went to school and thought why is it extremely forbidden to download old counter strike, it's because of its ''secret packages'' or simply malware. And who have ever had a pirated copy of counter-strike you all know that the only servers you were ever playing on was Asia, Russia or maybe South America. 

       But moving on forward the element of today all comes down to how open a certain platform is and that sometimes can be a problem. You got to understand at the same time being such an open platform you also open yourself up to more and more attacks being the more popular platform, being the most open platform, you understand that's where you're going to get attacked and unfortunately video games aren't too different either.

    • How were you attacked

       You see that Counter-Strike at the time and other shooters didn't have matchmaking where you just hit a button and the game finds you the appropriate players to play against and guess what, it's a great system. Hell, you could just hit a button and grab a beer, do something or even make some delicious tea if you had to and you would just get in the game. This system made that you don't have to search for servers in a server menu.

       But back in Counter-strike era you didn't have matchmaking and what it came down to was opening the server browser, finding a server of choice whatever map it was running, all of that and just clicking on it, loading up the required files and getting right into your game and for the most part it worked! But there were issues if you were playing on the pirated side like I was. And the pirated servers of course came with their own files and there was nothing stopping from modifying the servers and adding game-play features. And in the end, you could have zombie mods, gun game and other game modes. 

       However this came with an issue, see the server that I in fact played on or whatever batch of servers there were, was downloading files to my computer and in this case the files that are downloaded, some of them came with executable files and in the end I have downloaded a Trojan on the PC and most of the viruses were financially dominated so either they would lock you out of the computer or with your computer started doing DDoS attacks on other servers.

    • Should you be afraid?

       In the modern times you shouldn't be afraid of malware in the server browser, because the antivirus will stop almost all viruses and in CSGO server browser there are no viruses, because it is protected by Valve. But if you do load up old Counter-Strike still be careful, because those servers aren't protected

    • The end

       If you ever have been infected with malware because of Counter-strike, let me know in the comments!
