Based on the comparison screens, you can see the graphics have been drastically improved to enhance the experience that gamers loved with the original Tony Hawk game released back in 1999.  The game will arrive on both PlayStation 4 and Xbox One consoles, so no need to worry Microsoft fans and will cost $39.99, $49.99 for the digital deluxe version that includes unique content and gear. If you pre-order the game, you will gain early access to the “warehouse demo.”

As you can imagine, this is something gamers have been clamoring for a long time. While its not a new Tony Hawk game, it’s honestly close enough. The reactions to the announcement of Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1 and 2 being remastered got tons of positive responses and suggestions. You can peep them and the trailer below.

FIFA 19 On Playstation 4, Xbox One & Nintendo Switch: “The Best Franchise In EA Is Back”

FIFA 19

Yes, ladies and gentlemen of the SOHH and getFRUSH community, the best franchise in EA is back (yeah I said it). FIFA 19 is upon us. Don’t get me wrong, Madden is fun, but FIFA has consistently put out greatness regardless if you like soccer or not.

Not only do you get to take your favorite team to the UEFA Championship, you also get to again build your dream team in Club Creator mode. But, let’s not get ahead of ourselves. Here are five reasons you should buy FIFA 19 for your Playstation 4, Xbox One and Nintendo Switch!

1. Alex Hunter Story

Remember Alex Hunter, Danny Williams and Kim Hunter? I hope so, because their story mode has been great in the previous games. And now, it’s coming to a conclusion. Play through their stories and help guide them to the glory they deserve at the highest level. Along the way you are presented with tough decisions, game challenges, and other scenarios which put you in the position of a professional soccer player. How will the story end? Pick up the sticks and find out.

2. Club Creator

You think you can build a championship caliber team from the ground up? We all talk the talk but how many of you actually can manage personalities, finances, and a demanding fan base? Well, this is your chance. You think NFL fans are tough, you don’t know soccer fans and their passion for their team. Give this new game mode a shot as you start from the bottom and have to grind your way through a season handling all aspects of the team from the manager to maybe a disgruntled player.

3. New Shooting System

The shooting system has added a MAJOR wrinkle this time around. Once easy to control, is no longer the case. Skill is definitely involved when it comes to shots on target. Not only do you have to be accurate but timing is EVERYTHING! If your timing is off you can go ahead and embarrass yourself, the announcers will call you out on it too. The volley system has significantly upgraded as well. But, don’t worry the training environment has changed enough to help guide you through the changes. So, if you need time to adjust, you get ample time to do so. It’s a great adjustment to a game which was already great.

4. Career Mode

Much like the other titles in the sports genre, the most popular is the career mode. And this one is no different. From playing as Alex Hunter and his story, to creating your own manager/player, you can lead some of the greatest teams in the world to glory. You think you could lead another team to a 100 point season like Manchester City did last year? Or have your player be the youngest to ever win the World Cup? Here’s you chance to prove your player belongs on the same pitch as Cristiano Ronaldo or Lionel Messi.

5. More Control/Creativity

Something which was lacking from previous editions of FIFA was the ability to get creative with your player and how he/she handled the ball. Now, comes something similar to NBA Live’s freestyle stick. Fake out the entire defense with your own unique ‘handle’ on the soccer ball. Can you impress your national team enough to get selected? Or will you end up like Leroy Sane with all the talent but something was missing to be left of the team. Show off your best moves and make sure to post them online so the FIFA world can take notice.

With the finish of the World Cup and the start of the soccer seasons around the world, it’s time to get excited for FIFA 19. I stand by my statement it’s the BEST franchise in EA. Much how we feel about NBA 2K and Madden, is how the entire world feels about FIFA. Anyone and everyone can get in on the fun, I’ll see you all on the pitch/sticks.

Find me on PS4: RyanC34 or let me know what you think on social media Twitter: @Zero2Hero IG: Rproctor23 or Snap: Proctorious.

Valkyria Chronicles 4 On PS4, Xbox One & Nintendo Switch: “Take The Journey Behind Enemy Lines”

Valkyria Chronicles 4

What is going on SOHH and getFRUSH community?! I have something different to review for you today. If you’re into turn based role playing games, I have something up your alley.

I love a good adventure game, even if it happens to be a turn based game. Valkyria Chronicles 4 is the latest installment in the series. Are you ready to take part in the most critical war in Europa’s history? Take the journey behind enemy lines, across all different planes in Operation Northern Cross. Yeah, sounds nerdy, but believe me, this one is DOPE! Here’s the top five reasons you should get out to GameStop, Target, or your go-to spot to cop this one on September 25.

Reason 1: SEGA

Ever since SEGA has teamed up with Nintendo, SEGA has been on a roll lately with their titles. SEGA has created one of the most innovative turn-based-strategy-meets-tactical-action-game in recent memory. Being a strong Japanese based game company, SEGA was able to bring in one of their legendary composers from the original Valkyria Chronicles, illustrious Hitoshi Sakimoto. If you think music dictates a lot of the feel in a game, this one takes you on a roller coaster. Check it out for yourself.

Reason 2: Hand Drawn

This series has a great signature piece. The graphics are created in such a way it appears hand drawn. That is by design. The hand drawn style is matched with the most intensive newer generation of computer graphics. This one was created with water colors and blended with a new CANVAS Graphics engine. A state of the art computer graphic system. If you get nothing, the game is beautifully made. You can honestly lose track of the being overwhelmed with the art of the game.

Reason 3: Memoirs From Battle Edition

Many things can be added into this story from the exclusive content in the Memoirs from Battle edition. With things like Ragnarok Controller Skin, more DLC adventures with more characters. You even get Claude’s Travel Journal. It’s an amazing art book that’s inspired from the game. Cop this exclusive edition and see how dope the content is for this one.

Reason 4: The Next Gen Battle System

This next gen battle system is something to be experienced. It’s a game changer. It is something special. It is the future of turn based RPG’s. Part RPG, part 3rd person shooter called “BLiTZ” battle is back in full force. There are some new features to include, such as the Grenadier, and fight the imperial threat with expanded battle options and the largest map the series has ever created.

Reason 5: Something Different

Don’t get me wrong, I love NBA 2K and FIFA 19 (write up coming) but is it not also, refreshing to have a legit adventure game? Sports games fill the void when there is not another adventure game in the queue? This is a great one to have in the rolodex. This is one that will just keep putting out more content similar to Destiny and we all know you can never have enough content. Look at Zelda: Breath of the Wild, the game never stops. Keep this one around for more and better content to be released.

Valkyria Chronicles 4 is the continuation of a great story. And if you’re into the turn-based strategy RPG ala Final Fantasy style. Go out cop this game. Not only cop this game, cop the Memoirs from Battle edition and get the FULL experience. You won’t regret it, I promise.
