Recommended PC Games to Try in 2022 Part 1 (Review, Minimum specs and Optimizations)

Updated: Jan 12, 2022

2022 has kicked off with a boom(I mean no such boom but I added that because it sounds good XDD)and we all hope that this year we all stay safe at homes and make that time count.

The question is 'What am I gonna do??' and then everyone goes like-I can't even go down anymore, meet my friends and then proceeds to upload pictures on Instagram tagging his/her friends and the caption goes brrrrrrr.(Including me but I went out when the situation was a little bit normal plus taking proper precautions.)

Anyways we are diverting from the topic(Ugh),so we are gonna talk about games which I personally have played and my reviews about it:

  1. VALORANT

"Trust me on this Valorant is super duper fun. I had a swell time playing this game and to be honest I was really new to the concept of PC FPS shooter games(no prior experience in CS:GO)but I learnt my way around and grinded out the whole of 2021.The games is evolving and sometimes frustrating to play but I would recommend you to start off by playing it with your friends."

You must be wondering, Can my PC run it??

  • Well sir you are in luck today because the game doesn't ask more than the following requirements:

  • I personally run the game on:

RAM: 4GB RAM

Processor: Intel i-5 10th Gen

Graphics: Intel UHD Graphics(with latest updated drivers)

Windows version: Windows 11

I would like to add, that people who are eligible to upgrade to Windows 11 I would recommend you not to as it still has many bugs and will require some time until they are all fixed.(It's all up to personal preference.)

My game clocks around 60 frames per second which is quite decent after running some windows optimizations, follow this video if you want a dramatic FPS Boost and less in-game stutters:


2. CS:GO( Counter Strike: Global offensive)


"Well this Game is the daddy version of the previous one. The OG game/the most popular game where it all started from(the origin). The game which produced big names like SHROUD,HIKO,SCREAM,MIXWELL,S1MPLE and these are just a few names on the list that I can think of!! It's definitely a game you do not want to miss out on."

If you have played Valorant and no experience as such with CS:GO then it might be a little difficult as the game mechanics differ a lot compared to both. As of such beginners who want to play this game, I am happy to tell you that you will thoroughly enjoy it and actually feel the adrenaline rushing through your veins. You see it all unfolding curl by curl in front of your eyes- "How heroes were made from a game like this!!"

  • And again you would be wondering "Can my potato PC run it?"

The answer is yes. Well the game doesn't ask much from you and I think the PC requirements are way below par(giving you decent FPS and minimal lag issues):

  • CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo E6600 / AMD Phenom X3 8750 or better

  • RAM: 2 GB

  • HDD: 15 GB of storage space

  • GPU: Video card must be 256 MB or more and should be a DirectX 9-compatible with support for Pixel Shader 3.0

There you go MUCHACHO!!!

"Stay tuned for 'Part 2.' I will post it soon. Till then Stay home, Stay safe and happy gaming!!



 
 

Is Valorant's New Agent 'NEON' broken??(EPISODE 4,ACT 1)

Valorant Developers have again done a fantastic job at keeping the game fresh and running.


I think we all appreciate that Riot Games never disappoint us with new updates and agents added to the game. But the question that arises here is that- 'Have they done a little too much??'



Take a look at the Agent teaser yourself:

"The agent hasn't been released yet but early access was given to some creators and the gameplay we received from them was more than enough to say that this agent is 'BROKEN!!!'."

  • Take a look below at the early access gameplay and be ready for it because your minds are gonna be blown away:

We all know that we say this at every agent release that its 'BROKEN' but not now, we actually mean it. Her ultimate ability is so overpowered if put in the right hands and if he/she is good at tracking his/her aim.

  • Take a look at her abilities down below:



Go check out the Spotify playlist Valorant has made for us to listen to and VIBE TO THIS NEW AGENT!!!


Fans are all hyped up to play this agent as we all await the Episode 4 Act 1 to drop out on January 11,2021.

  • The new ACT Battlepass is yet to be out and it is one of the best so far we all have seen. It only costs a 1000VP which is quite reasonable for anyone to buy.(in respect to Indian currency-INR)


OMG!!JUST LOOK AT THESE SKINS:

P.S- I am buying it!! Are you??

"Let us know what you think about the new agent and the Battlepass being added to the game!!"
 
 

How Valorant is Taking over the Esports scene

Valorant is a 5v5 tactical based FPS shooter by Riot Games (whom have been known for their most popular game – ‘League of legend’.) which can only be played on PC’s for now but Riot Games is working on to release the game on both Android and IOS devices by early of 2022.

The video below shows the origin of Valorant and how the concept was grasped:

The game was popping off at an increasing rate since the beta version. Many CS players saw potential and predicted the boom the game would experience which is very evident considering the present scenario Valorant has provided to Esports.


Tyson Ngo also known as 'Tenz' explained why he chose to quit CS:GO and focus his career in the Valorant competitive scene:

  • “I’ve decided to go pro [in VALORANT] because when I was playing the beta, I realized I haven’t had as much fun as I was having in a long time, Although it might be seen as risky to switch games, I feel like the future of this game is very bright.”


Tenz currently now plays for 'Sentinels'(representing the NA region) playing alongside many ex-CS players like Shazam, Sick, Dapr and Zombs. They won the Valorant Stage 2 Masters- Reykjavík and took a mammoth price pool money of $200,000. Tenz won the most important MVP award in the whole event for his performance.


What makes Valorant so unique?

Riot games might have taken the general idea from CS:GO but it offers its own challenges. Players have shown massive interests towards the game and have combined styles to make plays. They have made some insane strategies and have shown the audience that Valorant is the underdog of the whole esports scene and this game has the potential to boost esports as a career.


The stats below prove the fact that Valorant is gaining the high ground and soon will be one of the most competed games in history:

  • In January 2021, the game's global viewership reached more than 61 million hours watched across leading live streaming platforms, an increase of 27 percent compared to the previous month. In March 2021, Valorant was among the most streamed games on Twitch, with 3.26 million hours streamed on the platform worldwide.
