Story/Background
Another very cool online game for you to play is CABAL Online. The game was created by ESTsoft, these guys have a lot of experience in software development, CABAL is their only game for now. Don't think this game is made by amateurs, because these guys have created a wonderful game that has a grown a lot and has a stable place now, in online gaming world.
Some cool and unique features that no other MMORPGs have. If you are looking for a new fresh fantasy MMORPG to play, you must try this game. Here is a little background story that you can find on the official website along with all other info you will ever need.
Long ago, the CABAL cleansed the land with fury and destruction. Amidst the needless devastation, seven great masters of Force Power led the remaining survivors to rebuild.
Now, almost a thousand years later, the CABAL are puppeteering the evil again, breeding a child to be king and once again cleanse the land. It is up to you to face the invaders of Nevareth and uncover the conspiracy behind it...
Characters/Game modes
The game has just one human race, both genders that you can customize a little. Six classes which are: Warrior, Blader, Wizard, Force Archer, Force Shielder, Force Blader. The first three and the later three are very similar, but this lack of character variety disappears when you start playing the game.
Character and monster textures are quite detailed, very proportional. Movement, battle and skill animations were very impressive, anyone will enjoy watching these beautifully made animations over and over again.
Maps/Levels
CABAL Online may not have the biggest world for you to explore, maybe it does not feel big because of separated maps. The existing maps are truly amazing, very detailed. You won't get bored exploring them and you unlock more maps as you progress in the game. Worlds are very unique and have monsters for every level character. There is a "GPS System" that shows all the info you need to know about the area that you are in. From where your party members are to where are the best hunting grounds for your character, be sure to learn "GPS".
Items/Weapons/Gameplay
The gameplay of CABAL is very unique and exiting, there are many various quests to complete. They will take you all around different worlds. You will bash a lot of different monsters using a lot of cool weapons and special and unique skills. So many items that you will not know what are they used for and you will often find unseen items.
Weapon/armor wearing system is a similar to WoW, you can only wear weapons/armors when your strength or defense have reached a certain number, the armors are specific to your class. The battle system is very easy to pick-up and the skills system that adds a lot of fun to the game.
To add even more fun to the game, the world is divided in to two nations which have wars everyday. Whichever side you will choose, you will start to feel like your nation is better and cooler, you will start to hate the opposing nation and think they are just a bunch of noobs.
Sound/Music
There are probably not many people that could say a bad thing about music and sound effects of this CABAL Online, just because this game has one of the best soundtracks that you will come across. You can play this game only for that and you won't be disappointed.
Online Community/Help/Updates
Cabal Online may not be the most popular online game but it has a very helpful community, everyone is friendly and inviting. You will find all the help you need on the official CABAL website and forums. All the info you need to know about classes, items, monsters or quests is there on their website for you to access. CABAL is updated often and new items are always added, new events, even new worlds.
We recommend to play CABAL Online for everyone, because it is a cool online game that is only getting better and better. The game may lack some things but it more than meets your expectations on other things.

CABAL Online: The Revolution of Action
My online game doesn't work
We wanted to post some tips about game fixes, because there were and will be a lot of times that games that you download or buy don't work properly on you computer or they don't start at all. Don't let your hands down and delete the it, just because you have one game that works perfectly doesn't mean every game will. Read on carefully and always have this info in your head.
The very first tip is pretty simple, but a lot of us forget it and try to uninstall and re-install again our game or drivers. But the very first thing you should do is ask Google. Ask, maybe you are not alone with this problem, maybe there is a simple fix for it and you just pulled out half of your hair from your head for nothing.
The second thing is to search the official forum, not blindly post about how upset you are and ask if there is a fix, but to search and most of the times you will find your answer and fix your problem.
Have in mind that you may have a bad or outdated game client, if you have enough space it is a good idea to download another one, while you try to fix this one. Because usually you can download the game from a few mirrors including the official site. The best thing is just to try different mirrors and see how that works out, maybe try the same copy of the client on a different computer.
Be sure to try out all the possible settings of your computer. Maybe changing the game's resolution will work or changing your monitor's resolution, color depth, refresh rate. Anything you think may work, but be careful you may brake your computer for some stupid game, don't risk too much.
Always have your video drivers and DirectX updated. Some games provide you with driver packages or links to latest driver download pages.
If you really, really want to play this game, you eventually will. You have to stay sharp and try rephrase your problems and keep on looking for the cause of the problem or a fix. Don't let your hands down, delete the game and decide that it will not work on your computer. Not until you search through out the forums and all over the internet, good luck!
We hope this info will help you and make you redownload some games again to try some settings or fixes. Your comments are always welcome. Don't forget to bookmark this site and sign-up for updates, so you won't miss a single post or review.
Private Game Servers
This post is about private servers. The info you need to know about them. What are private servers? What are they used for? Should you look for one or try to create and host one? We will try to answer these questions in this little post.
What is a private MMORPG server? It is just that, a server which doesn't belong to the official game website. A private server is usually run by a small group of individuals. It is hosted on one of the persons computers or is hosted by some web hosting company. The global server is the one on the official website.
Not many online games have private servers out there and in most cases you are not allowed to host them or create one. For some, if you follow certain rules you may host a private game server or play with your friends. No company will allow you to charge your players for playing or for anything in-game or modify any part of the game, they will catch and take you to court.
So why would anyone create a private server or play on one? There are a lot of reasons for this and there probably more than those we mention here. For the most, it takes a lot quicker to level up in private servers and items might be accessible that you can't get so easy on global servers. Maybe you want to run the game in your native language, play with players who speak your country's language. Maybe you have created a clan or a guild and want to practice your tactics, attack and defense strategies. Perhaps you would just like to play by yourself, maybe on LAN or just with friends, if it is possible of course.
The list of reasons can be longer, but those reasons can be enough for you to want to get a private server. Be completely sure you are allowed to undertake any activities that you want to and you won't get in trouble for doing something that you shouldn't have, even if it was an accident or not your fault. Don't try to blame us for anything.
We hope this post answered questions about private game servers. As always don't forget to come back for more useful info and great reviews!

More Info: Http://www.warhawk.com/
Story/Background
The first of its kind, only on Playstation 3, Warhawk brings a fast speed and action filled war for up to 32 people! This games takes the meaning of a word "Deathmatch" to another level. This game has no background stories, no missions to complete, it is about shooting at your friend's butt from sky and earn those big points, so you can rank high and be well respected war machine among other Warhawk players.
Characters/Game modes
The game has many customizing features for your soldier to make it look bad and unique, you will unlock even more cooler gear as your rank grows. This is just one thing that keeps you wanting to play this game more. Sadly just a few game modes available, those are: Deathmatch, Team Deathmatch, Capture the flag and Zones. Simple game modes that every player is familiar with. Zones mode requires for your team to get more zones and defend them from the opposing team, which earns a you lot of points. The game brings out a new level of online war multi-player gaming, it is all about the fast gameplay.
Maps/Levels
The game has five very very big maps, you can customize them to have a different look and feel, so it feel like another level altogether. The environments are really big and very well designed both looking great from ground and air, unfortunately they are not very intractable. The explosions look very good and everything is clear and easy to see.
Items/Weapons/Gameplay
The best part of Warhawk for PS3 is the gameplay itself. Fast paced war is all you see and hear around you, things exploding in the air and on the ground. The creators, concentrated on gameplay of this game, they did very well on that. The game can be played with up to 32 people including you, you can have a real mini-war in the air or on the ground or into the air and from the air to the ground, it's like never ending fun. The weapons are balanced very well, so there is always a way to beat your opponent. The game also supports voice chat, which just adds more fun to the play. The thing that will keep you coming back for more and more is the complex ranking system this game has, you earn points from completing various tasks, like getting 500 kills. The controls might be a bit stiff, but once you get used to them, Warhawk will satisfy your urge for fighting meaningless wars.
Sound/Music
The music is good and adds up to this fast experience, but really, all you hear is explosions and gunfire. Sound effects are well composed and realistic, this game would be just fine only using them.
Online Community/Help/Updates
The game is gaining more audiences everyday and the this game's community is growing very fast. Just because it is so fun to play once you get everything. There is a lack of help and explanations for the game which may be frustrating at times, but once you get everything, there is no going back. New updates are made frequently, new weapons and maps are being added as expansion packs, be sure not to miss them.

Story/Background
Welcome to our first ever review! And what better online game to start with other than WoW. There are uncountable amounts of reviews and info about this game, but we feel that we too must have a review of a game like this. There is no other game that has such huge amount of players who play day-in, day-out. World of Warcraft community reached over 10 million players. WoW is based in a fantasy world, where two factions and the races on either side, battle over controlling the world. This game delivers in every way, it stood as a base for many games that are on the market now. Prepare to lose your current life and lose $15 every month from now onwards!
Characters/Game modes
You will find a character that will suite your likes or your visualized hero, because there are many to choose from, also because only certain factions, races, classes can complete certain quests or wear certain items. This will make you want to come back and create more characters that have different abilities, maybe a race from different faction. Only to play these characters, to complete their quests will take you ages. Characters have this toon-feel and are very detailed, animated very good. So good, that you forget to look at your character, while you gaze at these jaw-dropping surroundings.
Maps/Levels
The size of the maps are enormous, they will take you months to explore to the fullest. It is also has interactive features like trains or boats that you can travel on, things that move when you touch them. There are enough places to see things to do besides of fighting and raising you character.
Items/Weapons/Gameplay
Everything about this game makes it unique, including gameplay. Controls are pretty easy to pick-up and you will start to understand what is happening around you during a fight pretty quick. Only after a while will you start getting differences between other players, what gives them the edge over others. There are vast amounts of weapons, armors, magic spells and items that make the gameplay so unique. There are many ways to become stronger, maybe you prefer collecting and crafting items over fighting monsters. Eventually you will create a clan of your own or join one and fight the other faction for world domination.
Sound/Music
Not much to say about the music, except that it is wonderful and makes the game experience even more jaw-dropping. The unique music just makes the game more attractive and playable.
Online Community/Help/Updates
This game is growing all the time, new people are joining everyday. You should find a play partner because the game is much more enjoyable than when you play it alone. The WoW player community is bigger than some small countries. All your questions were probably asked and answered many timesbefore you thought of them, you can find all the help you need for this game just by doing simple Google searches. The game gets many updates and new expansion packs are being released often to keep the addicted gamers happy.
We think this game deserves a lot of high points and respect, because ten million people can't be wrong. If you are looking for a new game to play online with your friends, WoW should be in the top of your list. Try it for yourself, don't say that you don't like it before actually playing it. We rate it at 9.4, because there is always more room for improvement for Blizzard Entertainment. We recommend you at least play the trial because this game is what MMORPGs are about, no other online game is so big and successful. Here is a trailer of a new expansion pack Wrath of the Lich King!

Healthy Gaming Tips
Healthy gaming tips are pretty simple but very important to know and practice. Because you can throw away your social life and lock yourself in your dark flat or room and just play online games forever, but you still can't play games for long periods of time without letting your body rest... This post is just about that, how to play games and not get fat, stiff, pale, wearing glasses and so on, don't miss out on this info!
Your health is more important than any game, even if the game is more important than your real life, your health always comes first. Any game creating company or a game creator will tell you the same, because nobody wants to hear that somebody actually harmed their body or became blind over playing WoW.
Because human bodies can't act like computers and work 24/7, we need to eat food and sleep - we also must take breaks from playing, even if it means to literally asking your opponent to take a short break. Like in school you have ten minute breaks after your each period for your brain to cool off a little, you need breaks when you play games.
What breaks should those be? Nothing difficult. Every hour or so, you just have to stand up from your playing position, twist and stretch your body for a bit. Walking to the kitchen getting a drink will do sometimes. Just doing a few sit-ups or just stretching your body and a few eye exercises like, concentrating on something in the distance for a while. The point to do this is so your body circulates your blood better.
You just need to do these simple things so your body does not get used to staying in this one position. Because after a few years of sitting in one position you can have a scar on your butt too. These tips may not seem that important and nothing bad will happen if you skip them, but if you think you can play for hours non-stop you should do these exercises to stay healthy, otherwise what is the point of being number one player if you can't show your real face to the world because it is so hairy, fat, ugly and afraid of sunlight.
We hope these tips will help you stay healthy and look great, while play online games for weeks in your mom's basement. Come back soon or more great info here on coolest online game reviews.
Gameplay Security Tips for Newbies
This post is about basic dos and don'ts that you have to remember if you are just starting out to play online multi-player games. Simple tips like, what can you do to protect yourself against in-game fraud protect your account. Don't miss this very important post.
The most important thing to remember is that for some of these games you pay a monthly fee and that it is your hard earned money, you must protect your account all the ways possible. You must not give out any private info about yourself or your account even if you know this character for some time.
There are players who sit there and wait for newbies, then involve them into their mind games and then one day you can't login or when you login, you notice that all of your items are gone. The only thing you can do about it is complain to the admins, shout the name of the player that stole everything from you across the servers. None of that will help you regain what you lost, the end point is that it is your own fault.
Don't share passwords with your friends, your friends might not play as careful as you do and in the end you may regret sharing your account, in some games that is even prohibited and you may lose your account over something stupid that you didn't do.
Don't ever try to buy items or something in-game with real money, no game supports these type of activities but not all can control fraud completely, it is up to you to be careful and don't fall for these traps.
Don't start cheating or buying cheat systems. If you get caught, which you will, you will be banned for life. There are no cheats for online games, the cheats that are out there usually use scripts and codes that abuse the servers and these activities are very visible to admins, it's just a matter of time before they ban you.
We hope these simple tips will help you to have more secured and fun gameplay, don't forget to book mark our blog!
