Underestimating Terramorphous the Invincible

The 'invincible' has always been merely a title. Whatever video game characters that call themselves invincible can always be beaten quite easily. That's not the case with Terramorphous.

Indie Game of the Week: Total Fucking Psychopath

Everything about this retro arcade style freeware game is pretty simple. You play as a maniac who believes everybody is turning into maggots (something like that) and you’re out to stop the madness. As dead bodies begin to pile up on the streets, the cops begin to show up. The more people you kill, the more of cops will arrive in their attempt to arrest -just kidding- shoot you down. Also, you must continuously kill people so that your psychosis meter won’t reach zero, because that means game over. Sounds fun, huh? It is.

Bong the Medic Gun

In both Borderlands games, I always reserve the last weapon slot as the slot for weapons I called the “medic guns”. A medic gun is a weapon that is always equipped, but it’s not necessarily used all the time like the rest of the three equipped weapons. In fact, it’s rarely used, except to score a Second Wind, which is why it’s called the medic gun.

Vladof Sniper Rifles

I won’t completely disagree with you if you think that the weapon manufacturer Vladof never actually produces sniper rifles, but rather just assault rifles that look like sniper rifles. It makes sense because the only differences that these “sniper rifles” have with the regular assault rifles are that they have smaller ammo clips and they are equipped with a long-range scope. Aside from that, you can use these sniper rifles the same way you do an assault rifle because their fire rates are as high as that of the regular assault rifles.

You can still keep the term “sniper rifles” for the ones manufactured by Vladof, if you wish. Or you can call them “sniper-assault rifle hybrids”. Or “assault rifles that look like sniper rifles”. It doesn't matter. They are still as awesome.
