Battlefield Hardline Campaign Rant

Lets put the multiplayer aside for a second and lets talk about Hardline's story mode. To get you in the mood, it's absolute shit. Like, really, REALLY SHIT. Let me get the only thing that I think is good  about it out of the way first, it feels different from any other Battlefield campaign, and I think that's a good thing when your story is way different than any previous ones. Solid gun mechanics and satisfying sound effects make for a nice firefight here and there, but other than that, Hardline's story-line is a nonsensical, dumb, super-corny, linear piece of shit.

     You play as officer Nick Mendoza caught up in Miami's fierce drug war. With your delightful partner, Khai. Hmmm, what is the motto of every police force? Something along the lines of, I don't know, "To Protect and to Serve"? Well, if you think you're gonna be doing any of that in Hardline you are wildly mistaken. You can freeze enemies with your cool badge here and there, but other than that, you can blast away and kill every motherfucker in the building, making you feel like the robber and not like the cop. Don't worry though, officer Mendoza will make the corniest fucking joke once in a while to lighten up the mood. For Christ's sake, I though I was listening to lines borrowed from 90's sitcoms and cop films. Dialogue was DREADFUL in this game. Another moment in the game were you are reminded of what shit you're playing is when you drive a car, it's awful, it feels like you're only supposed to step on the gas and relax while explosions and all kinds of different shit happen all around you. Your cop or robber buddies in the game always talk to your character like they are talking to you, as a gamer. They always say stuff like: "Whole lotta dudes there, we can take them like this, like that, or head on", here you go brain-dead gamer, if you are not smart enough to figure simple shit like that on your own, have this guy talk you through it and you can just shoot some guns and freeze some bad guys!

     Apart from nice gun mechanics and pretty graphics, this campaign of Battlefield Hardline is absolute shit. If you want to play the multiplayer so bad, willing to pay full price for it, go ahead. Just keep in mind you are getting nothing other than that.

PC VS MAC

PC VS MAC

What other topic is more beaten to death than this one? Pc or Mac? Everybody get your pitchforks and torches out and throw them out the fucking window. I'm not here to stir up drama, but to state facts and personal opinions.

Everything has its pros and cons, well, almost everything. When it comes to tech though, everything is a pretty acceptable answer. Now we need to categorize this decision making process of which platform is superior. "Which one should I buy?", if this question is asked vaguely, please slap that person very hard in the face. If the question is more shaped like: "Which one should I buy if I want to do this...", then you're allowed to give them a proper answer without exerting violence.

Desktops 

The winner is pretty clear here, but let me keep you in suspense for a couple lines more. Let's face it, buying a PC is always more affordable. Truth is, you can build a Windows PC for way less money than buying a Mac Pro. You can build it yourself, pick out the parts and even put them together yourself, it's really not that hard!  Now you may say, "Hey you Mac hating douchebag! What if I don't want your shitty Windows OS?", don't worry I got you covered! You can build a Hackintosh computer pretty easily with a little bit of research. Quickly, for those of you who don't know what a Hackintosh is, It's essentially a custom built PC with Mac OS. You just have to be a little picky with your part-picking, but in the end of the day, you'll have a computer as strong as a Mac Pro, and as cheap as a PC! [Click here if you are interested]

Laptops

In this sector, the fight is more level. Mac laptops, Macbooks, are of course overpriced, but certainly quality devices. Since you can't really easily build a laptop as you can build a desktop computer, if you want to go Windows, you'll have to choose a pre-built one. Don't fret! There are thousands of options out there, with hundreds of companies providing you with multiple laptops to choose from. Like Asus, HP, Dell, Toshiba, Lenovo e.t.c. But when it comes to Mac laptops you have a small variety of powerful, beautifully designed, overpriced machines. To get a Macbook worth getting, you'll have to pay about 1000 bucks plus. When you can get the same horsepower for a better deal.

Operating System

Windows or Mac OS? If you are looking to game, grab Windows and get outta here! If you are looking for a stable working environment that doesn't deteriorate after time, grab Mac OS and get outta here! If you are looking for a combination of both, too bad there is no OS that you can game on that is as stable as Mac OS. You don't want to format your computer every one or two years so it can run as good as the first day you installed Windows on it? Go Mac OS. Do you want to game and have more customization in your life? Go Windows. As simple as that. Don't try and make gaming work on Mac people, at least not yet.

Synopsis

Hey, in the end, it's all about preference and what you want to do with your system. Want to do video/photo editing, surf the web, play a few games on a very stable clean OS? Buy a Mac, preferably a Macbook, no, scratch that, definitely a Macbook. Do you want a full gaming experience and everything to be optimized for your platform? Buy a PC, just a tip, build your own.
