The Amazing game of Teraria

Hey fellow gamers! This week I am going to talk about Terraria, if you don't know what that is then I shall educate you. Terraria is a sandbox game with 2-D pixel sprites as your character, set up in a platform-esque world. Some might compare it to Minecraft, another sandbox game, saying its a 2-D version of it, but after playing both, I've found that Terraria is on a higher level of complexity.

Let's start with the background...
Terraria was created by a guy that players of the game know as Redigit, or Red.
He has done a fantastic job with this game and continues to make it even better. Recently he has been working very hard to finish the game so he can start on his sequel to Terraria. Terraria 2 has been recently announced, but I'll talk about that more some other time.

Redigit took a break for a while coming back with update 1.2 which was huge, but before then he was working on the console and mobile versions of the game. Personally I didn't like the console and mobile versions near as much as the PC version but it still was an amazing idea. 


If any of you have a chance to get this game i strongly recremend it, you will be addicted for months once you get started. And the best thing is that there is no beating it, it just keeps going and going. If you truly get bored cause it gets too easy, just start another character and the the quest begins again. Here is a like to the Terraria Wiki page in case you need to look up how to craft something or just want to read up on all the different enemies and weapons.

Welcome to Professional Gaming Geeks blog

Hello my fellow geeks, this is a great place to find good game reviews and other tips and tricks for a variety of different games. Also if you find something interesting about a game you can send me a link and a comment about it so I can post it on here to show others of your finding.


To start out i found an amazing computer created by Origin that was made for Battlefield 4.


Here are the specs also:
Chassis: Corsair 350D
Motherboard: ASUS Gryphon Micro ATX
Liquid Cooling: Origin Frostbyte 120 Liquid Cooling
Processor: Intel i7 4770K with Professional ORIGIN PC Overclocking
Memory: Corsair 16GB 1866 MHz
Graphics Card: DUAL EVGA NVIDIA GeForce GTX 780s
Hard Drive: DUAL 128GB Samsung 840 Pro Series in RAID 0
Hard Drive 2: 1 TB SATA
Power Supply: 1050 Watt Corsair PSU
Optical Drive: 12X Blu-Ray Read/Write
Operating System: Windows 7 Ultimate

This is one of my personal favorite things about this computer because when you open it up everything is tucked away nicely giving it a very clean look. 


In this video Levelcap's Gaming explains how he sets up his computer for optimum efficiency for Battlefield 4. personally I love the way he sets it up so he can stand or sit while using his computer. If I had enough money i would set up my office similar to this.
