Acid Trip

Geometry Wars 2Just spent about an hour playing Geometry Wars 2 on Xbox 360 and realized that I may just gotten high and didn’t know it. The game is loaded with enough colors and explosions to send you into an epileptic seizure not to mention the trance music playing in the background. The game is addictive and if it wasn’t for the weird fluid pouring from my ears as a direct result from Gameplay I’d still be playing. I lve downloadable content and yu should to. Check out more DLC at Max@Play.

The Apocalypse

How do you think the world is going to end? It is going to end but how? I think its going to end by means of zombie apocalypse. Thru some weird freak of nature, chemical spill, or government testing the world is going to be over run by the living dead. Will these soulless creatures being brain hungry carnivores or mindless husk as depicted in many films in the past. Or will they be fast moving, angry savages from more recent films. I think they are going to be just like the zombies in Left 4 Dead. They will have the mob mentality and usually out of it…that is until they are excited and smell warm blood. Have you been training?

Persistence and Dedication

Before I begin let me set the stage for you.

     This battle takes place on the ice covered tundra known as The Chasms. Set on the hardest difficulty, Legendary Mode, I want to once and for all settle this skirmish between The Arbiter, played by Halo Wars A.I., and Captain Cutter, played by yours truly. I’m expecting a cake walk of a battle, seeing that I have been undefeated for the last 20 or so battles. 15 minutes into the battle I am wiped clean off the battlefield by The Arbiters all out attack.

     So, Legendary Mode in Halo Wars is no joke, just like in Halo 3. My feelings were hurt and I know I wasn’t jusy going to go to bed defeated so I tried again. From 10 p.m. to 3 a.m. I was being destroyed like never before. Humbled and tired I retire for the evening.

     1 a.m. I’m up pumped and ready to kick some covenant butt. And for the first 3 hours of game play it seemed like an instant replay of the past night.  I tried focusing on building my supplies to afford an even amount of Good Technology and Good Solidiers.  CRUSHED! I tried the numbers game and built the largest military force I ever built without focusing on tech. CRUSHED! I even tried dumping everything in to technology…CRUSHED!

     You would think after all that I would have quit or at least backed down to Heroic Mode. Not me, I don’t know the meaning of the phrase back down or give up, because I can’t find my dictionary.  What I did do was cheat. Bountiful Harvest is an in game cheat that allows your supplies to accumulate 25% faster. This allowed me to spend more in both the major areas. At about 9 p.m. I defeated the Arbiter in  our 1 on 1 skirmish.

Yay me!

Hardcore Gaming/Prototype pt. 2

Welcome back everyone!

You would think after all this time I would have finished Prototype and could give you my final review of the game. The game leaves room for you to get distracted with side missions, races, and the beloved free roam, lets just say I roamed freely. I sat down in front of my Xbox 360 at 6pm and when I decided I was done playing for the night it was almost 4am. I failed the helicopter mission enough times to get pissed off and switch games for a bit, Halo Wars if you were wondering.

(Spoiler Alert)

During the helicopter mission you have to eliminate multiple helicopters before they make it out of the city.  One of the helicopters has the commander in it but they never reveal which one it is and if any one helicopter makes it out, you fail. The best way to take down the helicopters would be to use another helicopter to fire missiles. In the event you can’t get a helicopter, I found using my whip technique to sky jack the target helicopter worked just fine.  After I  completed the mission, I started going for all of the achievements in the game.  

Most Recent Achievements:

Surface-To-Air Achievement :         10GP

You’ve shot down 50 helicopters while driving armor

On Instinct Achievement:                         20GP

You’ve completed the Mother Boss Battle

 

In The Web Achievement:                                20GP

You’ve consumed 50 Web Targets

I’m just wondering whats the longest amount of time you spent playing a video game of any kind?

Stay tuned for updates and the conclusion

Prototype Review

Good Afternoon Gamers! This is my first post here but I’m not going to delay what I have to say. I have dedicated the last 2 weeks of my life to climbing buildings, consuming infected, throwing military tanks, and scaring civilians. Prototype is currently the best free roaming game I’ve played since Spider-man 2. Activison has done a marvelous job on putting together a great game. Alex Mercer is our Anti-Hero and he has no memory of who he is. All he knows is that he is no longer human and he is going to kill who ever did this to him, and anybody that gets in his way. Personally I wouldn’t be upset at all if I could leap 100ft in the air carrying Tank above my head. Not to mention I can use my limbs as an form of non-projectile weaponary. The game play is fluid with excellent collision sensoring. And the story and transition is engaging. I have found a few glitches that have caused me to reset my game. The most annoying of the glitches is during a mission if I wonder too far from the path they want me on, Alex would just sink into the ground and disappear from the screen. It pissed me off for awhile but it only takes place during the later stages. Other than that, I see no problems with this game. Except that I still can’t turn my hand into a 5ft blade that can slice thru a helicopter. More to come….
