Its been a busy week people but I would like to present to you your comment section

This game was an early Xbox 360 release but its replay value is high. Not to mention that you can download it for $20 bucks over Xbox Live or get it used from Gamestop for $17

Commenting Ability

Hey everybody! I’ve had a ton of request for the ability to comment on my reviews and web authoring abilities so this blog shall be your vessel until I can find a suitable host. Yahoo! doesn’t allow me to use the code that would allow you to comment right on my site but thats off topic.

The most recent update revolves around Dante’s Inferno which is an excellent game. I can’t give it the attention it truly deserves until I finish Mass Effect 2 and Final Fantasy XIII.

I won’t go into details about the game here, thats not what this blog is for. This blog is just the life revolving around the game play and a place for me to interact with you. Leave your comments here and I’ll promise to respond

Losing Time

I have picked up the new Final Fantasy XIII and it beautiful but I can’t seem to keep track of time. Everytime I say I’m going to stop in an hour 3 hours go by. So far its been 10 hrs since I said I was going to stop playing . Here are some great screen shots of my current area.

I hate how I haven’t fought with three people in my party since these shots were taken 2 hrs ago…thats current isn’t it
I miss my crew

Unplugged

Hey everbody!

I’ve been trying to give my PSP a little more attention lately since I typically only use it to watch movies, listen to music and store some of my favorite images. I picked up Rock Band Unplugged and its great.

Head phones are a must with this game! If you want to learn more about it check out Max@Play | http://www.maxatplay.com

Where will you be?

Where will you be?

The zombie apocalypse is coming! Will you be prepared? Max@Play wants to know what would you do if you woke up at the beginning of the zombie apocalypse. Would you rush out to save loved ones? Would you loot and plunder thru all the chaos? Would you lock and block all the doors and windows and wait it out? Would you try to make it to the mall?

We will post our plans after your feed back

If you still need training for the zombie apocalypse try playing Left 4 Dead….there is safety in numbers

Who can you depend on when the zombies come?

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?

If you need more training for the zombie apocalypse try Left 4 Dead

More on the Recession

For a gamer, the recession can hurt us pretty hard and cause us to cut back on what we love to do most. Thats play video games for those of you who had to ask.  I’ve been taking steps to get as much enjoyment out of my games as possible such as replaying on harder difficulties, going for special achievements, changing up who I play my multiplayer games with, and using various game altering codes, i.e. cheats.

I have also run into the instance where I’ve played a game to death and if I have to replay this level one more time I think I’ll shoot my Xbox360. Here are a few recession smashing tips for acquiring something new to play.

Trade Ins can be a great way to get rid of the old and bring in the new. Stores such as Gamestop offer who in-store credit for your used games. Then you can use this credit to buy either a brand new game or other less expensive used games. The only downside to this that I can see is the a game that you feel is great may not bring in the value that you hoped.

Ebay and other online stores are a great way to get new games that are at a really low cost. An added bonus is that since this is an internet based purchase you can have your new, or new to you, game shipped right to your door. I do want to caution you that everyone may not care for their games as you did so some of the actually conditions of the games may be questionable. To avoid bad dealers or rip off artist. search for someone that has done a reasonable amount of business or has been doing business for a while. These people have worked hard to make a name for themselves and wouldn’t want to ruin that by trying to rip you off.

Game renting is always a good option. Not for me, but for other people. I live in the real world and it takes more than 5 days to enjoy a game. There are places that offer extended rental such as Blockbuster, Hollywood Video, and my chart topper GameFly. These places offer you unlimited rental time for a recurring monthly fee. The fee is usually less than the cost of a new game but I do want to point out by going this route you have just created a new monthly bill.

What I have been doing is going download crazy. Xboxlive offers a plethora of free downloads and trial games. There’s not to much that can beat free in my book. The obvious downside to these trial games is that they are TRIAL GAMES or DEMOS. For most of the games you won’t get more than 10 minutes of real game play. Just enough to make you want to break the piggy bank and go out and buy it. The second downer is the need for a high speed internet connection. If you don’t already have one now I wouldn’t tell you to start a $60 a month bill for free trial/demo games.

My final tip for this blog is having good friends that play games. When you have friends that game you can usually find a game you can borrow, for free. Trading games with friends cost you nothing and there is no real time limit. Just take care of your friends property and they will take care of yours.

I hope this helps you beat these hard economic times

Withdrawls

Good Afternoon Ladies and Gentleman,

Its been a busy week working on my own website maxatplay.com and job hunting. Being busy means my time to play video games is limited to almost non existent. I was able to check out a few demos this week, but no serious game time like I’m accustomed to.  Its driving me freaking crazy. I swear I have the shakes from not signing on to Xboxlive and pwn a few noobs in Halo 3 or knocking down some walls Red Faction. I can hear Niko from GTA4 calling me for back up. This is serious! Gaming is just like eating, you can only go for so long without it.
