Inkheart

This was a letdown. It was about a guy who had a gift called “Silver Tongue” in which he could read a book, and whatever he read came to life. For instance he read Ali Babba and the forty thevies and the treasure came out of the book! Even with the clever story I found it very bland and did not enjoy it very much, me and my friend kept looking at eachother and thinking (Seriously?). Watch it? No, I watch so many movies so I can keep you from wasting your time with the ones like these, (That was a joke, I watch them cause I love 70 percent of them!). I give this a 30/100. I found that I only liked the part where the shadow lord came up from the ground, the detail of the effects matched Terminator: Salvation!

Beat it: Fracture

Not my favorite game, but I beat it none the less. I got more and more into it as I progressed. My favorite part was when I Had to combine my Terrain deformation to make one beam cross the room, it was a Blast!

Play time? 5 hours The disappointment was the stupid bosses, each one looked, and played, identically!

Play time? 5 hours

Difficulty? Easy

Favorite part? The puzzle beam part

Least Favorite? The Bosses

Ninja blade/X360

This game is so close to being my favorite plat former, but one huge flaw keeps it from greatness,you have to beat a whole level for it to save! For example, I was almost done with a level when I had to leave, so all me work was done for nothing! The story goes like this, Tokyo is attacked by some kind of infectious zombies. And the only person that can save them is a ninja named Ken, if it sounds cheesy, that’s because it is. The game plays out like this, you have three different swords a fast, a medium, and a slow. You also have three different Ninjitsues, Fire, wind, electric. You also have “Ninja Vision” Which basically slows down time, speeds up you, and point out your enemies weaknesses. There are also QTE where you have to press the corresponding buttons to dodge and attack stuff. Another thing that makes this unique is that each level features 3 bosses that each have special attacks and force you to use interesting strategy’s! The Highlight for me are the “Todame” finishing moves, which is when you beat a boss a QTE pops up and you pummel them into submission, they are….. Majestic to watch. Play it? A bad saving operation is not enough reason to not play this memorable classic. I give this a 80/100 rating, the Saving cost this 10 points!

The Pink Panther 2

I had a great many laughs at the first PP, so I thought the second one would deliver. I was kinda dissapointed. The oveall plot was not intruging, at all, and the characters were shallow and stupid. In fact, the only 2 good actors were Steve martin and his Boss (don’t remeber his real name). I chuckled a good 20 + times on the first one but on the second one I laughed around 10 times, that is not good enough for a 2 hour movie. Watch it? I you’ve seen the first, dont exspect too much, if you hav’nt, you might enjoy it more. I give this a 45/100. (P.S. The parts with Mrs. Barringer were hilarious!)

MJ…… Dead???

This hit me so fast. Did anybody think the Micheal Jackson was gonna die in the next 10 years? I thought he would live to be, like, 75 at least. This is probelay the biggest death, besides presidents, ever. I loved his music.  its  to bad he screwed up his life because of fame.

My fave top 5 MJ songs:

Beat it

Give me one more chance

Thriller

Bad

Abc

My heart goes out to Michale’s friends, family, and fans.

Uncharted: Drakes Fourtune/PS3

You might love it, you might hate it, either way, you will love the graphics! You play as Nathan Drake, a Tomb raider who just has to get treasure on a island with hundreds of pirates! The first thing I noticed was the difficultylevel, on easy u start to die after only 3 or 5 shots, and you will die, a lot! Once you get pasted that little fact you can move on and enjoy your gaming experience! I like this game but you might be put out a little by the odd controls, switching bettween guns is so mysterious you have to look it up in the manualto find out! This is a game with some of the best graphics, ever! The forests are so lush and the ruins just pop out at you. Play it? I had a great time drooling over the graphics and beating baddies with my sweet shotgun. I give this a 75/100.

Quake Wars: Enemy Teritory/X360

This is a FPS that I love for some reason. this game is so obviously geared tored Xbox live, its almost comical. Instant action and Campaign are almost Identical, You are either EDS or Boorg (Good or bad). You get dropped into a battle, and, depending whether your good or bad, have to protect or build structures. There are different classes, each with there own special ability, the Mechanic (Build bridges, lasers, and watch towers) The Medic (Heal if you die) The artillery (A super solder who is tougher). It is really fun to see someone building something only to kill them before they finish or blow up a tank with a grenade. The only thing is that you feel like your playing online, even when your in campaign, for instance, I was building a bridge when I was killed, and on my screen it said “you got killed by”The Noob”. What game gives your enemies, online names? Play it? Despite the feeling of “This is it?” and a stupid campaign, I  really had fun with this game. I give this a 70/100.

Blacksite: Area 51/PS3

This game got crappy reviews, and I can see why! You play with a squad of agents trying to take down an evil company that is mutating people, Resident evil style. Even though it was fairly creepy, It didn’t compare to games such as Nazi Zombies. Secondly, it is a total cakewalk, You can stand and get hit by 7 different people and 2 turrets, for a good 15 seconds before you even start to black out (Die). Also, the game is kinda dull, you go to a room, kill everyone in it, and go to the  next one, with rare vehicle parts to brakethe pattern. What really made it dull was opening doors, for some dumb reason you cant open doors yourself, you have to order your very slow group to open it for you, this was a dumb idea by the makers. Play it? For a Teen FPS game, its decent. I give this a 40/100.
