I apologize for the lack of posting last week. I was house sitting and did not have access to my computer. Don't fret my pretties, I have returned to tell you of my gaming adventures.<br />

I have been really jumping around in the gaming department. For a second time, I've picked up <i>Assassins Creed IV: Black Flag</i> despite my complaints in its <a href="http://gizmosarsenal.blogspot.com/2014/05/waitguysim-still-here.html#comment-form" target="_blank">post</a>. For some reason I am doing all the things again that I said that were pointless. I don't even know how it happened.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://s1168.photobucket.com/user/ownhero8/media/Confused-Little-Girl-Is-At-Loss-For-Words_zps1536d63f.gif.html" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;" target="_blank"><img alt=" photo Confused-Little-Girl-Is-At-Loss-For-Words_zps1536d63f.gif" border="0" src="http://i1168.photobucket.com/albums/r484/ownhero8/Confused-Little-Girl-Is-At-Loss-For-Words_zps1536d63f.gif" height="145" width="320" /></a></div>
I also picked up <i>GTA Online</i> again. My console was being a strange one and my internet just kept failing no matter what. Then a couple of updates happened and I am back! Lock up your planes, trains, and automobiles...Im back to fuck some shit up.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://s1168.photobucket.com/user/ownhero8/media/work5_zpsb9896b26.gif.html" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;" target="_blank"><img alt=" photo work5_zpsb9896b26.gif" border="0" src="http://i1168.photobucket.com/albums/r484/ownhero8/work5_zpsb9896b26.gif" height="220" width="320" /></a></div>
Those two aside, I had an opportunity to take a gander at the Steam Summer Sale (as I hope many of you did the same) and picked up a few games. One of those being the fairly popular <i>The Wolf Among Us</i>:<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I had seen some footage of this game previously and was very eager to play it. I also loved<i> The Walking Dead </i>series so I knew I would be a fan of this one. I was extremely excited to see it was on sale and couldn't pass it up. I'm glad I took the chance. </div>

I have only gotten through two episodes so there really is not TOO much I can say about this, but I am quickly headed into the third so no one spoil this for me..or else!!</div>

I will say if you are looking for a game where all you do is punch and kick, then I suggest maybe <a href="http://gizmosarsenal.blogspot.com/2014/06/brutally-alright-so-far.html" target="_blank">another game</a>. This is very strongly story based and done so in such a creative way. This is one that really drags you in...you just can't stop until you find out who did what.<br />

The idea that these innocent childhood fables are all disturbed individuals that live in NYC just amazes me. In a sense, it ruins every story you were ever told because of how messed up most of these fables actually are. I think I am okay with that... However, one of my favorite stories happens to be a stripper/prostitute in this game...so that's fun...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Again, there really is not TOO much I can say about this one. Not just because I have not played it fully but also because if I were to say much more I would be giving away information vital to the game! EVERYTHING IS IMPORTANT! Now that is the kind of game I can appreciate and fall in love with. I think I already have.<br />

With that said, I am off to find some food and hopefully play the next episode. Have a good week everyone! And as always...<br />

<div>
It is Tuesday and I am thinking that this will be the day every week that I post a new blog. How do we feel about that? I feel good about it so...it's a date!<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://s1168.photobucket.com/user/ownhero8/media/Phil-Thumbs-Up_zps377178c3.gif.html" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;" target="_blank"><img alt=" photo Phil-Thumbs-Up_zps377178c3.gif" border="0" src="http://i1168.photobucket.com/albums/r484/ownhero8/Phil-Thumbs-Up_zps377178c3.gif" height="173" width="320" /></a></div>
I am not saying that every week I will have played a new game. That is impossible for me to do so every now and again I will just post random things. All gaming and nerdy related things, obviously. I wont let you down, so lets do this!</div>
<div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://s1168.photobucket.com/user/ownhero8/media/hell-yeah-gif_zps79a4baa4.gif.html" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;" target="_blank"><img alt=" photo hell-yeah-gif_zps79a4baa4.gif" border="0" src="http://i1168.photobucket.com/albums/r484/ownhero8/hell-yeah-gif_zps79a4baa4.gif" height="134" width="320" /></a></div>

This last week I did try a new game. One that you may have heard of called<i> Brutal Legend</i>!!!!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.youtube.com/embed/Zxnho1yTjRo?feature=player_embedded' frameborder='0'></iframe></div>
<div>
When this first came out some years back I was definitely interested in playing it but then time went by and I never got around to it. Then, one day, it just made itself known while I was in GameStop for a very low price. It was silly NOT to get it. </div>
<div>
Now...I am going to be honest with you here. I have not played it fully. I really am not sure how far into the game I actually am...but I do not think I have gotten very far at all. These are just some of my first impressions based on what I have had to do.
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://s1168.photobucket.com/user/ownhero8/media/giphy_zpsee6c2961.gif.html" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;" target="_blank"><img alt=" photo giphy_zpsee6c2961.gif" border="0" src="http://i1168.photobucket.com/albums/r484/ownhero8/giphy_zpsee6c2961.gif" height="181" width="320" /></a></div>
First what I want to say is: I will always love Jack Black. He is hilarious and adorable and can sing his heart out. The fact that he is a video game character just solidifies my love and is one of the main reasons I wanted this game. He did not let me down either. He just exudes cool rocker even when he is being a huge dork and offers up some very funny one liners.
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://s1168.photobucket.com/user/ownhero8/media/tumblr_mfi7u6hAsZ1r8um3mo2_500_zpsb75c1533.gif.html" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;" target="_blank"><img alt=" photo tumblr_mfi7u6hAsZ1r8um3mo2_500_zpsb75c1533.gif" border="0" src="http://i1168.photobucket.com/albums/r484/ownhero8/tumblr_mfi7u6hAsZ1r8um3mo2_500_zpsb75c1533.gif" height="179" width="320" /></a></div>
Second: The concept is simple yet entertaining. It is just a bunch of metal heads in a metal world fighting the bad with the addition of famous musicians voicing characters. How many other games can you say that you have to assemble A group of men with giant necks that head bang into things, whether it be an object or a person. It is such a ridiculous concept but a very enjoyable one. It is really just hack and slash game and that's it.
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://s1168.photobucket.com/user/ownhero8/media/Chuck-ut_zps2d8ded6c.gif.html" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;" target="_blank"><img alt=" photo Chuck-ut_zps2d8ded6c.gif" border="0" src="http://i1168.photobucket.com/albums/r484/ownhero8/Chuck-ut_zps2d8ded6c.gif" height="218" width="320" /></a></div>
I did feel there are some downsides though. Honestly, I felt bored sometimes. Maybe I wasn't motivated enough, but I had flashbacks to the first time I played <i>Borderlands</i>. Get a mission, get in your <b>awesome</b> vehicle, go to this place, go right back to where you came from, do another mission, fight this boss, go back to where you came from, do another very similar mission. It just felt a bit repetitive. But then we remember what happened with <i>Borderlands</i>, don't we?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://s1168.photobucket.com/user/ownhero8/media/tumblr_lv8wuq24mX1r07fzko1_400_zps9190ca3e.gif.html" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;" target="_blank"><img alt=" photo tumblr_lv8wuq24mX1r07fzko1_400_zps9190ca3e.gif" border="0" src="http://i1168.photobucket.com/albums/r484/ownhero8/tumblr_lv8wuq24mX1r07fzko1_400_zps9190ca3e.gif" height="317" width="320" /></a></div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
I also felt lost sometimes. I am not sure why certain things are happening. When it asks me to do something now or wait to do it later, is this because I am supposed to build up strength or an army first? I don't know. This wasn't fully explained to me. I don't know. I think I was missing some points here. I might be thinking too deeply about this when instead I should understand that the story is incredibly minimal and you're just supposed to have fun with it and just rock out!<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://s1168.photobucket.com/user/ownhero8/media/Ydzp8gB_zps90cdd50d.gif.html" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;" target="_blank"><img alt=" photo Ydzp8gB_zps90cdd50d.gif" border="0" src="http://i1168.photobucket.com/albums/r484/ownhero8/Ydzp8gB_zps90cdd50d.gif" height="180" width="320" /></a></div>
Only one way to find out if the story develops into something deeper or not....my thinking is not. But no big deal. I am definitely going to keep trying with this one so let me play that guitar solo that brings forth my car of death and just venture into this world of metal and badassery! With that said, I am off to check out more of these Steam sales! Happy Gaming!!!!</div>

...It's Mario...<br />
I got to finally try out the new <i>Mario Kart 8 </i>last week and it was everything I hoped it would be. <br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I am thoroughly enjoying going through every single emotion necessary when racing in that game. It starts with excitement, then fear, then anger, then shame, then acceptance, then back to excitement with it all ending in insane astonished laughter.</div>

The reason this circle of life occurs is because they made this version SOOOO much harder than the last Wii <i>Mario Kart</i>. I felt like a pro when it came to the last one.
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://s1168.photobucket.com/user/ownhero8/media/invincible1_zps68f067f9.gif.html" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;" target="_blank"><img alt=" photo invincible1_zps68f067f9.gif" border="0" src="http://i1168.photobucket.com/albums/r484/ownhero8/invincible1_zps68f067f9.gif" height="134" width="320" /></a></div>
This one though...I don't know. Maybe it's because it's because it's just so new and I am not accustomed to these new tracks yet. Or, it might be because they adjusted the steering and such and the twists and turns are way more complicated. Or maybe I just lost my magic <i>Mario Kart</i> touch....

Racing against the computer is one thing, but the online racing is an entirely new level of difficult. It seems as though they are trying to make it more of a fair shot for everyone...but it's not working. My friend and I just could not catch a break while playing against others. The closest I ever got to first place was third place for about half of one race. Hence the range of emotions! We just kept getting destroyed by a player named Ken...friggin Ken. (WE ARE COMING FOR YOU KEN!!! DO YOU HEAR ME!?!?!?)<br />

It is completely worth it though! The tracks are, for the most part, different. They decided to keep around some previous ones. Does someone want to explain to me why Moo Moo Meadows is still around?

They also introduced a fair share of new "weapon" choices from the boxes to help you get in the lead. There is this one thing you can get where you get a full bundle of weapons in one. It is a lovely feeling when they offer that to you...but also not so good because it's their way of telling you that you suck and need some help.<br />

They still offer a lot of the same though. You still get the shells including the 1st person seeker blue shell, the stars, the bullet, the bombs and I could go on and on. It is all there for the taking! <br />

Point is, this Mario Kart is a new kind of challenge that I am more than willing to take on. It just brings so much joy when I can sit with my friend and just race. Lots of laughter which is how a game like that should bring you. If you are ever interested in joining in, leave a comment or find me on steam and Ill give you the information! I get to be Lemmy or Larry though..<br />

....I figured that it was important I update you all on my little gaming world in between episodes of <i>Orange is the New Black</i>. I seem to be steamrolling through season two like it's my job.<br />

However, I had been able to beat a game before the new season came out called<i> inFAMOUS Second Son</i>:<br />

<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Let me just start by saying that throughout the game I kept repeating out loud, "Wow....the graphics on this game are so damn amazing." Seriously...and I was just talking about the characters alone. The city is cool and gigantic...I don't even know if I actually made it to every single spot on the map. There is just so much to do! </div>

Another thing I enjoyed were those powers!! In the trailer, they only show the smoke power. Which was alright. There is also a video power and a concrete power. But they are nothing in comparison to my favorite. THE NEON POWER!

This power makes you move really fast and run up the sides of buildings with no problem. I loved it so much it made me want to punch Fetch in the face for refusing to share it at first.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I should mention that I loved Fetch too. She had issues, but was such a bad ass. (And of course, I want to dye my hair again because of her.) </div>

I did have problems with this game though. Main one being this game, for me at least, was incredibly hard! There were a number of times I had to put the controller down and just walk away for a while because I kept getting killed and then angrier. There were a number of times where I said, "THIS IS IMPOSSIBLE! HOW DO THEY EXPECT ME TO WIN WHEN THEY GIVE ME NO WAY!" </div>

Then, I would walk back, try again, and realize I may have jumped the gun on the angry ranting as I had beaten it. In some ways I enjoy the fact that they challenge you so much, because you really need to figure out your tactics instead of just going for it. In other ways, I hated it because you can only die so much before losing your shit. And I died a lot.</div>

Which leads me to my next issue. Despite the fact that I spent so much time being killed, the actual story line is so very short. Sure, there are PLENTY of side missions to do to rid the city of the police power. But, I truly have never seen such a short and rushed story line in a video game. When the credits started rolling I just sat there with my mouth agape thinking to myself, "Really...that's all of it?"</div>

<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
My advice if you do decide to play this game, take your time and explore as much as you can before continuing the story. Silly me just wanted to finish it and then explore afterwards.</div>

With that said, it was a cool game. However, I am not putting it anywhere close to my favorites. Try it out and see how you feel for yourself. Then afterwards, you come back here and we have a nice little discussion. Sounds like a plan. </div>

Hope you are enjoying your week so far. I know I am! I ate french toast this morning. I am living the high life.<br />

Anyways, I know last week my post was a bit more on the serious side (long live Elizabeth) and as promised, I bring you my feelings on a much lighter topic. A little game called Knack.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I must say, I really enjoyed this one. The reviews on it are both good and bad, but I say it's fun. I might like it more though because the creator of Spyro was involved in it and that game was my SHIT growing up.

Knack is one of those games that is really simple and you don't have to put TOO much thought into. And lets face it, sometimes we need that kind of game just because we are stressed or too tired.

The concept is pretty cool. A main character made of relics that grows into a beast that destroys everything in its path. The little version of you is adorable, but when you get as many relics as you can, you feel invincible. Like nothing can stop you.

The cartoon feel to it is great too. Reminds you (well...at least in my case) just to have fun with it. You just run around and punch things. That is IT. And it's fantastic. Sure there is a storyline and stuff to collect (They are pretty forgettable.) But who cares!

One of my favorite things from the game though is actually the credits. I don't know why I loved it so much. I just sat there, watching with a big stupid smile on my face.

Honestly, there is not TOO much to say about this game. It's just thoughtless and fun. I suggest trying this one if you want to just tune out the world after a stressful day and don't really need to use your brain.

I hope all of you had a lovely Memorial Day, but let's get into the games, shall we??<br />
As I said in the post from LAST WEEK, I wanted to talk about my experience with <i>BioShock Infinite: Burial at Sea</i>. A summation of this two part beauty?<br />

I was completely speechless as the credits rolled. It was so beautifully wrapped up, I could not have asked for a better ending. From the get go, this had so much potential as it brought Booker and my beloved Elizabeth into the depths of Rapture. It did not fail me.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Going into this DLC, it is surprising how Rapture is before its downfall. Like Columbia, it's a stunning and awe inspiring visual that makes you say "I would totally live there if it wasn't underwater...near sharks...and other undiscovered species that are just waiting to rise up and destroy us all...."</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Also, it might help if down below the beautiful water city wasn't a bunch of murderous psychos ready and waiting to take it over.<br />

If you don't understand who that is...then you don't know Atlas.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://s1168.photobucket.com/user/ownhero8/media/tumblr_n0498nUlDH1sg8xe7o2_250_zpsb8114f8c.gif.html" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;" target="_blank"><img alt=" photo tumblr_n0498nUlDH1sg8xe7o2_250_zpsb8114f8c.gif" border="0" src="http://i1168.photobucket.com/albums/r484/ownhero8/tumblr_n0498nUlDH1sg8xe7o2_250_zpsb8114f8c.gif" height="274" width="320" /></a></div>
They really did do a great job at making such a despicable human being. <span style="color: red;">(SPOILERS AHEAD) </span> Good job guys, we officially all can't wait to replay <i>BioShock </i>simply because we know Atlas dies. The only problem with his eventual death is that in order to get to that point, Booker dies... and so does Elizabeth knowing that her death would bring Jack to Rapture and everything would come full circle. I felt fine about Booker's death. Was not a huge deal for me. I was never emotionally attached to him. It's Elizabeth's death that had me in tears. You see her grow and toughen up so much from the start of <i>Infinite...</i>a big point being that the Lutece's basically made Daisy sacrifice herself to Elizabeth in order to get to the point she was at in the end...<br />

This game is so heavy and gut wrenching, and worth every penny I ever spent on it. I loved BioShock Infinite...but this DLC....was really something else. Not much else to say other then I highly suggest this one if you have not gotten around to it. It's an emotional roller coaster. I will be here afterwards so we can talk it out and cry together.

It's been a lonnnnnnggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggg time, has it not? The reason I have not been writing so much is because I simply just had no motivation for it. That and because I killed my precious laptop in a horrible pink lemonade accident and have been mourning its loss.<br />

So now that I have finished grieving, I am writing to you from my wonderful desktop computer. Ignore the fact that I have been using it since December or whatever.... (it has really been that long?!?)<br />

<br />
You must be wondering what games I have been playing in this long absence. WELL, let me start by saying, I have pretty much been all over the place. I, of course, will never abandon my love for <i>Borderlands 2</i> so it goes without saying that has been my go to.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://s1168.photobucket.com/user/ownhero8/media/whitney-houston-30_zps8d53a4bb.gif.html" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;" target="_blank"><img alt=" photo whitney-houston-30_zps8d53a4bb.gif" border="0" src="http://i1168.photobucket.com/albums/r484/ownhero8/whitney-houston-30_zps8d53a4bb.gif" height="211" width="320" /></a></div>
Outside of that, I have played<i> Left 4 Dead 2</i> every once and a while and am always looking for people to play as the Infected with (only if you don't take it TOO seriously!) In addition to that, I played <i>Alice: Madness Returns</i>..again. And I believe some <i>LIMBO</i> when I was bored. OH and part 2 of <i>Bioshock Infinite: Burial at Sea</i> which I will eventually write about.<br />
( Honorable mentions here include <i>Castle Crashers</i>, <i>Braid</i>, <i>Fez </i>RABBLE RABBLE GAMES RABBLE RABBLE.)<br />

Out of all of these, the big two that I played are <i>Grand Theft Auto V</i> and <i>Assassins Creed IV: Black Flag</i>. So let us get right into it!<br />

<i> GTA V</i>: I went into this game without a clue as to what I was doing because I had never played any of the other Grand Theft Autos. This one intrigued me with its online aspect so I said WHY NOT and got it. Let me tell you, I was not disappointed. If you don't like crude humor and...you know...killing people...usually with your vehicle... like there is no tomorrow (ONLY IN GAMES...DON'T KILL PEOPLE YA NORMAN BATES WEIRDO)<br />

then this game will most likely not be for you.<br />
It was a very entertaining game. I won't say it is one of my favorites, but I would highly recommend it to the two people that have not played it yet. I think we all know one of the main reasons the story line was so enjoyable.<br />

<a href="http://s1168.photobucket.com/user/ownhero8/media/Trevor_zps4002fc35.gif.html" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;" target="_blank"><img alt=" photo Trevor_zps4002fc35.gif" border="0" src="http://i1168.photobucket.com/albums/r484/ownhero8/Trevor_zps4002fc35.gif" height="182" width="320" /></a></div>
TREVOR PHILIPS. What a whack job in the best way possible. I don't even know how to properly explain this man. My best bet would be to call him beautifully psychotic. He is the kind of person you love to watch from a farrrr distance but if you knew him in person you probably would be scared for your life every minute of every day. Don't get me wrong, the story is great and the use of 3 main playable characters is a truly wonderful concept to me. Franklin and Michael are cool too...but, without Trevor, I don't think the game would have been as popular as it is if he wasn't a part of it. Unless you just like to shoot things....then I guess that doesn't matter and that would also make me concerned about your mental health.<br />

Another reason the game is fantastic: the online world that comes with it. Create your own character, get an awesome car, build a crew, and just go for it. It comes with plenty of missions and random jobs (such as a parachuting) if you don't really want to just drive around and have shoot outs with other members in your server. Although....that is pretty fun when you get someone that's fairly even in rank to you. You can also earn money and buy apartments or cars...or be lame and go on the internet and pay for that <i>GTA </i>money instead.<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I suggest that when you do play online, you play with your friends. That way, you have a better success rate in missions and survivals and such. Or, you just laugh a little harder when you accidentally kill them in a robbery. But seriously guys, try out <i>GTA V</i> if you have not yet. That's all I can truly say about it.</div>

Moving on! <i> Assassins Creed IV: Black Flag</i>...was much better than <i>Assassins Creed III</i> which I will say I refuse to even act like it happened because it made me so mad <a href="http://gizmosarsenal.blogspot.com/2012/11/assassins-creed-iiifinally.html">(my post about it at the the time was fairly positive, which I have since changed my mind.)</a> I might be a bit biased though because I FUCKING LOVE PIRATES.<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
But still....a good time!</div>
The character was more likable...because that's what happens when you stick more so with the Ezio formula. The maps and missions were more enjoyable and the assassinations were more creative and entertaining. For the life of me I can't even remember a fun assassination in <i>AC3</i>. The story itself was nice and kept you interested in what would happen next. The ship battles and sailing was great and was so beautifully done. I LOVED sailing, which is ironic because as you may know, Im horrified of the ocean or large bodies of water..even in video games.<br />
<b style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.479999542236328px;"><code><span style="color: red;"><img atl="Gif" src="" /></span></code></b><br />
I fast traveled as little as possible just because I had so much fun with it. And those times when the humpback whales would make an appearance were tear inducing. At least until you had to harpoon them and the other sea creatures..which then brought me nothing but fear induced screaming.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://s1168.photobucket.com/user/ownhero8/media/jurassicparkscream_zps82bc36bc.gif.html" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;" target="_blank"><img alt=" photo jurassicparkscream_zps82bc36bc.gif" border="0" src="http://i1168.photobucket.com/albums/r484/ownhero8/jurassicparkscream_zps82bc36bc.gif" height="174" width="320" /></a></div>
There were some downsides though. The ending of the story, at least in my eyes, was so abrupt and disappointing. I think they wanted some kind of emotional farewell to those we met through out the game followed closely by a scene that's supposed to make us go "uhhhh wait...what?!?!" All I felt the WHOLE time was confusion. This is how you are going to end the game...really??<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

The modern day you is so damn lame. You don't even speak. You don't have a face. You're just a POV and nothing more. I hate to say it...but I miss the Desmond aspect of it. Not so much Desmond himself...especially Desmond in <i>AC3</i>. I hope that in the next game (which is taking place during the French Revolution. ITS FRANCE YA'LL!) they somehow develop the modern story line a little better.<br />
That's not my only issue with the game. If you are somehow still currently playing this game, let me give you a little piece of advice: if you think that collecting all those post it notes with encrypted messages on them will give you anything in the end. You're wrong. Sure you'll get the messages on them and can read all of them perfectly in order...but that's it. That and a headache. <br />

Honestly <i>Assassins Creed IV</i>, you had so much potential and I was ready to give you back my heart after the pain it went through with <i>AC3</i>. You just stomp on it and act like what we had wasn't something special. You're a cruel mistress...but damn it I will still play you.<br />

Overall, I would say the game was good, but the series has not fully won me back yet. Let's see what the next one has to offer.<b style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.479999542236328px;"><code><span style="color: red;"><img face="monospace" ff0000="" size="2" src="</span></code></b><font color=" /></span></code></b><br />
That about wraps it up lovelies. I would LOVE to hear what you, the world, has to say about any of the games I mentioned. Feel free to comment or share! I shall try to write more for you guys, but make your appearance known so I know I am not just writing for myself! I must be off...a cup of tea is calling out to me.<br />
HAPPY GAMING!<br />

Also, be warned, I am currently writing this after a piece holding up part of a curtain had fallen on my head and was bleeding profusely. So, if I start to ramble or make no sense...it's probably because I am dying/dead.<br />

ANYWAYS, so much has happened and I just have not been in the place to write about it! However, I am here now. So let's play catch up.<br />
I went to Comic Con in October (geez..it has really been that long...) and it was amazing. I got some sweet stuff (like 2 Borderlands shirts I wear constantly), and saw so many impressive cosplayers:<br />

I also did some sweet Halloween makeup on people that eventually I might make a post out of somewhere in the future when I make enough of a collection. If you want me to do a character makeup on you, let me know!! Here's my card:<br />

Getting away from shameless self promotion and jumping into the games, I played a couple since the last post. Of course, I still play <i>Borderlands 2</i>. I just replayed<i> Assault on Dragon Keep</i> and I just love Tiny Tina so much. I will never be sick of that little psycho.<br />

Apart from that, which will always be my go to, I played <i>Arkham Origins</i>. Now, you guys know I LOVE Batman. Well, really it is not so much Batman himself that I love, but more so the villains...<br />

I was really looking forward to playing this one because <i>Asylum</i> and <i>City</i> were two of my favorite games ever. I had so much hope for this one. BUT, on a scale of 1-10 where 10 is best, I give the game a solid 6. My main issue here is that the story did not feel like it was fleshed out very much. It seemed rushed and short. You would also think they would choose villains that were a bit more well known by the public. Most of them were still enjoyable though, (Copperhead was a badass, but Firefly was lame.) Lastly, the game glitched like no one's business. There was one point where I had to just turn the game off because of how often it was happening.<br />

The plus side to this game was how <span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">(SPOILER IF YOU HAVE NOT PLAYED)</span> Joker became so enthralled by Batman and basically how he came to be, in this version of the world at least. It was interesting to see things from his point of view.<br />
Ultimately, I say give it a shot because it is Batman after all, but do not expect some Earth shattering game that makes you piss your pants with emotion.<br />

Moving away from <i>Arkham Origins</i>, I also got myself the DLC for <i>Bioshock Infinite</i>, <i>Burial at Sea</i>. So far, it is only episode one, but I am really intrigued. Visually the game is gorgeous and the concept itself just excites me. It's Elizabeth and Booker....in Rapture...before its demise....<br />

I can't say much else about the game though, because episode one was so incredibly short! I don't think the amount of gameplay was worth how much I paid for it. Ultimately I felt ripped off. I will be getting the next episode though. Damn you Bioshock, I need to see how things pan out. I NEED ANSWERS!<br />

So with that, I must depart. I am pretty sure I am all caught up and hopefully I am not such an asshole and don't wait months to write. Gotta keep myself in check and what not.

Until then, have a lovely holiday everyone. See you soon and as always...<br />
HAPPY GAMING!<br />

I hope you are all having a wonderful fall. I have a busy few weeks coming up for me. What with Comic Con this weekend, as well as a trip with the family, apple picking, lantern tours, HOPEFULLY A HAUNTED HOUSE, and some Halloween makeup to be done on some people by yours truly. I just love October!!<br />

Apart from that, I have still found time for my precious gaming.</div>
Let's talk about a <a href="http://gizmosarsenal.blogspot.com/2013/02/hey-kids-iv-been-dishonored.html">game</a> from long ago that I <a href="http://gizmosarsenal.blogspot.com/2013/02/good-news-and-bad-news.html">put down</a> because of the aggravation it caused me. That and my lack of motivation to follow along with the story/impatience to do the game the right way.<br />
That's right folks, I am talking about <i>Dishonored</i>. <br />

Basically, I decided to give it another shot. I thought to myself, "Girl, remember when you hated <i>Borderlands</i> at first and after a while tried it again. What happened with that? YOU LOVED IT YOU WHEY FACED LOON! Why not try <i>Dishonored</i> again and see if its the same result." So I listened to myself, played until the very end for the good ending. Which means, I paid very close attention and was very stealthy in order to have as little bad consequences as possible.</div>

It had an interesting story and was very challenging which resulted in me getting very frustrated quite often. I have a serious problem with <i>Dishonored</i> though, and that is the ending. There I finally stood, in front of the door to which once I open my final challenge will await me. This epic final battle that solidifies a majority of popular games. A boss battle if you will. You know what happened? Huh? Do ya?</div>

To be fair, the path to that door was a unique, intense, and stressful journey. I felt proud every time I succeeded at the end of a level undetected and at a low chaos. And of course it caused the happy ending. I was just expecting more as the final outcome and level is all. I was very disappointed. Who knows if I will play again for the alternate ending. If it is more interesting than opening a door and seeing how everything worked out, I might try again. Not anytime soon though.<br />
If you do like games where you have to be stealthy and devious, or just want to go bananas and stab people up the wazoo, this game might be for you. If you like opening doors, this game is DEFINITELY for you....<br />

I think that sums up my thoughts on <i>Dishonored</i>. Next time you wonderful people will hear from me will be after Comic Con and I will discuss my experience and have plenty of pictures. It is going to be just wonderful.<br />

Welcome to October! Remember me? I used to write a lot on this blog. Lets get reacquainted. I am a lady with a potty mouth, I like apples, and long walks in the woods. Most importantly, I game. Good, thats better.<br />
In the time that I have not been writing on this blog, things have happened. I turned another year older...<br />

And the games have been plentiful. I played some of <i>Braid</i>, <i>The Walking Dead</i>, and as always, continued with the game I love, <i>Borderlands 2</i>. However, the game I want to talk about here is <i>Alice: Madness Returns</i>.<br />

Wow, what a game. It was so strange and creepy. The dark humor within it what really enjoyable and if anyone knows me, they know I enjoy a game much more if they don't take all things too seriously. YOU EVEN SHOOT PIG SNOUTS FOR HELP DAMN IT! WHAT A RIDICULOUS NOTION!!! <br />

I really just loved every second of it. The game was beautiful and can be really challenging at times. She even has a steampunk dress. Let me repeat that, a steamfuckingpunk dress.<br />

Definitely a game I will be playing another time.<br />
Only downside to this game is sometimes I couldn't get the controls to listen properly, as is the issue with many games. I would get so mad when something glitched on me, which was somewhat often. Seriously guys, this is the ONLY issue I felt was one mentioning. That, and sometimes the story got really confusing. Oh, and that there is a character that looks like the mutilated Chucky doll from my nightmares...<br />

BUT STILL.<br />
Highly recommend playing this one. Its quite an interesting adventure. <br />
That being said, I must be off to finish making the apple chips, as well as my dinner. Stay on the look out because my next post is going to be after I go to New York Comic Con!!! I am very very VERY excited. In the meantime, I might go back to <i>Skyrim</i> for a little, or maybe even another round of <i>Bioshock Infinite</i>. The options are endless my fellow fine feathered freaks!<br />

Hope you are all enjoying the small amount of summer we have left...I for one am ready for the beauty of fall and all it has to offer. I gonna pick the hell out of apples 'n' shit. Here is what I have been up to. I finally decided the direction I want to go in with the rest of my life, I dressed up as a super hero called SuperStache then renamed PornStache,<br />

As for gaming, I have been jumping around. I have been playing <i>Portal 2</i> and<i> Left 4 Dead 2</i>, trying to "save" people left and right.<br />

However, what I really want to talk about is a game called <i>Remember Me</i>. If you "remember" (see what I did there?!?) <i>Remember me</i> is the<a href="http://www.gizmosarsenal.blogspot.com/2012/08/why-am-i-being-hunted.html"> first game I ever wrote about on this blog</a>. I was looking forward to this because Nilin looked bad ass and I really liked the idea of the game.<br />

The reality is...it was okay...but not worth my time.<br />

It had an interesting concept, cool graphics....but it just did not give me a raging lady boner that I demand from the games I am playing. Too much to ask? I felt no emotional attachment to the characters and it became a bit too repetitive.<br />

The only real positive I can give this game was that I did enjoy all the memory remixes. That was something I had never really seen in a game before and I had fun doing it once I realized how to work the controls. <br />

I am not going to lie to you...I have forgotten a lot of the game. Which is a horrible sign. So fuck it, I now need a good game to play in order to wash out the somewhat bad taste this one has left in my mouth. So the search is on. In the mean time...Borderlands 2 calls my name yet again. Suggestions are appreciated...and money...money is good too.<br />

You might have noticed that I have been making posts a month at a time. Unfortunately, I have had less to time to make posts, which is bad...very very bad. Some quick updates for ya...I have changed some things about the blog and I am excited about it, I got a job, I am going to New York Comic Con for the first time, and I have a weird sunburn/tan on my chest.<br />
Now to the gaming! As you all might know, I have been playing and enjoying a lot of <i>Borderlands 2</i>. You might also know that I am absolutely in love with Tiny Tina and all her insane 13 year old glory. So of course, it is only right that I started playing her DLC, <i>Tiny Tina's Assault on Dragon Keep</i>, the day it came out.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;"><b><code><span style="color: red;"><img atl="Gif" src="http://i1168.photobucket.com/albums/r484/ownhero8/tumblr_inline_mlsmw6UuBm1reo5h8_zps19b003e5.gif" /></span></code></b></span></div>
Let me tell you, I was not disappointed at all.<br />
The DLC is fantastic. It's so different from the other worlds in BL, because this one is a game in a game. It has plenty of great missions with hilarious references including <i>Game of Thrones</i> and<i> Lord of the Rings </i>and a number of new and different enemies that can be pretty challenging....like those annoying friggin' spiders.<br />

Ultimately, the DLC did have to come to an end. What is ironic here is after all the humor in the game, the ending made me sad. If you have not played the original<i> BL2, </i>then you should if you want to play this. Otherwise, it will spoil you and you will not get what happened. What I can say is that, I am impressed with the writers for making a story that is more than just for laughs and has an underlying concept of how they think this very young girl would deal with this specific issue.<br />

All in all, kudos to the <i>Borderlands</i> people for this one...you make little ole me happy!<br />

So, where am I now? After I finished that DLC, I needed to move on. I recently downloaded<i> Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon</i>. I am not too far into it, and I cannot figure out how I feel about it at the moment. I think because I have not played <i>Far Cry 3</i> in a minute, I do not have the skills I once had. But its okay, I'll get back to that point and be the coolest kid on the block once again.....<br />

Anyways, I will keep everyone posted on the game. Have a good weekend and partake in some merriment and mischievous behavior. I will be here.....eating this bagel.<br />
Happy gaming!!!<br />

Good news! I beat <i>Borderlands 2</i>, and I no longer feel shame trying to cosplay as Maya...even though that will most likely not happen now. I have come to the full conclusion that I cannot sew for shit. If someone does it for me, I will create a full choreographed dance routine dedicated to just them. <br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Am I telling the truth? You won't know unless you make me Maya!<br />
So, how about that<i> Borderlands 2</i> huh? It's pretty much the same exact thing as <i>Borderlands 1</i> but with improved graphics, a batch of new characters, and a storyline that has been somewhat fleshed out in comparison to the simple, "GET TO THE VAULT," schtick of the first one (even though that is obviously still the main idea.) Don't get me wrong, I did like it and had a blast playing. The gameplay is fun, as I assumed it would be, and co-op falls in that same boat. Was I hoping for a little more? Of course, but I don't regret the purchase. I have come to love <i>Borderlands</i>...I just wish there was something a little more different and surprising about the second one. To make things spicy.<br />
There are things that I <i>really</i> loved about this game though, despite those underlying feelings of disappointment. The commentary from the characters had me laughing hard, and some of the missions were so ridiculous that you could not help but have a big smile on your face while doing them. <br />

Each boss and most missions were challenging enough that it kept it interesting, which I really appreciate....sometimes.<br />
(....Only if I can eventually beat them before I turn into a maniacal banshee. That is all Im saying.)<br />

There are, however, two reasons I really enjoyed playing the game. The first being...<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i1168.photobucket.com/albums/r484/ownhero8/tumblr_mbuhi6nFlU1qj33tso1_500_zpscd0739e9.gif" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img atl="Gif" border="0" height="212" src="http://i1168.photobucket.com/albums/r484/ownhero8/tumblr_mbuhi6nFlU1qj33tso1_500_zpscd0739e9.gif" width="400" /></a></div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;"><b><code><span style="color: red;"></span></code></b></span><br />
Tiny Tina has been a serious topic with players of the game. Some people can't get enough of her, <a href="http://kotaku.com/5981171/borderlands-2s-writer-says-hell-change-tiny-tina-if-she-conveys-racism-as-some-players-think-[update]">and others find her to be racist</a>. Although I can easily understand where people are coming from, I am somehow fascinated by her. I don't even really understand why I love Tiny Tina so much. She is just an obnoxiously insane 13 year old. The things that come out of her mouth are random and for the most part purely shock factor...and every single thing has my full attention and my jaw dropping. Maybe I love her so much because she reminds me of Lori Petty in one of my favorite films.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i1168.photobucket.com/albums/r484/ownhero8/tumblr_lp32alw2YL1qhsaico7_500_zps39caba58.gif" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img atl="Gif" border="0" height="220" src="http://i1168.photobucket.com/albums/r484/ownhero8/tumblr_lp32alw2YL1qhsaico7_500_zps39caba58.gif" width="400" /></a></div>

<i>Tank Girl</i>...a movie so bad that even the comic book creators are ashamed it happened. If you have not seen it I highly recommend it....I will just give you a small taste of the beauty of it all. After that, you should also probably watch the movie <i>Warlock</i>. Another classic.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I am getting off track here though. Tiny Tina is basically a power house all on her own and fortunately, we get to see more of her as a DLC is being released called, "Tiny Tina's Assault on Dragon Keep." Here is 40 minutes of the DLC gameplay footage...just in case you are curious or something.<br />

<br />
Moving on, the other reason I found such joy in this game?<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i1168.photobucket.com/albums/r484/ownhero8/tumblr_mcds5zOmsq1ql1q95o1_r1_500_zps0cd9733b.gif" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img atl="Gif" border="0" height="204" src="http://i1168.photobucket.com/albums/r484/ownhero8/tumblr_mcds5zOmsq1ql1q95o1_r1_500_zps0cd9733b.gif" width="400" /></a></div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;"><b><code><span style="color: red;"></span></code></b></span><br />
Handsome Jack. Like Tina, I can't really figure out what it is about this villain I like so much. It could be his sick sense of humor. Or, it could be that the game writers actually gave him a fairly intriguing backstory. Could be other things, but I can't seem to target it. He is, simply put, cool. <br />
As a side note, I have to persuade someone to let me do a Handsome Jack cosplay on them. I would love to create that face. I MUST CREATE THAT FACE!<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i1168.photobucket.com/albums/r484/ownhero8/tumblr_inline_mi75pfhB1m1qz4rgp_zpse0940ab6.gif" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img atl="Gif" border="0" height="266" src="http://i1168.photobucket.com/albums/r484/ownhero8/tumblr_inline_mi75pfhB1m1qz4rgp_zpse0940ab6.gif" width="400" /></a></div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;"><b><code><span style="color: red;"></span></code></b></span><br />
With all that being said, give the game a try and decide for yourself.... if you haven't already. I had fun and so will you. I must be off now, my kingdom needs me...and by that I mean I am just going to sit here and eat a bunch of M&M's and watch Charmed. That's still just as cool, right? RIGHT?!?!<br />
Bye for now and happy gaming.<br />

I am sucking at staying up to date with this blog as of late. My life has been very busy working on that mural. Fortunately, we finished last week. You may be asking, "I wonder what this little lady would spend her money on?" I spent it on games, ya bootiful numb nuts! I regret nothing. Though, to be honest, I only spent a portion of it, not all of it. So don't you worry, I can still buy those sexy male strippers for my birthday.<br />

That being said, one of the games I finally got my hands on was <i>BioShock Infinite</i>. I bought it Monday....beat it on Wednesday.....again, I regret nothing.<br />
In regard to how I feel about <i>BioShock Infinite</i>:<br />

<br />
I never particularly felt attached to<i> BioShock</i> before. Sure, I played them, and they were good (maybe not BioShock 2 so much) and Rapture was such an interesting concept despite my ever loving fear of water...but I would never say they were my favorite. <br />
I can, without a doubt in my mind, say this game definitely is up there with my favorites. The storyline was AMAZING, the twists, the turns, the enemies, the vigors! (I can't decide which one was my favorite to use...a majority of them were just incredibly helpful.) My mind is blown at how damn fantastic this game is! <br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i1168.photobucket.com/albums/r484/ownhero8/2qjdthijpg_zps2453a73a.gif" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img atl="Gif" border="0" height="207" src="http://i1168.photobucket.com/albums/r484/ownhero8/2qjdthijpg_zps2453a73a.gif" width="320" /></a></div>

I can't forget to mention how beautiful everything looked. I would gladly move to Columbia...if it weren't run by warring factions of which are both equally evil and was not deteriorating in some ways. Columbia is what I imagine if Walt Disney decided to go even bigger and build a park in the sky. I bet him and Comstock would be BFFerz too. AMIRITE?!?!?<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i1168.photobucket.com/albums/r484/ownhero8/tumblr_inline_mlbgwx6w7C1qz4rgp_zpsaab67535.gif" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img atl="Gif" border="0" height="160" src="http://i1168.photobucket.com/albums/r484/ownhero8/tumblr_inline_mlbgwx6w7C1qz4rgp_zpsaab67535.gif" width="400" /></a></div>
Lets get to the big reasons I enjoyed this game. <br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: red; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img atl="Gif" height="200" src="http://i1168.photobucket.com/albums/r484/ownhero8/tumblr_mlmzi3LWtD1ruzbsdo1_400_zps70fe0d07.gif" width="400" /></span></div>
<br />
Of course, I love is Elizabeth. I wouldn't say I want to be her though. Her life sucked for the most part. She is a damsel in distress for most her life, up in her tower with her warden Songbird; but she is smart, savvy, and brave when she needs to be so I can appreciate that. Also, she is incredibly helpful in a majority of the fights.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i1168.photobucket.com/albums/r484/ownhero8/tumblr_ml6aqfTtSZ1s1kiiuo1_500_zps3db53c1b.gif" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img atl="Gif" border="0" height="210" src="http://i1168.photobucket.com/albums/r484/ownhero8/tumblr_ml6aqfTtSZ1s1kiiuo1_500_zps3db53c1b.gif" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
Plus, that outfit she is sporting post haircut is just grade A.<br />
I also really liked Booker. I don't have much to say on him though. He was so serious and tortured. His heart is big and that obviously shows when he interacts with Elizabeth, although you would not know he had one by his early actions. (If you dont know what I mean I will not spoil it for you...you need to go on this roller coaster of emotion yourself.)<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i1168.photobucket.com/albums/r484/ownhero8/tumblr_mf362u8lwM1rel180o1_500_zps40f95a4c.gif" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img atl="Gif" border="0" height="170" src="http://i1168.photobucket.com/albums/r484/ownhero8/tumblr_mf362u8lwM1rel180o1_500_zps40f95a4c.gif" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
But the two that intrigued me most???<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: red; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img atl="Gif" height="400" src="http://i1168.photobucket.com/albums/r484/ownhero8/tumblr_ml1v74IXAj1s9flg6o1_500_zps7865b337.gif" width="400" /></span></div>
<br />
The Lutece Twins. These two...were so weird. And I loved it. It is almost impossible to talk about them without giving anything away; but basically, the way they spoke to each other cracked me up and how they appeared at the most random of times is part of what entertained me so much about the game. Whenever they showed up you really needed to hear what they were saying because they only spoke in what seemed like riddles.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i1168.photobucket.com/albums/r484/ownhero8/tumblr_m5w9qpUKhq1r5jtugo1_400_zps24912f5e.gif" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img atl="Gif" border="0" src="http://i1168.photobucket.com/albums/r484/ownhero8/tumblr_m5w9qpUKhq1r5jtugo1_400_zps24912f5e.gif" /></a></div>
<br />
Basically, my mind is all in scrambles after beating this game. I really loved it and if you have not played it then you need to punch yourself in your downstairs business and acquire the game before I find you and basically reenact the entire game for you. Nobody wants that, so get the game.<br />
I am now onto my next endeavor, <i>Borderlands 2.</i> I am already a whopping level 8. I know, I am playing in the big leagues now. So I will keep you posted on that. I am off for now, enjoy the beginning of May! Plant some flowers, sunbathe naked, let your freak flag fly and such. I leave you with this, the only thing that made me scream in all of <i>Bioshock</i>:<br />

Welcome to April!! I know...it's been a bit of time since my last post, but Samantha and I have been commissioned to paint a mural and we are knee deep in it. Don't you worry your sweet shiny tush, I have still found plenty of time to play.<br />
Unfortunately, I am not willing to spend the money right now for <i>BioShock Infinite....</i><br />

I have heard only amazing things about it though, so I am anxiously awaiting the moment I can get my hands on it.<br />
Instead, I have given myself over to a game I originally kept secret about not playing fully because I was not too fond of. This game is <i>Borderlands</i>. <br />
(In case you possibly have been living under a rock:)<br />

When I first played it, I did not give it enough of my attention and I found it a bit annoying. However, as my gaming abilities have matured, I decided to give it another go. Boy, was I glad I did. The game is awesome.<br />

I am absolutely in love with her. She, and all the other characters, kick so much damn ass. The story is interesting, the graphics are fun in their own way, and the mechanics of the game are great. More importantly, the game is really challenging and I love it! <br />

Something about this game really stands out for me, and that is its multiplayer options. I love a good multiplayer where you work with a team to do challenges. While you help others you can also help yourself (Thats what she said...sorry couldn't help it)... level up. There is just something about working with a team that just revs my engine, ya know what I mean?!?!<br />

I do have one downside to multiplayer though. When I was playing the final level, the point when you find out what is in the vault, the cut scene was over for a millisecond before Guardian angel had told me I had beaten it. My team mates level was so high that he only made one hit and the thing had gone down. I for one was disappointed I could not face that dangerously disgusting bloblike figure that would have haunted my dreams if I had the opportunity to fully SEE IT.<br />

Also, seems like most people playing the game have not surpassed the age of 16, which is awkward. Always a good time when a 13 year old boy keeps trying to duel with you and calling you a bitch and then running away. It's just funny when their high pitched voices are saying the most horrid things. Where are they learning these things, the interwebz?? The hooligans!<br />

How was your weekend? Did you enjoy your Saint Patrick's Day full of drunken debauchery, urinating all over alleyways, then use your drunken tears of loneliness to clean the urine off the walls? Sounds like a good time you whacky, whacky kids!<br />

Gaming wise, I told you I would keep you posted on my<i> Tomb Raiding</i>, and here I am! I will make this very short, because I played some more this weekend with my Tomb Raiding partner in crime, yet not enough to make a full discussion of it. At this point though I can easily tell you...<br />
<br />
I FUCKING LOVE THIS GAME!<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: red; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img atl="Gif" height="266" src="http://i1168.photobucket.com/albums/r484/ownhero8/fx78jqjpg_zps52133353.gif" width="400" /></span></div>
<br />
It is beyond different from the other <i>Tomb Raiders</i>, and has exceeded my expectations. I like it so much that I don't even mind the porn star voice anymore. Who knew! Although, there are numerous times that it is a bit too similar to <i>Uncharted</i> (find something you need for the mission, fight a bunch of guys, help someone with something, fight a bunch of guys, climb something or sneak somewhere, fight a bunch of guys, do a mission, FIGHT A BUNCH OF GUYS!) <br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Despite it, I find myself enjoying it more than I thought I would. <br />
We are only now at the point where the issues going on with the island are becoming more and more apparent, and I think it is a very interesting and different story. You just find yourself wanting to know more and more and why everything is still happening or who those big guys are that make me almost want to cry out of fear. <br />

Instead of crying though, there is a lot of screaming and panicking involved. The last part we finished was we acquired the flaming arrows and escaped from the area where the helicopter was. That shit was not easy. <br />
I find myself incredibly eager to get back into it and help Lara become the survivor we know and love...<br />

I know, I know...I have been MIA for a bit. I felt like it was wrong to write when I have not exactly been gaming. I played so much <i>Skyrim</i>, and don't get me wrong, I LOVE the game as you know, but I just needed some time to unwind and do other things as I would spend hours on it. Also, I guess you can say I lost some motivation, so currently I have been doing other things, like giving <i>The Walking Dead</i> a chance...not bad so far...<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

You don't want to hear about my depressing yet strangely entertaining life, so back to why we are here, GAMES. I can tell you guys I have been playing the new <i>Tomb Raider</i> with my friend. I have not gotten too much time with it, just a few hours, but I certainly do have some things to say based on what I have seen so far:<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.youtube.com/embed/h577puRphXQ?feature=player_embedded' frameborder='0'></iframe></div>
<br />
I really enjoy the new look to Lara. The appeal especially is that mentality and innocence that she carries with her and how it is eventually tarnished. (Although, she is shooting people from the start and just kicking ass left and right....not so innocent after all...)<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: red; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img atl="Gif" height="217" src="http://i1168.photobucket.com/albums/r484/ownhero8/getstuffdone_zpsb12c440a.gif" width="400" /></span></div>
<br />
<br />
It is so different from the other <i>Tomb Raider</i>s and I think thats what I like about it so much. You really can't even look at it like it's <i>Tomb Raide</i>r. I love the other ones (especially <i>Anniversary</i>), and have played most of them a dozen times, so I am eager to keep seeing where this one goes and how she develops. Hopefully she also stops with the porn star screaming. (It's a nail through your side girl, not an orgasm...unless you're into that...)<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: red; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img atl="Gif" height="164" src="http://i1168.photobucket.com/albums/r484/ownhero8/tumblr_m44plgxW8Q1qlotxuo1_500_zps490e1234.gif" width="400" /></span></div>
<br />
<br />
One thing I hated about the other <i>Tomb Raider</i>s that have been brought full force with this game....those damn quick time events. Why, oh why, is this game plagued with them? I am playing on my friends PS3, I am not as accustomed to the buttons that come with that console, so you can see my predicament here. Not that I can't do them, but there is a lot of "oh....it said to press O...but I panicked and pressed X." That shit stops being cute after a couple of tries.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: red; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img atl="Gif" height="201" src="http://i1168.photobucket.com/albums/r484/ownhero8/wkJi3_zpsbbd3b913.gif" width="400" /></span></div>
<br />
Also, why so many cut scenes, <i>Tomb Raider</i>? I am not here to watch a movie, I am here to survive the island, find out what's going on, and save my friends! (As far as I know, really have not gotten that far.) It is to the point where the most unnecessary moments are turned into cut scenes. I do not need a cut scene to show me how deep a drop is. It really pisses me off. JUST LET ME PLAY!<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: red; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img atl="Gif" src="http://i1168.photobucket.com/albums/r484/ownhero8/315l4is_zps5762359f.gif" /></span></div>
<br />
That drop actually leads me to another point, this game is more creepy and gory than all of the others. That being said, I like it that way! I love that when I am walking through a cave...there is that fear that something will pop out at you, so either you have to walk really carefully, or run for your damn life.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: red; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img atl="Gif" height="225" src="http://i1168.photobucket.com/albums/r484/ownhero8/tumblr_lq8h1rKDZ41qh0epb_zpsf2da9b70.gif" width="400" /></span></div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;"><b><code></code></b></span><br />
You eventually do get hit by a wolf or a person or something and it easily scares the hell of out of me every time!<br />
So far, that is all I can really discuss about the game, I will of course update with my thoughts as I progress, but as of right now, with everything I have mentioned, my feelings towards the game summed up...<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: red; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img atl="Gif" height="194" src="http://i1168.photobucket.com/albums/r484/ownhero8/tumblr_mbtz431GuV1rog4gso3_500_zps9e8062ef.gif" width="400" /></span></div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;"><b><code></code></b></span><br />
and I do suggest it trying it out for yourself. Also, I am making more of an effort to play again, I have been thinking of getting back into the <i>Far Cry 3</i> co-op that I love oh so much. Anyway, I am off to do some work and start building a dress form.<br />
Happy Gaming!<br />

As I assume all of you know because I talk about it a lot, I have been playing a bit of <i>Skyrim</i> lately. I can't help it, it is the crackers in my soup, the areola to a boob, the A button to my Xbox controller, THE DOVAH TO MY KIIN! I just really love this game...<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

For some strange reason I am addicted to the ways of this game, it has all the right moves....except for one. In my previous discussions of <i>Skyrim</i>, I would mention the glitches in this game. From the smaller ones, where it's just funny and random things are missing...like the floor...or someone's face, to how a lot of the time there will be in an epic battle and all the sudden the game freezes. How I cannot interact with someone because the quests have intermingled and have therefore rained on my parade. Recently, the screen had gone grey in the middle of fighting one of the glorious dragons in Whiterun. As of last week, I did a quest titled "Waking Nightmare," in which the game froze every time I went to save or search a body/chest after that dream sequence. Only after did I discover while talking to a friend of mine that the same issue happened to him while playing the same quest. What is going on here guys? Why is a game playing with our emotions so much?<br />

At least I can take comfort in the fact that all over youtube there hilarious are videos dedicated to these glitches that I highly recommend everyone takes a look at. For example, I was shown this video a while back and it still cracks me up:<br />

<br />
In all honesty though, I am at the point where it does not even faze me. I save a bunch, it freezes, I restart. I turn it on knowing that something bad will definitely happen, and yet I keep playing because it just has so much to offer.<br />
You got me Skyrim, you got me right where you want me you dirty, dirty sausage wallet. I am yours to command as much as I try to deny you...<br />

An afterthought: TOMB RAIDER IS SO CLOSE I CAN ALMOST TASTE MY ANGER TOWARDS LARA!!Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01288697016635386675noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9165112231768811463.post-620099361875445812013-02-13T13:42:00.003-08:002013-02-13T13:46:20.168-08:00Good News and Bad News...Hello all!<br />
How are you doing this fine day? I'm not doing too great. Seems this winter I am getting sick every week and I am not pleased in the slightest about it. Apart from that, I am just wonderful. Let's cut to the chase though, I have some good news and bad news. Which do you want first?<br />
The bad news? Okay then. I stopped played <i>Dishonored</i>. I know what you're saying, "How could you!? What is wrong with you!? Are you dumb or something because this game is great! EAT SHIT AND DIE!!!"<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: red; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img atl="Gif" height="208" src="http://i1168.photobucket.com/albums/r484/ownhero8/tumblr_mb1t1pDjp61reqeubo1_400_zps2f384631.gif" width="400" /></span></div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;"><b><code></code></b></span><br />
...Maybe not the last one, but let me explain why I stopped before things get really out of hand. As I have said before, it is a very interesting game with a cool concept and setting with great challenges. However, once I realized I was not quite sure why I was supposed to be doing the things I do, things just went down hill. I lost all motivation to play it, and the fact that I was so lost frustrated me to the point where I was yelling obscenities at Corvo like someone else I used to know...(cough, CONNOR, cough.)<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: red; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img atl="Gif" src="http://i1168.photobucket.com/albums/r484/ownhero8/games-gif-assassins-creed-438280_zps2474d19b.gif" /></span></div>

I am not saying I will never go back to <i>Dishonored</i>, but for now I just need to step away and find the motivation again before I jump through the screen and punt Corvo using a leg made out of the hoards of man eating rats.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: red; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img atl="Gif" height="241" src="http://i1168.photobucket.com/albums/r484/ownhero8/nqE1Z_zps2ac7503c.gif" width="320" /></span></div>

Now the good news, I put down <i>Dishonored</i> and picked up <i>Skyrim</i> again. I guess that does not exactly mean anything for you guys, but it's good for me! So you take that news and run for the hills in joy and happiness!! I like that I can always rely on <i>Skyrim</i> for a random as all hell quest; and even better than that, I can demolish all falmers with a flick of my wrist now, which if you read one of my last <i>Skyrim</i> posts, drove me nuts. That, my friends, is better than a lifetime supply creme brulee, and that dessert is the epitome of heaven...<br />

Debates on whether or not I will get the DLC for it though, and I know about the Skyrim online beta thats happening. We will see how it all goes, for now I will continue to be the Dragonborn High elf hot tamale that shoots fire and ice out of her hands. That being said, I am off to take some more cough drops and blow my nose.<br />
HAPPY GAMING!<br />

How are you doing this lovely February day? I am wonderful. I am working, I dyed my hair, and I am back on track to being healthier (Kind of.) More importantly, I finally, after a couple of months of saying I would, motivated myself enough to start playing <i>Dishonored</i>. Yet again, I am late to this party but let us discuss this gem.<br />
I am not very far into it at all, but there are some things I do enjoy about this one, and some I am just not here for. I can say that it is beautifully made and it's as if BioShock and Borderlands got drunk late one night off of Malibu bay breezes, mojitos, Jameson shots, and hard ciders, then procreated on a Steampunk styled bed. <br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: red; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img atl="Gif" height="225" src="http://i1168.photobucket.com/albums/r484/ownhero8/tumblr_maiixksgH81rnvwt1_zps5026c942.gif" width="400" /></span></div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;"><b><code></code></b></span><br />
I will also say that I enjoy how challenging this game is. I am so stressed about wanting to have a good ending that it takes me a really long time to do most of the missions. There are so many different kinds of things to avoid, one being the guards all over the place that would hear you and chase after you if I did something as simple as, oh I don't know, breathing. So inconsiderate to my needs, <i>Dishonored</i>. <br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: red; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img atl="Gif" height="211" src="http://i1168.photobucket.com/albums/r484/ownhero8/tumblr_mbjy1kTwvA1qerpcpo1_400_zps24433d3d.gif" width="400" /></span></div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;"><b><code></code></b></span><br />
There are also the Weepers to avoid. They are the people that have been consumed by the rat plague. So basically, you have your zombies in the game. They are alright, really nothing special about them. I just tend to leave them alone to drown in their own vomit and sorrows, poor dears.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: red; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img atl="Gif" height="240" src="http://i1168.photobucket.com/albums/r484/ownhero8/tumblr_mbnwhppSNg1r70n32_zps817fd9ff.gif" width="320" /></span></div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;"><b><code></code></b></span><br />
Then there are the rats! Never in my life did I think any game would have a group of carnivorous rats as an enemy, so I was quite taken aback when all the sudden I am being eaten alive and running for dear life and loving every minute of it. It's not the weepers that make me scream like 4 year old me watching <i>Child's Play</i> for the first time, it's the rats!<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: red; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img atl="Gif" height="220" src="http://i1168.photobucket.com/albums/r484/ownhero8/tumblr_linvkyC7xL1qatk7fo1_500_zps5b67e64a.gif" width="400" /></span></div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;"><b><code></code></b></span><br />
The powers in this game are cool too. I especially enjoy the Blink ability. It is so convenient when I need to teleport from place to place. All the other abilities are interesting, but I find that Blink comes in handy the most. Dark Vision only works on occasion and does not show me enough of what I want to see through the walls, Bending time helps when I panic and need to get to another place fast. Possession is rarely helpful, as I have only used it one time and a prostitute lost it when she saw me. There are so many more I have yet to fully use up to their potential...<br />
As far as the story line, I am not QUITE sure what is going on or why I have to kill certain people. Honestly, I really do not mind much of this game, I like a good challenge and this definitely offers it, but I don't care for this storyline. All I know is that I was framed, I saved the kid, now I am just killing, kidnapping, and talking to a bunch of people that all look exactly alike; but I take my mission, I do what I do and that's all that I do....<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

...and also looking for runes with the beating heart.<br />
Anyways, I know I am missing a lot of stuff to mention about the game, but I thought I should just mention all the things that have stuck out for me so far and the feels I have. I know I have barely scratched the surface on this game (I think), but I know I look forward to seeing what else <i>Dishonored</i> has to offer, and maybe I will become more familiar with the storyline along the way. HERE'S HOPING! Im off for now, and as always...<br />
HAPPY GAMING!!<br />

I am going to make this very short. I know I am not as frequent as I used to be with my posts, but your girl needed a bit of a break. I overplayed, stopped exercising (I may have broken my Kinect), and so on and so forth. Not trying to make excuses, but I may have possibly over done it and tired myself out; but don't you beauties worry your pretty little heads off. I'll be back faster than you can say...<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: red; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img atl="Gif" height="181" src="http://i1168.photobucket.com/albums/r484/ownhero8/tumblr_md8pda4FNx1rhqbfto1_500_zps65004a17.gif" width="400" /></span></div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;"><b><code></code></b></span><br />
So, what is the reason I felt I needed a break, especially from playing for a little? I spent hours upon hours of my day playing <i>Far Cry 3</i>. Which says one thing: it might be one of the best games I played in 2012 and leading into 2013. <br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">YOU SHOULD NOT READ IF YOU DO NOT WANT TO BE SPOILED</span><br />
The story was interesting, the characters were pretty well developed. The combat felt somewhat smooth and all together, the game was quite enjoyable. I truly felt like a bad ass warrior with some pretty nice tattoos. In addition to that, the co-op is just fantastic. I love a good kick-ass session online, and this game definitely offers that. (FYI, if we do ever play together, I call Callum.)<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
The only major downside to this game? They got rid of the best character, Vaas, halfway through. That did not sit well with me. Especially because the "bigger" boss man, Hoyt, was so boring. Which leads me to another, smaller, issue. Although it did not really change my opinion much on the game, but what is with the quicktime events for the bosses. You work hard to finally get to them and boom, you press a few buttons and they are done?? Hmmm...<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: red; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img atl="Gif" height="223" src="http://i1168.photobucket.com/albums/r484/ownhero8/madmen1_zpsabee5f39.gif" width="400" /></span></div>
I think if they wanted to pull off better boss battles, all of them should have been a big fight leading up to them and then it be like how you fought with the giant when you are high off your ass because of Citra. That's just my opinion. Speaking of which I was so friggin right about Citra in my last <i>Far Cry</i> post. I knew it!!!!<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: red; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img atl="Gif" height="205" src="http://i1168.photobucket.com/albums/r484/ownhero8/tumblr_mdbwto57gv1rt4mvg_zps1daeb42b.gif" width="400" /></span></div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;"><b><code></code></b></span><br />
Other then that I really found little wrong with the game, except the incredibly disappointing endings in both cases that I will pretend never happened, and I highly recommend it to anyone.<br />
So, I am done with <i>Far Cry</i>...for now. I am now going to attempt to <i>Dishonored</i>. I know I have been saying this for a while now, but I just have not had the motivation for it really. I am working on it. Really, I am....<br />
I guess to sum it up, I overdosed on games and cake, I loved <i>Far Cry 3</i>, I love Vaas, I know the definition of insanity and it's Citra, and <i>Dishonored</i> is in my future. That's it for now.<br />
HAPPY GAMING<br />

So sometime soon I will be making another vlog. I have decided what I am going to do but I would like to surprise you guys, because I love filling your days with joy and glee (not the show....) <br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i1168.photobucket.com/albums/r484/ownhero8/tumblr_m6lnbokjKI1rnvwt1_zps78c2efb6.gif" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img atl="Gif" border="0" height="225" src="http://i1168.photobucket.com/albums/r484/ownhero8/tumblr_m6lnbokjKI1rnvwt1_zps78c2efb6.gif" width="400" /></a></div>

So for now I am just going to update you on what is going on. <br />
Im flippin stuck in<i> Far Cry 3</i>..... there is this one part on the second island where I am supposed to make a satellite explode, and I just cant do it! I keep getting killed or the person I am protecting gets killed. Just plain rude if you ask me.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i1168.photobucket.com/albums/r484/ownhero8/tumblr_mbcmp6co6Z1rtipyio1_r1_500_zps040496c7.gif" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img atl="Gif" border="0" height="200" src="http://i1168.photobucket.com/albums/r484/ownhero8/tumblr_mbcmp6co6Z1rtipyio1_r1_500_zps040496c7.gif" width="400" /></a></div>

If anyone can help me out on possible suggestions for beating this part, it would be most helpful.<br />
In addition to that, I have been keeping up on my New Years resolution to get in shape. I'm just as surprised as you are! I really hate working out. The treadmill is like a disgusting monster with thousands of teeth that ooze disgusting acidic goo.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Running in general is not one of my favorite things. Instead of that, I discovered the best way for me to work out is through DANCE.<br />
I already had <i>Dance Central</i>, but I now have <i>Dance Central 2</i> and <i>3</i>. Let me tell you, that shit is hilarious. If you don't know me, I am a short, top heavy lady and no matter what I do, my dances always turn into a robot. This game makes me feel like I have at least a LITTLE rhythm.<br />

But this game, even though the kinect....well, the kinect kind of sucks, its fun and the challenges are actually pretty hard. My kinect is also a bit broken so I have to work extra hard to get some points. And get this, I AM ACTUALLY GETTING IN SHAPE. Woah...who knew...<br />

Welcome to 2013!!!! How are you doing? Did you have a fun New Years? You having a good day? Anything new for you?<br />

I am still playing <i>Far Cry 3</i>...and let me just say the joy out of this game has only increased. It is absolutely incredible...and freaking challenging. I just made it to the other island yesterday and let me tell you, the difficulty is driving me bananas. In a good way though. I enjoy the fact that they put effort into making the two islands fairly different.<br />
But this post is not about the islands and my development in it...let's talk about the characters. Some I like very much and make the game for me, some I dislike with good reason which may surprise you. <br />
Let's cut to the chase with the people I am not into here. First and foremost....I do not like Citra. I find her to be a bit much for my liking. Now I don't know what her real deal is as I am still fairly far from finishing the game I think....but I feel in my gut she is deceitful. <br />

She just seems up to something always and obviously wants on Jason. Citra...no man is going to want you if you show him the painted lady goods before you DTR. Put it away girl. I get it...hes a "warrior"....but those tatas need to be stuffed back in a shirt. No reason they need to be out. (yes...I know I am talking to a fictional game character...)<br />

Another character I don't like...and this one may be surprising (or not. depends on who you are.) Jason. He is snotty, selfish, and a baby when it comes to hunting. He is an obvious adrenaline junkie, and just plain cold! Yes, I know he is dealing with a lot of death...but homeboy...you need a slap in the face and a dose of reality. You're a tattooed man obsessed with being a warrior and revenge, and you go and break Liza's heart. What a punk! Sure he has some good commentary from time to time...but come on! GEEZ!<br />

<br />
Ironically, the coolest character by far (and I think many of you will agree): Vaas. I know I said it in the last post, but he is such a fantastic villain. He is absolutely drug induced INSANE!!! He is the only character that when he speaks, I truly pay attention to. His speech to Jason about the definition of insanity....Superbly done. Honestly..if I think about it...he might be the only character I truly and fully like. The guy that did the voice for Vaas, Michael Mando...he really did a great job developing this guy. AND THEN, I found that special that Ubisoft made for the game where Mando actually became Vaas!! I was incredibly excited. <br />

Apart from him, I do enjoy all the quirky people Jason meets along the way. Buck, Dennis, Sam...and on and on...every one of them is so different from each other but equally whacky. If I were actually on that island myself, I would be fearing for my life meeting any of them...but because I am not, its very entertaining guessing what they will do next. <br />

Besides that, I believe I still have other characters to meet; but really, this is such a fantastic game and if you have not gotten it yet I highly recommend it! With that, I am of for now!<br />

Hello again lovelies!!</div>
It is almost 2013!!!! Shit is getting real ya'll!! Anyone have an interesting New Year's Resolution?? Mine is the standard, "Get in shape" one but that never really works out. Amirite or amirite?!?!?<br />

Let's get to the gaming, shall we? I got <i>Far Cry 3</i> as I hoped I would for Christmas. SOOO, let us talk about my first time into this world as I am still playing it.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Now, as I have stated before, I am not the biggest fan of first person shooters. I like seeing my characters movements and having a bigger view of everything around me. So, when I started this one of course it annoyed me a little. However, I soon came to realize this game is FANTASTIC! (So far). The storyline is interesting, there is SO much island to explore (not a good thing I have a huge fear of water though...THERE ARE A LOT OF FUCKING SHARKS IN THE WATER),<br />

.... the villains are villainous! (I think Vaas might be one of the coolest villains I have seen in a while.) I just am really loving this game.<br />
I will say though, there are A LOT of similarities to my once precious <i>Assassin's Creed</i>. This would make sense considering both are made by Ubisoft. From climbing the radio towers to unlocking parts of the map and other quests, to clearing pirate outposts to make the area safer. Oh well! Still loving it! One minor issue for me though (again, so far...I have barely scratched the surface on this game...) What is the deal with Jason, the main character? He is shooting at all these pirates, looting their bodies, and getting very bloody while dealing with these horrifying situations rather well....but when he hunts, he suddenly can't deal with it??<br />

Gurllllllll, you need to get toughen up!! And this is coming from someone who does not even eat meat!<br />
Anyways, Ill continue to write about this game as I progress. As you can see, I took a break from <i>Skyrim</i> and still have yet to try <i>Dishonored</i>. It has been a very busy holiday season for me, but I promise I won't let you guys down!! That being said...see everyone in the new year and HAPPY GAMING!!!<br />
