Animal Crossing Happy Home Designer Review

  

A new Animal Crossing game. Alright! I myself love the Animal Crossing series since they're happy, fun, and time consuming games. Literally when New Leaf came out I played that game so much I dreamed I was playing it in my sleep so when Happy Home Designer was announced I was really excited, like so excited....the most excited. It is a really fun concept it's basically just a whole game based on the designing of your own home from New Leaf but, better. There are all sorts of animals to work for and furniture to try for their homes it's really fun! You can also design buildings and shops which you can then see your animals interact in them which is really adorable and cool. The items in this game are really  appealing to look at and allow for great themes in homes you design.  Especially since the Animals also use the things you put in there and react when they like or dislike them. Also since your a full time employee you have to wear your uniform which I don't like that much but isn't a major gripe. Now Animal Crossing is normally a game that has an in game clock that goes by real time and has specific events happen on certain dates and the fun comes from the people in your town and things like that. This game however is nothing like that you have furniture and spaces to build on for certain animals and it's pretty fun. However it is a series of small jobs to perform so the times you play will be short and frequent, I personally really enjoy designing a house or two in the mornings before school or before bed. You actually end the entire day after finishing designing a home which is really odd that a day just ends in an Animal Crossing game but you get used to it after two or three homes. So unlike previous Animal Crossing games the longest you'll tend to commit to it at a time is around an hour or so unlike previous titles where you'd spend several hours working towards one task through various entertaining means, but since it's efficient at what it does it is sort of a good thing. So over all the main game is fun and quick I think it's a really great game just not marathon material like the previous games. I give it my final rating of 8/10 and definitely say to pick it up.

Indies Blog: Guacamelee

Next up on our indie-venture is a title known as Guacamelee. This game is a Spanish/Mexican themed beat'em up and metroidvania type title, a combination that isn't usually done so props to this game for having a new innovative gameplay style. You play as Juan a simple hard worker and the president's daughter (aka love interest) is taken and you fight to get her back like a true hero! And within the first 10 minutes of gameplay you get brutally murdered......yeahhhhh. But not to worry in the land of the dead you find a mystical Luchador mask which allows you to fight through the land of the living and the land of the dead to save your love from evil!
Now the plot isn't really important but it's still got some significance and is actually pretty  darn good later on but I won't spoil anything for you first time players out there. The art style is really cool and appealing to look at and the references it occasionally makes to mexican culture is nice. The gameplay is metroidvania exploration mixed with beat'em up as I said before and the fighting and exploration compliment each other like salsa compliments chips. The power ups you get are really fun to use and fight with and get better and better as the game goes on. Also Guacamelee makes a lot of references to other games through posters and how you get the power ups which is an awesome little detail. So over all Guacamelee is a really fun game  and definitely a great pick up on Steam or any console.

IndieBlog: Don't Starve

Okay so Don't Starve is an indie game by Klei entertainment which is a Canadian company. Don't Starve in a nutshell is you basically, well as the name would imply Don't Starve. You find food,items, and etc. and build off of what supplies you can get to survive as long as you can. You have hunger,sanity,and health which you need to make sure don't go all the way down or you're basically fucked. Being too hungry and running out of health flat out kill you but losing your sanity just makes shadow creatures attack you (probably killing you) leaving small room for survival. When night comes you need a fire or light of some sort so darkness doesn't envelop your soul and you will be brutally murdered by "Charlie". The gameplay is really fun and promotes exploration of the map to get more supplies, get better stuff, and stay alive and it honestly feels like there's never a dull moment. Even when you're just waiting for night to end there's this atmospheric tension that just makes you feel anxious for the daylight. This game is really fun to play because of the tension and management you have to do in it. It makes you wan't to play more and more after you make progression in the game. After a while you can eventually make a farm and survive pretty easily so you can just explore and fight stuff and build more things. Also once you unlock more characters to play as you can alter your play style and experiment with new things to do and methods to stay alive.  The gameplay and atmosphere really compliment each other this game is addictive,at least to me anyways I just wanna live for more and more days.
Don't Starve Together is a beta for multiplayer Don't Starve it's basically the same thing except multiple people playing, also when you die you become a ghost and can troll a bunch too. But might I say being a troll is super fun especially when you have on PVP and your friend killed you. So yeah Don't Starve and Don't Starve Together both really awesome titles pick it up sometime on Steam or even on the Wii U now.

The nasty Dynasty Warriors games:

I haven't played many Dynasty warriors games but the ones I have played weren't the best. The two Dynasty warriors games I own are Dynasty Warriors Gundam and Dynasty Warriors Advance which are A. Sucky and B. Not a Dynasty Warriors game! So first off lets talk about Dynasty Warriors Advance on the GBA now I just wanna say that Dynasty Warriors Advance isn't a bad game it's just not Dynasty Warriors which sort of makes it inherently bad? Cause I had fun playing it the campaign is alright but it's just not the game you'd hope for. It's a turn based RPG sort of like Fire Emblem except for the battling is different and you can only freely move on paths. So it's like a Civilization Fire Emblem crossover on GBA which is interesting and weird but not really  Dynasty warriors. But anyways the battles sorta close to Dynasty Warriors that a limited system like the GBA could have so that kinda excuses the turn based Fire Emblem style but not really. The battles have an overhead camera and are sort of like regular Dynasty Warriors but not really. If you're noticing a pattern of sort ofs and not reallys then good cause the point I'm trying to make is it's not a Dynasty Warriors game it "sorta" is but "not really" a Dynasty Warriors game. It was only 3 dollars where I got it so it's definitely worth what it costs now. But at full retail price this title would probably fall flat. Next time on Dy-NASTY warriors: GUNDAM

Fire Emblem Awakening review

Fire Emblem is well known for it’s deep strategy and fun mechanics. And I finally got around to playing the most recent entry Awakening. I was astounded how good it was, I heard it was above average but did not expect what I had gotten from it. The combat strategy consists of leveling up units and classes and weapon types. The weapons even have a type of rock paper scissor system and I found it very pleasing and had a satisfaction when I used it to my advantage.

 The gameplay is fun and very strategic (though some stages aren’t the most fun) and every attack has a sort of weight to it in the sense you feel good and bad when you hit a unit or one of your units is hit. Now onto the plot, your goal throughout the game overall is too stop the Fell Dragon Grima from being brought back and is convoluted with many other pot elements. The characters all have personality and I do not just mean the main characters all units you get are all characters on their own. The story has many genuine and original plot elements and can keep the player in suspense.

 Plus the side quests and all extra plot are all good too, and *possible spoiler warning I guess maybe* units pairing up and growing special attack strategies is cool especially since if they have a high enough relationship they can get married. Overall opinion is a great game with LOADS of play time and replay value 8.5/10 

Ikachan Review

Ikachan is about a squid....and is really similar to Cave Story (as expected) in some aspects but also
really different in a lot of ways. It's not just a generic game it's really got feeling put into it and is really adorable. The game play is fresh and so much fun like oh my god it's so simple but addicting this game is not lengthy but what it does have is wonderful. It's a minimalist type game being short and only giving you a few new moves to do and a few cool things at the very end but it's truly great. Swimming in the water just has a nice relaxing feeling too it and the leveling system is really good. It leaves you wanting more so that's why I rate it 4/5 fish (check it out its pretty cheap)

The Zelda post everyone will hate me for

The Zelda post everyone will hate me for.

After finally replaying Oot on my 3ds for the first time in like two years I realized something, I DONT ENJOY OCARINA OF TIME AT ALL. And I think it’s my least favorite Zelda game. Now wait before this post is brutally assaulted with people calling me a troll who just repeats topics let me explain my point of view. I don’t like Ocarina of time because…I find it boring personally. ”But how can you say that with all the great combat and plot in it?” you may be thinking and sure I admit Oot does have a good plot and combat but it has a lot more of doing absolutely nothing when you have to travel through it’s giant empty terrain (looking at you Hyrule field).

This wouldn’t be a problem if you could just do something while walking to your next destination or watching a cutscene. For example in Wind waker you could fight pirates and find treasure they incorporated the empty sea into an adventure, Or look at one of the best Zelda games Twilight Princess they incorporated both of these by making the distances smaller and giving you a cool wolf form to expand upon the gameplay (props to Majoras mask for doing this aswell). 

Also Oot has so many missed opportunities like how in the fire temple the big wall of fire is blocking you and you have to get rid of it, why couldn’t they have made you used those skills to find another way around it and fight a mini boss to get by so it feels like an adventure! I personally am not a fan of Oot and think it’s a flawed game and honestly don’t understand its appeal. So if you read this and disagree (which I would understand since I only argued one point and didn’t explain as clearly as possible) tell me why you find Oot to be good.

Dino Riki (nes) review

It sucks.

Hellraiser 2 is a movie for you.

Okay Hellraiser 2, After all the deaths in the first movie Kirstie explains honestly and she obviously is believed because what happened in the first film was so likely to happen....END OF MOVIE. Nope she's put in an insane asylum and y'know one of the dudes is a psychopath who had been keeping track of Pinhead and other hell-y stuff so he ends up bringing back Julia from the last film,also Kirstie's dad tells her about hell and how miserable he is y'know just Dad stuff. Anyways there's a mute girl who solves puzzles who GUESS WHAT SHE OPENS ILL GIVE YOU A HINT IT'S HELL IN A BOX. So yeah Julia Satanist Doctor and Kirstie all go right into hell so does puzzle girl and Julia throws the doctor into a hell machine then her and Kirstie have a run in with frank who was then killed? I'm not sure how you die in hell but Julia got revenge on him and then it shows the doctor becoming a Cenobite then Julia dies and Puzzle girl and Kirstie escape hell sort of see a bunch of insane people like puzzle girl and Plant monster attacks the Cenobites become human Puzzle girl has back story revealed (the doctor killed her mom) and SOLVES HELL. Yep solved hell it was a puzzle  anyways the doctor did stuff I wanna go into more detail but...it's just crazy. Either way it's the professor Layton of Hellraiser also there's a badass twist near the end too and it shows some cool stuff. See ya for Hellraiser 3 bye.

Hellraiser 3 Hell on earth is VIETNAM for what its worth

Alright this movie is about an investigative reporter who wants to do a story on the box and it's a genius spin on just someone finding the box or anything like that. The side characters are awesome and have there own identity and stories. It gives a reasonable explanation to Pinhead and overall it's really great. A club owner ends up buying the spinning tower thing from the first two movies and gets blood on it and guess what, it starts eating people. Yeah and honestly even the intentional dick was kind of a good character in it's own right. Also RANDOM VIETNAM DREAMS you'll know when you see it. The Cenobites in this one are decent but just kind of dumb, I will admit though it's pretty nifty how they made people that had died become them. Also there's a blood bath later on that's really friggin cool. You may be wondering why I'm not divulging out the plot to you is because even though it isn't the best plot ever I would rather not divulge too much on this one cause it could possibly ruin what it has going for it but I give it an 7/10 a C-.

Hellraiser 1 Frank is fun

Back to one of my favorite franchises Hellraiser that's right we're finishing this franchise even though we did in a stupid order we're still getting it done. So Frank the hero of our story decides to buy everybody's favorite box from hell and immediately dies...technically. So after this all goes down a loving married  couple immediately goes to live in the house Frank used the box in, so yep. The couple is Larry and Julia and Larry has a daughter named Kirstie whose mother is dead...no complicated story just very deceased. Anyways Kirstie is the villain of our story. So Larry gets cut moving in bleeds on the attic floor where Frank died and BADABOOM ZOMBIE FRANK yeah it's revealed that Julia banged Frank senseless so whenever he shows up sex happens through flashbacks and some other events. So yeah Frank pounds it in a few flashbacks exposition happens and    DEATH HAPPENS! So uh cock tease Julia starts taking dudes home and feeding them to Frank, I like to imagine he just uses a bendy straw to eat the men because it never really shows him absorbing them. Anyways a bunch of stuff  goes down along this line and it turns out the mascots after him (aka the cenobites) so he has to do all this healing satanism quick. But Kirstie has to ruin everything by walking in on Julie's not sexing and murder and immediately tells on her "DAD YOUR WIFE'S KILLING PEOPLE!" After that a few events where Larry almost dies...well  before all that SPOILER WARNING Kirstie gets the box after seeing zombie Frank and then has a quick dash through hell where which she makes a deal with the Cenobites to help get back Frank. The point is Frank took Larry's skin,killed Julie,Cenobites get him,STEVE IS ALSO THERE,and Kirstie escapes the Cenobites and then DRAGON TAKES THE BOX. End of movie...overall I love this film and it's a great watch.

Dracula 1992 is a great movie for me and you

FUCKIN YEAH WOOO THIS MOVIES FUCKIN AWESOME Okay so Dracula 1992 is probably better than Bela Lugosi's Dracula....and they all died. But it breaths new li- it breaths new death into Dracula and Van Hellsing or Jonathan Harker or just literally anyone from the book. Firstly I love it because most of it stays true to the original book the plot is near spot on with some changes and additions that are honestly great I mean its rare for a movie to add something to it from a book and be fuckin badass. The actors are all A-listers which I wont spoil for you but y'know pretty awesome cast, and the acting is superb they made characters I didn't care for in the book awesome and lovable and every character feels essential to the film. They all just work together and if you've read the book you know there are some great plot twists. This film is just one of my absolute favorites and tugged at my emotions alot. I rate it 8/10 watch it its on Netflix.

Abbot and Costello meet Frankenstein is fine

NYUK NYUK NYUK 1940s humor is the best. Abbot and Costello are packaging workers or whatever and they have to handle Dracula and Frankensteins body's oops I meant to say NOT-Boris Karloff and they have wacky hygincs and Larry Talbot comes to stop the monster and Dracula. Dracula also causes Abbot to have two dates to the same ball...YEP THAT'S A THING. Anyways there names aren't Abbot and Costello in this but I'm just gonna call them that. Anyways I'm not gonna divulge into this films plot because...it's not very reasonable but there are those cheesy moments in it where Abbot sees Dracula but every time Costello comes he's gone or when Abbot ends up with two dates Costello gets him to give him one. And there's a scene where Abbot ends up sitting on the monster and sliding off of him. And it's a bunch of back and forth humor definitely watch it if you like cheesy slapstick from the 40s. The wolf man and Dracula end up fighting while pushing around Abbot in a hospital bed and They refer to the monster as jr through the film and it's all just lovable. Also EVERYONE DIES seriously almost everyone except Abbot and Costello burn or drown to death. Also invisible man cameo at the end.

Guardians of the Galaxy review because its new

Ok so here are my upfront opinions on the film incase you get confused by what I'm about to say I like the movie as well as most of the characters apart from two of them I say its worth a watch but not to be on the top of your list by far its flaws and problems are very potent but it is cool and Rocket Raccoon had a lot of development with  his relationship with Groot but it just has some awful things in it so let the review of this movie begin.
Guardians of the Galaxy is a film based off of a Marvel comic much like the Avengers or Iron Man or all that jazz and its probably an attempt to make cash off an existing franchise and it's fans. Also one quick thing they made a comic book reboot of the Guardians of the Galaxy comic and it sucks I bought the first issue of it and there were around 10 pages of Groot and Rocket hardly talking with very empty artwork and the rest were pages from older comics so yeah maybe they were trying to cash in while the iron was hot on there movies. Anyways so the movie has a touching scene with Star lord aka Chris Pratt who recently was in a little film called the lego movie which was very popular so you know they kinda tried to draw people in by having someone who was popular recently in a movie they like. MARKETING MARKETING MARKETING MARKETING MARKETING MARKETING. Seriously though Marvel kind of just wanted to make money off of this one by having a recently popular star play Star Lord. But anyways it starts off by having a very touching scene with his mom dying and getting abducted by aliens who do appear later in the movie but its never explained why they were there. Also right before his mom dies she gives him a gift to open after shes gone but guess what he doesn't open it until the end of the film just so they could have an excuse for the end of the film to be touching by having him have a gift his dead mom gave him any rational person who misses there parent would NOT wait 25 years to open the last thing they gave them. And imma skip some crap cause its pointless but Rocket and Groot go after him cause he has a bounty on his head cause he stole a very important object that his love interest also wants then they all get caught and go to jail and decide to team up and they meet another guy who wants to kill her cause her father is Thanos and Thanos killed her family  but he decides not too and come with her to find him and Rocket and Groot help them all escape with some comedy from Rocket on the way and stuff happens blah HE PILOTS A SPACE SHIP WITH ANOTHER SPACE SHIP THIS MOVIE IS GREAAAAAAATZZZZZZ *ahem* I'm sorry for my outburst but they go  to this planet find out it's a badass world destroying stone that he stole earlier and betrayed the aliens that raised him  or whatever then it gets stolen by Thanos goons and they get the stone and Gamoras sister tries to kill her  anyways he has to save Gamora  from her sister by getting her out of space by getting abducted by those aliens he betrayed and they end up all being on there and they make a deal with the aliens and then I cant say anymore without spoilers but Thanos is hardly mention and hes the most powerful thing in the universe apparently but they just ignore him. Rocket and Groot both have a few touching scenes the characters have like hardly any development except Rocket and Groot and they literally decide LETS BE FRIENDS in like a day and unghhhh there are alot of flaws it's still okay but yeah Guardians of the Galaxy 6 out of 10 enjoyable but problematic  so yeah my opinion is probably waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay different from anybody else who sees this cause I know Marvel fanboys love it (I watched it with one) but critics probably wont.

Nickelodeon.....*groan*....is not fun

So feel free to chastise me because this is me nay saying the advertising and "fine" programming (make note of the quotes because I said fine because it deserves a fine for its just...*sigh* awfulness) of the Nickelodeon television network and I understand many people like 5 year olds who will grow up horribly because of this network go ahead like this network so all you enjoyers of current Nick attack me. Anyways   I'm not here to hate people that enjoy shows like The Thundermans and *shudder* Bread Winners no I do hate them but that is for another day. Now I only dislike a very few number of all there programming I'm fine with a few of there shows like most of there cartoons and a few live action things (I also recommend the ninja turtles reboot show they air highly) but let me break it down for ya bruh.

The sitcoms DEAR GOD THE SITCOMS:So Drake and Josh, iCarly, Victorious etc. WERE okay but then Nick saw they had a good thing going and milked all of the juice out of it until a second dust bowl of  bad jokes and physical comedy was born and it is just sickening I mean it's so bad all my analogies can't even do justice to the horror of these monstrosities I mean talk about trying to get a gift horse to swallow you. I legitimatley enjoy Drake and Josh like alot but I mean god damn The Thundermans is just stereotypical family vomit. I mean it would be okay if there just weren't so many who remembers Marvin the Martian.......me neither, It's gotten to the point to where I just have kind of stopped watching the network except for off branches of it and Ninja Turtles on demand (YEAH I HAVE XFINITY WHAT OF IT) because of the sitcoms.
They also try to worm there way into your skull with catchy summer song advertisements that sound and look uninspired as SHIT! I mean seriously they force there ads down your god damn throat with there summer vacation songs and stupid....ness I dunno just...just listen I respect anyone who enjoys watching Nick because it has some good shows and everyone has different tastes I mean all senses of humor vary in many ways but I post this as my personal opinion on the network.See ya next blog I guess.

Girls from 7-11 stay up all day and give slurpees away

Well it's 7/11 today and I felt obligated to talk about 7-11. So today you can get a free Slurpee I enjoyed the new lemonade flavor, but there is the difficult task of what flavor to get. Now you could easily go my route and just get the new lemonade flavor to try it and talk  about it on your blog (by the way go ahead and hit follow) or you could go with a tried and true flavor like cherry or coke. But there are more obscure options you could do like expiriment with two flavors or somehing like that I suppose. But I am an INNOVATOR! Anyways here's my proposal (marry me 7-11), Take the two most crazy flavors even if they dont mix and mix them be wild I say so yeah thats it..... Soooo see ya next blog I guess.

Tetris-tinesday

LONELY GAMERS REJOICE! I hath returned from my long journey in the pursuit of the "girl gamer" and I found out four vital details fake girl gamers love Call of Duty and play mainly one console other than a nintendo one and real girl gamers dig Tetris and Nintendo consoles.Okay first offlet me talk about how girls and alot of guys too who play Call of Duty are like such fakers there are some rare cases of a real girl gamer liking it but not often.But if they play it occasionally and only one of the games then it is a little more likely they aren't fake,also the less fake ones tend to either like Ps3 and Xbox or just Xbox and possibly Nintendo in general too.If they just play Ps3 they are almost definitley fake and if they like nintendo almost definitley real.Also the only constant in the universe other than math is ALL GIRLS LOVE TETRIS AND WILL BECOME REAL GAMERS.Also my theory on Tetris making people fall in love ;). So the theory is if a girl and a boy who aren't related play Tetris of any sort they will fall in love now this is a hard theory to test cause if your a guy and playing Tetris with a girl you probably like her alot sooo yeah. That's all I have to say so happy valentines day.

Spin Six reveiw from a Tetris addict perspective

Okay so if you read this blog regularly (which you probably don't) you'll know I'm a FRIGGINSUPERULTRAMEGATETRISHOLICAN. And I am reeeeeaaaalllllyyyy into Tetris (mainly tetris attack) and even have theory that tetris is the game of looooove <3 (just wait for valentines day).So when I saw I could get a Tetris type game for my coins I've been saving from all my game purchases I decided too get it. And it's pretty good but challenging and in my opinion it's a good thing because in my opinion it's practice for regular tetris. So the goal of the game is kinda like Tetris,robotniks mean bean machine,Tetris attack,and some math added in.You switch number panels into rows of whatever number that is so like 4 panels of 4 would become 4 panels that say 5 then 6 and they disappear after 6. I can't properly describe it to where you can fully get it sooooo heres a picture

of what the game looks like and I'm gonna break it down into all of its modes cause they are different by very much. KK slider first up is Puzzle mode where you either try to make one domino effect of combos you can make with one move to get rid of them all oooooor make on big chain with a limited ammount of moves but it's worth it cause an adorable little guy who tells you fun facts like did you know sloths sleep 20 hours a day are they lazy? (real fact it says) and you can pull up the trivia you've learned from the challenges you have beaten then there is score attack where you get the highest score you can make in a limited amount  of time and sometimes your fever meter fills up and a slot machine comes up and you can get bonuses you can make pretty simple and  the piggies on the spaceship in this game and for the meters and those little guys you see inbetween the puzzle mode that show up sometimes are SOOOOOOO CUTE I mean there friggin adorable I just had to get off topic to say that also same thing with Tetris attack everything in that game is so cute for some reason WHY ARE THESE GAMES SOOOO CUTE.Also ignore how girly that made me sound.Then chain challenge where you make as many chains out of one set of panels and there is a cute little animation that plays and that's pretty much it its fun but could be better.Then time  attack which is my favorite where you just try to get points in a certain ammount of time and it's just trying to have fun. Honestly two complaints chain challenge should be cuter and I want there to be a multiplayer thats not there fault though since no one you know would have also downloaded this one particular game on a not too popular shop format for Dsi users only it was pretty popular but not extremely popular.And that is all I have to say so see you on Valentines Day.(haha that rymed)
