Day 8. 'Hexiom connect'

My eight game...




Wikipedia don't say nothin'


I basically did this game out of shear boredom...
Kongregate is offline for a little while, but they leave one game up for you to play, and this was it, i was trying to figure out what game to do for my blog and this one shall work fine.

This is a strategy game, of basically pipe-work, move em' into the right position, win the level...that's easy right?

I enjoy it, and it served its purpose as a 'boredom freer'

I don't have a link to this game, because Kongregate was down, but defiantly look it up...

I give this game an overall rating of '5'



"He-he new chart....is nice no?

Day 7. 'Halo 2'

My seventh game is 'Halo 2'



Wikipedia says: "Halo 2 is a first-person shooter video game developed by Bungie Studios. Released for the Xbox video game console on November 9, 2004,[1] the game is the second video game title in the Halo franchise and the sequel to 2001's critically-acclaimed Halo: Combat Evolved. A Windows Vista version of the game was released on May 31, 2007,[2] developed by an internal team at Microsoft Game Studios referred to as "Hired Gun". The game features a new game engine, as well as using the Havok physics engine; added weapons and vehicles, and new multiplayer maps. The player alternatively assumes the roles of the human Master Chief and the alien Arbiter in a 26th century conflict between the human UNSC and genocidal Covenant. Players fight enemies on foot, or with a collection of alien and human vehicles.[3] "


Sorry for not doing a post yesterday... technical issues.


I borrowed this game from a friend for a while, well long enough to beat it. I really liked multi-player mode. My brother and I spent hours on it, blowing each-other to smithereens...


Personally i have nothing much to say about this game, other than "Go buy it...now"


And that I love rocket launchers, and ghost vehicles.





This game is going on my "Keep forever list"
I give it an overall rating of "0 NO HURT"

Day 6. 'Thief: Deadly Shadows'

My sixth game is 'Thief: Deadly Shadows'



Wikipedia says: "Thief: Deadly Shadows is a stealth video game where the player takes the role of Garrett, a master thief. It is set in a fantasy/steampunk world resembling a cross between the Late Middle Ages and the Victorian era, with more advanced technologies interspersed. It is the third entry in the Thief series of video games.

One of the game's major new features was the ability to explore the City. While previous games sent Garrett straight from mission to mission, Thief: Deadly Shadows allows him to walk the City streets between missions where he can steal from passersby, spy on the townspeople's daily lives, and search for sidequests in addition to major story missions. The game also introduced an ability to switch between first and third person views, and to flatten against walls.
It was released for Microsoft Windows and the Xbox in 2004, on May 25 in North America, and on June 11 in Europe. Development for both platforms started simultaneously. Like its predecessors, Thief: Deadly Shadows has received almost globally positive reviews, winning IGN's "Editor's Choice" award and "Game of the Month" award for May 2004. A follow-up to this game, Thief 4, is confirmed to be in the early development stages by Eidos Montreal Studio.[1][2]"

I borrowed this game from a friend with a green (Halo 2 edition) Xbox, before I got my own. 

This game is fun and hard on many levels. It is a stealth game, based on being, well, stealthy. 

Using different weapons and maneuvers to gain items to pawn, one finds themselves so out-
of-it they begin speaking third person and spell wrods worng.


One of the interesting things i found about this game is the A.I. 

They believe they found you, then you flatten against the wall in a dark corner they fumble around  like lost kittens

This is definitely a strategy game, but I would not recommend it for children. 


However I do recommend that you buy it...and enjoy it, and if you do have it, don't sell it.

Well this will make it hard for other people to buy it. Meh, you figure it out.

Day 5. 'True Crime: New York City'

My fifth game is 'True Crime: New York City- Collectors Edition'




Wikipedia says: "True Crime: New York City is an urban action-adventure video game published by Activision and developed by Luxoflux for the Xbox,PlayStation 2, and GameCube consoles and Windows based computers. It is the second game of the True Crime series, released afterTrue Crime: Streets of LA. As of February 2011, the Xbox 360 is not backwards compatible with the Xbox version of the game.

Plot



Marcus Reed is a gang member who inherited his incarcerated father's criminal empire in New York City. Several years later, Reed is betrayed by a friend and assumed dead after an ambush. Covered in blood and injured, Reed shows up unexpectedly at the traitor's house to exact revenge. After a bloody, running gunfight with gang members, Reed corners the betrayer in a building basement and guns him down. Dropping his empty Uzi, Reed is almost shot and killed by another gang member, but an NYPD detective named Terry Higgins (Mickey Rourke) saves him.
Isaiah Reed (Marcus' father) and Higgins have been friends for a long time. Higgins tells Reed he should be ashamed of the level he's sunk to. Although Reed willingly offers to allow Higgins to arrest him, Higgins refuses. He says he's going to cover up Reed's involvement in the shoot-out, but this will be his final chance to clean up his act before he's left to the mercy of the NYPD. Reed agrees, and shuffles off to tend to his injuries. As he does so, Higgins sighs and says, "Merry Christmas."
Five years later, Marcus Reed is now an officer of the NYPD, having worked the beat for four years to become one of the precinct's best street cops with Higgins' mentoring and guidance. At the urging of Higgins, he applies to test for his detective's badge and a transfer to the Organized Crime Unit. After passing the test with flying colors, the head detective does not believe he is ready so Terry takes Reed out for a few basics, afterwards Reed and Higgins go to visit Reed's father in jail. The visit is cut short by a phone call to Higgins. A contact for a case he's working on has called a meeting in another part of town. Marcus Reed and Higgins hurry to the contact point. Before getting out of the car, Higgins instructs Reed to come in guns blazing if he's gone for too long. As Higgins walks into the building with a briefcase, Reed leans over to pick up some of Higgins' cigarettes that have fallen out of the glove box, and suddenly, a massive explosion sends the unmarked squad car flying through the air.
Back at the precinct, Reed is informed Higgins was killed in the explosion. Reed is denied a place in the OCU, for now. Marcus is then informed he will be going back out on the street as a plainclothes cop while the department investigates Higgins' murder. As Reed resumes his duties, he is contacted by FBI agent Gabriel Whitting, who requests a meeting in a parking garage downtown. Whitting informs Reed a member of the OCU is a mole and likely organized Higgins' death. Whitting does not know who but does know the mole was working with four major crime syndicates: the Magdalena Cartel (a Colombian or Mexican drug cartel), the President's Club (parodying Kenneth "Supreme" McGriff and his gang), the Palermo Mob (based on the Gambino crime family), and the Shadow Tong (an ancient Chinese gang taking slight themes from the original "True Crime: Streets of LA" game). Whitting wants Reed to investigate these four crime groups to track down Higgins' killer. After being given a folder with information on the Magdalena Cartel, Reed sets off on his mission of revenge. "

I got this game free from a friend, because they were bored of it...
WHAT!?!?!
IS THAT EVEN POSSIBLE!?!?!
Anyway i instantly fell in love with its realistic graphics, wide selection of vehicles and weaponry, good plot line, and basically grabbing movement through the game. The fights will keep you on the edge of your seat, or at least before dying throws you back, and knocks over your coffee table, staining your rug, then your dog licks the carpet, meanwhile your moving side-to-side to avoid the dog, and see the t.v, but the dogs not done, he really wants the rest of the soda. He finally moves only to reveal you've died again. You jump up from your seat, out of rage, and throw the sofa (takes deep breath), O.O yeah, its that intense. Although i enjoy every moment of this game, i don't suggest letting anyone under at least 15 play it, or have anyone under that age in the room at the time. It has graphic violence, gore, and adult language/situations.
The 'Collector's Edition' includes a kick-ass wall poster and a bonus DVD.
You should totally get this game, like seriously, right now, why are you even still here, go to ebay, right now, and buy it...ya i went there. 
You don't even have to take the time to bring up a new tab...heres the link...just click on it

 or right click on it...it's gonna be OK...
