Fus Ro Dah Review

The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim is a master piece. From the graphics to the story to the beautiful scenery and music. I love how they definitely improved from The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion. Characters creation is great, the skills and leveling system is awesome the crafting system is a plus. ......and of course the DRAGONS. I love how you can just get lost in this massive world and randomly be attacked by a dragon....and no two dragon fights are ever the same. Over time they added DLC quest which added lots of more content. Hearthfire DLC added the ability to buy plots of land and build you own home from scratch and being able to build whatever rooms in your home you would like (armory room, enchantment room, trophy room), Dawnguard DLC added new locations and quest regarding a vampire lord and the choice of becoming a vampire lord your self (giving you access to becoming more stronger than a regular vampire and it also added skill perks to the werewolf transformation). The Dragonborn DLC allowed you to return to Solsthiem a frozen island North of Morrowind (this island was in the elder scrolls III: Morrowind) this also added tons of content and new locations to explore along with new quest, weapons and armors to try out. Overall the entire package of Skyrim is a excellent game a must have or must play. The game original released on 11-11-11 (November 11, 2011) and is still being re-released til this day. It has been released on Xbox 360, ps3 & Xbox One, ps4 with the enhanced version, also on pc and its coming to the Nintendo Switch, a VR version is coming to the PlayStation VR which I can only imagen being epic.

Pros
Beautiful World and Music to enjoy
Lots of content to enjoy
Game feels different each time you play

Cons
Can have lots of bugs
Can glitch game in many ways
Removal of spell creation

Senran Kagura Peach Beach Splash Review

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOO MY......what can I say if you are looking for a WAIFU then look no further than the Senran Kagura series lol especially Peach Beach Splash lol. This was actually my first Senran Kagura game and I must say I enjoyed it very much.............for its GAMEPLAY OF COURSE. This entry takes the shinobi ninja girls from the Senran Kagura series and invites them all to a beautiful beach resort on and tropical island to take place in a water gun tournament called....u guessed it PBS (Peach Beach Splash). The girls of course take this moment of to brush up there skills and prove that their clan is better than the other clans participating in the tournament. The winner of the tournament will be able to get a wish for anything they desire. The main story is broken up into four main mini stories (one for each clan) once all four stories are completed a new story path unlocks leading you to the true ending. There is a lot to do in Senran Kagura PBS, from participating in the four trophy Cup tournaments to the main story to side story missions. If you enjoy collecting things within games than this game is perfect for you.....you can collect outfits for the 20+ playable female characters, there is over 100+ cards to collect along with illustrations. music. stickers and profile icons. There is a multiplayer mode with ranking but I did not dive into this to much but it was fun. The SK games usually have the same roster of characters though in the other games each character plays different and has their own abilities. In PBS they all play about the same except their melee attacks are all different because in this game they use a card system which gives you abilities, pets to summon during fights, and your weapons which can be equipped to any character in any way you want........sooooo basically you can play with whatever character you find the most appealing.....in their bathing suit lol. Overall the game was super fun to play though it is not to be taken too seriously, the game is suppose to be humorous and whacky and definitely a fan service due to all the girls having huge breast and looking super innocent and cute (them jiggle physics though O_O). I would recommend this game to anyone who wants to play a fun game with lots of customization.....or want to stare at anime girls half naked (or is looking for a waifu).

Pros

Fun gameplay, lots to collect, lots of anime boobs (sorry)
Lots of modes to play so it always feel fresh
The card system works well and the characters are awesome

Cons

Main plot was kinda weak
Though it has 20+ characters they all played the same.
melee attacks missed to much and the game was overall to easy.

Minecraft Review


So I have played this game since 2012. Originally on the xbox 360 and then on the ps3 when it was released. I have played this game so many times on different platforms. I obtained the Platinum Trophies for the ps3, ps4, vita versions and got most of the achievements on the xbox one edition. Minecraft is a great game overall, you can play survival mode and start with nothing and build your way up and try to survive. Or you can play creative mode and have all in game items, objects and creature at your disposal and build whatever you can think of. Minecraft eventually added a multiplayer mode called Battle mode which created different mini games like snowball fights where you throw snowballs (obviously) at your opponent and try to knock them off a few platforms until they fall into lava or battle mode which places you in a arena and in the middle of the arena (starting point) is a few treasure chest full of random items to help you in the battle (such as potions, or armor/weapons) and through out the level are more chest full of items...and basically it plays like the Hunger games everyone rushes to the chest to get the items and after about 10 seconds you can start the battle and see how long you can survive. Minecraft is a huge famous game across all ages and is constantly being updated with new features like the gliders and the glider races. There are mods and so many different texture packages that you can buy to make the game look different. I do wish they could have added a adventure mode that could have gave it a small story or plot with quest that could have lead to a final battle with the Ender Dragon. Overall Minecraft has tons to offer and I highly recommend trying it out.

Pros

Can create just about anything you can think of
Constantly getting updates
Solo or Multiplayer is fun

Cons

Lack of story mode
Some feature get taken away with updates
Joining a multiplayer game can take a few mins.

Birth of Mario

Super Mario Bros. is a legendary game. It was the birth of Mario as a platforming adventure game. Til this day I feel that Mario games hold the title as best platformers. Super Mario bros was an excellent game with the few power ups and secrets that the game had. Obviously everyone knows the story of Mario....Bowser kidnaps the Princess and Mario goes through different levels (Lands) to reach a castle and defeat bowser...upon defeating bowser Mario is then greeted by toad the true trolling villain .lol jk...but then he is greeted by toad who explains to Mario that peach is in another castle and so on and blah blah... other than that Super Mario bros is a amazing game and for some reason if you have yet to play it I highly recommend to get out of your cave and play this dam LEGENDARY GAME.
Pros

Legendary Platform
Fun Levels
Challenging obstacles
Cons

Cant backtrack on levels
Bowser is not that challenging
Toad is a TROLL lol jk

Walking Dead Michonne Review


What can I say...I loved this chapter of the Walking Dead games. Michonne was a amazing protagonist in this game and she was just as badass as she is in the show. The game was shorter then most telltale games being only 3 episodes long and the were about an hour each in length. I feel the choices were pretty well done and impacted the story. The action in this one was pretty hardcore and intense. It was nice to see and to learn more about the character Michonne...I was shocked to learn that this game takes place somewhere in the middle of the show/comic (she leaves ricks group). After playing this Michonne def. has become one of my favorite characters of the series. It def makes me want to get back into the show since I stopped watching it in season 3 I believe...I know HORRIBLE. Overall I highly recommend this game to any telltale fan or walking dead fan.
Pros

Very fun
Intersting side story to the series
Badass choices
Cons

Only 3 epsidoes instead of the usual 5
each espidoe was only about an hour long
To short to get attach to some of the cast

A Plague Tale: Innocence Review

A Plague Tale: Innocence is an action-adventure horror stealth game developed by Asobo Studio and published by Focus Home Interactive. It came out for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, Microsoft Windows and PC in May 2019, and received generally good reviews.

The game starts off in late 1348, Amicia de Rune and her father are out hunting when they come across the 1st major rise of the plague . When they arrive back home it becomes invaded by the English Army. The English Army starts to destroy their home and killing their servants while searching for Amicia's little brother Hugo who most of his life has been locked at home due to a illness. When Hugo and Amicia escape the games story officially starts and Amicia searches for allies to help protect them against the English Army and find a cure for Hugo's illness .

Gameplay wise you will be controlling Amicia through the majority of the game. Using stealth and crafting items to help you avoid soldiers and the plague infested rats . The game has light puzzle moments that you will need to solve to proceed to the next section. The game is always making you feel tension, because the fact that you play as a young girl who is not a warrior so getting caught by soldiers could mean automatic death (their is no health bar or anything....if a soldier spots you and catches you he will kill you in one hit). The horde of rats also kill you in one hit as well since hundreds of them could swarm you in seconds.

But this does not make the game bad or boring in any aspects, using stealth and items to avoid soldiers feels great, there are times where you can use traps to kill soldiers or even use the horde of rats to clear a section of soldier as well. Amicia is not completely helpless and she has a sling (slingshot) and uses rocks as ammo to fight soldiers. Hitting a soldier in the head is a one hit kill but this does not make Amicia over powered as soldier will run towards you and Amicia will have to charge her throw (making aiming more tense), there will be times where soldiers will have helmets on and you must use other items to help you remove the helmet off, thus making the enemy aware of where you are hiding.

There is a light crafting and upgrading system in game, the crafting system will be used to create new ammos for Amicia's sling (ammo that can distract the rats or light fires etc). The upgrading system is used to upgrade Amicia's sling (making it stronger, more silent and quicker to use) and her pouch (allow her to carry more ammo and supplies). Later in the game a alchemy section for upgrading appears allowing you to create more with less supplies.

Most of the game you will be escorting Hugo and protecting him as well but he does not play as a annoying escort ( he does not gets in the way or blow your cover) especially later in game he is more useful. As the chapters go on the games story gets more intense and you meet other victims of the plague and the English Army. Through the story you will kinda see Amicia and Hugo lose their childlike innocence, doing things they have to in order to survive.

I highly recommend this game for the story alone, it has deep moments, great characters and beautiful graphics.

Pros
Great story
Good characters
Fun gameplay

Cons
Upgrading items are scarce
Game was short

 

[Gamer Steve]

Detroit : Become Human is an adventure game developed by Quantic Dream and published by Sony Interactive Entertainment for PlayStation 4.

The game is a strong story based game which your choices determine the outcome of the events that play out for the rest of the game. You as the 3 playable characters in the game which are:

Markus, a caretaker android for a famous painter who, after gaining consciousness, takes it upon himself to free others like him so that they can all be free.

Connor, a police investigator android tasked with hunting down androids that have deviated from their programmed behaviours ( self aware androids).

Kara, a housekeeper android who develops artificial consciousness and becomes responsible for a young girl who becomes like a daughter to her.

The games 1st chapter starts the game strong but then after that it slows down a bit to introduce the other characters (so stick with it because after the slow down the game becomes amazing). Detroit Become Human does not have any game overs, if you fail or mess up during a event the character you play as or one of the important NPC could be killed off and thus changing the story for good. The game has many different endings depending on the choices you make for each character.

The developers want you to play the game without reloading, if you feel like you make a mistake, they want you to feel like this is real life, where every choice may have a consequence and you can't go back and change it (so if you choice kills someone off, don't reload it but continue the story without that character).

The game feels like a sci-fi drama with quick time events, which is refreshing from most triple A titles. The game developers also made Heavy Rain and Beyond Two Souls which are also similar to game play and are very strong narrative based games. During my play time I felt connected to each character and actually felt bad when something went wrong in their story. Out of the 3 characters I enjoyed Markus story line the most as i felt his cause and his fight was the most interesting. The games music and graphics are done very well making the immersion more intense.

Detroit Become Human knows how to tug on your emotions making you feel many emotions during your play through ( at times I wanted to possibly attack a character who was pissing me off but I knew it would affect the other characters or even the story). Since the game has multiple endings and multiple outcomes the game has massive replay value.

I highly recommend this game to anyone who likes scf-fi or heavy story games. Just be ready to feel those heart strings tug.

Pros
Amazing story full of emotion.
Great characters, music and setting.
Choices change the outcome of many situations.

Cons
Sometimes the button prompts where to quick.
The characters rarely run in game so your walking from point A to B is slow.
