Great news

Well great news is that I got my Fable II back for those of you reading up on my blog, my "Friend" returned it with no trouble after me and my friend lied and said it was his...but whatever, whatever gets it done.

Over the break I got battle field: bad company..I'm fairly disappointed in the game, don't get me wrong however..its a fun game, but it could have been dealt with so much better:

1) They went back to the 100 health system (or whatever you wish to call it) after the innovative heal after a set amount of times..it seems a shame to revert.

2) The ENEMY AI are masters of hiding, shooting, accuracy, and apparently have super human senses, where as the main character and his company are not very suave at hiding..or any of the things above for that matter...they rely A LOT on the player, where as the player SHOULD be able to rely on them

3) I haven't played on line..not because i didn't want to..because its more likely to revive dinosaurs that bred with Elvis, than to find an online match...

The game however IS really fun...the healing infinite healing canister I suppose makes up for the revert to the health system...

What i REALLY love about this game is the environment was INTERACTIVE!!!!! you blow up walls tear down trees and fences..its great...if more innovative games (such as CoD4 for example) had done more interactive environments instead of just shooting through walls..I wouldn't really EVER need a new FPS..because i'd be to addicted to the game... :D

    I really hate to betray MK like this, but I had to go with Street Fighter. The first few Mortal Kombat games didn't need 'depth' per se , it was meant just to be a fighting game, so all it really needed was arcade mode. Don't get me wrong I really do love story lines and story modes, I tend to get involved with the characters, its how I work, but at that time I really felt like MK didn't need one.

    Street Fighter was a great game, it posessed SOME SORT of story mode, even though really it was just characters talking their way into a fight... but that doesn't matter.

    The greater difference is it wasn't EASY..in the first few MK games all you really had to do was click 1 button and the other person wouldn't get a chance! Though the fatalities were EXTREMELY hard to figure out on your own, I suppose that was the attempted balance.

    WIth Street Fighter however, you really did require more than a little luck, it required a general since of skill, I mean...you could still haduken your way to victory, but the other person still had a chance.

    This is a really obvious comparison, and it doesn't just go for the 2 games stated, its for the entire first generation vs. the newest generation.
    I never thought I'd say this but what the pokemon games DIDN'T need was better graphics, that took away the authentic feel of the game, not to mention they need to stop making new pokemon.. I mean...how can you 'catch 'em all' if they keep making more...And the new pokemon names are generic, unoriginal, and lazy..I mean..Half of the time it looks like they put two descriptive words together...
    I feel pretty passionate about this one...because being a little kid when pokemon came out gave me a strong since of pride for the orginials and the game...So maybe I'm biased..but I truely believe the orginals were 10 fold the new ones..(Pretty much past johto) were bad (Though, being as hypocritical as I am..I'm playing Pokemon Diamond currently..just because DS doesn't read past advance..and I want to play a pokemon game..so I'm not TOO picky right now :D)

    Bioshock was truly one of the most epic survival games I've played, everything about it screamed different, the depth of the storyline, and the setting, an underwater utopia set in the 50's,c'mon, who thinks of that? The random mini-games (for hacking and such) really kept you entertained as well , the game play, giving you a series of physical enhancements, despite the fact that fire and electricity are common, really had different ideas as well, and, though this isn't as innovative, I loved how your choice to save or kill the little sisters affected the end.

    F.E.A.R was just another attempted pop up scare in my opinion, giving pretty gruesome depections to try to envoke fear, when in reality the game wasn't near as worth the hype of how scary it was. I love gruesome, but I don't like how it tried to use that as really the only scare tactic in the game. In my opinion the storyline was a bit etchy to follow as well, and not nearly as entrancing enviroment wise as Bioshock, it all felt like most shooters, through warehouses and things like that. The game play was pretty bland, not really appealing to anything different than normal shooter games.

    Even though Bioshock is a single player game, and I couldn't see it as anything else, could play it over and over, for hours on end.

    Call of Duty 4 was the first game that Infinity ward had published since selling it to Treyarch for CoD3, and I have to say, they did a great job at the come back, not only did the break the expectations of war games to be about World War 2, they broke the bounds that Treyarch had done with Call of Duty 1-3 and World at War.
    The game play on both is very similar, but what really catches my eye about CoD4 is the modern day setting, not to mention it was the first of the series to be rated M finally having enough captivation and realism to deserve that title. I also like the maps and online multiplayer.
    Call of Duty 4 began many things, such as the shooting through walls, and the perks and leveling system.
    However, don't get me wrong, World at War is fun, especially the added feature of blowing people apart and getting to see it happen, certainly making it more graphic.
