One track that was very tough for me to pass was one that has no walls or barriers therefore when I would turn I kept falling down. It was a very tricky race track. I personally dislike the rainbow track because it is very long and my eyes get tired of looking at the track. The rainbow confuses you and there are a lot of loops. Despite that the game is awesome and very entertaining. This video game is a good social game because everyone can join in to play. I like the game because every track is different. Their is also other modes in which you can play besides Mario Grand Prix like the battle mode or the versus mode.Fri, 23 Feb 2007 19:56:33 CSThttps://www.gamelog.cl/logs/LogPage.php?Log_Id=1462&iddiary=3093Mario Kart (Wii) - Fri, 23 Feb 2007 19:35:47https://www.gamelog.cl/logs/LogPage.php?Log_Id=1462I enjoy playing all kinds of racing video games but most especially Mario Kart. I like Mario Kart because 4 people are able to race together. In the video game you can race in snow, dessert, rainbow, beach, and more interesting tracks. It is a racing game where you play four races to compete for the tournament. I like playing it for a long time. When you are racing you can get random things like bannanas, bombs, turtle shell and many other object that you can throw to your enemies so they can slow down. I like the game because it is very colorful. The game suites everyone from young to old everyone can enjoy the game.Fri, 23 Feb 2007 19:35:47 CSThttps://www.gamelog.cl/logs/LogPage.php?Log_Id=1462&iddiary=3088Gears of War (360) - Sat, 10 Feb 2007 01:11:57https://www.gamelog.cl/logs/LogPage.php?Log_Id=1298Gears of War has everything a game must have. Terrific graphics, awesome game play and the best story line I ever played. I have played the game for a long time now. I am playing the story mode on casual and let me tell you the enemies are really hard to kill and it seems like as I keep progressing in the game they get more harder to bring down. What I love the most is the the team Alpha Squad plays a big role in the game, they are the key of your success in the game. Gears of War is the best game and I cannot stop playing it. I cannot wait to play it on xbox 360 live. This game is totally what next gen is all about. Gears of War is the best from start to finish.Sat, 10 Feb 2007 01:11:57 CSThttps://www.gamelog.cl/logs/LogPage.php?Log_Id=1298&iddiary=2756Gears of War (360) - Fri, 09 Feb 2007 15:40:30https://www.gamelog.cl/logs/LogPage.php?Log_Id=1262The characters of Gears of War are big, strong and tough. You have to kill many big and strong creatures. This game is by far the best game out there. In my opinion is the best game ever made. Being able to run, take cover and make a use of a chainsaw makes this game really good. The game play is really easy to get the hang of it. As I started playing the game I was scare that I might get killed any moment but I was happy that i wasn't killed easily. The game has awesome graphics. Not only is my character (Fenix) big and strong but he looks really cool. I love that fact that i could carry like 3 guns plus my grenades. The Enemies are also hard to bring down and they also carry weapons from shotguns and so on. This game has excellent graphics and game play. This game is the best.Fri, 09 Feb 2007 15:40:30 CSThttps://www.gamelog.cl/logs/LogPage.php?Log_Id=1262&iddiary=2680Shadow of the Colossus (PS2) - Wed, 31 Jan 2007 15:24:35https://www.gamelog.cl/logs/LogPage.php?Log_Id=992The layout of this game is very good. I enjoy running around. You not only have to kill and hide from the enemies but the police is also after you. That makes the game more intense. I did not get bored of it quickly I really enjoy playing it. There is a lot of things to do besides kill people and steal cars. I like that I can customize the character with different clothes, styles, and accesories. The character can also get pumped up by going to the gym. The funny thing is that it can even go on dates and get girls.Wed, 31 Jan 2007 15:24:35 CSThttps://www.gamelog.cl/logs/LogPage.php?Log_Id=992&iddiary=2277Shadow of the Colossus (PS2) - Wed, 31 Jan 2007 15:05:24https://www.gamelog.cl/logs/LogPage.php?Log_Id=992One of my favorite games for Play Station 2 is Grand Theft Auto San Andreas because it is story mode. You take the role of a young man who just got out of jail and has returned to his hometown Los Santos. You are a gang member and you have to kill the enemy gangsters. You need to complete missions in order to move to the next level. I enjoy stealing other people’s cars. It is also a shooting game which makes it more exciting. The music is really cool and the game is pretty exciting.Wed, 31 Jan 2007 15:05:24 CSThttps://www.gamelog.cl/logs/LogPage.php?Log_Id=992&iddiary=2269Super Mario Bros (NES) - Fri, 19 Jan 2007 19:15:08https://www.gamelog.cl/logs/LogPage.php?Log_Id=849This game will always be a all time classic. I love this game. This is like the perfect game for everybody. Playing it is really fun. As the game keeps getting hard the game becomes even more fun. This game will have you in the edge of your seat forever. When I first started playing this game I was amazed on how fun it is. It is really addictive. I love how you could jump and do so many other things that makes the game perfect. All the bad guys in the game are awesome and spooky. This game is a instant classic and this is the game that started everything. This is the best game ever created. Fun to play.Fri, 19 Jan 2007 19:15:08 CSThttps://www.gamelog.cl/logs/LogPage.php?Log_Id=849&iddiary=1897Super Mario Bros (NES) - Fri, 19 Jan 2007 18:36:47https://www.gamelog.cl/logs/LogPage.php?Log_Id=849My favorite game of all time is the classic Super Mario Bros. I enjoy playing this game because it is entertaining and fun. The graphics in the video game are simple but that does not stop me from playing. I like the video game because it is very colorful and the music is very catchy. Overall this is a game that anyone would have fun playing. Super Mario Bros takes you to a hole different dimension when it come down to video games. Keep on playing it makes me love it even more. This is the best classic game out there. Being able to do so many things wile playing its awesome.Fri, 19 Jan 2007 18:36:47 CSThttps://www.gamelog.cl/logs/LogPage.php?Log_Id=849&iddiary=1878Rainbow Six Vegas (360) - Fri, 12 Jan 2007 01:11:29https://www.gamelog.cl/logs/LogPage.php?Log_Id=537This video game is very interesting. Even though I am always getting kill, I still enjoy playing the game. The thing that frustrates me is that if you get hit by one or two shoots you are automatically killed. However, if your partners get injured you are able to heal them. Your partners follow your everymove and you are able to send them where ever you want to. The game is very suspense and thrilling. I like that when you point your gun the aiming point turns red to indicate that you are pointing to an enemy. In some combat you get very frustrated because you do not know who is shooting at you but that does not stop you from playing the game.Fri, 12 Jan 2007 01:11:29 CSThttps://www.gamelog.cl/logs/LogPage.php?Log_Id=537&iddiary=1280Rainbow Six Vegas (360) - Fri, 12 Jan 2007 00:52:01https://www.gamelog.cl/logs/LogPage.php?Log_Id=537I do not really play video games but when I played Rainbow Six Vegas I became addicted to the game. At first I could not control my gun and where I was shooting so I was always getting kill when I was in combat. However, I keep trying and finally I learned how to control the gun. I really liked that you get two have 2 other partners that help you through out the way. I like the fact that there is no dialogue. The creepy music get you really excited. In my opinion the graphics are good. You complete missions to move on. For me the game is hard because you need to kill many enemies and most of the time the enemies unexpectedly come out. However, my favorite thing is that the character has some glasses which let you see through certain walls therefore you can see the enemies.Fri, 12 Jan 2007 00:52:01 CSThttps://www.gamelog.cl/logs/LogPage.php?Log_Id=537&iddiary=1274
