Nov 7th, 2012 at 18:12:38 - Soul Calibur 5 (PS3) |
I would be very confident in saying that I like and am a pretty decent gamer when it comes to fighting games and I will even say that for Soul Calibur 5. The only thing truly wrong with this game is that one character is very broken, but other than that it's fair and most importantly fun. The thing with Soul Calibur is that your character can move laterally and not just forward and back. I know Soul Calibur is not the first game to implement this mechanic but it is the first game I think of when I see that mechanic in other games. Soul Calibur has a kind of spell once you start playing you have a hard time stopping. I found it hard to even put the controller down for ten minutes to write this quick review. I would highly recommend this game to anyone with a playstation 3 or an xbox360.

Since I've been doing a bunch of older games I thought it would be good to touch base with something new or that people have been raving over for the past couple of weeks. Borderlands 2. First off I tip my hat to the creators but I must say I'm booing the guy who though of the missions. First off add an actual tutorial teach people how to play. My friend who owns an xbox but has not played a lot of borderlands was at a lost to the controls. He basically had to learn to use his loadout screen by trial and error and the amount of text based pointers were overwelming. Now don't get me wrong I'm not saying borderlands 2 is terrible, it just needs some work in the intro and maybe a slight change to combat but other than that the characters, scenery and items were pretty epic. I enjoyed playing it and I look forward to playing more of it. However maybe this will teach them in future to not forget about those who haven't played a lot or any of their previous games.

Last week I visited the hell named "Farmville" and to keep in theme I decided to play one of the best games of all time, that farmville ripped up on and destroyed. Farmville was basically Harvest Moon on "no challenge mode" it gave no actual challenge to any player, however Harvest Moon made you actually try. It was timed, your farmer did not have unlimited energy and he had to actually sell his crops, not just harvest them. Real variables were also included, seasons for example and feed to keep farm animals alive. It made every action and gold spent actually means something. One wrong step and you could have to start again from the ground up. The best thing however is that Harvest Moon was a farming game that was fun and had role playing! Good role playing involving social situations and even love. Basically Harvest Moon > Farmville any day!

I was once part of the Farmville craze many years back when it was popular but back then I was not aiming to become a game designer and now after hearing about it in class I thought it would be good to return to replay the game again except this time to learn instead of to farm for no reason. I wasn't very keen on Farmville even back when it was popular, to me it was just a simple and to easy version of Harvest Moon and truthfully that's all it really was. Though even for a ripoff it did pretty well. I can't deny that once you plant your first set of crops that it seems to haunt your memory well into your day. I found it distracting trying to study for my Japanese midterm without Farmville being an occasional thought floating in and out of my brain. It was just simple which just made it so addicting... even with all the random crap they added all you wanna do is just plant crops harvest them, expand your farm, then do it all over again. Again and again with no visible end to the madness. All I can say is its good but to addicting and if it weren't for very reliable friends I would not be here not doing this game log.
