The battle that frustrated both myself and my wife was Cerberus. That horrible 3 headed dog! What a pain in the butt he was! Finally figured out his weaknesses and offed him.
It's worth the effort. Each environment about the city has it's own unique challenges. And the boss battles are spectacular.
The rat does tend to stick in people's minds. For me it did. About a month prior to this game I had to fight a huge rat in my friends barn. Scary big and mean as hell!
Not so! It did get a bit graphic at times. Aya is very pretty,so you are lucky about that girlfriend. I'm a fan of horror films so those parts drew me in.
GamerDad looks like a terrific site. Will definitely be checking that out later tonight. Great reviews!
The death of Aeris made me cry. Hey! I can admit to having emotions. One of my most recent gaming moments to have that same impact? The conclusion of The Walking Dead game. The scene with Lee and Clementine. That was rough.....wow. Just wanted to say thanks for sending the code to Skyrim. I got so excited I accidentally deleted your message! I'm sorry,I will send a message with me email to you on XBOX tonight.
Oh my God! I was right about Michaela? I must have ESP. That was the name of a friend of mine in high school. Only met two other women with the name ever since then. And I get a copy of Skyrim? This is going to be great because I don't have it yet. My son owns a copy,but we keep our collections separate. My email is simple. I will send it to you thru a message on XBOX. Thanks for the invite on there,btw.
This is such a good blog I had to return. You made an excellent point in the Rihanna portion. So many people limit themselves when it comes to music. They refuse to open up to any form except what is around them. What friends listen to,what is on TV,what the radio dishes up. Lot of it is crap,but they don't know any different. So they allow themselves to become encased in boring,mindless drivel. Like you said,good music is transcendent. It can take you to another place. Take you away from this dismal place our country finds itself in. I was listening to a song today that can do that for me every time. It was Boadicea by Enya. It's off the album The Celts. When I hear it I feel like I'm in the highlands of Scotland. Haven't been there since I was a very young boy. But it can take me back. Three Days Grace is a damn fine band that I do like. Your point about lyrics rings true. They can touch you the same way the music does. Empathy? Knowing someone else has been through the same stuff you deal with. Powerful and potent words can do it. That is exactly why I don't get hip hop. Not to bash it,there are hugely talented people making it. But why not use a good song to convey emotion,or perhaps even a point? Some hip hop artists do this and do it well. But they are few and far between.
Now if they could just invent a holodeck. That would become the ultimate game room! You would live out the game instead of just playing it. Only problem is,most people would use it for gettin' their freak on!
Since I'm currently playing Twin Snakes I will have to keep an eye out for that Gamecube.
