Determined... or Stubborn... with some LEGOS!

If you have seen my lame practice vids with my video editing software... you know I'm quite proud of my small accomplishments. So far I have learned to clone myself, and beam things from the video... I think this is super cool... not useful as to date... but super cool none the less...

What should I do with this new found knowledge and software... I KNOW... I will create an intro to my youtube videos... I have been inspired by NEW VlogRamen... ha ha ha... their content is cute too... but their intro video... YESSSS... that is some rockin stuff... Sure it seems simple... but really, that bad boy took some talent and I am now official impressed... and possibly in love (gotta love a boy with PC skills <3 )... ha ha ha ha... So the plan... which will probably send me kicking and screaming... is to make a coolio intro... why the hell not right... RIGHT! YEsssss... go meee...

I havent made a video in a long time... but its because I havent finished a game in a long time... I suppose I could do a generic video on LEGOS INDIAN JONES... but that games was super easy to beat... and now its just secrets and puzzles a second go around... I must admit though... that thing was SUPER FUN! I mean, it was uber cute, and so clever... It played like a platform eh... sorta... but MORE than a platform... and wasnt exactly impossible to beat... but if you are playing with a friend then its REALLY fun. Its just a nice two person social game... in my opinion. So me and the boyfriend played that bad boy for a few weekends and WE BEAT IT! He he he... If you watched the movie, then you knew the plot. No surprises... but beating the game was fun fun... cute fun. So cute... ha ha ha... there was this one point were you got to be Sean Connery! Ha ha ha ha...

Pros: Simple to play, two person or solo play, puzzle solving, CUTE, available on Wii & 360 (not sure about PS3 though), you can replay a mission if you feel you didnt do it well immediately!, the mission are short... so you can just play one or 10... depending on your time, and its just fun to be Indy! You know it! OH... another Pro is that IF YOU REALLY LIKE THIS GAME, well heck... you can play the Star Wars & Batman versions coming up!

Cons: A little too simple, no real penalty for failure, if your partner's not good with the controls then you will pay for it overall with loss of loot, in order to get ALL secrets, you must beat the game completely and then replay (this could be a pro I suppose, BUT there were times in the game I spend TOO much time trying to solve something only to learn I needed to get another character... which I wouldn't get until after I beat the game/level/etc.) .

Actually, this is one of those games you could play with you significant other...regardless of their gaming ability. No matter how many times they die (or you die) the game continues with no real penalty... well, with the exception of lost loot. But if your purpose of playing is not to be a "True Adventurer", but rather just a jolly good time... then heck... what do you care if you have no loot! Its just fun to get through the story (and it really is fun!).

Overall, nice game to play with someone else... I suppose its fun to play alone too... but, I really like it as a co-opt game... not so intense so as someone ends up feeling hurt... but definitely something to make you guys smile while you play. Oh, I guess its good for kids too as it lacks any serious violence. Ha ha ha... when someone dies, they just bust into lego parts... so funny!

Ok... thats my surprise review. Trust me, I didnt intend on doing a review on this right now... it just sorta happened. Just shows you the power of the game... especially a happy little game.

I have been MIA~ Sorry!

It has come to my attention (thank you plusm1nus) that I have been neglecting my blogs and videos. HOWEVER, I have a valid reason... er... sorta valid... OK OK... its not so valid... but it aint a bad excuse either... I got a new dog and FF4 and FF Crisis Core! OMG! Thats CRAZY shit right there! I had every intention of making new videos and game reviews, except that I was playing the games I wanted to review... and my temp-dog was taking up all my time... Ok, I will do this blog in parts and hopefully my MIAness will be forgiven! Are you ready? OK!

1) Temp-Dog!
Recently my friend Ika, who is in the navy, was stationed in Hawaii... good right? WRONG... Did you know that you cannot just pack up your pets and move to Hawaii... NOOOO... you have to do all this blood work and quarantine in the states (mainland)! So poor Ika has just got a new Shiba Inu... and he's barely 6 months only when she gets deployed... so being the good friend I am I offer to watch her precious bundle of fuzzy joy... little did I know that this BEAUTIFUL dog would come to rule over me! I'm serious... he's the most beautiful dog I've ever seen! He dosent look like the breed standard to me... but that dosent stop him from being absolutely DARLING! See for yourself!


Isnt he handsome! Ok ok... so I forced that pose on him... but he's my little buddie~

And with this handsome face comes... errr... challenges... for example... he's 10 months old now, but when we got him he was only 6 months old... which means... he was learning to dig... pee in the house... pee on my bedroom door (the vet told me I should be honored because he was marking me as his human~my vet has a good sense of humor)... overplaying with my poor mini wennie dog... howling at nothing... refusal to eat his food... chasing the turtle... tearing up carpet and all other things little puppies do. Now, if he was say a 10 lbs puppy this would have been troublesome... but at 25 lbs... he was damn near destructive! OH, did I mention he loves to steal my socks and clothes i leave on my floor... and then runs through the house like he did me a favor? he he he... YES, I hated it... but with that face... I just had to grit and bear it! So now I really really adore him, and I realize there are only a few months left before he has to leave me... and I'm getting really sad. But on the other hand, I'm glad his mommy wants him back. I'm sure he'll remember her. BUT SEE, thats why I havent been gaming as much... if you had this face looking at you all day, you'd stop everything and play with him too... AND, he has this clever trick he does when I sit on the floor to game where he pushes the controller/handheld outta my hand and puts his head under there so I'll pet him... HOW CUTE! PLUS, recently he's hit sexual maturity... but his mom wont get him... umm... chopped... because she wants to breed him... so he's being territorial with me... and doing these ninja humps... oh sure sure... laugh it up... he sneakys up on you.. runs & humps! Weirdest thing i've ever seen... we have it under control now... but at first I swear it was like being raped in fast forward! So there you have it... my adventures with Aries... and Ladies and Gents... his name may imply he's the God of War... but really, he's more of a Dink from Kings Quest!

2) Crisis Core: I have been playing Crisis Core for a long time... in fact it has gotten to the point where I am actually delaying on beating it... why you ask... WELL, if you played FF7 then you sorta know the story line... and you KNOW WHAT HAPPENS TO ZACK! I'M SO SAD! I know it coming... in fact I'm right outside the cave of the final battle... I am ready to go in... I am almost at 100% with the side missions, and realistically I could go in and just do it... just go in there and beat it... but then... but then... Zack will die. And I'm not ready for that... HOW LAME AM I! I have this whole shrine to him on my desk top... and you know it just breaks my heart... and I know he has to die or else Cloud cant grow up... and then he cant help him in Advent Children... but damn... he was such a likable character... they developed him so awesome and you really want to lik ehime and I know he isnt coming back... and for some odd reason it breaks my heart... I mean, I remember playing FF7 in the middle of the night with my brother... and then Sepheroth struck down Aris and me and my brother just kinda froze... and we thought maybe maybe she'll come back later... like a resurrection of a phoenix down... but nothing... it was the first time a cried over a video game (and FOR SURE not the last)... so there you have it... I know i'm going to do it soon.. and I need to do it soon.. but I'm sad for Zack's death.. I'm lame.

3) FF4
FF4 was remade for the DS... voice acting and all... OH did I mention I got a new DS lite... its awesome... I use it to keep my calendar as well... it kinda doubles as my organizer.. ha ha ha.. I cant believe I went through all that just so I could carry it around more and not have to covert myself when people say "what is that"... now I can reply... "Oh, its my DS, I use it as my organizer to keep a calendar!" Ha ha ha... Thank you Sakura! People older than me have no clue what I'm talking about... but they pretend... ha ha ha ha... Ok, back to the game... I have been ABSORBED in this lately! Freakin LOVE IT! I LOVE IT... I am playing it 24/7~ I cant WAIT TO DO A REVIEW ON IT... but people keep dying on me! Lucky for me I just get sad and dont cry... but its got magic, a castle, a love story, an evil vilan, a inner sole search... and a saving the world (before bedtime!) What more could a girl ask for... I'm definitely not in love with the hero this time... Which is good... ha ha ha... I get too attached to my games! I will let you know how it turns out... but its a nice remake... and if you never played the original its even betta!

(Im playing Pokemon and Lunar too... not as much as the other games... but I sneak em in now and again... damn Pokemon... ha ha ha...)

So thats my excuse... not a great one... but whats gonna happen is I'm gonna beat em all in like in some weeks time and I'll have a flood of videos that you dont want to see... In the mean time, I'm gonna try to be better... thank you for remembering me! Summer is soon to be gone... go out there and love it whiles its here... because soon when the cold gets here... your gonna regret you didnt!
