Finish Line

I can see the finish line now! It's....a couple months behind me. I've beaten the game Splinter Cell: Pandora Tomorrow. It was the best console game I've played. My only critical comments are:

1. How hard some of it is (just kidding, that's what Splinter Cell is supposed to be)

2. The game was too short. It seemed a little awkward. Good levels and missions. I just feel that the storyline could have used another twist to add to the suspense. Always more suspese I ask for. Enough till I explode....

I highly recommend the game, not to mention the first one as well. Clancy, you're a genius.

By the way, I've also just finished reading "Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell" written by (some guy named) David Michaels. I read this book in four days flat. Couldn't stop reading, it was suspensful and lively. The characters were believeable, and it wasn't like a video game. This had much more depth, to go along with the Splinter Cellish blend of stealth action and a hurricane of a plot.

I find myself out of Splinter Cell things to do. Suddenly the room gets very small...

Pandora: Maybe Tommorow

I am having trouble finding time to play the game, Pandora Tommorow. Expect me to later? I hope so. I am stuck at this level where I have to deactive mines. Comment and help me if you know how. I can get most of them, but the last ones get me always. Frustration.

Expect some kinda of a real post later, or this one to be updated. Great game otherwise, the gameplay is superb but the challenge of the game is, well...challenging.

Pandora Tomorrow

I have not posted in forever, though I doubt anybody read's this. Well, maybe those select people who come along it scrolling through blogs on the Nav Bar.

Splinter Cell was an awesome game. Great. Superb it was. Always tense, demanding to play it in complete silence and usually darkness. That really is the best way to play it and be successful. It's unlike any other game, really.

I purchased Splinter Cell: Pandora Tomorrow. Well, I didn't purchase it, because it was my birthday! Hooray, I got to get the game I wanted without forfeiting my own money. How lazy can one be?

It turns out, really, that this whole blog has turned into a Splinter Cell journal. I guess that's fine with me, and it's also not bad if someone reads this. This can't be strategy guide because that would cause me to lose twenty five hours of my day.

Until next time, loyal reader!

Nothing Short of Brilliance

Sorry to interupt the Web Comic thing, but Part Two will not be today. I just picked up Splinter Cell on Gamecube and it is nothing short of brilliance.

I told you earlier I was going to try and get rid of my blockbuster cards and get it at blockbuster. I called up local blockbusters (4 of them) and none of them had it for sale. I called up Office Depot, and they told me about a nearby store called GameStop. I sure have been missing out. They have a decent selection of games and from now on I will try to go there to get my games.

A little on GameStop: the store I went to was small, but had a decent selection for XBOX, PlayStation 2, and Gamecube. They sell new games (obviously), new systems, and also some used and refurbished items. If you want to save a few bucks for a recent game, buy it used. There was used XBOXs and PS2s for around $120-140 which is decent. If I had that kind of money, I'd get one. I do believe an XBOX would be an upgrade over my Gamecube.

Not to diss my Gamecube either, it is small and compact and is reliable. It plays fine and keeps me anti-social. And that's a good thing, isn't it? But XBOX has better graphics and better games overall.

Back to Splinter Cell!

Nothing short of brilliance, I could say it all day. But I'd rather not, I'd rather play the game all day. Or night. It is a covert-spy game and I can't wait to see how it looks when I play it at night in dark sorroundings.

Go get it if you don't have it already.

Web Comics Part One- FAQ

This may be a little strange for the most part, not the blog itself, but when I post my latest blogs. I will try this summer to make a decent schedule which I shall try to follow with all of my determination, which either way, for good or bad will probably be consistent.

The Real Stuff:

It is likely that you read comics in the newspaper or know someone who does. Most give you a "ha" and then you continue on to the next one. It is also likely that you use the internet daily or know someone who does. If you do not, you are terribly sheltered or are possibly Amish.

Whichever you do, you could be missing out on greatness. This superior, top-rate, greatness is the glory that is Web Comics.

Now you might say: What is Web Comics?

I'd give you the answer: What ARE Web Comics, stupid. But really, the name says it all. They are comics, like you'd find in the newspaper, except these are found online. Web Comics are often done by talented young artists (often male) that have little money and use their time on giving audiences online something to laugh at.

What is the difference between Web Comics and comics you might find in a newspaper?

Web Comics are often more obscene, with out censors and more hillarious than newspaper comics. My personal favorite is Ctrl+Alt+Del (Control Alt Delete). It is about gamers and all things gaming but funny for all.

Must continue later.
