Grand Theft Auto IV: The Ballad of Gay Tony (Game Review)

So this one is the most recent expansion, and the last expansion for GTAIV, and this one was hella crazy. Like the mission were so over the top from stealing a subway car, military helicopter, and an APC. However some of the mission were so stupid, in fact they could have just been a cut scene instead of a mission, but there were only one or two that were like that. The rest of the game was really fun and over the top, you also get new weapons which included a Famas gun, Saw Assault gun, a fancy looking sniper rifle, and an automatic shotgun with explosive rounds. Because you are also a owner to a club you make money fairly easily in this one, i didn't even really have to start spending my money (on guns and armor) until the end of the game. The game ending required A LOT of firepower, especially the final shoot out in the club, shit gets messed up. I enjoyed this expansion more than the main GTA IV game, i was almost sad when the game ended i kind wanted to keep playing more mission with Tony and co. because the dialogue they have is hilarious. Even after you beat the game there are mini games you can play which include base jumping off high buildings and landing on key spots, partaking in a cage fight, drug war fights, and club management. Give this game a play its funny, Violent, and comes with little frustration (because the guns you have are abnormaly strong).

Nothing like fighting for Humanity, In space.

Now I gotta go out and beat the first one, and then buy an HDMI cable for my 360 lol.

Gears Of War 2 (Game Review)

I remember in highschool when the first one came out and all my friends got excited and i went over to my friends house and with another friend beat the entire game in one sitting. I felt that the first one was highly enjoyable but it just felt like one of thouse games that you beat and its like wow, that was cool, so what other game do you want to play? Condemned? While the second one came out on Nov 12th 2008, I can't really remember what i was doing that year but i never got around to playing it, probably because I was too busy playing MGS4, and just forgot about it. I beat this game with a friend awhile ago, and hahahaha what a funny ass game. The Characters look like oversized bodybuilders, who fight an alien race, and end up doing this a lot.


Which just added to more of the jokes being told when playing this game, ok ok the best player and most enjoyable character to listen to is Cole, the Black Guy. Let me just show you some of the quotes this characters says.


Like i said before this guy was hilarious the entire game, like i got to a point where i really did not care about what the other character said, i just wanted to hear Cole speak, says the most ridiculous stuff ever. Anyways, about the game, its pretty much the exactly the same as the first one just with Chainsaw duels, meat shields, mo' weapons, and much more blood and gore. I also felt the adventure in this one was more entertaining just because the scenery changed more frequently, and the locations were pretty original, like right out of a black metal album artwork. The story was better, Dom gets all ancey about finding his wife, and more of the same of like "how da fuck are we supposed to kill this entire creature race and still be alive to tell the tale," that sort of stuff. The gameplay was fun, oh yeah it wayyyyyyyy better to play with another player, like I tried playing with an NPC and omg. I was fighting this boss and ALLLLLLLLL what the other character did was stay at the farther side of the boat and didn't ABSOLUETLY nothing just stood there, didn't even shoot shit. Their hella dumb. Besides the dumbass A.I. the game was fun, funny as hell, and the ending totally left it open for a third one. Overall the game was more fun if you play it with friends and beat it all in one sitting, some of the laughs are priceless, but dont' expect highclass dialogue and story line, because this is a straight up Hollywood action movie staring Vin Diesl, and John Cena, you'll laugh because its so over the top.

Crimson Tide (Movie Review)

"Yeah, horse's are fascinating animals. Dumb as fenceposts but very intuitive. In that way they're not too different from high school girls: they may not have a brain in their head but they do know all the boys want to fuck 'em."

Ok, where to begin, this movie stars Gene Hackman as Captain Ramsey of the Alabama nuclear submarine, and Denzel Washington as Lieutenant Hunter a newly appointed man to the Alabama. The movie is about the tension between Russia and the United States, the movie is kind of like a "what if scenario" and does a damn good job of it also. Quick Summary of the events Rebels in Russia take over key nuclear silos and threaten to launch them, and at the same time the rebels simultaneous start a Civil War in Russia causing massive government disorder in their country. So the President asks Captain Ramsey to go undetected towards the western cost of Russia in case they might have to use one of the warheads to take out the base the rebels have taken. While all seems all fine and dandy, and Ramsey asks Hunter to join his ship as his second in command, questions start flying. Lt. Hunter dissaproves of Ramsey actions on his ship, which causes a stir in the ship which then causes massive questioning among the captains and crew. Then later in the story there ship gets a EAM (EmergencyActionMessage) to rise to a appropriate level in order to launch the warheads at the target. However while in the action an enemy sub spots them and almost destroys the Alabama. While fighting, Lt. Hunter was in the process of getting another EAM but because of the fight the message wasn't able to finish. So with no correct message, both Ramsey and Hunter duke it out, Ramsey believes they should just Launch the missiles now because that's what the message before said, While Hunter is all like Fuck you we were the process of getting a message we need to reestablish connection, because for all we know they could have resolved the problem, and then we fire a nuke on Russia which will then cause a nuclear Holocaust.



The movie is very well executed especially the dialogue between Hackman and Washington, both try to out do each other in the movie with witty history questions, and horse knowledge. I Highly recommend this movie, sure the models of the submarine are a little silly, but dang the tension that builds between the captains and crew mates are one hell of a rollercoster ride. Oh, random looking through IMDB looks like Quentin Tarantino help write some of the dialogue between Hackman and Washington, lawl.

Grand Theft Auto IV: The Lost and Damed (Game Review)

This is the first expansion pack/story for the successful Grand Theft Auto IV game. Overall it was a decent game, i am not sure if it was just me, but i felt that some of the graphical stand points seem to be aging which is funny because this game came out in 2008, maybe i just got spoiled from Uncharted 2. Also another thing that bothered me was when you enter a mission it goes to a loading screen, then after watching the cinematic it goes to a loading screen, then you get on your bike and go do the mission only to get shot by some thug, which then brings up a loading screen leaving you off at the hospital, so then you have to click replay which then goes to the final loading screen... sigh* however at first this really fucking bothered me and really destroyed alot of the mission of the game, but once you get used to the cover system/shooting, you'll find your self dying less, which means less loading screens. Well no that all the negatives are out of the way, the game itself is pretty impressive, the mission were never tedious, and the voice acting between characters were quite entertaining.


Especially when you get the main Biker dude talking to a corrupt congressman, it gets quite hilarious. The game also introduced new weapons which included, pipe bombs, a burst fire pistol, an automatic shotgun with a drum magazine, and the classic saw-off shotgun. While all these guns are a welcome to the arsenal, it seemed that you could never really make enough money, to casually buy ammo, because you made absolutely NO money in the game which made it fairly hard in the game. Also some levels were retardedly difficult when your up against, a swat team with assault rifles, and all you have is a saw-off shotgun and no Kevlar armor, things can get fairly gnarly. One thing that was really nice in the game was because you were the leader of the biker gang you can call your buddy's for back up, guns, or for a fresh bike. While calling your buddies into battle they also get points for surviving which can reward them with better guns, armor etc... The story, was short and to the point nothing really unexpected was thrown your way, but it was enjoyable none the less. Over all it was a fun expansion, with only a few frustrating bits.

Let the Right One In (movie review)

"Are you really twelve?"

"Yes. It's just I've been twelve for a very long time."

I remember watching the trailer for this movie and thinking to myself that it might be a fairly interesting movie to watch. Then it came out, getting remarkable amazing reviews, currently as of now rottentomatoes.com scores it at 97%. So of course i had to watch it, and so i sat down and watched it over the instant player on my netflix. Annnnndddddddd....!!!!!!!!!! It was good... not amazing, didn't blow me over as phenomanal but just decent. It wasn't that scary, sure there was some pretty unique scaring scenes and some of the situations are pretty intense but nothing really jumped at you. But from the start, this movie wasn't really made to scare you, but to introduce a young boy who gets bullied alot at school and becomes friends with the new girl next door (who is a vampire). Thats pretty much it...... in a very short and abrupt summary, people get killed, and highschool testosterone flows rappidly. Sure the directing was very different which did add to the "scaryness" of it, but i felt some parts kind of dragg... but overall it was a decent watch, watch it with your girlfriend (or boyfriend) at night and you'll get some scares, just don't expect to want to go purchase it.

MOON (Movie Review)

"GERTY, am I a clone?"
"Are you hungry?"

This one is kind of hard to talk about, for a brief summary its about a man who is working on the moon and gathers lunar energy which is then sent to earth to provide energy. I guess the idea behind this, is that the lunar energy is so strong and powerful it is able to provide 70% of the whole world with energy. There are only two actors in this movie Sam Rockwell and Kevin Spacey (the robots voice), and both did a remarkable job executing both roles especially Rockwell. This movie is pretty hard to talk about without giving too much up, other than theirs some cloning going on..... which leads to some pretty emotional story telling which surprised me. The pacing of the movie moved along so there was never a boring moment, and right when you think you going to get confused with the cloning bit, the story ties it up very reasonably at the end. All in all this movie is probably one of my favorite movies with Rockwell who really help make this movie emotionally entertaining.
