"When aliens misinterpret video feeds of classic arcade games as a declaration of war, they attack the Earth in the form of the video games." [1]

At first I didn't want to watch this movie, because I'm not really a fan of comedies, but this was also sci-fi and contained arcade games. And I thought that I might like it, considering I loved Wreck-It-Ralph.

And I was right. Yes, there were some stupid moments, but all in all, I enjoyed the movie immensly. The basic plot is that the 1982 arcade game championship is filmed and then the footage is send to the space where it is found by aliens that consider it a declaration of war. 

They come to attack earth some 20 or so years later. I'm not entirely sure what 'present' year it takes place in, but I'm guesssing that around 20-30 years passed from the championship. 

A group of people, that are good at arcade games, or were, band together under the president, who used to be an arcade gamer too, though not that good, and they fight the aliens who re-create the arcade games in real life. 

The movie is full of fun as well as intense moments and while I'm not a big fan of comedies, I am all for some fun and I think that this 'comedy' didn't overdo it with the fun and that's good. 

The main characters are played by Adam Sandler, Kevin James, Michelle Monaghan, Peter Dinklage and Josh Gad. 

The guy who played Boromir, Sean Bean, also makes an appearance. Not a big one, but one non the less and that was actually the main reason I watched the movie. Though in the end I enjoyed it regardless of Sean Bean. 

The one actor that I didn't like was Peter Dinklage, but not because of his acting skills, I think he's a good actor, but I just don't like the characters he playes. First it's Trask in X-men, now this little cheating twit. Sure, his acting is good, but the characters he playes make me not like him. 

I would definitely recommend the movie, but I would also say that it is not a movie for everyone. If you like crack-ish sci-fy, you will definitely like this. If you don't, you might still like it, but it is not guaranteed. 

The one thing I do when picking what movie to watch, I go by the people who play in them. If a favourite actor plays in it, I usually watch it without checking either the summary or anything else. 

Most of the times it works. Unless we go by My Bloody Valentine, where I started watching and then I got curiious and went and googled who the murderer was before the movie ended and got angry that it was the actor because of whom I was watching the movie, who was the bad guy that I turned the movie off without finishing it. From that moment on, I decided that I would never look things up before actually finishing whatever it is I'm watching. 

Not that that did me any good considering I did the same bloody thing with Prison Break, only there, I went and googled who of my favourite characters will survive. Again, stopped watching because of the answer I got.

Resident Evil 6

Resident Evil 6 is, so far, the newest Resident Evil game. A lot of charcters are back and some new ones come into play. The one main character return is Leon Kennedy who wasn't part of the fifth gmae. Only mentioned there.
The sixth game is vastly different from RE4 and the ones before that. It is a lot like RE5 from what little I've played of that. The big difference is that RE 5 and 6 are controled not only by keyboard but also by mouse. Or you can just use the controler like I'm doing. For RE4 it is not necessary as it is playable with keyboard only, but RE 6 is best played with controler. Well, apart from certain parts that take too long to react to the controler.
But enough of my comparsions.
RE6 has four campaigns and three of them can be played with one out of two characters. First is Leon and Helena, second Chris Redfield and Pires Nivans, third Jake Muller and Sherry Birkin and the last one is a solo campaign where you play as Ada. She's one of the few female characters that I actually like. All four of the campaigns take part during the same timeframe and the characters meet each other. Each of the campaigns meet at one point or another with all the others. And that is something that I really like about this game.
Of course, the fact that Ada has her own full length campaign, is a bonus, as well as Leon being back. Before fully trying RE6, I was always saying that RE4 was the best. But I take that back. RE6 is the best, so far.
Admitedly, I don't relaly like Chris's campaign, but that's because Piers dies at the end. Or, well, it sure looks that way. Though fanfic authors decided that he lives and comes back. Bless them!
So far, I'm still deciding if my favourite is Leon's or Ada's campaign.
Leon's campaign starts with the death of a president of USA and continues with a run through a city and trying to reach a chaple. There, they fight a boss with the help of some survivors that were there. Follows a trip to the underground to find Helena's sister and another boss fight, thsi time, against said sister herself.
Then fleeing the crumbling dungeon and faking their deaths and going to China or wherever it is. It sounds chinese.
There, they meet Alpha team and then Sherry and Jake.
After that, they have to fight the final boss with the help of Ada. And then, the end.
Now, for the second campaign. Chris and Piers. They start on an earlier mission in Edonia. Fight some virus infected mutated things, two gigantic things, meet Sherry and Jake, then there is a time skip and we go to China. They fight their way through the infected city chasing Ada's doppleganger and end up on a ship and then in an underground facility. But before that they meet with Leon and Helena while confronting said fake Ada.
In the underwater facility they meet Sherry and Jake and fight a gigantic thing called Haos. At the end, Piers is infected with enhanced C-virus and dies while protecting his captain. But like I said, I'm part of the group of people that believe that Piers is alive!
The third campaign starts in Edonia too. This is Jake and Sherry. Jake is immune to the C-virus and Sherry is tasked with protecting him. Well, it turns more like him protecting her, but I'll let this slide.
They meet with Chris nad Piers and fight the two gigantic mutated things, then split up with them and go in a chopper. Well, throughout the whole campaign they are chased by this 'thing'. It makes their chopper crash and they end up somwhere in a foggy place. And let's just say that that is my least favourite part of their campaign. They end up in a cave and have to sneak past the 'thing' in order to escape. It can't see them, but it has really good hearing and can her them if they mess up.
Not an easy part to play through.
After that, they are captured and have to escape an Umbrella facility in China. They meet up with Leon and Helena and have a quick go at the 'thing' before spliting up again.
They end up at the underwater facility where they meet Chris and Piers fot the second time and have to escape Haos, but at least they don't have to fight it. On the other hand, they have to fight the 'thing' in a lava cave. My suggestion is to save your magnum shots for this fight. Or it will take ages.
The last campaign is Ada. She starts on a submarine and tehre learns of the C-virus and when she escapes, she makes her way to the chapple, well, the underground part of it. There, she meets Leon and Helena and helps with the fight agains Helena's sister that mutated. Then, she goes on her own way and to China. Yes, everyone is going to China. There, she vitnesses Leon and Helena crashing a plane and has to fight a chainsaw boss. She saves Sherry from being shredded by a chopper rotor and continues on in pursuit of her own doppleganger. She end up fighting it (Carla) in it's mutated state and manages to win. After that, she goes on to help Leon and Helena with their final boss - Simons.
The last thing Ada does is to wreck Carla's lab in the Quad tower.
I think that Ada has the least of boss fights. But the encounter with Carla in her mutated form is probably the hardest. Well, hardest for Ada. Teh ahrdest alltogether is Haos! And I'm saing that mainly because Piers dies. I liked him! I didn't want him to die!
Oh well.
I managed to win all four campaigns and to be honest, I'm never playing Chris's again. I'm definitely replaying Ada and Leon. as for Jake, it is a maybe. I'll probably replay it at some point, but Ada and Leon have the best campaigns. That's for sure.
Again, there are some extras and there are a lot more things you can do with the game, but you have to have an official version, not just a download from somwhere like I do. But it's not like I'm planning to play online with someone playing the other member of the pair.
There's also something like Agent hunt, but again, requires to be able to play online, therefore official version. I'm not missing it though.
And now, that this post is completed, I'll go and play some RE6.

Lead Ropes

So I've been playing SSO for almost a year now. And for the past two or three months I've been reading that people want lead ropes to be implemented in the game. Well, that happened this week's wednesday. And I'm one of the few who just don't see what the hype is all about. I mean, yeah, okay, looks cute when you're leading your horse, but that's about it. Because it's slow and I don't do slow. 

Why would I wanna lead my horse when I can ride it to my destination. 

And the argument of someone about loosing your horse, well, someone said it before me, but there's the pick-up option that will transport you and your horse to your home stable. 

The new lead function has, in my opinion, two major disadvantages. One, it costs a one-time payment of 135 or so star coins, which is, frankly, ridiculously insane and two, it doesn't give you anything. 

Like I said, looks cute, but that's all it is. 

So yeah, I'm part of the small group of people that will not be buyign the lead ropes and I'm happy to be part of that group. I just don't see myself using the lead ropes. 

I mean, yeah, if it was part of a quest or something, but the way it is now, not a chance in hell that I'm using it. 

Now, if any of my readers are SSO players, I would like to know what you think of the lead ropes and wether you're part of the group that's using it or part of the group that isn't.

Resident Evil 4

Hello everybody! 

I'm back with another post. This time, I decided to tell you something about one of my favourite games. The game is called Resident Evil 4 and as the title suggests, it is fourth in the series. The most basic description would be a third person shooter, but it could also be called a zombie apocalypse sort of game. 

The main idea is that the president's daughter has been kidnapped and an agent is sent to rescue her. The agent's name is Leon S. Kennedy. He is one of the few surviviors from Racoon city, which is what happens in one of the previous games. 

In the game, you can pick a difficulty from easy, normal and hard. The hard is really hard and I think it should not be attempted unless you already have a good understanding of the game. Including what kind of monsters appear where and all the tricks to defeating them. 

For a beginner, I definitely recommend to start on easy. The only bad thing is that you have to start from scratch when you want to change the difficulty. 

I myself have been playing the game on and off for several years now. But only a few short months ago did I attempt anything else than the main story on easy. 

Yes, there are extra stories to play through. The main one you play as Leon and have to fight your way through hordes of las plagas infected people, but for now, we will simply call them zombies, even though they are not your typical zombies. The game has five chapters seaprated each into four segments plus the grand finale where you defeat the main evil boss. 

Apart from the main game there are two extras. One is called Separate ways and here you play as Ada Wong, who can be considered the main female character. In the main story, you can see her helping Leon on occasion and Separate ways is basically everything told from her point of view. All the 'in-between's that happen when she's not meeting with Leon. 

Playing as Ada has one big disadvantage. You weapons cannot be upgraded. But even so. Once you played it for the first time and managed to win, which is pretty damn hard! Well. No. It's not. The boss fight is. Well, was, before I found out how to zoom the rifle. And after that, I've been maing a good use for it. 

It's all about configuring the keys to suit your fingers. For me, it meas similar config to Devil May Cry 4. 

On the side, do any of you prefer games that can be controled with keyboard only as oposed to games that require both keyboard and mouse? I know I prefer those. But sadly, I don't think it's possible to comfortably control Assassin's creed 2 without the use of either mouse or gamepad. Which I have, but have yet to figure the best config for it. 

Okay, side note aside, there is one more story in the game. Again, you play as Ada and I don't think that this one even has merchant. It's pretty damn hard and while I managed to play through almost till the end, I didn't have enough amunition to defeat Krauser at the end. 

I was left with mostly grenades and frankly, I don't think it's possible to fight him with those only. 

Of course, there are also mercenary mini games which I don't really play. I mean, sometimes, in a fit of boredome, I try, but I always run out of amunition pretty fast. And then get cleaved by the chainsaw! Beware the chainsaw! It's evil.

There's a lot of stuff to unlock. Like costums for Leon and Ashley (the president's daughter. Also, there's weapons to unlock. My favourite is the infinite rocket launcher, because that means I can kill the bosses pretty easily. And I love that. Of course, I make it a habbit of not using it unless it is a boss. Othervise, I woiuld have the inventory overflowing with amunition. 

So. That's it. Hope I hooked you up. Tell me if you play the game. I'd like to hear what you think of it. Also, if you are considering getting it, tell me what your first impression is if you do end up playing it!

Heh. I remember that the first time I played it, i was so scared! Scared what was waiting behind the corner! And yet, I finished it and then played it again and couldn't stop. I think that by now, I'm on my seventnh playthrough and with Ada on second. As well as trying to fight my way through normal difficulty. Thankfully, I don't have to worry about Ashley. Considering that she's wearing a suit of armor, which is one of the two unlockable costums. 

Okay. That's it. 

Bye~

The One Thing I Hate About Fanfiction

Or... Maybe two. But for the time being, I'll try to keep it on only one of them. The one I will write about is basically when you are looking for a good story. A summary of a story catches your attention and so you start reading. It even has all your favourite characters from the fandom. 

And so you read, one chapter after another and then BAM! Suddenly, there are pairings in the story. And the pairings are completely what you don't like. For example, in my case, I'm not a big fan of heterosexual pairings. I prefer yaoi or slash. But admittedly, there are a handfull exceptions to the rule, but that is beside the point. The point is, that I think, that pairings, if the story contains them, should always be written in the summary. Or at least if it's slash, fem-slash or hetero. 

I'll give you an exmple of what I think it should not be like. 

I recently read this great story. It had amazing idea, combining Bleach and Naruto in what I think is at least relatively original way. But! There was nothing about the pairings in the summary or any of the author's notes in the chapters. So I was collosally dissapointed when Ichigo is paired with Orihime and Naruto with Hinata. 

Nothing against those girls, but I just can't get over certain pairings. 

One of them being anything involving Orihime because I simply don't like her. So I gues my previous statement that I have nothing against them, is null and void. 

Another character that I can't stand with one single exception, is Ginny Weasley. The only exception is in Batsutousai's stories Abandon and Reclaim where she's at least not paired up with Harry. I'm all for Ginny bashing, but like I said, in this one case, I have nothing against her.

And the last character that I enjoy reading when they bash her, is Tea (Anzu) from Yu-Gi-Oh! I just can't help it. She seems like such a bitch! And again, you can have amazing stories, but the moment Yugi is paired with her, I stop reading regardless of how amazing the story is...

And that's why I think these things should be mentioned in the summaries. Simply because then some of us won't be waisting our times with stories that turn out to be not to our liking. 

The worst, though, is when you manage to read almost the whole story only for it to have a pairing you detest in the last five chapters... In situations like this I feel like strangling the author. Because the stories I usually read, are above 100k words and it makes me feel like I just waisted SO MUCH TIME!

So a shout out to all the authors of fanfiction: Please, put the pairings in the summaries! Or at least leave a note wether it is slash, fem-slash or hetero! Or if it doesn't have pairings at all, write that in the summary too!

Okay, I'm sorry, if I just offended someone, but it really drives me crazy when I'm reading a great story only for it to be ruined by a pairing I hate!

Now, I decided to mentione the other thing regarding fanfictoin that I hate. It is genderbending. Mainly from male to female! Gah! All the promising stories I had to stop reading simply because I can't get over genderbending! 

Just yesterday! I've read a story. It was from the Assassin's Creed fandom. It focused on Ezio and how the others called him a she. At first, I thought it was simply because the author decided to make him more feminine, because I think that he could pull it off. But no! He was completely made into she. And there was nothing about it in the summary. And becuase I don't always read the author's notes, I overlooked the warnings where it was written. And only near the end, I managed to put two nad two together... 

Annoying...

What is it with people and genderbending! 

I mean, I managed to accept MPREG stories and it no longer so much as faze me, but I don't think I will ever be able to get over genderbend. Simply because I prefer the characters in their male bodies. Because then there's more slash going around.

I mean, if you want to put Harry together with I don't know who.. Let's go with Lucius for this example. It means you want them together regardless of the gender of either of them! So WHY THE HELL DO YOU HAVE TO CHANGE THE GENDER?!

IT DOESN'T MAKE ANY SENSE!!!

So if anyone is reading this, explain to me what is so great about genderbending! Thanks.

Wreck-It-Ralph

Hello again, my dear readers. 

I know I've been away for a while. Well, not really away, but not writing anything. It has a really easy explanation. I didn't know what to write. Apart from some papers for school. But that was necessary and not fun at all!

But now I'm back with a post.

I don't really know how far back it was that I saw the movie for the first time, but I don't think it was more than a month. The movie I'm talking about, is Wreck-It-Ralph. It is an animated Disney movie that depicts what videogame characters do after the arcade is closed. The main focus is on the bad guy from the game Fix-It Felix jr. The character is named Ralph and is a professional wrecker. 

And what he breaks, Felix fixes. 

But the problem is, that Ralph is fed up with being the bad guy. He wants to be one of the good guys, or nicelanders, as they are called inside his game. So he barges in when the nicelanders and Felix are having an aniversary party. Of course, it doesn't work the way he would have wanted, but the nicelanders told him that if he got a medal, he could live with them in the penthouse. 

So Ralph sets out on an adventure to get him a medal. And after meeting a soldier from the Hero's duty game, he decides that it would be easy to get the medal from that game. 

But abandoning your own game means going turbo, like a character from a game from a long time ago, that decided to take over another game when it became more popular than his own. But this action put both the games out of order. 

And therefore, while Ralph is getting his medal, his own game is put out of order. At least temporarly. 

Ralph manages to get his medal, but then he crashes a shuttle craft in another game. This one called Suger Rush, which is a pink filled go cart game.

His medal ends up on one of the candy trees and while trying to get it, he meets a little girl. The girls is named Vanellope and she manages to get to the medal before him. And then she uses it to enter her name into a race because she wants to be a real racer. At first, Ralph is mad at her, but then they decide to team up to get her a real racing cart. 

This friendship gets temporarly undone when king Candy, the ruler of Sugar Rush, gives Ralph the medal back for smashing Vanellope's cart. 

And in the meantime, the shuttle that Ralph crashed, contained a cybug, which is a kind of virus from Hero's Duty, that know only eat, kill and multiply. The female captain from Hero's Duty knows this and decides to follow it to SR to kill it before it can lay it's eggs. She is acompanied by Felix himself who is trying to find Ralph in order to save their game. 

Then, Felix falls for the captainess, gets thrown into a dungeon, Ralph gets him out, Felix fixes the go cart for Vanellope, the race happens, it is unveiled that king Candy is in fact Turbo and that the bug multiplied.

Suger Rush is almost destroyed, but Ralph manages to save the day by creating a make-shift beacon which is the only way to get rid of the bugs. Suger Rush is saved when Vanellope crosses the finish line and it is then revveiled that she is the rightful ruler of Suger Rush and that Turbo tried to delete her code and thus forcing her to be a glitch. 

But in the end, all is well, Ralph is liked by the nicelanders, Felix marries the female captain and Vanellope recreates Suger Rush to be a constitutional democracy and becomes the president.

The movie is really good and I really love the animation. Also, it shows that nothing is black and white and that even good guys can be bad, like Turbo, who started as a good guy. And that a bad guy can actually save the day. 

I know the movie is targeted to younger audience, but I really think that it's not bad and worth giving it a try. But that's just me because lately, I found myself watching a lot of different animated disney movies. 

What do you think? Have you seen the movie? If yes, what do you think about it? If not, did I spoil it for you too much? Please, forgive me, if so.

Star Stable Online (SSO)

Okay, first of all, the abreviation (SSO) is really similar to SAO and it is very confusing. 

Now, what is Star Stable Online? Well, it's just the best horse game available. Sure, it is not free (only up to level 5), but I think the money you pay is well worth it. 

The game is a sort-of direct continuation of Starshine Legacy games. Those are kinda old and while not bad, story vise, the gameplay was not the best. 

After that there were Starstable for PC and I played those too. 

And then, several years after I stumbled on SSO. First, I didn't play it because I was discouraged by the paying, but then I got curious and decided to install it and if I like it, I would pay for the full version. So, I did install it. I played for a little while and then I went to see how to unlock the full version, the so called Star Rider status. Well, there was this offer back in February. For 15 days of Star Rider status only an insignifant amount of money so I went for it and then I decided that yes, the game is super cool and that I will pay for the lifetime membership, which in the end is cheaper. So long as you play for more than a year. Which I'm defeinitely planning to do.

So, how does it work? 

You create your account, for which you need an email or your facebook account. Which obviously needs email too.

Then, you download the client (previously you could play in your browser) and start it. You log in and let the thing download all the updates. Then you start the game and create your character. You get to pick from a bunch of looks that can be later on changed in-game. 

The bad thing is that you can only pick your name from predetermined selection. You can combine it anyway you like, but only so long that there isn't anyone else using the same combination. 

After that you customize your starter horse. But don't worry if you don't like him. If you're a starrider, you'll eventually have enough star money to buy the dream horse you want. After you customized the nag, you can pick it's name, it is the same principal as the character name.

Then, it's off to Moorland stable. 

There you will be walked through the basics, like driving your horse, parking it, caring for it and all that. 

For those of you who know the games I mentioned at the begining, this might be a bit boring, but when you get through it, the interesting quests will come. Some of them are weird, but most of them are really interesting. 

However, there are only limited amount of quests available to non Star Riders. As well as only two locations being available. That's why it's better to spend the money on being a Star Rider. You have the whole game unlocked and if you're high enough level, also all the so far available locations. There are some, that are not accesible yet, but I'm sure they will be soon. 

You will meet some of the characters from previous games, including Herman, Fripp aka the white squirrel and the Soul riders. Also, the bad guys will make their appearance. 

So be ready to sneak into their hideout and discover their neffarious plans and perhaps stop them before they can finish them.

What I think of the game? Well, apart from the fact that new quests are only added every Wednesday and not more often, I love it. Like, really love it. So far, it's the best online game I've played so far. Simply because I don't count some of the games as online games. But if you want to get technical, it's the best MMORPG I've ever played. 

I've managed to acumulate quite a number of horses and I'm still planning to buy more. Though I hope that by the time, they all reached their max level, the max level will be more than the current 15. Because seriously... 

I also hope that the new animations that are so far only on the American Quarter Horse will be implemented for all the horses soon. Can't wait to see my black Arab with this new anims. 

It will look great!

And if you didn't figure it by now, that black Arab is my prized horse. My bestest most favourite horse ever!

Okay. Now a bit of a question for you. 

Do you have experience with the game? If yes, do you like it? If no, are you going to try it? And most importantly, do you even like horses? Because if you don't then I would really like to know why you even bothered to read this. 

Oh, and if you know of any similar games, I would be delighted to know about them, so please share. :) Kay?

Legend of Grimrock II

Long time no see! Right? 

Well, I'm back and I hope I will be able to post more often. I just didn't have much idea as to what to write. The only thing that has been updated recently, is my english stories site, that I believe has a link in the side menu. 

The site is actually linked to what I want to write about. I want to write about the game called Legend of Grimrock II. I had the first game for about two years now. The actuall game, not a pirated version. And then I read that a second installment will be released. That happened in October 2014. And I got it the same year for Christmas. 

Though, to be honest, I bought it earlier and just got the money for Christmas.

So I was playing the game, at that time, there were not enough mods, but I made due. I even started on the original game, though I don't like to play the original unles it has been transformed into a mod. So I'm hoping that Komag or someone will come through like Komag did with LoG 1's main map.

However, the character system has been revamped to almost perfection. Why almost? Well... They still have to add the choice of elven race to pick from. 

I mean, sure, I can just pick human and make my own portrait for them, but that's not elves...

On the other hand, it's now easier to play with only one character. Because regardless if you're a mage or a warrior, you have the same skillset. My recommendation for single cahracter playing is to pick a war mage or whatever it's called. 

Another thing, that has been ravamped, is the alchemy system. You no longer need flasks but on the other hand, you need to have at least one point in the alchemy skill in order to actually do alchemy. Also, if you have the correct ingredients, it let's you brew potions that permanently raise your strength, stamina, vitality and so on. In Legend of Grimrock 1, this was only possible through mods, for example the mod called Forbidden Halls, which is perfect and if you play Grimrock, I think you should give it a try. 

There were other things that were improved, an entire race was added and new portraits were made, which really doesn't concern me, as I play almost strictly with custom portraits. Especially now, that I figured out how to put them in Grimrock 2. In order to put custom portraits in Grimrock 2, you have to name them in a speciall way. The name of the portrait needs to be: race_gender_something.tga

If named in any other way, the portraits won't work. I think. 

Okay, I checked my own portraits folder for LoG2 and yes, this is correct. You have to name them in that way or it won't work. 

Fun fact: Most of the custom portraits I'm using, are male. I think there are only two females. Maybe, but that's a big maybe, there are three, but I wouldn't bet on it.
Well, changes or no changes, the game is amazing and if you're into RPG, fantasy or dungeon crawlers, you just have to try it. Be it the first one or the second one. I think that the second one is better actually, but there's one thing missing. Apart from the elven race, but there's not much that I can do about that.
However, there's a mod missing in the Log2. And that would be the Forbidden halls for LoG2, but since the creator of the Forbidden Halls is no longer active and probably decided to go and crawl into some hole or something, let's just say, that that will probably not be happening.
Oh well... I'll just have to find a mod that's even better than that.
Bye.

Assassin's Creed

(Written on the 22nd of January, 2015)

I found something. And that something was my old copy of the Assassin's Creed II game. So, I made it to work, which took a while, but now it's working. And I have to say that thanks to ACII I stopped playing Grimrock. :D Oh well. Guess it would have happened at some point anyway. But, ACII is like the best out of all the AC games I played. Yes, I have yet to play Unity and I will not play IV, because the naval combat and the ships don't really interest me, but hey, ACII is the best. With Brotherhood being a close second. 

The reason I dislike AC Revelations is because it's too sad. And those of you who don't think the moment in Altair's library wasn't sad, are good-for-nothing brutes. The only excuse is if you haven't played it and therefore don't know what I'm talking about.

The only moment that might actually be able to rival this scene, is when Desmond dies, but as I stopped playing before that happened, I can't really tell. And I'm not planning on finishing ACIII anyway. It's just not the same when Altair and Ezio are no longer main characters. I mean, after Revelations, it's like those two no longer exist... And that's why I went back to playing as Ezio in ACII. 

I'd go for ACI, as that has Altair and I love the combat there, because counterkill works everytime, so long as you time it right. 

But my copy of ACI is in czech and somehow, I don't think it's the best language for these games. 

Which brings me to a question. Why the hell did I install ACI in czech in the first place?!

Well, at least my cousin's son Mates is happy about it. Heh, but he won't like me when he comes this saturday, as I uninstalled Batman Arkham city. 

Oh well. Not my fault. He can go and play something else. It's not like I have a shortage of games. 

Seeing as I even managed to get my Oblivion copy to work. And it still has my saved games, mainly Sepulchure. Which is the only one of the saves on which the game is actually finished. 

By the way, those of you who know Oblivion, did any of you play as vampires? Is it possible or will the sun always kill you? I'm thinking of trying it ans saving it on a separate slot, so as not to get it mixed with the finished save. So, do you think that it's worth it to become a vampire? 

And if I wear a black brotherhood robe, will that work as a defense in regards to the sun? 

Even though I have to admit that I hate playing with a helm of any kind on. 

I prefer it when the hair is visible. 

And now, I believe we are way of topic. Because this started as a post about AC and not Oblivion... 

Oh, and Skyrim lovers out there, was it good? Should I consider installing it back? 

And now we're even more of topic...

Anyway! I think I'm gonna go back to playing AC or soemthing. I mean, I have that black armor of Altair and relatively early in the game. So now I can focus on all the side quests and raising Monteriggioni's value. It's gonna be fun. 

Bye!
