MIrror's Edge

So once I was finally able to get my gamertag to work on Saturday morning I spent maybe a Hour playing Mirror's Edge.

For what it is, its a pretty interesting game. Sadly, I am not sure what the hell it is to be honest.

The graphics are pretty stunning.....as far as the surrounding goes.

It just feels a bit...linear, yeah you can jump over this air conditioning vent or that one, or jump over the fence from the top of a building or just climb over it, but you still are getting grom point A to point B in a way that feels very controlled. You can tell by playing it that they makers really needed you to go in a certain direction and path.

The controlls are fairly easy and it does have the first level as a quick training game that will net you a few AP points on the 360.

This game is seriously a rental. I can not imagine it having ANY form of replay value at all.....ever.

I can't even comment on the audio because it if there is any form of incidental music playing in it, I don't even recall hearing it.

The story, I am honestly into chapter 2 and I am not sure what the hell is going on. A politician has been killed and I am not sure if they are blaming my character or my characters sister or both of them....and to be completely honest, I couldn't give to gassy shits about it.

On a scale of 1 to 5, I give it 2 sprained toes out of 5.

John Wayne

God damn I love John Wayne movies....

"I won't be wronged, I won't be insulted, I won't be laid a hand on. I don't do these things to other people and I require the same from them."
- John Wayne in The Shootist

"He was bigger than life. In an age of few heroes, he was the genuine article. But he was more than a hero. He was a symbol of so many of the qualities that made America great. The ruggedness, the tough independence, the sense of personal courage - on and off screen - reflected the best of our national character."-Jimmy Carter's eulogy for John Wayne June 11, 1979.

Reynolds Wrap versus Sandpaper

So Rabb has me thinking.

If I could only choose between Reynolds Wrap and Sandpaper to wipe my ass for the rest of my life..which would I choose? I have a unlimited supply, so here's where it gets interesting.

Sandpaper: Pro's. Durability, you won't be dipping into the puddin with sandpaper that's for sure. Cons: Anything with to low of a Grit count and you are going to sore at the least, and bleeding like a 120lb white guy in prison.

Reynolds Wrap: 1)Cellophane: Pro: Definately smoother. Cons: You are going to be on a bigger smear campaign than this years presidential runs. 2)Aluminum Foil, much like cellohphane, you are going to be spreading the joy around for a while. Cons, you are much more likely to accidently turn your butt into a modified bowling ball grip if you push to hard. Also, foil tends to form wrinkles and I would worry about getting the ass hair pinched and pulled...yeow!

The otherthing about Reynolds wrap, its going to be, as Rabb phrased it once, like trying to rub peanut butter out of a shag carpet.

I'd have to say, if I had a unlimited supply, I'd go with the cellophane, having myself flean might require more product, but at least I would be able to sit down afterwards.

If I had a limit on how much I could use, I'd have to go with a Sandpaper witha higher grit count, at least you could cut it into strips and move slowly to cut down on chaffing.

My Weekend In Silent Hill

So Gamefly.com delivered for once in quick fashion and dropped me off some goodness on Friday afternoon. Silent Hill: Homecoming.

Now I haven't played a game of silent hill except for the very first one on the PS1 back when it was just the Playstation and then I played Silent Hill: The Room for the original Xbox (which I was really not thrilled with and only played for maybe a hour before I got tired of it)

Anyways, I have to say I really liked SH:H. It had a nice creepy slow paced vibe to it that I really enjoyed. The omnipresent fog/ashe is present but looks so much more murky than any of its earlier brethren.

SH:H places you in the role of a character Alex Shepard, just back from the war after spending some time apparently in the hospital from being wounded in "battle", From there you start off chasing after your little brother Joshua, in the typical survival horror staple if player one is looking for his sibling/spouse ect, no real ground breaking pplot advancment in this game to start off with. Without spoilling any of the plot developments, there are a few (1 or 2) plot twists that hit right in the last few scenes of the game.

Anyways, back to the meat of the matter, the game itself.

Pluses: Great sound effects, good ambient music sets the tone. Visuals are what you would really come to expect at this point from a game for the 360, no real breakthroughs in special effects like in Condemned 2, but they still look good. It gives you a real gritty, dirty, something is messed up look. The puzzles are nothing to scoff at, there are only a few of them in the whole game, but I have to admit, they really took me a while since I had no idea what in the hell I was doing with them, but you can get them through trial and error and just sticking with them. The boss battles are deceptive, the very first boss is a pushover, I had it beaten pretty quick, the second boss was a damage sponge though, it took forever to defeat her and ALOT of attempts. The bosses seemed to go in waves, hard, easier, harder, easier, blah blah blah.

Negatives: There are only maybe 6 different types of enemies and once you get the hang of them, they aren't all that hard to beat, I think I took out most of them with nothing but the knife and the dagger, saving up ammunition until the boss fights. The BIG ONE, the camera angle....not being able to invert it made the game take alot longer than it should have. But you can invert the aim for your weapons....the guns and what not can be aimed like normal, which saved some of it for me. The game is also fairly short, even with the camera throwing me into seasickenss on occasion, I managed to get it done in just under 8 hours or so.

All in all, it was a pretty good game. I really enjoyed it for what it was. a rental, I would't suggest buying it, its definately a gamefly or rental purchase.

On a creepy scale, I would give it, 4 out of 5 Hack's mothers.
