MW3, Uncharted 3, and Skyrim reviews

Modern Warfare 3: I have always loved the series for its great storyline and Michael Bay-esc set pieces. MW3 is no different. A great ending to a great trilogy. MW4 needs to be completely new though. New engine, storyline, etc. Co-op is also once again really fun and a great addition to the game. I really liked the Spec-Ops idea from MW2 and I’m really glad the developers decided not to throw it away. They have brought it back and even better than ever with the addition of “Survival” mode. Lots of fun to be had there. Lastly, the multiplayer. I honestly don’t have much to say about it. It’s Call of Duty. It’s multiplayer. You know what to expect. It’s good but can also be frustrating at times. Honestly, I’m starting to get tired of it.

Uncharted 3: I have only played a little bit of multiplayer and none of the co-op yet. The campaign however, I played straight through. And the reason I played it without stopping? Because I didn’t want to stop. The campaign is simply fantastic. It is just as good, if not better, than Uncharted 2. In fact, I would pay $60 alone JUST for the campaign. It’s that good. Most people I know don’t own a playstation 3, but if you do, this is a game that should NOT be missed. Naughty Dog has also completely overhauled the multiplayer and making it feel as though the are actually playing the single player campaign. Co-Op should be good to. Just when you think the developers couldn’t top themselves from the second game, they make the third one a fantastic outing to the franchise.

Skyrim: THIS GAME. THIS is the game of all games. Well….maybe I’m stretching that a bit. But still, I could easily spend over 100 hours playing this game. Personally, I tried so many times to play and enjoy the fourth game, but I could never really get into it. This game however, is a LOT better. I didn’t think I would even like this game at first. But after about the first hour or so, I realized that this game could potentially destroy my social life. The world is massive, infinite quests to do, dungeons to explore, and most importantly, Dragons to slay. I would highly recommend that everyone give this game a fair chance. There are a ton of ways to play the game, and no two people will play it the same way. Do yourself a favor, and play this game.

(Music #1 and rain and thunder begin playing) (Camera fades into room 1 (pic 1) to show Daniel lying on the ground) (What, what is this place” - Daniel ramblings) He sits up and touches his forehead with two fingers to notice its bleeding. (Daniel gasps of him cringing) He slowly gets up, stumbling. He looks to his left to notice that his left arm is swollen and bleeding. (Daniel slow breath) He slowly gets back up and walks down to the end of the room, where a table with a candle is lit, a lantern is placed, and a note lay. Daniel picks up and reads the note in his head (note 1) Daniel puts the note back down on the table, looks to his right, and notices a door. He looks down once more to notice he is wearing his rosary, and lifts it up in his palm. He grasps it firmly. (“I have to get out of here” - Daniel ramblings) He looks back at the door and, approaching it slowly, begins to open the door as it creaks. (Door noises) (Music 2 plays) He “leans” as he looks left and right to see if the coast is clear. He begins to walk right and beings to open the next door (door noises) when suddenly, he breaks down. He stumbles back down to the ground as noises fill his head. (Image flash, whispers, ear ringing 1, ear ringing 2, dog squeal, baby cry, ambience guardian) (He stays with his hands and knees on the ground for bit as the sounds in his head die out, then slowly proceeds his way to get back up. He notices windows to his right and then to his left. He walks to the left set of windows and looks outside at the black darkness. (Sounds of rain and thunder) (“Its cold, it’s so cold” - Daniels ramblings) He looks back to his right and continues on. He approaches a 3 way hallway and proceeds to walk to the hallway with a lit staircase, and notices a dragon statue. (May change) He picks it up, pulls it closer to his face and examines it, when suddenly; he hears the scream of a girl. (Scared reaction from Daniel and gasp of breath) He pulls out his lit lantern (lantern noise) and proceeds into the darkness where he heard the scream. He drops the dragon and quickly turns on his lantern. He begins to walk down the hallway. (Slow breathing) He gets to a doorway and opens it slowly. (Door creak, “is anyone there” - Daniels ramblings) Another scream right after he says that. (Scream 6 and 10) He quickly turns around and continues down the hallway, breathing even faster. (Daniel fast breath) He notices a door on his left and begins to open it, but suddenly he slams the door shut because he hears the girl again. (Girl screams 1 and Daniel reaction, door opening and slamming) He shuts off his lantern. (“help her find a way” - Daniels ramblings, sanity 3) He begins to slowly open the door and pears left and right inside. For a moment, all is quiet. Suddenly Daniel is startled by the sound of a whale-like creature, and the girls screams one last time before the creature cuts her and breaks her bones. (Brute whimper, girls scream 6 and 10, grunt attacks, bones cracking) Daniel is so frightened by the sound and begins to run in fear. (Music #6, lantern noise,) Daniel runs back down the hallway and makes a right towards the staircase, stepping into the light. He stops for a moment to catch his breath. (Daniel fast breath, music #3, rain and thunder, “the darkness closing in” “something’s wrong oh so wrong” - Daniels ramblings) He regains his sanity and begins to make his way down the staircase. As he goes down he can hear a baby cry. (baby cry, ambiance, “getting closer somehow” - Daniels ramblings”) He finds a door only to see that it is locked. (Rain and thunder, ambiance, “the darkness closing in” - Daniels ramblings) Daniel pounds the door with both his hands and leans his head on it. (“This shouldn’t be” - Daniels ramblings, rain and thunder, ambiance) He turns around and begins to walk slowly down the other hallway. He pulls out his lantern again. (Lantern noise) And suddenly begins to hear footsteps above him. (Muffled steps) His head follows the footsteps as the sound travels right over him. (“Someone’s coming” - Daniels ramblings) Daniel puts away his lantern and remains completely frozen, all is silent. He slowly turns back around and begins to walk again, seeing a candle lit, and a door swings open as though it had been blown by the wind itself, thus blowing out the candle. (First door audio plus Daniel breath, slow breath, ambiance wind) Daniel quickly pulls out his lantern again and “leans” into the room. He sees nothing. He closes the door (door opening and slamming) and continues on. Daniel approaches a staircase and peers down into the darkness. (“the darkness closing in” - Daniels ramblings) He begins to make his way down the staircase. On the way down, he hears another sound. The sound of a squealing dog. (Dog squeal, ambiance) He makes his way down to the door and begins to open it. (Door noises) He walks into the cold darkness that filled the room. He made sure to shut the door behind him, quietly. (“the shadow its close now” - Daniels ramblings, sanity 5, footsteps) Upon entering the room, walking into the unknown, he begins to hear what sounds to be a man being tortured by a saw. At first, it is slow. But as Daniel trails further into the darkness, the sawing gets louder and faster. Daniel is nearly to the back of the room, the sound of the man choking over his own blood and the sound of the saw couldn’t be any louder. Daniel’s heart and breath racing, he stumbles onto the ground again. He finds the strength to pull himself up to the table and grabs the key. The moment he grabs the key, the sound finally goes away. Daniel breathes at a slower pace, his heart rate returns to normal, and he regains his sanity. He could feel the power of the key, and it felt like a way out. He puts it in his pocket and makes his way back to the door. As he is just a few feet from the door, a horrible noise begins to shake the entire building, as though something had just been awoken. (Guardian activated) He freezes for a moment, standing there with the lantern in his hand. Thinking nothing of it, Daniel walks even slower towards the door. He almost touches the handle, until he then hears the sound of another monster, only not as deep of a sound. (Grunt spawn) He breathes slowly and has no choice but to open the door. SLAM! (Monster surprise, event coming, music 4) The shadow was there. That thing was on the other side of the door and it was begging to break in. Daniel was trapped. He had no weapons, or any way to get around the monster. He could only hide in the darkness, hoping the monster could not smell fear. Daniel quickly blends in with the darkness. The monster broke the door down, and began to search for him. Daniel remained as still and as quiet as possible. The monster had walked past Daniel. This was his chance. He had to quietly get back to the door. Daniel began to creep closer and closer, not even looking back at the monster. He quietly opened, went through, and closed the door. Looking at door, he slowly back away until he was about 3 feet from the door. Then suddenly, (RAWR, music 7) Daniel turns around and can do nothing but run. He runs back to the front door and struggles to unlock the door with the key. He just barely unlocks it in time. Daniel runs outside into more darkness, away from the monster hoping it did not follow him outside. He quickly stops to catch his breath, and turns around to look back at the church. All is quiet and at peace. At last. He turns back around, and the monster lets out a scream, and then kills Daniel where he stands. (Cuts to black before he is struck)

Hello! And Welcome.

It has been many many months since I have last posted on this blog. If you know us, you have been watching our YouTube channels ever since, so you know what’s up. If you HAVEN’T been watching our YouTube videos, shame on you. *wags finger* ALSO I would like to point out that all 5 parts of the 2011 Florida Summer Vacation can be watched here!

Well it’s a brand new school year and that means a brand new year of videos for school. Which also means I will be as equally busy. Below, you will find just some of the many videos we uploaded since the “My Online Life” video. The first of which is our first school assignment. Hope you all like it! Please subscribe.

My Online Life

Nilloc2468 — Tue, 28 Jun 2011 23:51:37 +0000

At long last the documentary is finally complete. And although I did have some clips missing, I am very excited to finally get this video out there. This documentary is some of my best work and I really hope you all like it. Once again, big thanks to Carson for helping out with this and being apart of my videos for the past 4 years. Be sure to watch to the very end of the video! This is also a school project that was assigned back in March. I did complete on time but I didn’t like it. So I scrapped that version and re-did the whole thing. During this process of remaking the documentary I realized that I would not be able to complete it in school (which at the time was the only place I could work on it, during school hours only) and because of 2 other projects that were shortly assigned to us afterwards. By the time those 2 projects were finished there was only a few days of school left. I spent each of those days moving as many files, video, and music as I possibly could before school officially ended. At last, after many months of waiting, the video is finally the way I like it. I hope you all enjoy. Watch this video in all of it 1080p full screen glory! If your computer can handle the amount of awesomeness that is. Maybe with headphones too? If you are unsure, do it anyway. You may want to pause the video and run away from your computer and hide in a small corner as your computer attempts to load the video. Check out the links below please!

We have a Portal Crysis 22!

Nilloc2468 — Sun, 24 Apr 2011 22:29:29 +0000

Over this past weekend I have played both Crysis 2 and Portal 2 extensively. I decided I wanted to write a little review of my own for these games. (Spoiler-free of course) Here you go.

Portal 2 - I originally played the first Portal back when it was first packaged with “The Orange Box” in 2007. I played through the game multiple times and even bought Portal: Still Alive for XBLA. I also played that multiple times. Portal created one of the greatest cultural phenomenon’s of our time and I never would have thought how using 2 portals could make up for one of the greatest puzzles games of all time. Many complained of the short length of the first game but Valve made it simply to see how well it would do. About a week later everyone is talking about Companion Cubes, Cakes, and being “Still Alive”. For Portal 2, Valve has promised a longer and much more drawn out game. And Valve has very much delivered on this promise. The writing is brilliant, the puzzles are the perfect difficulty, the length of the game isn’t too long but isn’t too short, and the co-op is equally fantastic. I absolutely loved every minute of Portal 2 and I think everybody needs to play it. Valve is like the Pixar of the video game industry. They don’t release their work as often as others, but when they do, they never seem to disappoint.

Crysis 2 - When the first Crysis came out, it was know as one of the, if not, THE most difficult game to run on any computer. The most experience I have with Crysis was when I went to my uncle’s house and played it on his super computer for maybe an hour or two. And to be honest, I really liked it. I loved how you could change the different “modes” of the suit to choose how you wanted to play the game. Now Crysis 2 is out and it’s coming to consoles. Many felt that the console versions however wouldn’t look or play as good as it would on a PC. I can safely say that Crysis 2 is easily one of the best looking games on a console AND equally match that of the PC. Now I only played the Xbox version (without a doubt the best looking game on Xbox to date) but the PS3 version is pretty much the exact same. In Crysis 2 you can also once again choose how you want to play the game. If you want to go in like a one man army powerhouse, you would use the armor mode. If you wanted to be sneakier than a dog standing on it’s hind legs to steal your leftover food, you can use the stealth mode. You can also customize your weapons and armor abilities (or “perks” really) on the fly. The campaign is lengthy and very good. In fact, it’s almost the reason alone to spend the $60 purchase for this game. There is multiplayer but I didn’t play much of it mainly cause it’s exactly like Call of Duty’s multiplayer. That doesn’t mean the multiplayer is bad but it simply means it offers nothing new in terms of gameplay.

Both games are fantastic in their own way and all should for sure give them a try. Now you know what I did over the weekend. It was a ton of fun. Happy Easter everyone.

A not so incredible update.

Hey. Thought I would take this time to say a few things. So I’ll keep it brief.

The school year is about a month away from being over. And if all goes according to plan, I will officially be halfway through High School. I have never been as busy in school as I was this year and I feel I have accomplished much. To this, I am proud of myself. This is mainly the reason why I haven’t been able to upload much lately. However, there are several projects in the works that should make up for this. First off, for the past month (might be exaggerating that a bit) I have been working on a documentary. This documentary is mostly about my life (though I tried my best not to make it seem like that) and Youtube and stuff. I don’t know how to explain it but I know it’s some of my best work yet. The reason it’s taking so long to finish is because…well, I can only work on the video in the classroom. I only get about 2 1/2 hours every other weekday to work on any project. And just within the past week we have been assigned to do yet another project to work on. So we need to focus on that first.

So if I’m ever going to finish this video I need Final Cut Pro. Well….looks like I’m in luck. We are supposed to be getting a new computer soon and I will be able to work on any project from that soon. I’m excited. Also I recently started a new little series over Fallout: New Vegas. It’s basically my first playthrough of the game while I’m commentating. It’s Good fun. I will be doing other games soon but for now it’s good practice. So hopefully when I get the new computer I will be able to do a lot more videos in a much quicker manner.

So anyways that’s it really. I am currently playing several games this week. Crysis 2, Portal 2, etc. Finishing up on what’s left of school. State tests are next week. Still learning every day. All is good.

3 new projects uploaded + Update!
