Sorry guys, back from my hiatus!

So, I came up with a solution to recording...Don't. There are a few games I would still like to Lets play, so, I'll put those on my channel, but you'll have to find those for yourself. I did beat a few games (Or at played it on one) So, I'll go ahead and review them! We're doing three indie games this time as to make up for the hiatus, so, Whoooo!


First game?
This, my friend, is what I love in gaming. When the creators know how and love to joke around. Its a fun little quirky game that takes maybe an hour to complete both campaigns. Its really easy and fun, so its great for casual players. But there's a ton of crap to find, so its great for the completionist. Anyways, Lets get on to the actual review.

Playability(Ease of play):About a 7. While its really fun, even after beating the game its a bit too confusing in the order you need to do things. Either way, its really fun.

Difficulty?: What difficulty?  Its too easy. Literally, the hard part is just like, three jumps, then its just confusing. That's literally the only reason its hard in any sense of the term.

Graphics: Beautiful. Especially for a pixel game. Either way, I like it.

So, my total round up because I don't feel like putting much more? 68. I really liked it, but the fact that its just too confusing at times gets me. Sometimes what you need to do isn't clear, when it needs to be. Literally. Its too confusing at times.

NEXT GAME!
OH MY GOODNESS DON'T EVEN GET ME STARTED ON THIS GAME. ITS ALMOST TOO GOOD. ITS SO HARD THAT YOU GET FIVE SECONDS IN, AND YOU DIE. Thing is? That's the beauty of it. Its so hard, you just wanna play it so much, and win. You just want to win. Why? Gloating rights. Its like beating ghosts N' goblins. You were-No, ARE. the top kid around if you beat this crap.

Ease of play:  This game. Has two controls. Left. And. Right. can't get much more simple than this.

Difficulty:BULL. CRAP. THIS GAME. IS THE HARDEST CRAP I HAVE PLAYED IN MY LIFE. YOU ONLY HAVE LEFT AND RIGHT, RIGHT? WELL GUESS WHAT. THE WHOLE GAME IS CREATED JUST TO SCREW YOU OVER. I'VE ONLY PLAYED THE EASIEST MODE AND I CAN'T GET PAST 25 SECONDS.

Graphics:Not much to say here, its just, well, hexagons.

Music:This is. The best. This game. Has a really good sound track. Like. Really good.

Score:55. Its really, really fun. But its just a little bit too hard.

And now. The final game. This one, is my all time favorite. Why? Because. I've beaten the game 5 times over. And it never gets old. Now, if you've talked to me at all, you know what my favorite indie game is. What is it? Well, I'd tell you.. But well, there's
That's right. NO TIME TO EXPLAIN. Is a wonderful indie game. Its very funny, and aside from a few glitches(Which are getting fixed, too!) its really fun! I could talk about this one for days, but I wont as I don't want to bore you guys to death anymore than I already am. Onto the review!

Ease of play:The game eases you into play. And the controls are easy to learn if you play a lot of PC games.

Difficulty:Its not too hard until you get to the third boss. Then? The difficulty is raised about a million. Why is it so hard? It can actually kill you. Worst part? Due to a glitch, if you do this one part wrong, the boss gets stuck and you can't hurt him.

Graphics:Hilariously funny, and really straightforward. Its a really fun experience, especially one of the last few levels.

Music:I haven't actually payed attention to the music in this one, so I can't say much. But I bet like the game itself, its awesome.

Score:88. The game is really fun, but due to a few of the glitches(Like the one listed above) you have to deduct some points. But it pretty much makes up for it in how fun it is. It has a crap load of hats to find, so even the completionist will like it. Anyways, Its a great game.

Okay, I'm out for now. See you Wednesday! If I don't post then, or Friday, See you next Monday.

Okay, so, news.

So, when I should be doing a post today, I can't. Or well, I can't give you gameplay. For DMC 3, or the game I was recording instead. The recording software records too slow for DMC 3, and too fast for this other game, so, my voice is off synch. Solution? I have none yet. I'm working on it though. Just, bare with me for now. I'm sorry for the inconvenience. Guess I'll let you guys know what game we ARE playing though.

This game is called Chantelise, A tail of two sister's. I really like what I've played so far, its a bit of an odd mix of a third person hack in slash, with 2D characters and such. Its pretty good, and I really want some gameplay footage for this one.

Review: Devil May Cry Four

 So, before we begin, I'm sorry, but I meant to put out a blog post yesterday saying that instead of posting a review then, I'd do it today after I had beat it. Well. I beat it. I don't know the full list of games yet, but I'll post it when I can! Anyways, on to the review!


So, today's review is of a game. A good one too! Devil may cry four, to be exact.
                                           

This game was really fun. I have to say, its one of my favorite actually. I beat it in three days, of almost constant playing. Anyways, onto a synopsis.

The game starts with you on your way to a church, when demons appear. Your arm appears to be in a sling, so your character takes them down with one hand. But he still manages to do it with little to no effort. One thing I noticed quickly, was that the main character didn't appear to be Dante. My suspicions were confirmed when Dante crashed through the window, and shot the high "priest" of the order straight in the face. The tutorial is a bit odd, as it is you fighting Dante. The game is a little slow during the tutorial, but it speeds up right after it. During the tutorial, you find out that his arm wasn't in a sling for any reason other than to hide his arm, which appeared to be that of a demons.

I'm gonna end this here, as to not spoil too much for you, but I have to say, I loved the game. Now, to give it a rating, I'll be using your standard  1-10 for individual ratings, 1-100 for overall. 10 and 100 being the best.

Child friendliness: hahahaha...HAHAHAHA.... No. I give this a...Eh. 4. See, there is a very big amount of blood, there is a little cursing, and two of the characters are scantily clad. Though, one good thing is, I remember like, two curse words. Which all things considered in this day and age, that's pretty good. It'd be better with out it, but still.

Ease of play: Gonna give this one a solid 8. It has a good  tutorial, and if you choose you can play in automatic mode, which lets you hit one button to do powerful combo's.

Story:It has a pretty solid story, so I'll give it another solid 8.

Gameplay: While it gets repetitive, its still really fun. Also.  The last boss is a real pain in the butt. So. I give this a 7. Its still a REALLY good game. My only complain, is that your walk speed seems slow to me. Oh. Just know, the credit minigame thing is awesome.

There are several other categories I could throw it through, but I don't think I will, so, I'll go ahead and give you guys a overall score and a little treat that I'll give with every game I like.

Overall score:83. While it was a VERY fun and good game, there were a few things I didn't like. Like this one very annoying puzzle in a forest level, which always causes me to end up with a D speed rank. There's also the cheesy metal that plays during every fight. While I liked the cheesy metal, it got on my nerves when I was frustrated. Anyways. Gonna leave you guys with one of the bonus backgrounds from the game, and I'll leave you for now.


I'll give you guys a status up date and list later, see you!

Hello there!

Hello! So, this is where I discuss with you what we're doing here.

What we're doing, is I'll be posting Lets play's and such of the games I bought during the steam summer sale (2012-2013, so its a pretty long list), in an attempt to beat them all. Tonight we'll get our first post out, and its on the first game I've been playing. I'll also put out a list of games to play, and the order I will do them in. We will also review games once we've beaten them, and then give our opinion on the game. I can give you the first three games now though.


Our first game is a good one, but I wont have footage for us in time to do it, as I am already almost through it. But, I will tell you the first game. Devil May Cry 4. Now. When I say Devil May Cry, you will probably think of DMC:Devil May Cry. Don't. Its a terrible game, and they killed the franchise with it. I'll go ahead and give you a list of what we're playing from off the top of my head.

Devil May Cry 4.
Devil May Cry 3:(Special edition.)
Devil May Cry 4*
Deus Ex Game Of The Year Edition.
Deus Ex: The invisible war.
Deus Ex: Human Revolution.
Deus Ex: Human Revolution:The missing link.

Before I continue, *'s mean revisit's. As I want to give footage for 4, I'll record my Demon Hunter difficulty play through.
And that's what I can say for now. Tonight I'll give you a better list, but for now, more information.

Now, I know that the blog will die when I run out of games. Solution? Turn it into a game review and Lets Play blog after I run out of SSS games. I'll now give you the schedule, before and after I run out of games.

Before:
Let's play Mondays and Wednesdays, recap Fridays and when a game is finished, Saturday Reviews.0

After:

Mod Monday, where I will review and show off mod's from different games, minecraft will be a star of that with how many mods there are. I'll try to keep them short, about 8-14 minutes long.

Let's play Wednesday, which is self explanatory.

And review Friday. Where I review games I own, good and bad.

Anyways, I'll make an update tonight around 8 Central PM. See you then!
