After another major frustrating part I grabbed the cheatcodes page went for unlimited ammo and grenaded the living hell out them Nazis. Actually it was quite hilarious to hear them scream: 'Granate!' all the time or 'Amerikanner!' Just as it was in the original games. I think in Pacific Assault: 'Grenaaaaade! Take cover!'
Now I just also bought Call of Duty World At War. I think MoH Airborne, Call of Duty World at War and Wolfenstein are your best shots.

And started with Call of Duty: World At War. An interesting take on the game since you can play for all the major armies of the war. I'm only in the second campaign yet but I already played as an American soldier and now I'm a Russian soldier. Already met a frustrating part though. Maybe I'm just a sore loser at this time. Anyway, what I really caught my attention was that the character Roebuck was voiced by Kiefer Sutherland. I knew I recognised that raw raspy voice. I am curious though how the rest of the game goes.

As far as WWII games go, I've only played World at War.
I take that back, I have played BloodRayne, but I think you can get that on regular Xbox. Even though the enemies are Nazis, I'm not sure if it really counts.
What I love about World at War is that it was the start of the Zombies mini-game, which is now a trend for Black Ops. It's pretty much the only reason I still play Call of Duty, actually.
The latest map pack for Black Ops 3 came out a couple of days ago, so my friends and I have been playing that. It's been fun! I do believe that the zombies back story and game play has gotten REALLY convoluted though.

I'm going to finish the main game first before I take down them zombies. But I noticed though when consoles started to take over WWII games sort of died out. It's pretty much been there done that. MoH has the European and Pacific theatres as well as Call of Duty. But there mostly for PC. Wolfenstein made it pretty much through but that in the end turns out to be sci-fi. However, I played Wolfenstein before for PS3 and I didn't care it was zombies and monsters. It was still the 40's. Still I can't wait for Rockstar Games to make a WWII game.

Ironically, the whole Nazi & zombie combination started off in Wolfenstein. From there, it spread like a virus.
I never had any chance to play anything this weekend despite my ambitions. Had to help my brother in law move house, and it was a NIGHTMARE weekend filled with a million other things to do.
I hope to have some time this week or this coming weekend to try out some of the new games. I did have 10 minutes however to test Fallout New Vegas which looks really good and install Metal Gear Solid V which looks superb! Jedi, I recommend you get your hands on it as it is a direct sequel to MGS 3 Snake Eater.

In the meantime I finished the game already in only four days. I never finished anything that fast. Campaigns were a lot shorter maybe even a little easier than Airborne but I got to say dying by grenades is pretty crappy. Died by a lot of grenades on the same place, over and over again. The difference is this grenade indicator doesn't turn red as it does in Airborne. As long it is white it can explode without getting hurt in CoD it doesn't work like that. The chance of a slower screen and that squeaking sound you hear are a lot smaller than Airborne. It was about the only frustrating part in the game. Other than that I had more intense experience, especially with Russian gameplay. That was really in the middle of everything. I played with tanks and was a gunner in plane. And above all there was the Battle of Berlin. Attacking the Reichstag outside and inside. The graphics and the Reichstag were great and very accurate. At least it gave some impression of what was maybe the most important battle in history of mankind.
The Nazi-zombie thing was just a minor extra in the game. I can only play one level, the other levels you got to downoad them or something but I get the picture. You start in a destroyed building and need to earn as much points you can in order to open doors or to go upstairs or to buy weapons and keep going as long as possible. My best score right now were three rounds and 22 kills. But I think in the end you just have to die.

It's actually much more than that... the first map is just a warm-up. There's actual lore and characters in the newer maps... and a LOT of dark humor. Der Riese is one of my favorite maps. For that one and Shi No Numa, we learned to put mines on the floor in areas we could back into if we got overwhelmed. We called it the "fortress of solitude". We had designates areas for this. The new maps also have "perk-a-colas" and hell hounds.
I've spent many late nights playing that game.... Oh, and then there's the Wunderwaffe DG-2 weapon, which is such an awesome weapon... With a party of four, we've lasted dozens of rounds.
I actually really liked New Vegas. The deathclaws are REALLY hard to kill though in that game, but it's so much fun!

Yes, absolutely.
It was one of the best games I played. If you're into that Noire/gangster stuff and like to see to L.A. of the 1940's. You really should. It plays like Red Dead Redemption. You have the main storyline but you can also play little sidequests, just listen to the dispatch while cruising through the town. I have been listening to the soundtrack recently. You won't regret it.
OT: Now I'm playing Unreal Tournament 3. I had the PC-game like ten years ago and I was hooked. And Unreal Tournament 3 follows the previous setting and lot's is the same. The main menu music for starters, the guns (slightly altered designs though and the pulse gun became the link gun and no Ripper so far). The PC-game had more variations in battle though. There was deathmatch, team deathmatch, last man standing, capture the flag, domination and I'm probably missing one. In this game though there for as far as I am are only three kinds of battle: team deathmatch, capture the flag and warfare. Which is to me new and the most difficult kind. You're on a battlefield and you have to capture nodes for you team. Once you have the majority you can kill the power core of the other team and win the match. There are also several vehicles, like tanks (goliath), power up cars, orbs with tentacles like in Edge of Tomorrow, dark walkers that sort of look like the tripods in War of the Worlds and hoverboards and many more. The game is good and as addicting as the previous installment. I played Morpheus and the Lavagiant for hours setting the amounts of frags or flag capturing at 999 hiding with a sniper killing them all over and over again. I was surprised thought that I at least saw one level in both games Hydro something it was called in capture the flag. You have like two caves and you have to run across above a goopit with bridges and bunkers to get the flag. It appeared in both games. Great game nonetheless.

In the meantime I finished UT3.

Good for you!
So I decided to pick up L.A. Noire. But by the time I got home, I had to take my son to the doctor (Again!!!) because I don't think they properly diagnosed him on Sunday and he is looking miserably ill. I'll probably only get around to playing the game maybe tomorrow if im lucky. Nut ill let you know!
I see that they have considered doing a sequel for the game. But nothing has surfaced as yet.

I had like 5 minutes to play L.A. Noire last night and it was pretty cool! Love the open world feel to it. Took me a minute to figure out I had to follow that arrow while I was driving. Ended up driving to the end of the city and smashing almost every car I laid my eyes on. Will definitely be playing it this weekend!

Game wise, I'll be busy for a while... lol Fallout 4 is releasing DLC content every month for the next three months, including a HUGE one in May.
In the Fall, Resident Evil 4 is getting ported to the One, so I HAVE to get that.
Shortly after that, Mass Effect Andromeda is getting released sometime in early 2017, maybe as soon as January! I'm so excited about that I can't see straight!
Until then, the first Fallout 4 DLC is coming out next Tuesday! Woohoo!!

When I have time, I love playing sims. But the old version 2. I spend more time building my sims family house than actual gameplay. (I must have a hidden wish to be an architect)

My Mom loved building and decorating in Sims. She spent HOURS doing that. XD I've played Sims, Sims2 and now I have Sims4 on my laptop, which I haven't touched in a while... I need to spend some time on that...

Well, let's just say that was the night indeed. Since then, haven't had any time to play anything!
But I managed to get my promotion. And I'm up to that. My last mission was the interrogation. That took a few tries but the irony is that I almost had it the first time. I just chose a silly question after a while which messed the whole thing up and got me exploring all other questioning routes I shouldn't have taken.
But I'm enjoying it!

At some point I started to get the hang of it and halfway the game I lost it again asking always the wrong questions. Sometimes it's obvious they're lying, others are harder to read. I have to admit I was wrong the first time out too with the woman, the first one you have to interrogate. I just pushed a button and I sorta insulted her. During the game I thought more than once that I would be such a bad cop. Just as I had with CoD and MoH that I would be such a bad soldier.
Anyway I planned another go with L.A. Noire because I think it's worth, perhaps in few months or years and than I'm going to play with the right answers close by just to see what it gives than.

I was a little confused the first time I had to question the lady from the department store. But my last meet with her she slipped up by saying something like, "So wil I still get my...uh...never mind" and that just irritating me because she never brought it up again and my character never asked again!!! Grrr!

Okay! So i managed to get some more play time last night and on my first case as a detective, managed to stop the masked man with the hat (No, not the Shadow)
It was a short 40 minutes of playing but i intend on finishing more on the weekend.
I see they are also offering the Back to the Future game for download. Thinking of getting it and playing it again. Have it on iPad but i'd prefer to play it on console.

I just got the new Fallout 4 DLC, Automatron. So far, it's been fun. I stream some of the gameplay, but kept getting distracted. lol More tomorrow!
I'll be doing a bit more PC gaming though... my friend, who just left, combined our Steam accounts after checking the hardware on my laptop to make sure it can handle it. Now I have Deadpool, which I'm giving a try here before going to bed.
I booted Sims 4 back up, as it has some new features. I'm gonna attempt to get back to building the MacGyver houseboat... maybe this weekend.

Looking forward to seeing that houseboat! Would love to get the old Deadpool game for Xbox. I didn't even know they made it! After seeing the movie, i would like to kick some bad guy butt!
I managed to play a little more of L.A. Noire. Really enjoyed it! Even the missus was there really intrigued and ended up assisting me in playing the missions (At least, advising where i should go etc). I now solved the case of Adrian Black in the episode, The Driver's Seat. Must say, i didn't see that coming!!!

I've been playing Sims 4 a bit, redid my MacGyver sim and worked on his skill sets. I'll have to do a video soon. I got some add-ons that will help with design, but still no spiral staircase. I'm currently working on the upstairs. The downstairs needs to be redone a little bit, but nothing too major.
My friend and I have been playing Diablo 3 and Star Wars: The Old Republic a LOT, which is why you guys haven't seen me around much. lol

With Junior being ill for the last 3 weeks (He's better but the medication keeps him up at night), I haven't even had time to watch TV let alone play a game.
But I'll get to it eventually.
Regarding mobile games, I did recently download Radiation Island which looks and plays like Fallout meets Minecraft.
Very cool game!
