LOL! If only I had that kind of money to spare. XD Blame it on my paycheck sucking, 7-year 'boyfriend' I call my car payment.

I can't wait for Far Harbor... I'm running out of things to do in Fallout 4. I started to fortify my settlements, seeing as one of them had about 16 settlers sharing two sleeping bags. They're happy now since I built them a house, a garden (for food), some shops and a clinic.

I'll probably stream on Friday at some point.

Well for me it has been a rough weekend and a rougher start to the week! I am a man wondering through a city of plagues (Everyone is continuously ill and i am the only one to help out)

Had to start over with Gears of War because my save game just decided to stop working. But its still fun to play again! So i played a little more on Saturday night. (Like a whole 10 minutes!!! Ooooohhh!!!)

Well, I'm still going to continue playing GTA IV but maybe just the action side mission I can get through the cops computer but the other stuff I don't know yet. I'm not sure if I wanna ride through Liberty City hunting 200 birds.

In the meantime I bought another game at a fleamarket called Turning Point: Fall Of Liberty. Churchill has been killed in 1931 and thus the allies are missing an important key player in the war. As a result the Nazis win the war by conquering London and invading the East Coast of America. The story is set in London, New York and Washington D.C. ran over by the Nazis. I don't know if the game is good though but it seems to be a challenge since there are no health packs or body armors to be found in the game. It is war after all. The concept is interesting enough though for me. Another what if situation in matters of WWII.

Had a chance to play more L.A. Noire over the weekend and Gears of War. I'm not sure if anyone recalls the old gaming books of the 80's titled Fighting Fantasy? It was Steve Jackson & Ian Livingstone's take on Dungeons and Dragons. They were actually reviewers of D&D which is what prompted them to make the gaming book series of choosing your own adventure. These books were hugely popular around the 80's.

They have recently ported these onto IOS & Android and i decided to get one of the books. It is a great read for the fun factor where you can fight monsters by the role of a dice (Digital one in my case) and decide which path to choose. Most were based in a fantasy world however they did do a few that were based on other genre's like sci-fi and horror. I decided to purchase one called the House of Horrors which i vaguely recall coming out but never actually read.

There are a few of these titles available digitally and can be fun if you are into that sort of thing.

I started in Turning Point: Fall Of Liberty. I think it was interesting to see the Germans attack New York in broad daylight. The game reminds me a bit of Resistance: Fall of Man. It doesn't want to be more than it is. It's just plain and simple and easy to enjoy.

I believe Gears of War 4 comes out on.... October? I think? I'm not sure if I'm gonna get it through since I'm getting Resident Evil 4 for the Xbox One. I miss that game soooo much. I think it's my most played game... and I dunno why, it just never gets old. Over three different consoles, I've played it about... 15 times, give or take.

Anyway, FAR HARBOR!!! I've been playing it a LOT. It's so much fun and there's so much to do! I did a 4-hour stream of it on Saturday, which I actually talked this time... well, sorta. I can't play and talk at the same time, for some odd reason.

So far the toughest enemy I've found in the ENTIRE game is Shipbreaker... I've fought it about five times and lost every time. I'm guessing I need to adjust my approach to the fight. XD See the critter holding up my game! >:(

That looks FREAKY!

Well i got my GTA 5 in the post yesterday. This time it installed! Yay!!!!

Managed to play a few minutes of it. Sheesh! It's a violent game!

But it does look good. Will definitely try to make some time over this crazy weekend!

I've reached a difficult point in Fall of Liberty. I'm supposed to sneak on a Zeppelin via the London bridge but I'm low on bullets. The big zeppelin is protected by two other smaller ones and one topside of the bridge is full of Germans with better guns than mine. I have a MP50 and shotgun. One of the biggest problems is that 2 guys appear from the place I came from behind me when I'm almost through and that's when I run out of bullets.

And finished it. Rather short game, if you ask me. Also a noticeable name on the end credits. Kai Wulff did some voice work in the game. He also did one for Medal of Honor Allied Assault.

Nice going MacGyverGod!

Thanks. I didn't mind more levels though. It was just New York, Washington and London. The game itself didn't fare well. It got mostly negative reviews but the creators defended themselves by saying the game was meant for casual audiences and not the hardcore gamers.

Now I'm playing the original Tomb Raider on the PS1. So great to play that game again.

Cool! Got Tomb Raider 1 & 2 on my iPhone. Was hoping for Tomb Raider 3 but rumour has it that they dont have the source codes.

Apparently all the games with exception of Angel of Darkness are all available on PS3 throught the PS Store.

Oh okay. I've said it before but i have always enjoyed the original 3 games. 4th was okay but i didn't like how the story unfolded in Chronicles. It contradicted everything in Last Revelation.

Nathan McCree was the original composer of Tomb Raider 1-3. I tweeted him last year to thank & complement him on his work. He responded with a thanks and to let me know to keep my eyes open for a future project he was working on. He didn't specify what it was though.

I never really got to Last Revelation. I nearly finished Tomb Raider III years ago and I could've still proceeded from there. Only five levels or so more to go but I found out that I really have to learn to find my way again around the levels in the first game. This is just another attempt in finishing them all. But this time I will. I counted the levels of all the games through Stella's site. I came up with 490 levels. They might even pass the 500 mark. Anyway for the games I have: Tomb Raider I through Chronicles, Legend, Anniversary, Underworld and TR2013, I came up with exactly 200 levels. Anyway I hope I can fly through the first two games. I pretty much knew them inside out but like I said I really have to learn to find my way again too. I never finished TR III and I never got where I was without the walkthroughs.

As far as Chronicles is concerned, I knew the game existed out of flashbacks from old adventures while everyone thinks Lara has died but never played it. They say Angel of Darkness was the worst. They tried to finish the game way too fast, there were a lot of problems with the gameplay and the adjustments were not done properly. Even though planned as a new trilogy it never got completed.

Yup. Angel of Darkness was pretty bad.

Chronicles plays out like the other games and it is a fun game to play, make no mistake. Even some characters from the first 3 games make a comeback. BUT. Big but. The Werner Von Croy storyline of Chronicles contradicts Last Revelation.

In Last Revelation he is hellbent of killing her. Then upon suspicion of her death, he goes out of his way to save her?! Huh?

There was something contradictory indeed what Von Croy was concerned. I guess I'll find out in the end. Didn't he die in Angel of Darkness? I just finished St. Francis' Folly and I gotta admit, I'm actually having a good time with this game and I do mean a good time. This is definitely not a run of the mill game. Still no walkthrough needed.

Yes he does.

I believe you. Tomb Raider in my honest opinion is one of the greatest games ever made. 1-3. Even 4. Maybe.

I guess I'll have to watch Angel of Darkness on YouTube. In the meantime I'm writing down all my stats in a file. Not that it matters though but it just seemed like fun.

I was feeling all nostalgic and recalled the old classic Blood from Monolith Entertainment. Similar to Doom & Quake although more gory and a little darker, has you controlling a character named Caleb fighting through hordes of zombies and an occult group. Used to play it for hours back in the day. Came out in 1997 and was followed by the sequel The Chosen - Blood II.



There is a Doom port that exists that can mod your game to look like Blood. But I dont think you can get it for mobile devices at the moment. It was available back in the early 2000's.

Blood and it's sequel are only available on GOG & Steam.

Finished Tomb Raider and have already started on Tomb Raider II.

Wow! You are quite the player. Well, I mean that in the gaming world of course!

When i last played Tomb Raider II on my smartphone, i got to Venice but haven't finished it yet.

Just another attempt in something I have been trying for years. Finishing all Tomb Raider games at once. I never did it before. I could've continued Tomb Raider III where I left off years ago. But in the meantime, five games has joined the collection. Chronicles, Legend, Anniversary, Underworld and TR2013. I just started all over because it was such a long long time ago since I played it. Now in Tomb Raider II I'm in Bartolli's Hideout. I'm only in level 3 but I'm starting to remember how frustrating this one could be. Even though there is a lot more gunfights in it, you can only take a few bullets and your gone and healthpacks are low so far. The one advantage you do have is you can save anywhere you want and you need it. Yesterday I was at one point near the end of the level and even though my healthbar was black I was alive, killed one guy to get a detonator key but on the way you have to go through an automatically opening door but there's one guy behind it and all it took was one bullet to finish me off and I didn't had any healthpacks. And than you have no choice but to start all over. That's the frustration in this game but that's what they all have. No tips, no checkpoints, you have to figure it out yourself and be careful. This is old school.

Tomb Raider II was always my favorite in the series. I liked the added action and the story was cool too.

It's like they're using silencers on their guns going *pewpewpewpewpew*. And you lose a lot of health and they can shoot you while climbing up a ledge. But yeah I heard TR II was more appreciated and the most successful from the original games.

Well i had next to no time to play Blood last weekend but hopefully if all goes well, will be stepping into this game, so to speak this weekend!

I also downloaded Max Payne on my iPhone and look forward to trying it out. Never played Max Payne before. Seen it, but never played it.

So some of this...


And this!!!

I finished Far Harbor... omg, it was AWESOME!! Such an amazing DLC. I'm back to during the main story quests for Fallout 4. I've made a save file while everything is neutral, and will be doing both sides of the story line so I can get the achievements. The rumor mill is that another DLC is currently in the works, but we don't know what it's about or when we're going to get it. Soon, I hope.

I've never played Max Payne either... you'll have to let us know if it's any good.

Max Payne was a nice game back in the day. One of the first to add bullet time.

Meanwhile I'm in level 11 in Tomb Raider II. The game is definitely larger than the first one.
