Game no: 8
Genre: Fighting
Platform: Wii
Developer: Eighting

Publisher: Capcom

Game: Tatsunoko Vs Capcom Ultimate All-Stars

First 3 Hours: Awesome game where you can fight Ryu vs G-Force dude at the same time. There is even a big giant lighter guy. Very slow but packs a punch. The tagging system needs work. The gameplay is very fast paced
What I Liked: Rosters, Super moves,
What I Didn't Liked: Tagging System, No Replay Value (unless multiplayer)
Status: Played in now and then but since it doesn't have a coherent storyline. There is nothing more to do

Platform: DS
Developer: Level-5
Publisher: Nintendo
Game: Professor Layton and the Unwound Future
Platform: DS
Genre: Puzzle
First 3 Hours: I've played the first and second game of the series so I was expecting nothing new for the series. This series deliver in the point and click fashion. The puzzle range from the easy to the insanely difficult. Good thing  I have a lot of coins to skip them.

Status: Finished the game with both rooms fully filled with items
Score: 5/5 Laytons Hat

Developer: High Moon Studios

Publisher: Activision

Game: Transformers War For Cybertron
Platform: PC

First 3 hours: This is the first good Transformers game ever... I didn't have high expectation when starting this game. But boy I was wrong. We can't pick our factions but I'm glad they structure the storyline that way.
What I Liked: Racing scenes, Optimus Prime, Flying Segments
What I Didn't Liked: Endless Shooting, Some Transformers are just boring
Status: Fought Omega Supreme and Trypticon... Awesome expeince.
Score: 5/5 Autobots 

New Super Mario Bros Wii


 




Game no: 5
Genre: Platformer
Platform: Wii
Developer: Nintendo

Publisher: Nintendo 

Game : New Super Mario Bros Wii
Platform : Wii
Genre : Platformer
First 3 hours : This game is awesome. But you need to play it with a friend. You can play it alone but it gets super hard after the first 3 worlds. Love the new mushroom powers.
What I liked : Platforming, Teamwork, Stages
What I didn't liked : 4 wiimotes for ultimate experience. The difficulty that ramps up from 1 to 10 in after you finish 3 worlds. The last stage...
Status : Finished the game on solo mode. Died a lot of times. Not touching this again
Score : 4/5 mushrooms

Uncharted 2 Among Theives

 







Game no: 4
Genre: Action
Platform: PS3
Developer: Naughty Dog

Publisher: Sony Computer Entertainment 


Game: Uncharted 2 Among Thieves
Platform: PS3
Genre: Action Adventure
First 3 Hours: Got this for my birthday. This was my most anticipate game for 2010. When first you start the game it shows you on a falling train. How epic is that... The thing about Uncharted formula that works is, it has almost no loading time means that you won't have a time to pause and wait for the next event
What I Liked: Storyline, Train chase, Melee combat
What I Didn't Liked: When you are at the last chapter and you fight some kind of demon... Sucks
Status: Finished it... Awesome experience...
Score: 5/5 Train carts...

Genre: Action
Platform: PS2
Developer: SCE Santa Monica
PublisherSony Computer Entertainment 
Factory Sealed: 156

Game: God of War
Platform: PS2
Genre: Action
First 3 Hours: Notice that most of my games so far have been action games. Well I do love action games. This is a PS2 game. I was lucky enough to get a first edition backward compatible PS3. This game is great. This is the first game where is just constant hitting here and there. Awesome...
What I Liked: Gameplay, Quick Time Events, Combos.
What I didn't Liked: The puzzles, The sort of platforming... This is not that good of a platformer
Status: Finished the game and I found out the 2nd one is already out... Awesome

Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots

 


Game no: 2
Genre: Action
Platform: PS3
Developer: Kojima Productions
PublisherKonami 


Game: Metal Gear Solid 4. Guns of the Patriots
Platform: PS4
Genre: Action, Stealth
First 3 hours: I've played Metal Gear Solid most of my life. But this game is totally different than the previous games. The storyline is damn confusing and long. I think the first hour is just cut scenes. Snake is old...
What I Liked: Gameplay, The collection system, Act 4 (Back to Shadow Moses), The Storyline, The boss fights, Raiden.
What I didn't Liked: The boss fight.. The flying boss. The fact that Snake is shitty. The Storyline...Too complicated. Those small spider things
Status: Finished it. Took me around 1 week plus. This is the end of the series. Fitting ending
Score: 5/5 cardboard boxes.

Uncharted: Drake's Fortune

;
 


Game no: 1
Genre: Action
Platform: PS3
Developer: Naughty Dog
Publisher: Sony Computer Entertainment 

This is my first review. So let me try nailing the format
Game: Uncharted Drake's Fortune
Platform: PS3
Genre: Action
First 3 hours: What a way to kick start the first review of the best game ever. Made by the best development team ever. This game has everything. The thing is Tomb Raider started the exploration genre but Uncharted may have perfected it by making everything seems seem less. There is almost no loading time and the jungle was breathtaking.
What I liked: The story line, the platforming. the action sequence.
What I didn't liked: The melee system. Needs work. Controls are a bit jerky, not a big issue
Status : Finished the game. Going to have another play though but probably later
Score: 5/5 skull heads

Ok. Im starting this again. 5-10 minutes of post about whats currently going on in my life. In the sea of blogs and youtube videos out there. I am not hoping for anyone to find this, rather this is going to be a record of stuff that I do. I've been playing a lot of games and watching a lot of stuff. I just need to record this, just to tally up how did I waste my life among all this years. The first 100 post is going to be dated around 2010 going up to right now. So if you find this...or is it if you found this... oh well
