The Origami Killer

Quantic Dreams had recently released a new trailer for Heavy Rain, the decided to get rid of the first woman that was presented in "The Casting" with one who seems to be more then just a robotic deformed face. I am glad the design of the game has modified a lot from the previous trailer.

Not much is known about the game only that the story will be like Indigo Prophecy without the supernatural element (that pretty much ruined the game experience for so many.) I noticed in the trailer they no longer use the Red, Green, Blue, Yellow symbols to do the quick time performances it's buttons instead. Hopefully more would be know about this game, despite Indigo Prophecy's flaws I still find it a pretty good game. Hopefully this one will be just as good.

What's with Quantic Dreams and dead animals, do they like Taxidermy or something? I remembered a lot of stuffed critters in Agetha's house from Indigo Prophecy and now this house in Heavy Rain.

I'm Sorry Daddy!

If there is one goal I set this year it was that the first game I defeated on the XBox 360 it would be Beautiful Katamari. Being a fan of the Katamari series Beautiful Katamari was a bit of a disappointment compared to the others.

Prince is once again set out on a coarse from the black hole that his abusive father, King of the Cosmos created. So the story goes, to me it feels shorter then the other ones and instead of taking in request like you did in the other Katamaris. The Prince just goes from building to building to all is complete. A lot of the levels seemed to be repeated from previous games such as the endings credit game which was first used in Me and My Katamari. As well as the rolling up countries, the only things they did different was extended it further into outer space. I can see a reason for this, for people who haven't played any of the other games because of them owning an XBox to have some of the experience. But for me it feels like playing the PSP version all over again.

The opening theme song doesn't seem as energetic compared to the other three such as We Love Katamari. It was the first sign that this game wasn't going to live up to it's name. The thing I was really disappointed in was there no story within a story. In both Katamari's for the Playstation 2 there was a story that followed every roll completed. In the first one is was about a boy and his family who want to go to a moon that wasn't there. It was up to the Prince to roll up a Katamari to make the moon as well as the universe. We Love Katamari was a memory of King of the Cosmos as he grew up with a strict father and ended up running away. Only to meet his love Queen of the Cosmos. But Beautiful Katamari feels incomplete because of this, felt like they didn't care much about it or it was rushed.

Just like in every other Katamari game Daddy of the Cosmos finds new ways of punishing the Prince for his errors. This time it's a cosmic billiard table and Prince is set in the middle running for his life against the billiard balls that are striked to him. Earning the King points as he lectures you about so and so.

I have yet to play the online because I just recently got a XBox 360 and haven't hooked it up to the internet yet.

So Angry And Yet So Tired... Damn You Assassin's Creed Ending!

It's almost 5 am and I just defeated Assassin's Creed and if there is one thing you should know about this game. It's that the ending leaves in a cliff hanger. So if you are into it as much as I was then you will be very pissed off that you have to wait for the second one to come out. And no I am not talking about Assassin's Creed for DS.

I really can't say that I hated the game, the only thing that pissed me off was trying to find information in a very large city. It takes me forever to do and it's so annoying.

The game storyline itself leaves more questions then answers, not only that I looked for a while for some sort of information about the second one but found little to nothing. I guess the April Fools joke they did would make me pissed off if I cared about it back then.

I have to admit when I first saw this game I had really no interest in it, but once again a game surpassed my expectations and I really enjoyed it. It felt like a Historical Hitman game. But a lot of people say it's a lot like a Prince of Persia game. I never played Prince of Persia before so I will have to take their word for it.

Well off to bed I got work.

The End For Chulip

I just defeated Chulip, I've actually been really addicted to that game I played it none stop once I got home from work. It's a game that has it's flaws and at times can be very difficult but it's a game that is not appreciated by people. The comical parts of the game is what kept me going, everything from the reference of Space Invaders in the Scarecrow Field, to the Midnight Films of Goro.



Favorite Moments

My favorite parts would be the Factory when you have to hide from the security guard and if you hide in the Fourth District under beside the outhouse. The guard will eventually run in and take a very loud shit.



I also liked teasing the cop at night seeing how many times I can run around him without getting shot. As well as give blood to Dr. Dandy just to hear his cackle.



I liked going to the Turtle Bathhouse the music was the best in the game for me, and taking a bath perfectly is a big challenge till you get the hang of it. But it's all fun and you even get a smooch from Leo if you take the bath correctly.



Once you kiss someone they automatically get put into a photo album that is located beside the tv. In it is pictures of the people you kissed doing things that is silly and would give me a good laugh.



My favorite Underground Residence would have to be Sniper and Target, Sniper would always wait on top of a hill in Scarecrow Field for Target to try use the outdoor facilities. Being on his hands in knees Target will craw to use the toilet as Sniper relentless shoots at him. What really makes this skit comical is that Target is this fat businessman with a cigar in his hand. While Sniper looks to be a out of the trenches trench coat fiend.



But the best is actually find "Poopie" everywhere from garbage cans to bushes. All will make you loose hearts. But the humor of it is that you get different sizes from regular to large. Then there is Mr. Cheapot who will buy it off you and if you decide just to throw it away it will turn up in the Lost and Found at the Police Station.

(I took this picture with my camera, I thought it was the funniest thing ever.)

This is a really good game to relieve stress there is some problems with it such as no translations for titles in films and when it cuts to the next episode. As well as tons of spelling mistakes. But once you look past all of that it's a really good game that everyone should play.

Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney Trials and Tribulations

I just defeated Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney Trials and Tribulations, I thought the final case was really good with the plot twist and the merciless battles again and again. But sadly I still found Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney Justice For All my favorite of the series.



The game play is a lot different from the other two games mostly because you can question the defendants in court with their own testimonies. Also you get a better look at Mia and Phoenix's past and learn more about them. As well as the mysterious Godot a new prosecutor to go head to head with Phoenix. The only thing I really didn't like about the game was the same mistake they made with the other two as well. I am tired of having a game over and having to read through every sentence or amuse myself with something else until I get to the part where I lost the trial at for another round. I would like some kind of fast forward button to let you speed through text instead of having to wait for their full sentence. Like they do when you already read a certain part and you can fast forward it again.



I was quite surprised when one of the cases was a thief case instead of a murder case. It was something totally new and I much welcomed and wish that the series would have more then just murders. As well as the new Canadian judge that was in some of the trials as well.



But I loved when my favorite character Franziska Von Karma made her appearances along with Miles Edgeworth. I kind of figured they would they are important characters and seeing how this game was dealing with the past and present of everything they were bound to show up sooner or later.



I am still debating at this point if I want to play Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney. I am not a big fan of changing the character in any series. When it's already deep within the series and you are familiar with each character and their history and story. But I guess they wanted to take a new approach to the series. Seeing if this new remake to the game would spice things up instead of releasing the same old same old over again just with different death scenario.

Spoilers.

At the case of the Mask De Masque I already had a feeling I knew it was Luke Atmey behind it all. Mostly because I saw a Fillmore episode where a fake psychic would receive emails telling him about future events before they happened. It turned out to be the school reporter that was giving the tips and hints of the future upcoming events in order for the newspaper reporter to become famous for his articles about the psychics predictions. It was exactly the same where Detective Luke Atmey used Mask De Masque to go in and steal valuable items from museums and exhibits. So Detective Luke Atmey would "Retrieve" them back from Mask De Masque and become famous and with rewards of his accomplishments. But none the less the trials were still just as fun.

Rule of Rose

Rule of Rose, just as twisted as Alice in Wonderland.

It's Wonderland

The Inside look of Alice.


I grew up watching such movies as Alice in Wonderland. With so many things that are now used to describe life with this story. Such as The Matrix it isn't too hard to imagine that someone like American McGee would make a twisted version of his own.

When I first played this game I wasn't good at video games on PC, and I wasn't use to the WASD control pad so I found playing the game very hard. Sadly though my flaky sister borrowed it and I never seen it in 3 years. I finally got it back just recently but I was no longer in high school where having a video game was considered a blessing. Now I don't have time with all the other games I have and the little room I have on my PC (Need to clean my computer of files.) I will someday return to twisted Wonderland to give it one more shot. Hopefully around Halloween so it has a better feel for the games atmosphere.



My characters name on the other hand ALICExia isn't from this game or any relations to the game. It is my middle name and my great grandmothers name that I was named after. I treasure this middle name as much as the memories of my great grandmother so I use this name a lot throughout fantasy games or video games for that matter that would allow a long name like Alicexia (Curse you Pokemon Pearl!).

Birthday / Phoenix Wright

Just defeated Phoenix Wright Ace Attorney- Justice For All. It was a really hard game but I managed to get to the end, I managed to get the good ending through lots of thinking and knowledge. I made the right choices and in the end got a really heart filled ending. I thought the ending was awesome and well put.

As such today is my birthday I am now 21 years old. I haven't been doing anything except lazing around and playing Phoenix Wright. I have nothing special planned because I work the rest of the week. Parties are too much trouble, right now I am trying to get my Summoners Job on Final Fantasy XI while I played Phoenix Wright at the same time. I need to find the weather of fire in order to get all the colours of the rainbow. But it's a lot harder then it looks, so far fire is the only element I am having trouble getting. But I have all day and I will continue looking for Fire weather.
