Happy New years! Hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas and holiday! I most definitely did, however as a cause of a good Christmas I have developed a bit of ADHD, there is too much to do! As an added complication,Joe received Call of Duty:Modern Warfare 2, so he tends to hog the xbox. It has been okay so far as we compromise, but I can tell that this will not be a civil situation for long. I have already been limited to the amount of sets I can play in DJ Hero before he kicks me off, it used to be 3 sets, but now I'm only allowed one set that he chooses before he takes out DJ Hero and puts in the COD. If anyone plays DJ Hero you'd know that some sets only have 2 songs in them, so I am getting the shit end of the stick.Might be just the girlie gamer in me, but DJ Hero is a lot of fun. If you are a fan of the music games it is definitely worth the try. The set lists are really well done so even if you aren't a huge fan of that type of music it's enjoyable. It's also really challenging, maybe just for me because it requires a lot of coordination and I have none, but it makes it that much more satisfying when you get through a mix without losing your shit. It's a nice change from Guitar Hero and Rockband while maintaining that music game feel we all know and love.
Even though DJ Hero is the favourite of my gifts at Christmas I also received Left4Dead2 which is equally as awesome. I haven't gotten a chance to play through more then the first campaign (hence DJ Hero, Joe hogging xbox for COD) but I can already tell that the improvements made from Left4Dead are going to make a HUGE difference. I love that they've added little objectives in the campaigns so it's more then just going from point A to B. That will for sure cut out that unfortunate repetitiveness that the first game suffered from and much more then just killing waves and waves of zombies. And because there still are waves and waves of zombies to fight through, what better way to fight them then with kick ass melee weapons? Joe prefers the cricket bat so far, where as I have a special place in my heart for the chainsaw. Not to mention that there are so many more weapons available throughout the level, it's overwhelming! In a good way of course, because the new classes of super zombies are overwhelming as well. I hate that spitter with a passion, she creeps me out and it never fails that I will get stuck in her zombie acid spit. I can promise you that when I get sick of the DJ Hero and fully immerse myself in some Left4Dead2 action, I will write another blog entry about the full game. I love left4dead so much in the first place, that any improvements made are just that much more exciting.
I also wanted to get into the COD once Joe decides he's had enough of it, but that could be a while. So here are the things I will be working on until my next post, my blog new years resolutions if you will:
-Getting DJ Hero out of my system
-Finishing Left4Dead2
-Start playing COD:Modern Warfare 2 if Joe permits
-pick up Mario World again.
Yes I said it. I think it's maybe time I end my Hiatus and pick up what I started. Super Mario World will prevail.
