Adventure of A Jawa

First impression is WOW… The graphics are AWESOME. Even during game play the graphics are killer, the sound is rich.

But then you get to game play. It’s the first game I have played with this style, a style that cannot be easily described. For those we have seen the first Lord of the Rings, during the intro when Sauron swings his sword and hundreds of men fly off, that is exactly the game style.

It’s you (and most of the time allies; who can’t kill for the life of them) against hundreds to thousands of enemies. You walk into the on-coming hoard and hack and slash till you kill them all.  It gets very repetitive even with the different move combo’s. You get different weapons with different stats, but besides the design of the weapon, not much else is different in game play.

The story line gets repetitive also. It’s one story, although each character you play the story changes a little, but over all you see the same places and kill the same amount of hoard.

The biggest turn-off is the lack of save points. Each mission can last 10 minutes or up to 30 plus minutes, without a save point. So if you die, you have to re-start it over. That part just BLOWS the big one. That makes this game so not worth playing. Few times the last boss kicked me a new one and then having to restart was not fun. You loss everything, things you collected from chest, Kills, XP. It’s like playing 30 minutes for nothing.

It’s was worth renting the game. I have enjoyed it overall. It’s a different kind of game play style, with killer graphic and a good story.

But no way is it worth 60 dollars.

I destroyed this game over the past week. It took me 4 or 5 days and around 12 hours a day to do it, on Hardened mode (The toughest there is) but it got destroyed.

Story-wise the game was fun and entertaining. I have not played the previous Call of Duty or any other WWII First Person Shooter (FPS) ever, so this was a new experience. Getting to drive a British tank was the best part.

You can tell this was a PC game brought over to XBOX 360 because the graphic where not up to 360 Standards. Not the first game to do it and not the last.

A.I.  Supposedly the AI was suppose to good; and without playing the previous version or another similar style game; I cannot confirm if it was or not. To me as a newbie, parts of it were impressive but other parts just stunk.
But overall I enjoyed it.

I have not tired the Online aspects of this game. Mainly because I do not have a “Gold Account”

I would recommend getting it for the PC over 360 simply because the price of the 360 would not be worth it. It came with the 360 system when I bought it.

Two links added to my link section. Now you can all see how bad I am at fantasy sports and how much time I waste on my XBOX 360.

There are two big football games this weekend for any Boston College Eagle and New England Patriot follower.
 

First off we have (16) Boston Coll. vs. (22) Wake Forest
 

As of when I type this 73% of College Pick’em users predict Boston Coll. will win the game.
 

Nice odds; not that that means anything when the pigskin flies.
 

Atlantic Coast Conference Standings

Atlantic                        Conf     All
Boston College (16)      3-1       7-1
Wake Forest (22)         3-1       7-1
Maryland                      3-1       6-2
Clemson (19)                4-2       7-2
North Carolina State     2-3       3-5
Florida State                 2-4       4-4
 

Our Remaining Schedule:

Sat, Nov 4 at (22) Wake Forest 7:00 pm
Sat, Nov 11 Duke 7:00 pm
Sat, Nov 18 Maryland TBA
Thu, Nov 23 at Miami (FL) 7:30 pm
 

If Boston College wants to represent the Atlantic division in the ACC championship game and have a chance at the automatic BCS bid; we have to beat the remaining four teams on the schedule since they are all conference games. WF and Maryland will hold the toughest test but each game will not be easy.
 

And how important will the last second lose to NC State turn out to be? If we run the table and finished 11-1 it will sting DEEP.    
If we held on to win and not let that miraculous play take place it could have been for a chance to play in the national championship game. OUCH…
 

And the other game… 
 

Indianapolis Colts (7-0-0, 1st AFC South)
@
New England Patriots (6-1-0, 1st AFC East)
 

57% of Pro Pick’em users predict Indianapolis will win the game.
 

Arguably two of the best teams this year in the AFC and Arguably the two best QB’s of this generation and probably who has ever played.  Go to any sports site: espn.com, sportsillustrated.cnn.com, sports.yahoo.com and you can see the hype and fanfare. 
 

From my expert opinion it will come to two things. 
 

A. Ball control for the Patriots: We know the Colt’s offense can score, but if their offense is not on the field they can’t. If we can grind the game out with our two headed monster rushing attack and control the clock we will win.
B. Payton Manning vs. Patriots Defense: We know it’s unlikely the patriots can have the ball for the entire 60 minutes of the game, so when “Choke Artist Payton” has the ball, can the Patriots defense stop him enough. 
 

If the Patriots can pull off those two points; the Patriots will win without a doubt.
If they can’t; it’ll come down to one of two options: 
Who has the ball last
Which Defense makes the timely stop

(New King James Version)      
8 And they heard the sound of the LORD God walking in the garden in the cool of the day, and Adam and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the LORD God among the trees of the garden.
9 Then the LORD God called to Adam and said to him, “Where are you?”
10 So he said, “I heard Your voice in the garden, and I was afraid because I was naked; and I hid myself.”
11 And He said, “Who told you that you were naked? Have you eaten from the tree of which I commanded you that you should not eat?”
12 Then the man said, “The woman whom You gave to be with me, she gave me of the tree, and I ate.”

We need to stop trying to pass the blame to others and just accept what we have done when we do it.

It has become so easy in the world/culture today to just pass the blame on that we do it without a second thought.

Stop trying to create an escape goat and accept what you have done.

No Excuses!!! No one except CHRIST has ever been sinless.

We all sin; We all mess up; We need to Accept it and ask for forgiveness from God and those you sinned against.
