Hey, everyone. It's a beautiful day here. (Blatant lie) I had promised to tell you a bit about a new IOS game I bought called Terminator Salvation. It's a rowdy shooter game that is a reasonable $4.99 on the app store. I bought it about the same time that I bought N.O.V.A 2 and forgive me if I use the two for a 'this porridge is too hot, this is too cold' type of review.
Terminator follows John Connor and his comrades through a series of landscapes which are rendered very well. They fight various robots and terminator-type tanks, planes and vehicles. It's humans against machines for control of the planet.
Skynet, the computer entity that has become self aware, just like a Microsoft Update gone awry, has control of things, and our human friends are not content with that. You fight your way through creepy caves with proximity mines, shooting everything thatbreathes doesn't breathe. There is a canyon battle, a desert battle and a fight through the city streets of a ruined L.A. , to mention a few.
As I mentioned when I wrote the NOVA review, Terminator is an easier shooter than NOVA. Terminator's porridge is a tiny bit cool and NOVA 2's porridge is a bit too hot. Carnivore's porridge is just right for this old man. I like all three shooter games and I recommend all three. I like the way that Terminator gives you an assist in aiming if you really stink. When I told an intense gamer friend of mine this, did I detect just the slightest sneer on his lips? Perhaps.
To be blunt, good games and movies, like beauty, is often in the eye of the beholder. Try the free version of all these games is my advice. If you are into puzzle games and word games you probably won't buy any of them. I bid you farewell.
