Dr. Simon's Exoskeleton (Shadowgun)

    Hey, everyone. Nice to be back with you after a tough, hectic week. We have had some snow, sleet, fog, drizzle, torrential rain and flooding this week.
     I'd like to talk, yet again, about Shadowgun, the shooter game for I-Padster. I was much further along than what I thought when I posted about some of the battles yet to be faced for those of you who had just killed the Driller. The fact is that I am on the last level. This level has Dr. Simon, the resident evil nutcase, inhabiting a monstrous, powerful robot. His brain resides in a bubble on top, much like a cherry on a hot fudge Sunday. (Yes, I am still on my eating binge) It is a tremendous fight because you not only have to kill this huge semi-person, but there are a bunch of mutant guards, flying drones etc. to deal with at the same time. I had played the darn level about thirty times and decided to check out someone else's battle. So I went to You-Tube and typed in, Dr. Simon Exoskeleton Walkthrough. I picked out a video of the fight and was surprised to note that I had been doing all the right things. I had to only persevere to defeat my enemies. Because I am John Slade, Shadowgun.
    I feel a similar sense of satisfaction with this game as I did with the awesome 9MM. These are two action games with a capital A.
    Hey, guess what I am snacking on as I blog tonight? I am having a boiled egg with mustard, some saltine crackers, cheetos, champagne, and a dough-nut filled with cream. This is a secret snack that I learned from my friend named Chester Cheetah. He used to work in marketing. He also runs, like really fast. Chester was at the house one day and he says, "Dude? If you want to be built like that guy John Slade on your video game ? Eat this stuff at about 3 in the morning. It's like having super powers, my man."
   Unfortunately, I don't seem to be building any muscle mass. I am, however, starting to grow orange fur under my armpits.

  2. Ok i only got this game on my samsang galaxy tab a week ago, i have found a simple way to kill the exo skeleton.... the first thing to do is when the screen opens up quickly switch to the missile launcher, run right up to the guard rail and when he taunts you shoot him in the face, he will reel back and expose this glowing thingie shoot that too.... then run to the left side of the screen and pick upmthe wet of missiles and continue right round till you get back to the starting point then repeat the whole shooting him in the face and glowy thing again, his health will be less than half, this time run to the right under the guys shooting at you to the lower right hand corner where you will find the ammo store, then wait till he taunts again and then shoot him in theface... stay there do not move his missiles wont hit you and also the other guys wont hit you enough times to kill you

    1. Hey. Thanks for your comment and the advice. You must be a heck of a player if you went that far in a week on Shadowgun. That's the way my friend Trevor is. It took me months. As I've said before, I have a love/hate relationship with this wonderful but frustrating game. All that being said, it is as much fun as you can have for that amount of money. Waiting on a sequel.

Shadowgun: Killing The Windbreaker

    Hey, everyone. I thought it might be a good time for a bit of an update on the riveting game called Shadowgun. Consider this your spoiler alert and tune out if you want to.     Once you get past the dreaded Driller, things get better but you are certainly not out of the woods. You will want to make sure you keep a full clip in your gun as you stroll through the realm of the evil and crazy Dr. Simon. But hey, you're John Slade, the Shadowgun, and wherever you set your foot is the place to which your authority extends.      I love the way that some of the barriers disintegrate under the impact of bullets. I didn't learn this at my mother's knee but I darn sure know it now. I have learned that there are certain places it is good to plan on using the rocket launcher. Keep your stock of those filled. There are these transporter guys who are aggressive punks. The only way they respect you is if you kill them, so that's the way I roll. As you know by now, their strategy

Shadowgun: Crushing The Driller On Level 4

      Hey, everyone. Let's talk about the game called Shadowgun, the I-Pad game with which I have a love-hate relationship. Most of you who made it past the evil Cyber Lobster are doubtless locked in a death struggle with the Driller at the end of level 4. At this point you have been in the cave for a long time. The Driller breaks through the rock wall and chases you through the tunnel as you try to shoot out the green lights which slows the Driller down. If you are slick enough to shoot out all the lights and emerge from the cave, a rolling door crashes on the Driller and crushes his aggravating carcass. I have tried and failed to beat the Driller at least 250 times. I hate the Driller to the heights and depths my soul can reach. I hate it like a plague. I hate it with intensity of feeling. I hate it like a rich man hates taxes. Excuse me, I got carried away.       We had a big dinner here at the green retreat and my friend Trevor was here today. He is my gaming consultant. I tol

Men In Black 3, Just Empty Black Suits?

    Hey, everyone, out there in the world! Nice of you to stop by. Today I downloaded Men In Black 3 for I-Pad. There were a number of positive reviews on the app store, but there were several reviews that complained about the game failing to open. This was my experience. It opened to the screen shown above and froze there. At least it was free. I have an I-Pad 3, so maybe you will have better luck with yours.     EA games is having a big sale for the holiday weekend. I already have most of the titles which are on sale, however. I did buy several games this weekend, though, and I'd like to tell you about them.    Get Out of My Galaxy is a Mario type of space game in which you control a monster with 4 arms. The dude eats rocks and has a penchant for slapping little cone-headed aliens. There are a certain number of aliens to slap on every planet, then you move on to the next world. There are power-ups to grab as you go along, for health and other things. There is prickly vegetatio
