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.

Four Free Games

     Hey, everyone. If free games makes the start of a new week a little better, we're in luck. Check these out on your friendly, neighborhood app store. 1) Cowboys vs. Aliens vs. Ninjas- This is a dual stick shooter, much like Mini-Gore . You are an old-west cowboy with a vast array of weapons (earned gradually). You have to move and shoot, avoiding death, as you battle Ninjas and aliens. Some aliens are quite large. Some enemies are big Sumo Wrestlers. There are sword-wielding ninjas and these aliens that yield a mini-nuclear explosion when killed. When your enemies die they leave behind little stacks of money, or skulls. You collect these items because of a strange hobby of trophy grabbing for your macabre collection. Just kidding, the items can be spent or used as the game progresses. This is a good game and I played it for a while last night. 2) The Heist - A puzzle game with a twist. As you try to open a bank vault, you must face a series of different puz...

Game Review: NFS, Hot Pursuit

    This game was one which I refused to download for a while, even though it was on sale for 99 cents. I thought that it looked boring and narrow. Boy, was I wrong! This game totally kicks butt. It is one of those rare games that will actually give you an adrenaline rush. It is that intense. The developers, EA Games, have recently updated the app to include two main avenues of play. You can either be the cops or the racers who are trying to evade the cops. As a racer you have to deal with cops trying to hit you and make you crash, cops buzzing you with helicopters, oncoming traffic, tack strips spread across the road and roadblocks. In the cop mode you are a cop and you are trying to stop a reckless racer by any means, fair or foul. As a racer you can use nitrous oxide for increased speed, overdrive capability and oil slicks. You also can jam the cops communication with a jamming unit. Like almost all games these days, it gets harder as you go along. I prefer my games to...

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...
