Hey, Cooper H2

    Hey, I'd like to give a shout to Cooper for his comment on To Kill A Lobster. I totally agree with you on this great and aggravating game called Shadowgun. Since the other day when they put out the update for this game it has been acting weird. For instance, I was playing it today and on the regular game, (not the new levels), every time I got in to the hot and heavy action the game would just shut down and send me to my home page with all the icons. I suspect that your problem with no green ball above the Cyberlobster's head may be because of the update too. Hey, another thing, right now I'm playing the new levels and I'm stuck in a hallway where there is really no exit. I got there by sprinting through these electrical fields that come out in bursts. I'm thinking about just starting over at level one of the extension pack and trying a different path. In that first level, you have a choice between dropping down an air duct or hacking a computer. Because the hacking wasn't going very well, I just walked over and dropped down the air duct. Maybe that's like a trap, I don't know. What I do know is this. I think a lot of you guys are like me. You have a love/hate relationship with this game. Sort of like being in love with a quirky, unpredictable woman, you know.
    Good luck to all you gamers and may you never run out of ammo. By the way, I got past a place I've been stuck on Modern Combat 3, today. The place is on level 6, the aircraft carrier, as you are trying to evacuate the bridge. I kept getting killed by some dude hiding in the dark, I guess. I finally went to the store and used some of my accumulated points to buy a vest. (No cash involved). Then I was able to survive long enough to escape and steal a plane. Heck, I thought there was only 6 levels to the game. Now I am on level 7. I-Pad gaming is cool, though, isn't it?

P.S. I was trying to give you guys some screen shots from the new levels but the pics would not cooperate.

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 Exoskelet...

To Kill A Lobster (Shadowgun)

    Hey, everyone. I had not planned on posting tonight but I have to make something right. I gave Shadowgun a good review last night but I didn't do it justice. Tonight I got past the vicious Cyber Lobster and went on to play a lot more. This is a terrific game! Last night I would have rated it 4 stars out of 5. Tonight I give it 5 stars out of 5. By the way, here's a spoiler alert. If you don't want to know how to kill the lobster, don't read any further. I say this because I had several people come to the blog that were looking for the silver bullet ( figure of speech from old Dracula movies, not literal weapon for lobster) to kill this behemoth.      When the monster appears, he starts firing missiles at you out of his mechanical mouth. Don't run and hide behind a barrier. Get close to him and run back and forth, dodging missiles until you can blast the lime colored ball of light that appears periodically over his head. I suspect that this is hi...

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...
