Zombie Infection Update

     The title is a bit misleading, I suppose. The update does not mean that Gameloft has updated their game, but merely that I want to tell you guys how it's going in my quest to stop this zombie outbreak, down in South America.
    This game gets better and better as it goes along and I have had a blast with it. It certainly has faults, but it is definitely worth the $4.99. Last night I played it for several hours and made steady progress. I love how the writers wrote the script for this game. I was trying to find a ship, down at the docks, and went into a big building. There was a huge pool, with dead bodies floating in it. I wanted to drain the pool, but when I cranked the drain valve open, it only drained half-way. So, guess who had to climb down there and do the job manually? Not to my surprise, I was attacked by zombies and yet another alligator. The dudes who wrote this had a landing built over the main floor and I fled up there. It was probably my only hope for killing this alligator. He was fast and aggressive, but like most of his breed, he was unable to climb ladders. I had to take the occasional break to kill a climbing zombie, but I kept pouring bullets into the scaly hide of the gator until he cashed in his chips.(died) Then I was in an area stacked with cargo containers and a zombie on an overhead crane was dropping crates on me. I had to climb the crane which towered over the open ocean; quite scenic, for a game. Once up there I had to deal with zombies and to my surprise, a bunch of mutated, attacking birds. Luckily, there was a tripod-mounted machine gun up there  and you definitely want to use it in your battle with the birdies. The birds are really angry. The older heads among you will think about the Alfred Hitchcock flick, The Birds.
    I am currently stuck on what I believe to be the ultimate boss battle of the game in which mutated sea monsters are coming over the side of the ship. I may have to go to you-tube and check for a way to beat the thing.
    This game is fairly deep, (lots of content). The writers did a creative job and other than the things noted yesterday, I highly recommend it.

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...

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...

Bottle On The Doorknob

      Hey, everyone. I took a day of vacation today and really enjoyed it. We went out and bought some flowers. Flowers don't do well up here as a rule so we buy some and have a couple of big pots of assorted flowers on the deck for the summer. This year we are going to set the pots out in the yard a bit. The reason for this is the moisture and dirt in the pots seems to attract ants, scorpions and perhaps gnats. Bloody drag, what?     This weekend there seemed to be a bad odor in the house in the area of the master bedroom and the master bath. We could not isolate what the problem was. We did a number of things, including pouring vinegar and baking soda down the drains, which boils them out in rather spectacular fashion. Put a handful small amount of baking soda down them first, then pour vinegar down them. Very cool.     We finally deduced that a mouse had crawled up between the floor and sub-floor underneath the jacuzzi, after ...
