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.

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 ...

Faerie In a Glass Jar

Hey, everyone. Sometimes gaming can be high-pressure. Take tonight, for instance. I was playing the excellent puzzle game titled 4 Elements #2. I have already done a review of it so I won't attempt to do so again. You have to match symbols and use 'power-ups' to get molten lava to flow around a board and bring life back to a faerie world. Cool. That's what I do. I'm into it. There are also a variety of mini-puzzles such as hidden objects and even putting together a jigsaw puzzle. Hey, when I get in trouble I call Carley. Anyway, tonight, Carley wasn't around when a crisis struck. I was confronted with a faerie in a glass jar. She was crying for help. She said that she was running out of air. Every minute or two she would rattle the jar. In order to free her, I had to find all these objects and use them. Like there were some missing books. Then there was the pieces of a torch. When I found them I could light all the candles. I found the pieces of ...

Modern Combat 4: Zero Hour

Hey, everyone. I have been playing the newest shooter game from Gameloft and it pretty much rocks. Modern Combat 4: Zero Hour is running #4 on the app store against the stiff competition of Angry Birds and Vice City. I have had it for 2 days now but I have just now started to play it. I chose 'no gyroscope' on the controls and 'easy' level of difficulty. The file size is a huge 1.44 Gigs, the biggest game file I've ever downloaded. The price is a healthy $6.99. The in-apps, if you have to have them? They run all the way up to $99 (dollars, not cents). Are they out of their minds? I hope I can play at least most of it without the additional buys. Wouldn't bet on it. The graphics are superb and it plays okay on my I-Pad 3. Here's how the story goes. A lot of dignitaries are assembled in Hawaii and a guy named Page launches an assault on the hotel and takes a noted captive, utilizing a band of mercenaries. This Page guy has a screw loose in h...
