Razor:Salvation and Apollo Creed's Trainer

    Hey, everyone. I played a lot more of my new game called Razor Salvation and it is a lot of fun. Plus, I am getting really decent at this game. Tonight I broke into the top five in one category, world-wide. I was in the zone, blasting zombies and Grunts and snipers. I shot crates for extra cash and saved many civilians. I fantasized that the civilians purposely came to my side of the ship because they knew that I was there to hover over them like a big eagle, smiting down their enemies in the nick of time so that they could board my ship.
    In fact, I got so into it that I started thinking about the old Rocky movies. You remember when Apollo's trainer is rubbing his shoulders, getting him ready for the fight? I thought he was talking to me as I went out to slay the alien scum who were destroying my planet.
"You're the best," he said. "You're the best now and you're the best that's ever been. Women love you, little kids love you. Women want you and men want to be you. You're the champ. This is your time. This is your day."
     Then I awoke, with my I-Pad on my lap. My wife, not Apollo Creed's trainer, was shaking my shoulder. I must have been talking in my sleep because she smiled and said this:
"Come on to bed, champ. You can kill more aliens tomorrow."

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...
