The Sandstorm, N.O.V.A 3 and the Lion King

    Hey, everyone. When last I talked about the popular shooter game called Nova 3, I had been on a sweet run, passing several save points and approaching the highly coveted end of Chapter 4(?) I was sick of that derelict space ship and ached to move on.
    When I reached the transporter room with my two-faced friend, Maz-Rah, we encountered fierce resistance. We were killing Volterite scum and stacking them up like firewood.
    Maz-Rah continually whined, "Disable the transporters, or they'll just keep coming!"
    Over and over he said this until I muted the game. I mean, did he tell me how to disable the transporters?? Nooooo, he did not. So, in between shooting guys I tried several things to disable the devices. I threw grenades in them. I shot the blue lights above the doors. I went inside them all (7) and looked for buttons and switches. I went to every control panel in the room and checked for a breaker, switch or a crystal shard. No luck.
    Finally I went to You-Tube and watched a walkthrough of the this chapter by a guy who calls himself Lionking853. Lion King did a good job on the video and I want to thank him for showing me what to do about my Volterite infestation. The blue lights above the doors turn red from time to time. Shoot them out while they are red and the transporters are disabled. Don't forget the transporter on the top landing. That landing is a good place to run to while you recover your health, by the way. Then you can come back down and rejoin the battle.
     Now I have, at last, escaped the space ship and been sent to a desert planet that is used as a prison. A bad sandstorm is coming as I try to battle my way to a shelter.
    One last thought. I have downloaded a couple of free games this morning. I haven't played them but I thought I'd mention them before they go off sale.
1) Darkside
2) Toon Shooters
3) Marvel Kapow HD
     Have a great day! If you don't, please don't blame it on me. Ha, ha.
   From a sandstorm on a desert planet, I'm Kal Warden, CE Wills.

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 ...

You're Aiming the Missile Where?

    Hey, everyone, out there in game-land. The number 1 game on the friendly neighborhood app store is Call of Duty: Strike Team . No wonder, because it is a terrific game. The farther I play, the cooler it gets. But before I get to that, what are all these numbers indicating on my gun? Has to be some sort of ammo indicator for the clips, I guess. either that or some of my compadres has trouble doing his math homework. Whatever.     Hey. Check out the picture of me hitching a ride on an enemy truck so that my team can infiltrate a missile silo. Do you like the face mask? I bought it at a store called Fashions by Bane. Ha, ha. (Batman Reference) On this mission, my team was assisted by a Russian Spetsnaz squad. How's that for detente, comrade? These Spetsnaz guys make everything fun. What I mean is this. We shoot bunches of enemies and get into the bowels of the silo. We get to the gantry where the missile is (Pictured above) and we see that the rad...

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...
