Zombie Shirts, Recliners and Mercenary Ops

    Hey, everyone. With great power comes great responsibility. Uncle Ben says that all the time. As the foremost zombie killer in the South, I have to keep the zombie hordes at bay. Someone gave me a shirt for Christmas, in recognition of my skills. (Shown above.) I also received an I-Tunes gift card, so I combined the two. I put on my new shirt and bought some zombie games and went on a campaign to remove the zombie menace from a creepy mansion. With my stash of I-Tunes cash, I splurged on new weaponry and commenced harsh retribution on the undead. I am glad my new shirt is black because these flowers from outer space were spitting green slime at me. They also were dropping huge spiders that blew apart when I blasted them. A messy job.
     Luckily, earlier in the day, we had taken down the Christmas tree and put my recliner back in it's hole. Exhausted by zombie battling, I felt obligated to recline and take a nap, ensuring that the chair still worked properly.
    In other news, I bought an app that is really a book, or a book that is sold as an app. I am speaking of the Dr. Seuss books that are on sale for 99 cents. As you know, Dr. Seuss books are cool as a moose. I bought Green Eggs and Ham. I streamed it to my 60 inch TV via Apple TV. There is a choice in the app where you can have the book read to you or you can read it yourself. I let it do the page movement and reading on the TV and really enjoyed it. Each word lights up as it is read so that a youngster can learn to read. If you tap the I-Pad, it will tell you what that object is. If you tap the boy(?), it will tell you that he is "Sam I Am", for instance. You will quickly learn that you can eat the aforementioned eggs with a fox, or you can eat them in a box.
      Since we rarely have children around the place, it is farfetched to say that I am buying these books for someone else. So, hey, I'll just admit that I am buying them for exploring the tech abilities of my I-Pad. Right. They are a great bargain. Remember, they are in the app store, not I-Books. I guess you could get the regular book from I-Books...
    Back to this Mercenary Ops game I mentioned. I wish it had a few more save points. One place I was stuck for a while. I had to accumulate 13 med packs and 'heal myself' 13 times to get through that chapter. It was rough in that creepy cellar! Once I was getting slashed and there was nothing left alive in front of me. I looked at my feet and a zombie had crawled up to me and was chomping on my lower extremities. I had to admire his grit, if not his manners. I quickly rendered the coup de grace to his skanky behindus.
      Well, I knew that you would be curious what I had done with my Christmas day, so now you know. I may post again, later in the day, so check back if you get bored.
     From the deep south, on a foggy, dripping, cold day, this is 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...
