My Gold I-Phone 5S and Spelunking With Iron Man

   Hey, everyone in the Ethernet, and all the ships at sea. My buddy, Iron Man, needed my help today. It seems that there is a new update to Iron Man 3 and I decided to get it. The main reason is because the update had a new level or map in it. The new level is called Woodlands and I have included a screen shot above. The Metallic Avenger and I are flying over open fields, blistering the sky as we dodge silos and wind turbines. You also fly through forests. At one point we flew through the tunnel in a giant Sequoya or redwood, whatever.
    But the most fun was when we went spelunking. It started like this. My man, Tony, came to me and proposed that we hang together for the day. "Cool", I said, "but I once was in a cave with a friend and our flashlight went out. It was really scary and if we are going to do this, you're going to have to bribe me."
    "Bribe?" He asked indignantly. "With what?"
"You're the head of Stark Industries, you tell me." He thought for a minute.
"How about the new I-Phone 5S?"
"The gold colored one?" I asked eagerly. He laughed.
"Hey, not even I can get one of those. I'm rich, but I'm not omnipotent."
"Go on Ebay."
    He reluctantly agreed, because we're tight. So, yeah, we are tearing up the sky and flew under the big arm of a Caterpillar and blasted through all these enemies which I have described in a previous review. Sure, I was scared when we zoomed through the cave, dodging the stalactites and stalagmites. But I manned up because I wanted the new phone.
     By the way, before I forget, the other levels have a few changes also. You see some different things than before. For instance, there are huge cargo planes that come roaring overhead while you are zooming down the airstrip in Santa Monica. Really impressive. Then you take a side trip down the beach and dodge beach-related stuff. It was a nice, refreshing change after all the sameness of doing that level hundreds of times before.
    There are a few ads that have appeared, unfortunately, but, there are tournaments to play if you have a connection. I wish that they would be a bit more liberal with in-game cash and armors.
     If you want to play when you're not on-line just tap friends and then play.
    So, I know you're curious, did I get the rare breed, almost extinct, called Gold I-Phone 5s? Well, Tony explained it like this.
"Here's the deal, CE,... I don't exist. This guy named Stan Lee dreamed me up. Only a geek like you would ask me for anything. I am not even your imaginary friend. And, if I did exist, who do you think I am? Steve Jobs? Tim Cook? Wait a few months and get the darn phone."
    I was a bit crushed, but I decided to just get a new armor instead. Then I saw that I would have to grind a while to get the in-game cash necessary. I think I'll intentionally fly Iron Man into a giant redwood, and keep doing it until he comes across with my phone.
     From this creepy cave in the woods, this is CE Wills.
P.S. Coincidentally, Iron Man 3, the movie, just came out on DVD. Which reminds me...didn't that kid in Tennessee make Tony give him a bunch of cool stuff in exchange for his help? To me that sets a precedent and I expect the phone Muy Pronto.

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...

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...

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...
