  That was surely a long time

  Hello, everyone:

  After coming back to the site I realized there has been a long time since my last post... A little over two weeks. That's how busy I was around doing a lot of stuff. And I think is fair for all of you to know what happened to me.

  Work has been a busy stuff. I have been working on saturdays (Today I will too, but later) but that means good stuff. I am trying to leave things running well, since my boss is coming to the plant to see how am I doing, I hope that visit brings positive things after all that happened. SO there you go... busy at work.

  My personal life is really good. Enjoying married life, doing some home stuff, visiting people ussually I dont care about and sometimes going to parties. I went to a Halloween Party dressed like Batman it was fun since we performed a Rock Band Song all disguised. I will get a couple of pictures when I have the chance- Also, I am preparing to make my end of the year cleaning... I really like to do this because at the end, the house looks great

  Gaming world have gotten better, I must say. I got two games recently: BRUTAL LEGEND and BORDERLANDS and I have been playing them a lot. I have my comments about both this games but I think that would be a better topic for another blog, but I can let you know that I certainly liked both games and one of them is a serious candidate for my personal GOTY award (Yeah, almost as good as Batman: Arkham Asylum)

  Now that november has arrived, the last games I want will arrive: Modern Warfare 2, Assassin's Creed 2, L4D 2, Dragon Age and The Saboteur.

  These five games are on my list and I might probably get only two of them. Dragon Age is definetely one that can wait since it is a long RPG and certainly those can wait, especially when I have Oblivion and Borderlands to finish ... and probable The Saboteur will be a game I will get until later for the same reason... L4D2 is a must since it represents a great game to play with people and I absolutely loved the first one... Plus, Modern Warfare and Assassin's Creed were among my favorite games during their first release.

  So there you have it... That's what I have done and that's what I will get. But as you see, it is not as simple, because by January, Mass Effect 2 and Bayonetta will be around... and if I delay those games too... February will have Splinter Cell: Conviction... and March will see Bioshock 2... and who knows what other games will get my attention after that!!!!

  I am in serious trouble.

  I will just go and check some of your blogs to catch up with you all guys

  Hope you have a great weekend. And I will try to stay step by more often!

  What will I do... so many games... so little time...

  Holy... I never expected this time to be as great as it is right now.

  A lot of games that I expected are getting great scores.

  Batman Arkham Asylum... 9.0

  Brutal Legend... 8.5

  Borderlands... 8.5

  FIFA 10 ... 9.0

  Rock Band Beatles... 9.0

  And I could keep going and going...

  And you know what? I am pretty sure that we haven't seen the best yet... There is still a lot to come for this year:

  

  

  

  

  

  And the worst part is that I still have some old games that need to be played!

  What will I do???

  Some other marvel Universe games.

  There has been a lot of games with Marvel Characters... most of them based on movies based on the comics... ugh... but I can say that I have played some great ones. As for Batman, there weren't many of them, but I certainly got quite some good games. Here it is.

  My first ever videogame related to a Marvel Character didn't appear on either Atari or NES. It was for the Gameboy

  

  And it was a really hard and unsatisfying game. Slow, boring and kind of... hard. Pretty dissapointing considering my age.

  After this, I don't remember getting anything else until later. The great showing for good games came with the SNES. Now, there were some good games

  

  This game was beyond awesome. I never got tired about it and played it over and over. This is how a good old SNES game should've been in the first place. THat's why Capcom showed how to do it.

  

  Kicking some sentinel's butt!

  

  Hell yeah!

  After some considerable time I got a SPider Man Game. A new one that was interesting due to the Comic series. Spider Man Maximum Carnage.

  

  THis one was pretty decent for the time. I liked his comic stylish graphics. But ti was too damn hard too Arguibly a good game. Beat' em up. One of the first to use the helping hero concept. And the sequel sucked so... I won't talk about it.

  

  Girls can kick you too, Spidey!

  

  Choose wisely.

  And probably the most known game from these guys:

  

  Oh, yea... Fond memories of one of the hardest games ever made. I can possibly think that many of us played the game pretty excited about how we were using a lot of great heroes and suddenly... dissapointment. The game was not that bad, it was just that it felt... like a big steal. In fact, in order to finish it, I had to team up with my brother because I was unable to complete the Spiderman's section. Never got used to his mobility. And Spidey's mobility was not the worst part for the game. What about Rhyno's battle... ... What about the annoying climbing scenes with WOlverine, the rails with Cyclops, the draining energy enemies from Gambit levels... and of course, the cherry on the top... Storm's water levels.

  We finished the game, but it took a lot of our time and effort. Compared with the previous two games, this was a terrible thing to do What a punishment, no wonder Capcom ended up with the best game.

  

  Have fun, Wolvie...!!!

  

  Yeah, you keep jumping around...

  This was a quick blog, I know. I hope to come with something bigger and better... see ya!
