I've went out of my normal reaches lately. I played a online game, which never happens. It's not that I don't like the online play concept, I guess I get too nervous. Now I must say, disregarding my 2,200 post count, I'm probably the shyest/nervous user on the site. I often don't post blogs into the forums because I'm afraid of the reaction. Though none of my threads ever get commented on, but when they do its always been positive stuff. That shyness or nervousness has always kept me away from online game. Yes I know they can't see you or sometimes hear you but it's the fact that they can see every dumb move you make. I don't want other players getting a hate for me or something. Well all that has pretty much disappeared. I started to play some Battlefield 1943 and I think I'm going to stay with this online fad I've heard so much about. I must add, Battlefield is not my first online game, I played a lot of Fat Princess and loved it. 1943 is a fantastic

downloadable game, which is something that has been happening a lot. You play as either the Marines or Japs, one team being red the other blue. Games are pretty fast paced, some can last 10 mins, or if it's hectic, an hour.  You're goal is to capture bases, you do this til the other teams bar is depleted (not sure how the bar works, if you know please explain it to me). I have played with a riflemen the whole time. I'm a level 16 or so I can't remember and I've played it for about five hours. The thing that is weird is, I DON'T SUCK AT THIS GAME! I'm not the best FPS player, I die often, too often. But I've was a big fan of Battlefield: Bad Company's controls they were solid. Thankfully that plays well into 1943. I've been part of  the best squad about 10 times which I know is not so great but to me it's awesome. My favorite map is Iwo Jima. Yes, I know a lot of people like Wake Island but I find it too big and fire fights can be spread out too much. What I like about Iwo Jima is that you can hide in many places and it's a small island so fire fights are close and dramatic. Which is really the strongest part of 1943. Getting into a fire fight with five others

from the enemy team and barley making it out is very satisfying. My happiest moments all involved tanks. I hid from one for about five minutes, I killed all enemy soldiers that came at me and held the base, by myself, until one of our tanks came. That happened twice, once on Iwo Jima and the other on Wake Island. Those were such great moments. 1943 also looks great, it can be rich and colorful or gritty and dark. 1943 is a game that has got me hooked on playing online. Also I've played some PixelJunk Shooter. It's also a fantastic downloadable game, a frustrating one too. The first level is pretty easy enough, mostly a tutorial, but what I hated was that I was so obsessed with getting all the men and all the treasures. There are diamonds scattered all across the maps. For some reason this game has hit my OCD switch in my head that makes me have to 100% a area before moving on. I'm only just started on Episode 2 so I'm not to far along in the game to say much more. One thing to add, the controls and graphics are sooooo damn good. Oh and I beat Fallout 3 for the fourth time. That game after all that time, somewhere in the 200 hour range, it's still gripping and fantastic. I bought some of the DLC and started on Broken Steel.

I can't say that it's amazing or good, just okay. It feels like Bethesda wanted to please everyone who wanted to continue after the main story ended. I mostly hate it because it focuses too much on shooting. I think the game is much better when you have small fire fights and are contained. Not big areas with lot of enemies, hard one too. When Bethesda raised the level cap they had to have jacked the difficulty, they added some new enemies. I've come across some super strong Super Mutants, scorpions and ghouls. They game likes to put you against some of the hardest enemies in the game in big numbers too. There's one where you have to go to Old Olney, which is where tons of Deathclaws are. You have to deal with a lot of Sentry Bots and lots of strong ghouls, those parts were so fucking frustrating. Which it lead me to not care too much for the add on, the game before was pretty low on action, but this one is over the fucking top compared to the main story. But the new perks are cool and new areas are really cool. It's not bad, just not really want I wanted out of Fallout 3 DLC, I wanted more of the same.

Since I'm getting into online stuff now, feel free to add me on PSN. My name is taswell, yes I did get that from Ryan's Twitter. I thought it was awesome so there. If you want to add me just let me know you're from GB, though I'll probably add you either way.

Well that's it. Kind of long, boring and badly written I know. But I hope you enjoyed it nonetheless. Thanks for reading
