A few days have passed since my latest blog entry. Don't get me wrong, I wanted to write a few stories of my everyday life but college is quite exhaustive. I'm back to my old friends: calculus and physics. When you combine the two the amount of time left is pretty much laughable. Without taking into account the
other 4 subjects I'm talking. So as any other guy who enjoys playing video games (Personally I don't like the term "Gamer") I've devoted my spare time to games. Recently I bought Braid: everything the press said, true. The game is quite immersive and the time manipulation mechanic works perfectly so perfect I want to use it in my everyday life, especially when solving math problems. Rewinding time beats the hell out of erasing.Back to Braid, some of the puzzles found on the game are way too difficult but after a few minutes of quite reasoning everything falls into its place. I enjoyed picking up every single puzzle piece -the stars are a whole blog entry-, yes; I finished the game and find all the conspiracies surrounding the Manhattan Project quite interesting. Also I've been playing GWRE, CoD 4, GTA IV, Brawl and Lego Star Wars: The Complete Saga. Oh, I played The Force Unleashed demo and think there is room for improvement, the apprentice doesn't feel like a character it’s more like a moving block , at least that's the feeling I get when he 's slashing down his enemies, there is no emotion, but maybe that's just me nitpicking.
I hope this week I have more free time as next week I start exams and not much time left to play or visit the site when you’re dealing with multiple integrals. Apart from that nothing interesting has happened in my life. Apart from the fact that I'm still bummed at the Olympics, don't get me wrong I like China and all but I think some of the events were tweaked towards China's benefit.
See You Around,
Nick.

Mind blowing! as if blowing everything in the game wasn't enough

When I first downloaded the demo on live I wasn't quite sure this game would made my cut, but after I rented it I knew I had to buy. As most of you know the battlefield series stands out for its multilayer faction of the game. BF Bad Company changes ...

Best in series?, yes but expected a bit more

Apart from all the things already said by many of the reviewers out, this game just rocks.Nintendo threw in some new characters, yes Snake is in the game as well as Sonic but I hoped more new characters were introduced not in the form of clones that is. Not satisfied ...

Back to basics
(WII)
When i first hear Mario Kart was coming to the Wii I felt a bit strange since I didn't like Mario Kart Double Dash as much as I like Mario Kart DS, if you ask me; I'm all into the one character per Kart gameplay, so at first with the ...
