Fable 3 Review



Ok, I know Fable 3 has been around for a couple of years now, and most of the hype is gone. But for a WoW addict that is looking for something new I picked it up. I’ve never really been a big fan of multi player games; I much prefer a solo game so I don’t have to depend on anyone but myself.  Fable 3 gave me the option to either play online with others or by myself.  The only thing that I didn’t like was that I had to sign up for an Xbox Live account to play, probably wouldn’t have been so annoying if we actually owned an Xbox, but we don’t.

The first play through of the game I tried to do everything right, and not kill too many people. In the end I made some good decisions and some bad decisions. The second time I said screw it with being nice and did everything wrong. I have to say it was more fun being bad then it was being good, especially since by the end of it was sitting on 20 million gold.

This game has a thrilling storyline, that stays the same but also changes with each decision you make. And don’t let the trailer fool you, in the beginning you get to choose between being the prince or the princess. I of course chose the princess, since I don’t care for playing a male character if I can help it. The graphics aren’t cartoony like Warcraft but more realistic like the Final Fantasy games, and pretty much any computer would be able to handle them, as long as they were updated in the last 2 years.

Overall I really enjoyed this game, but I wouldn’t recommend it for anyone under the age of 17, since it contains horrible language, sex, and prostitution.  I do think this will be my in-between game to play, which will have to wait to be played again til I am done with Diablo 3 and decided on the next game to play.

Nintendo 3Ds Thoughts


I just upgraded my Nintendo Dsi to a Nintendo 3Ds a couple of weeks ago. There are defiantly somethings I don't like about it and some that I love.

I never really had a issue with my Dsi, it was way better then the original Ds that I had for years, but I wanted to play that new Kid Icarus game. The 3Ds setup is similar to the Dsi, a bit faster but just as sleek. The menu is nicer, with being able to change it from a single line of addons to two rolls or addons, so no more long hunts for the one app I'm looking for. 

Also the actual 3D feature is a bit annoying and starts to give me a headache after a while, so I normally just leave it off. The graphics are great, better then the Dsi but not as great as the PsP Vita. And  the Ds games don't fit the 3Ds's screen, which is a little wider then the Dsi's screen. But I still kinda miss being able to play my Game Boy Advance games on it, and kinda glad I still have the original for them. 

I don't really play it that much but then I didn't really play the others, Warcraft kinda took up all my time. With out it I think I'll finally find more time to play it.

Diablo 3 BETA



The Diablo 3 BETA came to a end yesterday and I realized I have yet to do a review over the game.



I hear a lot of people who are diehard Diablo 1 & 2 players hate Diablo 3, for what ever reason. But just as many can't wait for it hit on May 15. I'm one of the ones that can't wait, and it's not because I'm not a diehard Diablo 1 & 2 player, it's because we have waited so long for it to hit the shelves.

Diablo 3 isn't not like the others and it's far better then the first two. One- the graphics are far better. Two- the talent system is far easy to understand and is not set to "You Have To Have This Talent". Three- it's awesome that we get to craft our own armor. And four- the story we love continues! And that's not to mention the real money auction house feature.

Even though the BETA did limit the Acts and Quest we were allowed to see and do, but from what I saw they are very similar to the other two games, with Act one being the shortest time to play. And there were consent changes to the talent system but no matter what they changed it too the talents themselves were just as great, like the Witch Doctor's spider jar throwing talent.

I played both the first and second game but I never finished the first, since my sisters and I were always fighting over who's turn it was to play and I was knocking at final door in the second when I went off to basic training. I love these games and no matter what people say about them and why their horrible compared to the first two, I'm still going to be online as soon as it's live and not stop playing 'till I have finished it at least once.
