I ended up receiving Devil May Cry last Friday and finishing it over the weekend. For being a few years old, its still a fun game. Although on normal mode, it was just to tedious at times. So after restarting, I went with the Easy Automatic Mode and the fun factor increased immensely. I really like the fact that I could fight with a variety of swords and guns. The plot just didn’t seem as good as I thought it was going to be though. It started out great, but the rest of the story just didn’t seem intertwined in the gameplay until I reached the last fourth of the game. Anyway, definetly a game worth renting if your a gamer.
Towards, the end of this week I should be getting Devil May Cry 2. I have heard and read that it was not a great sequel, but I wanted to give it a try anyway to follow along with the story. Maybe, its not as bad as most of the reviews make it out to be.
Lately, it seems the game market is extremely devoid of any good co-op playable games. However, every now and then I am able to find one with my brother that we both like and is fun to play. So the other night we rented Dragon Ball Z: Sagas from Blockbuster. Overall, its a very fun action game and closely follows the Dragon Ball Z storyline (it even includes clips from the cartoon). There are some awkward and annoying camera issues (lack of control, enemies off screen and attacking, etc.), but those issues can easily be overlooked after you get used to it. Most of the time you are each playing a control, but with some bosses you get to swap with the second player after a certain time so you essentially take turns beating up on the boss. This can be very challenging and annoying at times and yet still fun, all at the same time. If your a fan of the cartoon, then you will definetly like this game.
On another note, I have the oppurtunity to rent a bunch of movies until the June 23rd due to a mishap with my brother’s account. You see he canceled his movie pass with Blockbuster over two months ago, but for some reason they decided to up his subscription rate to three movies at a time and continue to charge him. He didn’t realize this until this weekend and was credited back the $60.00. However, he gets to continue to use the pass until it expires again. So I have watched Boogeyman, In Good Company, Assault on Precinct 13, and Suspect Zero over the past few days and will be getting some more movies I have been meaning to watch later tonight on the way home from work. I’ll post my thoughts on the movies I have seen so far tomorrow for those interested.
Things have been fairly good this week, too. We went ahead and purchased a trundle bed from Haverty’s to get ready for the addition to the family in the fall. School also started this week and Linear Elementary Algebra is fairly easy to learn so far. I’m sure it will get more complicated as most math courses do though. For now though, I’m heading home to relax and watch some more movies.
