Since my last blog I've made some good gaming progress. I finished up my COD run and got the platinum, I had to replay the game again though on hard mode which was a pain in the a$$ because I'd already beat it twice, but it was also really easy and not much of a challenge at all.

I also managed to get the POP platinum trophy, I had them all except speed demon and be gentle with her from a previous run trough. I restarted a file and beat the game in 6 hours 12 minutes with only 41 saves from Elika, the ames much more fun when you play it quickly as the light seed hunting really slows the pace of te ame.

Next, my girlfriend randomly bought me the Wolverine game (cuz she loves me I guess lol) and I was pleasantly surprised, firstly because its a beat em up/hack and slash and secondly its a movie tie-in and they neaarly always suck. Well Wolverines actually alot of fun, the combat is quite complex which takes it a cut above the usual movie tripe. The enemies et progressively tougher and you have to adapt your moves to suit the enemies. I got all but one of the trophies for this game, I just need to beat it on hard mode, I plan on doing tis in the next few days. Overall I'd give the game a 7.8, the graphics are great, the combats fun and the games actually longer than you'd think. The only problem is the repetetiveness of the levels. You dart between jungle setting levels and laboratories constantly so eventually the environments start to get a bit boring.

The final part of my blog is in relation to WWE Legends of Wrestlemania. i've always been a bit of a die hard wrestling fan until recently. I no loner have access to wrestling on TV so I kinda gave up on the sport. However the golden years of wrestling i.e the 90's shaped my childhood quite significantly. Therefore for me LoW was a huge nostalgia trip for me. The game is like a really simplified version of smackdown except with all the old school classic wreslters. The likes of the Rock, Stone Cold, Andre the giant and Hogan make an appearance aswell as many others. Ok, alot of people wont like this game straight off the bat, alot of people didnt used to follow wrestling so will have no interest in the legends roster. Also, the Smackdown diehards will hate the new controls, all moves are mapped to the face buttons, the L's and R buttons play no part in the game.

The gameplay itself is alot of fun, if a bit basic, this is the perfect pick up and play game or a good game to play with a few friends round. The highlight of the games single player mode is without a doubt the Wreslemania World Tour Mode. I loved this! basically the game gives you a load of historic matches that true WWF fans will fondly remember. It then allows you to replay them more or less move for move or you can rewrite history and completely change the outcome. This mode is an interesting feature and for me the best thing about the game. My only criticisms of LoW are thae controls are firstly the controls can be hit and miss. There are so many moves and they're all mapped to the face buttons meaning half the time you'll struggle to actually do what you intended. Also, the campaign mode is on the short side and alot of genuine LEGENDS have been excluded from the roster, I'm talking Mankind, Kane, DX and many others. Despite all this I really enjoyed the game and managed to platinum it in more or less a day. Overall I'd give it a 7.6/10.
