The Jaguar Journal 3
First of all updates from last week.
-The rain stopped for most of this week but today and yesterday it began again but not as heavy.
-It's not as humid.
-I've met the neighbors next door
-I still have a big crush on the guy next door. "Michael" mmmm
-I have been sunbaking in the backyard by the pool to gain his attention :P
Ok that's enough of the seld endulgent stuff, I don't wanna talk about myself all the time. This week I'm going to discuss some new games first on the list.
Street Figher IV
It has nice art direction, ok sound/music and I understand it has a huge fanbase.
Well I'm just terrible at it, like really terrible. As in I play on easiest and lose terrible. Oh but with challenges I play on normal and do better, I really like the Crimson Viper character too. I've stopped playing for the moment because it's too frustrating and its a game I think I'll return to when I want a challenge.
Empire Total War Demo
Wow long load times but it sure is fun, the graphics are really good, sound is mostly good, gameplay is fun. I am really enjoying the naval battles they are arcade with a hint of realism to keep them fun. It can be a little WOAH to micro alot of ships but it's very rewarding. My history ****s are paying off with this :D I'm "crossing the T" in battles and doing a very good job at blowing up French boats, although I noticed they are really crap and my boats are really cool.
Land warfare is also cool and the little troops look adorable marching around in columns with their little drummers, only to be blown away by a cannon ball :P Cavalry isn't the same now, no more shock and awe, they work better as a mop up unit. Cover works well, as does ballistic trajectory and all that blah blah.
The RTS side of the game is quite nice but I am really looking forward to launch because I looooooove turn based strategy games! I can sit back in my chair with nibbles and not worry about how long I take to decide to raise a tax or take a province.
Dawn of War II
I'm really enjoying this game, some have complained about the lack of base building but I dont mind, Im focussing more on my deployment and tactics than micro'ing farming units and where to build.
MP/Skirmish is very fun and looks to be a good e-sport, I'm having a blast playing as Space Marines.
SP the game feels alot like a point and click adventure like diablo, only with 4 squads not 1 person. You get armor pick ups, stats, etc and it's got my attention and I am having a good time saving the galaxy :P
Further Jaguar Journals
So if anyone has ideas, comments or stuff they wanna see in a Jaguar Journal please leave a comment :P I usually just rant a little about my life or an issue I know, kinda boring I know.
