FS_Metal reviews game number 6

For anyone that keeps up with my blog or anyone that likes my reviews, I just posted up a 6th review. This one is of PREY. I thought it was a hard game to review. On one hand, it has numerous gameplay innovations. On the otehr hand, the shooting mechanics really are not all that great. None the less, I think I did very well on it. I think it is one of my better reviews

 

I am considering adding a section to the FPTE website that is strictly for video game reviews. I have 6 of them now, and I think Guitarking could write some good reviews as well. I would like them to all be formatted the same, so it looks nice and uniform if I do this. What do you think? Would you bother with reading hte reviews that the 2 of us post up on there if we were to add such a section? I mean, it is a gaming site. I want more for people to do there than just read the comic, and there really sin't much right now. Maybe that would be something else for people to look forward to.

 

I have taken into consideration reviewing several other games: Final Fantasy XII, Okami, Shadow of hte Colossus, among others. I doubit I will review any of these 3, though, because I am well aware that my review would sound very biased and I would rate them all a 10. I already have a couple of games that I have rated that highly, and I don't want to be seen as a guy who only reviews games that he is biased about. I want to give fair and honest reviews that are as unbiased and as informative as possible. I want my reviews to be uniform and sound as professional as possible. I hope that I accomplished that, and I think I may have with this new one and Kingdom HEarts: Chain of Memories before it.

 

I am very likely to get a job working at Taco Cabana. Wish me luck. I really need it. IT woulsd be nice, as I do like their food. They have Corona too. I love me some Corona, though I know I cannot drink it while on the job

 

I am sure you already guessed, but I finished PREY. I am not going to bother posting my thoughts. That is why my review exists in the first place

 

I have one other job pending right now. A possible job at Gamestop. Oh I want this one so damn bad that I can almost taste it. I worked there for one season and thought it was alot of fun.

 

Oh. My birthday is coming up in less than a month. June 9th. I am excited about it. I think I am going to get a dual core processor, a new motehrboarda nd a 3 gig stick of ram. I really want to play STALKER: Shadow of Chernobyl. As of right now, my PC barely meets the minimum system requirements, and htat won't fly

 

I am likely to [ick up my paycheck tomarrow. If I can, I will. If I do, I will go see Spiderman 3. I will leave my thoughts on it herefor you all to read. 

From Pong to Eternity - week 7

Well, the comic is seven weeks old. I thought it was about time that we we gave the continuing story a kickstart. We didn't want to do it with some minor or small event either. This weeks comic deals with how Billy got his nickname. It is not alone, however. It is part of a 4 comic set revealing the entire story of what happened.This week's strip merely sets up the flashback for next week, so the reason is not revealed, not yet. GK and I thought it was funny, though, and we hope you like it too. Without further adieu, I present to you this weeks comic: Legend of Fennigan pt. 1

I hope you like it. It is my hope that this 4 part comic will help to deepen the characters of the story while providing good humor. Enjoy ladies and gentlemen. The best is yet to come Twisted Evil

Oh. Feel free to discuss your thoughts and theories on what you think might have happened

From Pong to Eternity week 6

This weeks comic is up http://fpte.50megs.com/frames.htm head on over and check it out. Be sure to let us know what you think because, as the news update indicates, I am quite proud of this one. I, personally, think that it is very funny. It gets everything back in the rails by being centered around Billy and Kain.

Look forward to next week. We have a big surprise in store for you Twisted Evil

Anyway, check it out. Lets us know what you think. Join hte forum. The weekly comic discussion could use people actually discussing it

I've seen Hot Fuzz twice...

and I forgot to write about it. This movie is outstanding. Very funny. IT has alot of action movie cliches, but even those are very well done and highly enjoyable. I would recommend this to any fans of action movies or anyone with a good sense of humor. You are likely to love it. I don't know that it is as goof as Shaun of the Dead, but it is definitely a worthy follow up. Absolutely amazing film and a blast to watch. IT has my highest recommendations

I am searching for another job. The one that I have right now is 45 minutes from my house, and I just cannot afford that. The gas is too much for so little pay. I have a few good leads, so wish me luck. Speaking of which, I am going to a job fair on the 4th or the 5th. I have not decided which. It is just for a grocery store, but it is much MUCH closer to home. With luck, I won't get stuck out in the parking lot. I spent 2 years getting carts out of parking lots, and I never want to do it again.

I am looking for a new college. I read on IGN about a small college in silicon valley that sounds like more me. I am not good if the class is just hte teacher lecturing, me taking notes and studying my notes. I am a much more hands on learner than that. This college had small classes (The article sited 8 people in the one they did the article on) where the teacher works directly with the students. Everyone had drawn out a map of an alien ship for a game they were designing, and they were discussing things such as enemy span points, locked doors and locations of keycards for the previously mentioned doors. Then they split up and worked on the levels,m with the teacher helping each individual student as he or she needed it. That sounds like me. IT also talked about shy people (which I am) and how the school helped them become more active. I want to find something like that, but I do not want to leave Texas for it. IT would be good for me.

FPTE 5 is up

Hey everyone. The comic is a day late. Sorry. I had artists block yesterday and couldn't come up with any good designs for the characters in this strip. Anywa, check out today's comic. I just posted it. IT is the first FPTE side comic. It is called Reality of Turn Based, and it deals with what turn based battles would be like if they were real. Remember to join the forum and tell us all what you think of it.

Another comic update

I am almost finished building the website. I only need to build one more page for it and it wil lbe done. I need to talk to Guitar King before I build the last page, though.

I have drawn the first comic. I cleaned it all up as best as I could in Paint. I do not know photoshop, so I did hte best I could do with what I have./

 

Fear not. It will all be on the web soon
