Hey everyone, Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays and such. Everyone tell me what you got and your highlights, ok? If it was giving something, that's cool too!
I didn't know what to expect for mine. I gave my mom and dad a list of like six games and movies and told them to pick one or two. One of them was the AC6 bundle with the flight yoke and throttle. I figured I wouldn't get it and I'd have to buy it with mah own $$$ But sure enough, it was my one and only present from the parents. Er sorry, I also got a pair of Stewie boxers from my mom...:roll: :P Josh got me a cooler for my Wii which at first seemed rather useless, but upon further thought I figured if it saved my Wii from destruction, I'd be happy to have it. How would I ever find another? :lol: Kyle got me the Halo 3 soundtrack, YAY! My aunt/uncle/cousins gave me a 15 dollar gift card for Gamestop, my other uncle gave me a sweet Navy t shirt, and my other aunt/uncle gave me a 25$ gift card to Sears. Not sure what I'll do with it, but I'll figure someting out.
I gave Kyle money to help pay for a cool Halo 3 bag he bought and I got Shooter for Josh. That was more or less all I gave, aside from a stuffed animal dog to a friend of mine as a joke (she wanted a puppy but wasn't allowed so I was like, "Hey I got you a dog...") :P
So AC6 is awesome. Or rather, AC6 using the Ace Edge is awesome (I had already played a lot of it before). What I heard from GS is that the Ace Edge controller makes it fun but hard. That's essentially true, but my theory is that when I finally adjust and get used to it, it'll boost my performance. It's confusing though, cuz it has all the buttons that correspond to the gamepad cousin, and certain buttons just for certain things in the game that you can't do with the set up. For example, forward and backwards on the throttle is boost or brake, and on the gamepad they're the left and right triggers. To do a High-G turn, you hold both triggers and then move, so you can't do it like that with a throttle, it's one or the other, so, you give it it's own button. However, a few of the buttons on the Ace Edge don't do the same thing as the button they correspond to on the gamepad (the buttons that correspond to bumpers don't do what the bumpers do, etc). It's confusing just to explain it, but yeah. It's fun though, and I'm juuuuust starting to get the hang of it. Meanwhile in Assassin's Creed, I'm pending my final assassination becuz I want to hunt down the Templars and Flags before I finish. It's going so-so...It's hard to find a good guide online.
Oh also, I beat CoD4 last night becuz it was Christmas Eve and I always stay up late playing games and watching movies. That game was excellent, and I totally called the ending, getting to shoot him with a pistol. Best part ever...er, All Ghillied Up was better but still, capping that guy while on the ground made my night. Ah and last, I beat Cortana's Meta Game last night with Matt, so I finally got those ten gamerpoints from that. Speaking of which, I hit 5,000 on the nose today. Pretty sweeeeet...
Speaking of Matt, I'm going to his house in VA tomorrow until the 28th, so that's pretty cool. I get to eat at the restaurant he works at and meet some people I've heard about. Unfortunately, I can't take Assassin's down there to show him cuz Kyle will need to return it, and taking the Ace Edge down there is undetermined as of yet...
Well, that's pretty much what I have to say. I feel like I'm leaving something out, but oh well.
Until next time, I've been irmeleeman5995, and that's a mouthful to say!
