A Faceless Kamakaze

Hey, guys! I'm fresh off My top Artists and Bands blogs and I wasn't sure what to blog about so I'm taking a hint from my good bud grunt1096 and doing a couple of mini reviews tonight! So lets get it going, shall we?

First Up....... CD Review:

Faceless by Godsmack:

First off I have to thank grunt again for introducing me too Godsmack. I bought this album on Itunes for only $6.99 and its one of the best CD deals I have ever gotten. This is just one hell of a Hard Rock Album. Almost every song on it is great or amazing and even the digital photo booklet was cool to look at. This album is constantly in your face and never lets up, Sully is amazing as usual in the vocal arena, and unlike most CD's the album is full of good songs not just one or two. Some of the standout songs are: "Straight Out of Line" (my personal favorite), "I Stand Alone", "I Am", "Faceless", "Changes", "Releasing The Demons" and "I F***ing Hate You". Overall this is an amazing Hard Rock that I would recommend to anyone that is a Hard Rock Fan.

My Score: 9.6/10.0.

Game Review:

Call of Duty: World at War for the Xbox 360:

I loved this game. It makes incredible use of the Call of Duty 4 graphics engine and looks incredible. The gameplay and controls are air tight (as they always are in Call of Duty games). The campaign is incredibly intense,especially the Marine portion where you run into the Bonzai Japanese attackers that will rush you and stab you with their bayonette's. The intensity is incredible and I enjoyed every heart pounding minute of it. Oh and when you finish the campaign you get to the best part of the game, Nazi Zombies. this mode has incredibly replayability and is good gory fun. I did however have a few issues with the game. First off the Multiplayer portion is good,but the matchmaking system has to many problems. Every game I have played on pits you with all the n00bs and you are pitted against the higher leveled player making for poorly balanced matches. Also the enemy A.I. is not the sharpest on the lower difficulty settings,but if you crank it up to Veteran the enemy will do nothing,but spam you with grenades and make it impossible to complete. Overall this is a great WWII,but its not the best in the series.

My Score: 9.1/10.0.

So guys those were my reviews, I hope you liked them. I will be writing a full review for COD WAW in the coming days so check it out if you want to. (Please do) :P Thanks for reading guys. :D

This blog is dedicated to my mom and all other mom's on this Mother's Day. :)
