Christmas Guide 2014

Well now, it's about time for Christmas and it's almost about one thousand views in my blogg, which I'm thankful for past thanksgiving. With that, also comes games that have been released and a prices go down to sucker parents to buy shovel-were. This is where the buyers guide comes in, unless it recommends another Sonic game. You're better off playing the lotto when it comes with sonic, since Sega started off as a rival to Nintendo since the creator was kicked out from their casino.

Super Smash Bros for Wii U
      For anyone who a BIG fan of Sakuri's party fighting game, this is the game for you. While the 3DS version is an ok single player experience, I personally do NOT see why anyone would go back to that port of the game. However, the Ethernet battles add replayiblity, especially when all of your friends are distant from one another. While this game may have it useless modes, it's not as pointless as the modes found in the 3DS version. And as this will be the last smash bros game Sakuri will be working on, this COULD be the last good game of the franchise, Ala Mario Party, as the games after the forth installment became mediocre. I recommend getting this over the 3DS port since Mewtwo is the only DLC character. Should have used the DLC cost idea from Skullgirls, Sakuri. Better than ripping off Angry Birds, I will tell you that...

Shadows of Maldor
     This game is Sandbox game of the year for a good reason: it ups Assassin's Creed games very easily with it worked-in Arkham fighting system. Also when the player falls by one of the monsters in the game, time passes as the monsters actually get promoted, making the game fairly harder. Whenever the gamer is a fan of the Lord of the rings books/movies or not, this game is  a nice experience. Later on, they can branded to force the creatures on the player's side, so the game gets very tactical in the middle of the game. The player can work up sleeper agents to take over and take out the line of commands within their own system. While some parts of the game can be repetitive, I recommend this game, but for PC users on steam, make sure your system can run the game.


Pokemon X/Y OR Pokemon AlphaRuby/OmegaSaphire 
   Pokemon Remakes can be either a hit or miss. For example FireRed/LeafGreen ended up a disappointing remake, as while it did fix the glitches in the gameplay and adds balances, it is disappointing in the end as its added unwanted difficulty as some Pokemon where nerfed thanks to the special status. Meanwhile Pokemon Soul Silver and Heart Gold is the best remakes as it adds the last gen Pokemon plus the ones in current,and keeps the huge after game proton of the past. Where dose Alpha Ruby and Omega Saphire stand? In between the two games, of course. While it doesn't change some of it's past problems, it adds elements from X and Y with Mega-Evolutions with new ones as well. It may not be as an awesome remake as HG/SS, but if the player has already got Pokemon X/Y, get this game. However, there are some disappointing elements like no more red head in the game. Sadness...

Shovel Knight
     For those hardcore players who didn't get enough hard gameplays of the past, this Inde-delight is the game for you. It mixes up elements from past games like Mega-man, Zelda 2, and Ducktales puts them into this tittle. But even without the nostalgia, this game can be great for those who need that platforming itch. It dose abandon the annoying and dated life system and instead stabs shovel knight right in the wallet with a Dark Souls like system, where the players have to get their money back when they die. While it can be frustrating at points, this is a game for hardcore players. The cgame is also available for every system, so pick their poison.


The Nintendo Wii U
     Yes, it's been two years sine the game system has been released and since some of the games have been sliced to 30 bucks, including the wonderful 101, now is the perfect time to buy a Wii U. There's also games for the system now unlike the Xbone games which ended up being disappointing. If you're too poor to buy the bundle, anyone can buy a refurbished Wii U for only two hundred dollars, saving around one hundred dollars so you can buy the accessories and perhaps two thirty dollar games. And since the Wii U is backward-compatible with Wii games, The choice is never been better....


Aliens Issolation
    While Colonial Marines ended up to be one of the worst games ever behind other bad games, this game decided to wipe the slate clean by making it close to Amneisa than an actual shooting stupid game. Thanks to Creative Assembly who also remade Strider and Killer Instinct, this game is a horror hit. While the game is horribly padded with ice breakers within the story like bioschock, it is a experience that both  the gamer fans and the horror fans both been itching for from the series. Available for most system platforms.

Well, those are my recommendations, however, I personally know that I probably missed something along the lines of Xbone and the Playstation 4. Some of the games are just simple reports of hit games like Sleeping Dogs or the last of us. And for the last time, do not get Sonic Boom! You would be the worst parent of all time. There are tons of reviewers AND critics that has panned the game:

-- Brutal Moose
-- Nintendo Fan FTW
-- Projared
--  SomeCalledMeJohnny

Excuse me while I blacklist the annoying deviant-Art fan-boys...
