Skyrim

FUS RO DAH!
(those who have played the game will understand this)

90/100
The Elder Scrolls V, Skyrim. Free world roaming and quests like no other. Play the hero, or the villain. It is your choice and your way of going through the game. In this game you are from a different type of people, the Dragonborne those who can learn shouts like the dragons and are able to take their souls as you defeat them one by one. You must rise to the top as a hero and put a name for yourself. Side quests begin to flood your mind and before you know it you have played over 12 hours in one day. You truly get lost in a world like Skyrim especially when you have things to do that coincide with your main quest. You get side tracked and end up joining The Dark Brotherhood instead of becoming the hero everyone talks about. Clans roam in Skyrim that you can either join or not take them into account. Once you join one it is pretty hard to find the others who will let you join. For example the Thief Guild and The Dark Brotherhood let you join both and therefore you can go from one to another. I would suggest completing one at a time though because then your quest list will probably be as huge as mine. Skill levels are also important because if you do not develop them your fighting skills pretty much go down the drain.

Skyrim includes a lot of fun things for you to do and a lot of secrets for you to find. With the new Legendary Edition of Skyrim you can level up almost indefinitely by making your skills Legendary and having to start all over again. I have not seen any improvement in having your skills be Legendary though, but I will look into it even more. I am also going to start another blog where I post some of the secrets and tips I have for you guys out there playing Skyrim this is a review blog afterall.

If any of you who read this have any suggestions on what game I should review next feel free to comment down below :)

I hope I see you guys next time here on A Gamers' View

Paper Mario Sticker Star

80/100
"It's a Me Mario!" We have heard this line many many times before. From a seemingly small 8-bit game to a handheld system game with stickers. What a great change. Paper Mario Sticker Star the 4th addition to the Paper Mario franchise has become a big hit. 

Mario goes on a new adventure after the parade gets wrecked and finds himself peeling things off of the world. The stickers are used as attack powers and can be used to attack enemies. Although this Paper Mario kind of altered its way from the regular RPG style gaming it is still a great game. There are no level ups in this game, but stickers do help a lot. 

There are three types of stickers you can get. A weakened version, a normal, and a special sticker. Don't waste your time trying to use as little bit of stickers as you can because in this game, the stickers are plentiful. So waste away! x) 

The storyline is pretty constant and our friend goes on a great adventure. I won't give out any spoilers though. I will recommend you buy the game and try it out. It has been a great adventure and I hope you guys enjoy it too!

All in all I would give this game an 80/100 it's great, but it is missing some things. Like the RPG features. Nonetheless it is still a fantastic game!


Here are a few screenshots taken from IGN I hope they don't mind x)

I hope you enjoyed this review.

Call of Duty: Black Ops 2

85/100
The newest hit in the Call of Duty Franchise. Obviously I had to try it out to review it so I did. I must say it is a pretty good game. The campaign has some mystery into it and it also hints of a new game coming out at the very end. Call of Duty Black Ops 2 is a first person shooter most people play it for online though. Although Xbox seems to be having about as much lag as Playstation 3 I would say this game overall online deserves a 70/100 if you play for enjoyment. The campaign so far has followed the story from the original Black Ops to some extent. It was a very anticipated game and I can see why, but personally I think they should have held it off and made it just a little bit better. The new futuristic sort of view really appeals to me though the guns feel and look nice. All in all this game deserves a 85/100 I have yet to try it out on the WiiU.

Super Mario RPG 3

85/100

One of the most enjoyable games I have ever played through! This game talks about an epidemic going on in the Mushroom Kingdom and Mario and Luigi are hired to find out what's going on. They find out that Fawful us the one behind it all. He had been selling Toads mushrooms known as Blorb Shrooms that inflated them and made them roll around. Soon after Bowser shows up and gets beaten and thrown out of the castle. He finds Fawful in the forest where he holds a mini giveaway and hands him a vaccuum mushroom. Bowser sucks in all of the characters in the Mushroom Kingdom including the princess, Mario, Luigi, Toadsworth, and many toads. You go on playing as Bowser trying to gain his Castle back from Fawful. I don't want to spoil the game too much so let's talk about the mechanics. It is basically your original RPG with leveling up and things like that. This RPG has a unique way of integrating the double screen on the DS by allowing players to see when Bowser is attacking or when the Bros. are. The thing that stumps me though and makes me lower the rating is the fact that the maps inside Bowser look less thought out/more 2D than Partners In time inside Yoob.
Other than that this game is fantastic! I give it an 85/100.

I hope you enjoyed this review see you next time on a Gamers' View :)

Pokemon Black and White 2 Review


Mystery Review


Pokemon: Black and White 2 Review

You guessed right :) The most recent games in the Pokemon series. This game is just basically an expansion pack to Black and White on the Nintendo DS. The gameplay is the same. The storyline for the most part is the same. The only difference is the beginning where you start off in the game. In the first Pokemon Black and White you start out in a town named Nuvema Town. However that's not the case in the sequel of these games. Your Journey starts in a town called Aspertia City, located in the southwestern Unova Region. This is not the only difference though! There are new locations that were previously not available to go through such as the sewers in Castelia City. The Pokedex was also, for a lack of a better word, refurbished and made to register 300 Pokemon from the start. It also allows you to capture Pokemon from previous generations from the start. One unique thing that caught my attention was the time frame between Black and White and the sequel. Black and White 2 takes place 2 years after the first one (weird) Cheren Became Gym leader of the Aspertia City gym and Bianca became the Professor's personal delivery girl haha well research person. I really liked the whole storyline though and how the characters show up again. All in all I give Pokemon Black and White 2 an 80/100 I don't really like sequels.

80/100

Super Mario Rpg Review

92/100

 Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars

This game has stayed on my top list for a long time. It is a good game. Released in 1996 I didn't play it until a year after it's release. Well I didn't really play it since I was only 3 It was more of watching my mom play. If an adult is able to play and enjoy the game it must mean something. The game mechanics are kind of like those of Final Fantasy, it shouldn't be of any surprise though considering the fact that there is a Final Fantasy secret in the game and Square Enix was in partner with Nintendo to bring this game to life. The story is the usual one at first with Mario rescuing the Princess, but it then turns into a twist when an evil sword plumits through the sky and destroys the star road (wish road). Mario is sent on a new adventure to collect 7 stars and repair the road so wishes can come true once again. You get to choose 3 people in your party to fight. There are 5 characters total in the game and all gain experience when you fight even if they aren't in the battle. All in all I give this game a 92/100 there are some parts that were a little too difficult.

Introduction

Introduction

Video Games. What is there to say about them? I have a passion for games. I have been playing since I was 3 years old that's a well 15 years! After discovering blogging just a few months ago (sounds like I've been living under a rock) I finally found the courage to try it out.

At the moment I may not be the most entertaining blogger nor the most experienced. So I encourage you to accompany me as I get all of this straightened out and more organized. :)

I have played well over 300+ games I can't name them all, but I can certainly name a lot of my most favorite games like Super Mario RPG: legend of the seven stars, Mario Kart, Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time, Legend of Zelda Majora's Mask, should I go on?

Many thanks to whoever views this page and starts to follow my blog I hope you have a wonderful day, oh and here's a picture of my favorite game of all time :)

 

I know I mentioned it, but if you didn't know what the game looked like well there it is :) it will be the game I review first since it's the game I know most about and just recently replayed it. Anyway goodbye for now!
