Call of Duty Black Ops 2

The moment we've all been waiting for has arrived; COD Black Ops 2 is out! I recently played this new Treyarch game hoping it would be a major upgrade from the first Black Ops, and i can honestly say i was astonished. First of all, the zombies; they're extremely and addictingly fun! You dont have to waste a lot of money opening map doors and everything is closer. There's also a huge bonus where you and your teammate on co-op share money in a way. As in when you shoot, they got money as well. I like how you dont have to run across the map to find the mystery box because it stays in one are. My personal favorite was the farm stage. It's also crazy how the zombies come from all over the place, so you gotta watch your back. I also like how you can skip rounds, because when youre really good, the last thing you want to do is start off at round 1 when you know you can  easily survive until round 30. Next, i want to talk about the split screen; it was something way too different. I personally like the way you create a class in the first Black Ops better. The wildcards are pretty helpful though, such as having a primary weapon as your secondary. It took a while to get used to this new menu, but i wasn't a big fan of it. The graphics in general are great. The campaign was something i didnt really do a lot of because the zombies and multiplayer was just too tempting. But the little i played, it seems to be pretty intense. Im hoping the story line is epic and have a great ending. The online gaming is great and classicly fun like the other Call Of Dutys. This game is highly recommended and an upgrade from the first Black Ops.

Metroid Fusion

I hope most of you are aware with the Metroid series, so in this blog, i'm going to talk about one of my personal favorites, Metroid Fusion. Metroid Fusion seems to take place after Super Metroid for the SNES. The story is something totally different to what previous Metroid games have and is still one of the funnest. Having a computer navigate you around is pretty cool at first, but can get annoying when he wants you to keep going back and forth the sectors. But it makes up for it by providing fun boss fights and awesome new weapons. One of the scariest things is when you encounter the SA-X clone. The X parasite infected her suit and weapons so the scientists in the Galactic Federation had to remove pretty much everything you had. It was later in the game that they found out that the X are able to mimic their prey, and since your weapons had X parasites in them, a clone was made of you known as the SA-X. There is one extremely scary encounter where you literally have to shoot at it with ice missiles and run before it defrosts. I would shoot like 5 missiles just because i was scared even though i only needed one. One of the things i most liked about it is that you once again face an original enemy, Ridley. My favorite weapon throughout the entire game would have to be the newly added defusion missiles that charge and explode in an encompassing ice cloud, freezing all enemies in range. The overall game has great graphics, an epic story line, action packed boss battles, and puzzles that are fun to figure out. Out of all the Metroid series, this one is one of the best in my opinion.
