Skyward Sword...wow.

This game is blowing my mind right now.
I'm not one to brag about my video game skills, but I consider myself an advanced gamer.
Now with that in mind, let me tell you, there are parts of this game where it really tests your skills and nerves.

As some of you may know, Skyward Sword is motion controlled with the Wii Remote Plus. Now you may think, "Oh I can just wiggle the remote back and forth as fast as I can and I can kill anything."

You couldn't be further from the truth.

Enemies are smart in this game, and they learn your style of attack so that you have to completely rework your plan of attack. Talk about engaging your mind.

I logged 11 hours in to this game....in one day...and one session. haha. Now I didn't play 11 hours straight, I did take a few breaks, but the system was on for 11 hours straight. Just goes to show ya that the old Wii can take it all, even this high end video game.

A video on my first impressions will come in a few days. (Maybe Friday?)

If you own a Wii and are wanting a good game to play, you NEED to get this game. You will not be disappointed.

May the Triforce be with you,

Super Mario 3D Land? Yes Please.

If you haven't heard, you are hearing it now.
If you don't own a 3DS yet, it's about time to shell out some money to get one.

Tomorrow, November 13th, Super Mario Land 3DS is getting released here in the good ol USA.


Yes, this is the NA boxart. Just from the boxart, you can tell this is going to be a game that features at least one blast from the past. The long sought after Tanooki Suit. Yes, it is true. Mario dons the Tanooki Suit for the first time since Super Mario Bros. 3 on the NES. Talk about a hiatus.

Personally, I dunno if I can wait for Christmas for this bad boy. I want to get my hands on it as soon as possible so I can preview it, play it, and review on my YouTube Channel. (TGameNTech)

Below are a couple more screen shots of the game:



Talk about glorious!!









As you can see, this game looks amazing on the 3DS. In some of the stills, it looks a little grainy, but while in motion, this game is just beautiful. It's really amazing to see how a game like this (looks and gameplay) can be played on a hand held system. Makes me thing back to the days of the Gameboy Color and just to think of how far it has come....wow.

There are some power ups that I didn't mention, because I don't want to spoil anything major. But I would definitely suggest buying this game. If you don't own a 3DS and are on the fence about getting one, now is the time to purchase. Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D is out there, which was amazing. Mario Kart 7 is coming to the 3DS soon, as well as many other great games.

Here is a new trailer of the game that is being featured at a launch event in NYC.
There you have it folks. A great game, being released tomorrow.
Let me know below if you are going to pick it up!
Thanks for reading!

Video Games...

I miss them. I miss being able to spend countless hours just mindlessly pressing buttons and what not....

Actually not really.

Not gonna lie though, every now and then I do just want to sit down and play a nice round of Smash Bros, but it just seems like I am too busy anymore to do it. (or too lazy to go get the wii, hook it up, and gather some people).
Meh.

All I know is, Skyward Sword is coming out in less than 20 days and I am pumpppeddd. Expect to see many blogs about it. haha.

As for Zelda and Zelda II.....they are still sitting the corner, laughing at me because I haven't finished them yet. (Zelda II because of just ridiculous difficulty and Zelda just because I didn't finish it during Fall Break.)

Are any of you out there in the same boat as me? Are you just so busy that you don't have time for Mario's warp piped adventures? It is indeed a sad thing, but I guess real life takes priority over video games....sometimes. ;)

Oh well. Hopefully I can write again soon, about some video game. Maybe an iOS game? Angry Birds? Hmmmm. Love me some birds killin pigs.

Your Bird Hurler,
Tyler
