Game Banter: What were they thinking???

Yes! It is time for another blog for the Game Banter.

This month’s question is “What is the worst game you’ve ever played?”

I took me a while to think of a game that I have played that was really bad. There has been a lot through the years that I could not stand playing. From some of the indie games to games they make about a certain movie. So I thought I would pick a game I have played recently that was really bad. The game I came up with was Onechanbara: Bikini Samurai Squad.

Now when  I first saw this game, I will admit I was very excited to try out they game. I mean, come one who doesn’t love killing monsters with a girl who has basically nothing on?? Well, when i first played it, i was curious on how good it would be. Then as playing it got really old to me. It was the same thing over and over again. I didn’t really like the controls to the game and I thought the camera angles were really bad. After playing about 10- 15 minutes of this game, I turned it off. I was really disappointed on how the game was.

Also when I play a game, I love when i get an achievement. I am not the person who is obsessed with getting them all at once, but I love working on getting them in time. In this game I was really confused on how to get them and what you had to do. That also made another thing about the game that I did not like. If i feel like killing zombies, I would rather play some resident evil or some Left for Dead than this game.

Game Banter: Gaming through the years

I am back with this months question for Game Banter. It has been a while but I am glad I am back writing. This months question is ” What was the game that made you a gamer?”

I have been playing games ever since I was young. If I had to think about what games got me into gaming, there are a few. There are only two that really got me into it. The first one is Zelda: A Link To The Past. I remember going over to my step dads for the weekend and would play it all the time. I loved it and is still one of my favorite games. At that time, I was kinda into games but not really a “gamer.” You can say it kinda kick started my love for games.

Then years went by and I fell in love with another game. That game was Diablo 2. My step daddy Steve showed me this game and I loved it from the first minute. We had two computers right next to each other, so that we could play together. We also helped each other level up and did cow runs together. As soon as I got home we would get on the computer and play Diablo. It was a great time for us to bond and do something that we both love to do. We would alwasys have a blast playing games together. Thanks to him I love playing video games and can’t wait to show my son video games when he gets older.
