Matthew Krueger (10051 KP) rated Twisted Metal in Video Games
Mar 19, 2021
Let The Cars Hit The Floor Reboot
Twisted Metal- not to be confused with "Twisted Metal" is a ps3 vehicle combat. This game serves as a reboot to the franchise.
Gameplay: The game focuses heavily on multiplayer combat, including various online game modes with up to 4 player split-screen and 16-players online (the online gameplay was discontinued in early 2019). For example, the Nuke Mode is a new online game mode where the players choose a faction to play against an opposing faction. In this mode, each faction has a giant metal statue that is being held in the air by a helicopter, which the opposing team must try to destroy. In order to destroy these statues, the player must abduct the enemy team's leader, then sacrifice the leader to a missile launcher that will, in turn, launch a nuclear missile.
The person who sacrifices the leader and launches the missile has to control it to hit the opposing teams statue in the air. In order to win the opposing team has to repeat the process 3 times before the statue is destroyed for a team to win. There are four factions: the Clowns, the Dolls, the Skulls, and the Holy Men. The former having been announced as being inspired by Sweet Tooth and Dollface. The latter are led by Mr. Grimm and the Preacher respectively.
unfortunately this was the last game released in the main series. No new game has been released since 2012. I need my "Twisted Metal".
A great game and a excellent franchise.

GameCritics (290 KP) rated Nidhogg 2 in Video Games
Oct 20, 2017
Nidhogg 2 is a surprisingly short game, but that doesn’t mean it’s not a lot of fun. While the Arcade Mode is rather short at eleven stages, the local and online multiplayer options will keep fans coming back.

Movie Critics (823 KP) rated Unknown (2011) in Movies
May 8, 2017
Unknown's main victory then is in the fact that it is both different and individually satisfying enough from Neeson's similar recent work to recommend it. More than that actually, Unknown is a damn good thriller.

Movie Critics (823 KP) rated Ingrid Goes West (2017) in Movies
Aug 12, 2017
Ingrid Goes West heavily explores obsession, stalker behavior, and the need to be noticed, both on social media and in real life. It also touches on the duality of online personas versus the ones we lead in real life.

Fun online and offline modes (2 more)
Drifting in virtual reality is a blast
Intuitive controls
Lacks charm (1 more)
Painful weapons!
While lacking in the charm department, VR Karts captures the fun and chaos of kart-racing really well in virtual reality.

Back to Morrowind
Morrowind is a fun chapter for The Elder Scrolls Online series. Starting in Seyda Neen you can travel around the isle of Vvardenfell exploring the different house lands and the people around. Whether this is your first time on the isle, or you visited in previous games this is a great expansion.

So so viewing
I had wanted to watch this when it was out at the cinema but never got chance. Having just watched it on Sky movies I'm glad I didn't go to the cinema. The movie really failed to hold my attention and I ended up reading more about it online than watching.really wouldn't recommend this one!

I did enjoy the switch in the online conversations from friendly to flirty to dirty.
Independent reviewer for Archaeolibrarian, I was gifted my copy of this book.
I finished this, which was touch and go for a while, so thats something.
Only Madelyn has a say, which didn't help. Brem doesn't get a say at all and I think (and I know I say this a lot, I KNOW I do!) if he had a say, I would have enjoyed this a tad more.
I did enjoy the switch in the online conversations from friendly to flirty to dirty.
While its pretty obvious who Madelyn is talking to online, the writer of the notes she gets, isn't. I got that wrong! And I did enjoy the fact that Easton216 knew who Madelyn was way before she knew who he was.
It's not a bad book, by any means, but just one that didn't float my boat as much as I wanted it to, and I really wanted it to! It is well written, and I didn't spot any spelling errors. Madelyn has her say in the third person/past tense.
a good nice (sorry!) read
