What was they thinking
Started the game thought was good started strange which i like. Went though the tutorial liking it once got more squad members seem to go down hill from there. Either as a 3rd person or tactical would be good, but thix.of both to me just dont seem to gel. Personally i think that should had kept at 3rd person only and would been ok. Controls are standard for a 3rd person shooter so nothing tha makes it stands out. And the 15 hour game play for the campain just dont seem as in depth as other xcoms

Before Natalie and Monk can have an official grand opening for their new PI business, they wind up with two cases. First, there's the murder suspect who won't explain why he was moving a body in a vacant field. Then there's the mass shooter who vanished despite being surrounded by police.

Both of these mysteries are great and kept me engaged the entire way through. The characters and their growth are wonder as well, and the humor had me grinning when I wasn't outright laughing. Fans of the series will love it.

TV shooter Lilly Hawkins gets the scoop of the year, footage of a murder scene. But when she returns to the station her tape is blank. She thinks it is just bad luck until someone starts threatening her to get that tape. What has she stumbled into? The plot of this book is a little thin, but the action more than makes up for it. I also really liked how the characters developed over the course of the novel. I am very anxious to read the next book in what looks to be a great series.

Revenge Is A Dish Best Servered Cold
Shooter- is a great action film. The revenge, the vengenaces, the suspense, the thrills and the action is all great.

The plot: A top Marine sniper, Bob Lee Swagger (Mark Wahlberg), leaves the military after a mission goes horribly awry and disappears without a trace. Swagger is coaxed back into service after high-profile government officials convince him to help thwart a plot against the President of the United States. Swagger realizes he has been betrayed and becomes the target of a nationwide manhunt. Instead of hiding, he seeks revenge against some of the most powerful and corrupt leaders in the free world.

I would reccordmend watching this film.
