For the last two and a half decades, the first-person shooter has been a mainstay in the video game world. Never shying away from a bit of controversy, they're typically games about killing hundreds of bad guys in sequence on a Rambo-like rampage through levels.

But shooters aren't all bloody rampages without meaning, style, or substance. In case you're not too well-versed in the genre, or just need some good recommendations, here are a selection:

The Telegraph have put together a list of the best shooting games, from the bombastic gorefests to smaller indie affairs.

My favorite Assassin
I love the world Sarah creates! Fae, witches, demons, a prince, assassins, and magic! Throne of Glass is the start to this amazing series and it takes a little to get into it because there is so much you need to know about her past and all the characters and the world. The series gets better with each book you read.

The Elevator is Whatttt??
The Big Bang Theory is one of my favorite shows. I discovered this show later than most, I think about 5 years ago. I thought being called Big Bang Theory that they would talk about evolution a lot, and others. But I was surprised that they didnt really at all. I love the partnership between all of the guys, and the teasing back and forth amongst friends.

At many points this movie feels like a Lifetime original movie. The characters consistently make decisions that are beyond stupid, stupidity that can't be reasoned away by the "in-the-moment" fear of the situation. It's like they have no sense of self preservation. They run around screaming out for others when there are bad guys actively looking for them, and don't shoot the person that is trying to kill them when they have them at gunpoint.

Surprised you gave it a 4 it was awful even the strangers act like they dont give a crap if they die. A family that deserved to die with their stupidity. And Im pretty sure if the poloce get a call about murderers they would send more than 1.

I received this book from NetGalley for review.

A thoroughly enjoyable read. The story has a good pace for the designed reader age, not overly complicated and yet still catches you into reading more. The characters are interesting, rounded and entertaining ... even the bad guys had a reason for being so. The cover art is gorgeous and a perfect front page for the story.

I would like to read more of Millie's future adventures with magic.

Album Favorite

"Scary Monsters isn't my favourite Bowie record although it's still pretty good - I think I just had to put him in because he's one of the coolest guys ever to have existed. That was the main reason. But of course there's great songs from every period with Bowie and there aren't many people you can say that about. My favourite Bowie album is Station To Station, but it doesn't have an illustrated sleeve and I've got that theme now."
