Video Game Review: Pokemon Shield

This post is overdue but here it is. I am a long time Pokemon fan going all the way back to Red and Blue for Gameboy. However Yellow would be the first one I would own fore Gameboy Color. Anyways I couldn't wait to get my hands on a new Pokemon game for Nintendo Switch. The game is set in the Galar region which is like the Great Britain of the Pokemon world. I really thought the game looked great....from the NPCs, the environments, and of course the Pokemon. I found the battle animations to be decent.....I mean they looked better than Pokemon Stadium's animations. One of the major beefs many of the fans had with the game is they cut out like half of the known Pokemon from the other games. I mean that didn't really bother me that much as I'm more of a original 151 guy. Throughout my journey I was constantly trying to figure out what type an enemy Pokemon was. The great thing about this game is that it reminds you what the enemy type is and what moves are Super ef...

My Favorite RPG's of all time

1.        Final Fantasy X-This should come as no surprise. FFX is a top 3 game of mine all time, so this was a no brainer. FFX has an incredible story, great characters and fun combat. It’s a turn based RPG meaning the fights can really take a long time. 2.        Pokemon Heart Gold- PHG is imo the best Pokemon to date. It’s got added features of GBA and DS pokemons. There’s also 16 gym leaders, rival fights, Elite 4 round 1 and 2, and Ash Kethum(RED) at the end. 3.        Paper Mario-This is a special game. Its inspired by Super Mario RPG(go figure). Its just as good if not better. 3 sequels to the Mario RPG extravaganza. The game is pretty challenging, as you rescue Princess with a party of fellow Mushroom Kingdom characters. 4.        Pokemon Yellow-This game gets the nod over Red and Blue due to its addition of Pikachu following you mostly. Also you c...

Video Game BLog- Pokemon (Gotta Catch Em All)

If you didn’t know, I am a big Pokemon fan. However Pokemon has started to lose its luster. Pokemon is an RPG that gained popularity in Japan and other areas of the world in the late 90s. I’m going to focus primarily on the Video games, even though there is a TV show and card game.             Pokemon is an RPG(Role Playing Game). You play as a young boy(or girl in newer ones). Your character doesn’t fight or get stronger, instead Pokemon fight your battles. They have different types such as Fire, Water, Electric, Rock, Psychic, and a few more. They also learn moves that have different elemental types. You basically just train them and try to beat Gym Leaders, which are bosses. Then you challenge the Elite 4 which are like the final boss. In the first Pokemon versions, Red, Blue, and Yellow; you had to fight your rival at the end of the game.             I really loved ...

Video Game Blog: FPS's vs. RPGs

It's been a while since i've done a video game blog but here it goes. Black Ops II seems to represent why i love First Person shooters. Its action packed, and isnt hard to get into. I have absolutely loved the COD series ever since CoD MW2.  Its not the only FPS i've played since getting my PS3. I have also really enjoyed Killzone 2 and 3 and Resistance 1 and 2. I liked Killzone alot more than Resistance though. The online play for most of these games has been simply extradinary! Ah yes the Role Playing Games. I used to be a huge RPG fan ....and well to some degree I still am. I have really gotten into Mass Effect 3 and 2 this year. Those games are really dope. Not dope meaning dope but dope meaning DOPE. However Final Fantasy is the RPG that really got me into the genre. But the Final Fantasy games have been goin downhill like nobodies business....I think FFX was a classic, and FFXII was decent.....but FF 13 was a crime aagaisnt humantity. Sure it looked great...b...
