Hello and today I am celebrating a one year anniversary of Firemoon gaming (“Slightly” belated), and I’m doing a review on Okami HD. Sorry for yet another Hiatus, I am terrible at time management. Well, time to leap before I think of doing anything else straight onto this review.

27th of March, 2018- Dead Rising 3 Review

*Image gotten from wikipedia

Hello, and today I am going to do a review on Dead Rising three. Keep in mind this is a Rated M game, so anybody who is not legally over the age of seventeen (In the US at least, I do not have a clue for other countries age restrictions) shouldn’t play this. I do have to say, this game has a special place in my heart, as this was my first rated M game that I purchased as a seventeen year old, around two weeks ago. Ah, the joys of being 17. I can now waltz right into rated R movies (Purchasing a ticket of course), and N-17 movies. I can also get M games. I did gloss over I turned 17 a while back, so now I almost have free reign. I just have to wait a year then here I come Ao. Not that I would actually play an Ao game. I am getting off topic so here I go.

Dead Rising three is a Survival shooter game where you play as Nick Ramos, a young mechanic who is a survivor to the zombie apocalypse. Unlike previous games in the series (Or so I am told) you have a lax time limit to do different missions in the story. You can decide to do classic difficulty from the get go in nightmare mode, so if you have nerves of steel you can be a maniac if this is your first dead rising game. In this game the ultimate goal is to escape los Peridos in this hack and slash title. Before I even go to different mechanics and pros and cons, I do have to say with what I have experienced so far, I would give this game a 9.5 out of 10. I have experienced little to no problems on my part. There sadly is no major glitches (using sadly loosely), and this is an extremely well made game. There is no BS mechanics I have presently found. If I found a problem it was quickly resolved with this game, as it was me being an idiot. Now on to individualities.

Soundtrack- Honestly I can’t say much about the soundtrack. I was too immersed in gameplay to even notice it. Something similar to the sound track, the voice actors. I found the voice actors perfect for this game. In all honesty, if someone has an annoying voice it can ruin something easily. Even monotone voice is better than high pitched or annoying for me, and I hate monotone voices. I won’t really rate the soundtrack because it doesn’t matter, I get too caught up in the game to care about the sounds, with the exceptions of cutscenes.

Gameplay (10/10)- To me, this game has solid gameplay. I would even say it is way too solid, as I can ignore my surroundings with ho fun it is. You can drive around, craft weapons, hack and slash, run over masses of zombies, ignore the story or play the game to its fullest. There is something for everybody out there in this game (except for anyone under the age of 17)

Story (9 out of 10)- I actually really liked the plot on this game. At one point I went say what. Mostly because I have some background knowledge of the Dead Rising series. I liked how the different bosses have stories. I was skeptical with some on the contrary. Honestly there should of been a secret ending for beating all of the seven sin bosses. That really is my only qualm, how all you get was a shiny weapon and/or vehicle. Shame on me for being slightly biased, but the plot other than that is amazing. I should just change that to a decimal, but it would be a hassle to do extremely complex math.

In all honesty, for my first dead rising game that I played and didn’t watch someone else play, I really liked this game. I liked the nod off to Frank from the first game by all the statues. Like before, I give this game a 9.5 out of 10. That is all for now-

Jan 5th 2018- Battletoads

*Image is original artwork (also pulled from gamestop.com)
Hello, and today I am doing a review on Battletoads. You may be wondering hey, why the HUGE delay. I honestly forgot where I put my laptop in my room. Come when school starts up again I’ll probably find it in my locker or satchel. So you also now may be wondering what is he doing this on. My phone. So sorry if quality is bad. (*Post edit, halfway through I found my laptop.)

Battletoads is an old game by rare in which you play as Rash or Zit. It’s a old beat em up that is easily a classic. I recently beat it last week, and holy cow is it tough. But it is fun.

If you ask any 80’s through early 2000 kid about a beat ’em up, most will think about Battletoads. It has good graphics (For its time) and very solid gameplay. It is a very fun game, but, however there is a major bug that makes this game hard to beat completely (so I would recommend the Rare Replay version, as it fixes the bug and makes this game immensely easier) but still playable to the end (Keyterm end if playing non Rare Replay). This games gameplay is solid, and the music is addicting (a little too addicting, I got it stuck in my head) . This game is overall a pretty good game, so I would recommend this to everyone, but I wouldn’t recommend a completionist play through, but a beat it play through. Overall I would give this game a 3.5 out of 5. That’s all for now-

May 11th 2017- Super Meatboy recommendation

Warning, do not play this game if you are easily offended, or a kid(without parents permission, so parents, play it first). But what is it with little kids playing games not intended for their age group. Also this can be a rage inducing game, so don’t direct your anger at me if you “accidentally” or purposefully throw your controller against your screen or punch your computer screen.  Other than that, have fun. -P.S. One of the games soundtracks songs does have a vulgar name, and it does feature you going to the underworld for a while, so that is why I have to give this a warning Sticker. I would say if anything it is rated T. Also the games antagonist doesn’t have a fully appropriate name.

Today I am going to recommend a game called Super Meat Boy. Super MeatBoy is a quick paced platformed where you play as Meatboy (or one of the other unlock-able characters in the game) who’s girlfriend has been kidnapped by the games antagonist.This game makes you feel both nostalgia and rage at the same time, mostly for the fact it feels old school, but isn’t. It can be next to impossible to beat for most people (except me, no, I’m not bragging, this is just my favorite type if game), let alone get 100%.

Plot (100 out of 100 and 50 out of 100)- This game has an extremely easy to follow plot that is not hard to follow at all.  For that reason, I’m giving both a 100 and a 50, because it it has a plot that doesn’t make you confused, it’s cut and paste what happens, so for simplicity I give it a 100. The 50 part is this game has no complexity, and I personally like complex plots, but since my opinion is not of every ones, I’m giving it two grades, just to be fair.

Music- (100 out of 100) – I would give the music to this game an A+. I feel as if its one of the best things about the game because you will be stuck on many levels, so it’s at least gotta give you good music. My favorite song is the one of the underworld, but I do try to keep these reviews G to PG, so I can’t say the name. Look it up if you want to, but do it of your own accord. (This is so I don’t get in trouble if you get in trouble, so please don’t blame me if you look up the song name).

Gameplay (90 out of 100)- This games gameplay is repetitive (mostly for the fact of what type of game it is), but it constantly adds new elements to not make it monotonous (It’s not like running you over with an 18-wheeler, it gives you new elements at a steady pace). Most of it is figuring out what to do by yourself, but it is almost painfully obvious what each thing does. It even some times fires what each new mechanic does at you.

Rage inducing ((this scale is the more rage inducing it is, the lesser the score, just to make a game not a perfect 10 out of ten where it makes you want to throw the console out the window, also adds and additional 100 just in case of being too rage inducing) 35 out of 100) – This game can make you madder than the mad hatter, buts it not from being a crappy game. This game is legitimately hard and frustrating from good game play. Although this can make you go, “I should’ve made that,” it is still almost always the player who messed up.

Graphics-(75 out of 100)- The graphics of this game are good, but not great. I would say the games graphics are mediocre, but then again this game was released in 2011. So 75.

All in all, I would give this game an eight star rating (7.9 and 2/3 to be exact)(that’s the average of the two scores put together, from one category having two scores. Ones 8 and 1/3 and the other is 7.5) This amazing game is 15 dollars, so go check it out for yourself. Until next time- The Firemoon Gamer

 

Megaman 2 boss guide- April 29th, 2017

Warning incomplete, Enter at own risk Would be apperciated if you put how to kill each boss in comments to get this done faster, also names

Megaman 2 has no boss killing glitches, but it is an easier game than Megaman (Boss wise) Here is how to kill each of them. (BTW all but two bosses is weak to Megamans megablaster)

  1. Airman- Air man is the weakest to megamans megablaster, but he is also weak to bubble lead
  2. Crashman-  is weak to Airmans item
  3. The Alien (true final boss)- This thing will be healed by all of your weapons except for bubble lead. He is tough, but if you attack, then dodge as much as you can, it will probably be easy. Makes a mostly useless item finally useful.

Metriod zero mission Speed running tips- April 20th, 2017

This is a game recommended for every one. This game can be hard at times, but don’t immediately try to speed run it. Play it once or twice, and then try go at it.

       

Today I am going to give speed running tips for Metroid Zero mission.  This is an easy game to speed run. Then again I have played this game so many times that I know the amount of time in between each hit that an enemy has technical invincibility after you hit it, and how to space in between that you do double damage. That’s sadly not on here. But that is on a professional level.  This guide is people new to speed running.

First of all I’m going to give tips for the infinite wall jump. In Metriod, if you go up to a wall and jump to it, if you jump away in the opposite direction you will do a wall jump. However, in Metriod Zero mission, if you go change directions back to the wall when you wall jump, you will go back to the wall, higher. So theoretically, this could replace space jump early and mid game.

Another thing in Metriod Zero mission is bomb jumping. If you have the bombs and Morph Ball (technically Maru Maru) you can do what is known as a bomb jump. You can lay as many bombs as you want, even in midair. So spam bombs and you should be able to bomb jump to normally out of reach places, even unreachable by wall jumping.

The final thing is early varia suit. As soon as you get ledge grab and ice beam, you can get the varia suit. Normally you are intended to get the high jump before hand, but all you need to do is get the enemy in the room when you first come in the room to the path to the varia suit

. brinstatUpper highest hallway right next to save room is the one

Get the enemy above the area and if you hit it perfectly timed you should be able to go to the above area right before the hallway to the varia suit. Keep in mind that this item in all technicality can be gotten late game by skipping the varia suit all together, because when you get the gravity suit you are intended to have the varia suit, so the game basically gives it to you if you don’t have it. Either way can make a speed run faster timing, with skipping the varia suit harder but faster. So in reality it is dealers choice. That is all for now.

April 19th 2017- Momodora reverie under the moonlight review

Today I am going to review Momodora reverie under the moonlight. Momodora is a peculiar game. It is a game that rewards you with various items if you defeat bosses without taking any damage while fighting them. It is a game in which you follow a young priestess Kaho who is fighting a curse to save the land. MomodoraIV-Official art work-

The game is available to purchase at Steam for ten dollars, and it also on the Playstation 4 and Xbox 1 . The graphics is of semi-handrawn and semi-pixel. It has good graphics, and has amazing music. The music isn’t memorable to everyone, but can be. The music feels as if you were listening to classical music, and the gameplay is pretty solid. Overall I would give it a nine out of ten. Please buy the game for yourself to support the author. This game was released on March 4th 2016, so it is technically modern day. This has no support from the author in any way shape or form, but this is a game that needs more love.
