A great online game, dekaron. A strikingly good MMORPG with great characters, mobs, skills and more. Dekaron is sure to provide a fun experience to many players, at least until lvl 70(which is alot). This review mostly points to dekaron SEA and points taken will be from it. Though it is quite behind many other versions of dekaron this is the one I played, so I can apply my experience and opinion towards it. Well, nothing else to say, lets get the ball rolling.










Dekaron was pre-named 2 moons before its pre-release version, and it is still called that for USA players. Well as the game title suggests the story is about 2 moons coming together and some catastrophe shit occuring. Well I dont know much about the story since its an MMO. Anyway, you get to pick from 6 characters. Once again pretty average amount, same as cabal. Knight, your basic swords person. Warrior, a martial artist type character. Mage, master of elemants. Segnale, a basic cleric / support type character. Summoner, a warrior/mage hybrid which calls on help of monsters. Lastly, the hunter, deadly fighters both up close and afar.







Graphic wise dekaron isnt bad for a free MMORPG. It loses to cabal but on its own it boasts pretty good graphical mehcanics. The shine and gleam to the knight's armor or the design and markings on warrior's big armor pieces, they all look good thx to dekaron's grahpics. Even the sexy armors of the female characters are good looking. Mob wise the designs are pretty good too. There is a variety of monsters to fight and there are almost no repeats to the monsters. Some of the monster designs are nice, and they are pretty detailed. Bosses are without a doubt, greatly made as well, some towering 10-20x above your character, they are nice looking and good to fight.
Another thing that shines along with the graphics are the skills. The obtaining of skills is easy, just get to the lvl requirement of the skill, sacrifice a small amoun of money, and the skill is yours. Nothing fancy needed. Also, the skills in dekaron are nice, though low lvl skills look mediocre and pathetic, the later level skills are great and very well animated. From summoner's dark avatar to the mage's aqua circle, these skills are great eye openers and players wontmind seeing them over and over.





Along with the skills that players will be using on mobs, they will of course want to test it on players. Thats right, there is a PVP and PK system in this game. Every character has thier own shield, which protects them from player dmg. When players attack you, instead of attacking your HP like normal mobs do, you take damage to your shield 1st. This way PVP/PK battles last longer, giving players more excitement.
Sure PVPs are fun, so is PKing but...there is a small issue. There are MANY, MANY MANY high level faggots in dekaron. And they LOVE to PK you. Dekaron is the game where I have been pked the most, for no apparent reason at all. While training quitely and innocently, when a pro happens to walk past, theres a 50% chance he will PK your ass.Its a bad habit players of the game have, and when you get stronger you will develop this habit as well. Other than that the game is very non user friendly. With boss mobs randomly spawning around to kill you, along with hordes of monsters usually coming up to gang the daylights out of you, dekaron is extremely non user friendly. Its like the GMs want you to die.


Other than that dekaron is quite a pleasing MMORPG with a lot of fun. Training is pretty managable early on, and winning people in PVPs, successfully fending off Pkers, defeating bosses..all these become very very satisfactory. With motivations such as new armor or skills to keep you training, dekaron becomes addictive quickly.





Happy gaming.

Okay being someone who checks in on gamespot often, I will have obviously seen the programme for game of the year.

And when I saw the result I couldnt have been happier. The 2009 game of the year is demon souls! Thats one more reason for me to buy that game. Although I have been happy about demon souls being GOTY, part of the world didnt.

From reading the damn comments there are so many godamn whiners who said stuff like "Should have been modern warfare 2!!", or "Uncharted 2 so beats demon souls!". Some also said " Halo 3:ODST so kicks ass!More than this game!", or even " Batman AA should have won!" Some even said " Demon souls looks gay!!" as an excuse.

Those people should just fuck off, and seriously, Im not the only one who says this. All the people who posted unnessecary comments about how other games where better than demon souls, thier comments got serious thumbs down, both in gamespot and in youtube.

Well enough about that nonsense, Im just happy demon souls won. Today I just went to LAN(aka cyber cafe) and had a lot of fun.

I havent went to LAN for 2 years or so and I think I had alot of fun today. I have been playing left 4 dead 2 in the LAN and i think playing in LAN is 5 times more fun than playing alone.

All this while I have been playing left 4 dead 2 at home with my brother at home, but today I just went with 2 of my friends to LAN and playing with friends is GREAT. Communication becomes a huge thing and the gaming expereicne shoots up by a few times.

Well thats all for today, peace.

I almost forget almost about this wolfteam project I had ongoing since I havent played the game itself for quite sometime.

Anyway! Here we are today with the topics about guns.Heres a quick run-up.

Guns good vs wolf

AK 47/gold/classic

-This here is every FPS's good friend AK47. Its good in terms of damage, but due to its high recoil fighting humans is a pain. But thankfully, against wolves... since they always come up close to claw you, you get to shoot the gun in thier dam face. And since wolves cant kill you from afar, take your time and slowly shoot them with this painful gun, they cant do a shyt.

EM60/silver/pixel

-Actually this gun is not that bad against humans too, but what the heck. This gun has a habit of expanding the crosshair everytime you fire bullets, so using it against humans is not a very bright thing to do, unless you shoot ammo by ammo. Against wolves this gun is very effective, having great fire power and its huge 50+ ammo per clip. You can sprayyy all you want, since you got so much ammo at your disposal. Also you wont miss very often, since they will be close to you.

EM14

-Great gun to use against wolves. Same drawback as AK47, high recoil, but again it makes up for high RAW damage. Has slightly lower recoil than AK47, making it more useful against humans than the AK.

ANY shotgun

- Simple theory. They come up to your face, you aim at thier head with your gigantic almost impossible to miss crosshair, you click with your finger, you get an easy kill. But the only drawback is that if you miss you're as good as dead. Although with the EXM, you get 5 shots, but the damage is lower.

ANY turret

-Turrets are monsters against wolves. With huge ammo clips and insane damage, they are wolf killers.Well the only drawbacks are that you cant move while firing a turret, and you can only turn it to a certain degree, proving its uselessness against humans.One nade and BOOM, you're dead. One last and final drawback against wolves is the very dreadful and deadly...berserker wolf. Thier suicidal ability is the ultimate counter to turrets. When you spot a berserker with a turret, be extra careful and rethink your plans.


Guns good vs human

ANY sniper(expect the wooden sniper which I forget the name)

-Once again, a simple theory. The stout is a basic weapon, which means its not too strong in terms of firepower. Stand at a spot where no human would bother searching, and click away with your zoom. 2 hits will do the job. Do watch out though, since after you prey are hit once, they will know where you are shooting from, and they will turn to kill you. The AWP sniper though, kills ALMOST any time you hit upper body in one shot. Its hell deadly. And, for wolves they dun work well. Why? Simple, how do you snipe a smart wolf jumping around frantically? You dont. Problem solved.

EM4

-Great gun with great accuracy. When you upgrade its laser, if you crouch in battle, the crosshair is like a friggin dot. Just shoot away once the crosshair hits the opponent, since the recoil is almost inexsistence in this gun.


Guns good vs both

LAW,WT-RL

- Everyone who sees this will go YESSSSSS. LAW is a missle launcher while WT-RL is a rocket launcher.LAW one hit KOs any human and smart wolf when the missle lands directly BESIDE them. Good stuff. The RL kills anything, expect full healthed power wolves, berserker wolves and gurdians. The RL's rocket however, is slow, while the LAW's missle is quick and hard to dodge. But overall RL is better because of its sheer power.

Z-36C

-My new favourite gun. Though only moderate in power, this gun has great accuracy and firing speed, making it both good human and wolf killers.

AKEIS

-Okay, I HAVE to cover this gun, its just too awesome. It has well above average power and good accuracy. Many humans use this in bomb plants and deathmatches cause it kills people fast. It works good on wolves too since rapidly firing on them will slow them down.

XEM

-AKA the gold gun. Its really very easy to understand. Its normal rapid firing action makes killing wolves rather easy, though it has only moderate damage, it has great stuttering ability. Rapid firing also helps killing humans that are in mid-close range. Having trouble against a sniper? No problem! Use 3 burst zoom and click at thier head, guranteed one hit KO. Of course unless they move away, but it seldom happens cause 3 burst is quick. This requires practice though since, 3 bursting the head always tends to hit the body instead.

PI-90/silver

-Though low in damage, this gun makes up for its great ammo clip. It has moderate accuracy, means killing humans at mid range should be no problem, cause 50 ammo is alot to spare. In a crossfire, your opponent's gun will run out of amo 1st, and while reloading, you have the uper hand since you still about 20 ammo left, spray the crap out of him! For wolves, you have 50 ammo, so the same concept for the EM60 applies here.

EF

-Argubly the best gun in the game and my ex-favourite. The crosshair is bloody small, which means high accuracy, its crosshair size is close to that of the EM4. This makes killing humans easy, since it has awesome damage to back it up. The recoil is however is the only drawback. But it is often used as an advantage sometimes against humans, due to recoil the aimer usually flies to the head, which will land the death blow. This works on wolves too. With wolves, aweseome damage is more than enough to kill them, plus great accuracy , this gun pure owns.

Thats all for now. Project will continue somehwere in january.

Gamespot score:7.7(good)

my score:7.5


(+)pros:-many forms to control,- well designed and revisitable levels,- great japanese voice acting,- music is top notch,- well designed bosses

(-)cons:-very very VERY hard to play at times,- platforming can be abit weird at times, -walking around as plain old aile seems pointless


gameplay time:10-20 hours(below average)







Merry christmas to all. Been busy these days, cuz of christmas and stuff... Anyway, today I will be going over megaman ZX on the DS. I have been a great fan of the megaman 2D platformer franchise since I was a kid. Since the PS1 days I have been joining the blue bomber on his journeys(altough I never seemed to complete any of his games back then).Now back on the DS as another platformer, megaman ZX provides a new experience.


Aile is a girl on a delivery job. One day, like always she follows her "boss" giro to deliver another package. However this time it seems super important and giro stresses that it not be broken or spoilt. On halfway through delivery aile meets with an accident and finds herself attacked by a giant snake maverick, her package reveals to be model X which infuses with her. She becomes X and blasts her way through, also discovering that there are people after the model X, her journey begins with her helping out folks and helping herself with her new powers, as well as being careful of the foes after her.





Megaman has always been a simple to learn game. Since its a 2D platformer, all you can do it move left, or right. Most of the time it seems to be right though. Anyway the 2D platformer megaman games, though being easy to learn, are nver easy games to complete. Like the megaman zero series from the GBA it carries over its same system, gaming over after a number of tries. Now this is partially because of the brutally difficult bosses and levels. Guess what, they are back in this game. With levels featuring the ability to one hit KO u most of the time, dieing has become more often than ever. I have completed this game in easy mode, but cant seem to make it pass some of the bosses in normal mode. There is even a hard mode too, to really push players to thier limit....

Besides all these, megaman ZX has a lot to offer that makes it a better platformer than many of its preducessors. One is the good level design. I have never seen such great level interior design since old school megaman 8. Also, while running through these levels, the great themed music helps up the mood to play through the stage. Also, this time, the levels are all connected in a map, which means you can walk thorugh linked areas over and over. Its cool, but if you dont like it you can still use the teleporter.





As I did mention before, megaman's boss fights can be very unforgiving, this game has no exepction. The crazy mavericks are back and they are though like ever before. With incredibly damaging and near unaviodable attacks, these guys can take out very experienced players, that means newcomers dont stand a chance, even in easy mode. These guys require retrying again and again and again and again, until you get tired of it. Despite all this, the bosses are very well designed, looks and attacks alike, they arent flawed. If you die, that means you just could dodge his attacks, not caused the creators decided to make his attacks undodgable. Every boss has thier own weaknesses and ways to dodge thier attacks, so it just means if you keep losing, you need more pratice.


I really like megaman ZX, though I could only clear the game on easy, switching to normal mode to have a go at the bosses at thier full potential really is fun. Megaman ZX is my favourite 2D platformer megaman game so far( I didnt enjoy ZX advent very much). Megaman fans would love this one, even if you are a seasoned player.





Happy gaming.
