-Rocket Launcher

-Giant Box

-Anti-Air Missile

-Explosive mine thingy

-Guided Missile (You control the missile yourself )

Metroid Prime 3- Full review

Yay! Lol! I just finished Metroid Prime 3 today. Sorry I haven't posted for a while, but now I'm posting a review for Metroid Prime 3.

STORY:The Story goes something like this: Aurora unit, the galactic federation's network of organic supercomputers, is malfuncioning. Why? Because space pirates, Led by Dark Samus, have sent leviathans to impact each planet that has an Aurora computer on it. Once these leviathans Impact the planet, they start pumping viruses into the aurora unit's system, corrupting the computer with phazon. Your Mission, as Samus Aran, is to destroy the Leviathans. These leviathans are made from Phazon. They are protected by a phazon corrupted creature. (See:"HYPERMODE" ) and every time you destroy one, you get a new Hypermode ability! (also see: "HYPERMODE") Story:7/10

GAMEPLAY: the gameplay is similar to that of a normal Metroid Prime game, other than the "point and aim" aspect. During the game you will collect several suit upgrades, that can let you do a variety of different things. gameplay:9/10

HYPERMODE: during the game, Samus will be corrupted by phazon.(courtesy of Dark Samus.) However, after being corrupted, you will soon receive a Phazon Enhancement Device, which will let you use the phazon inside your body. So, by pressing the Wii-mote's + button, you can go into Hypermode. In Hypermode your attacks are based on pure phazon, like a more-powerful than a normal missile missile called a hyper-missile, that's charged by phazon. also, your beam is stronger in hypermode. Also, during the game, you may meet some phazon corrupted creatures that can also go into Hypermode. Just a warning. Oh, but if you stay in hypermode to long There WILL be consequences! New Hypermode ability:7.5/10

anyway, that's my review for the game!

Metroid Prime 3

YES! Yesterday I got Metroid Prime 3!!! :> It is sooo fun! I haven't gotten very many major upgrades, though, but i have gotten a few of them - I've also gotten a few new upgrades that have NEVER before been featured in a Maetroid game. These Items include the Command Visor and the Grapple Lasso.

Side-note: For those of you who think that Metroid is all "Boom-Boom" with no story, it's not. In Metroid Fusion there is talking, also what they are saying is just seen in scrolling text. The story is also clear in that game. In Metroid Prime 2 there is also scrolling text with a simple story, and in Metroid Prime 3 there is even Voice acting!!

Anyway, I'm not very far in Metroid Prime 3, But when I've had some more experience, or when i beat the game, I'll be sure to write a review about it. :) That's all for now.

Wii-mote Accidents

Ever hear that Wii-motes get flung out of hands and smash TVs? Well, guess they were trying to smash their TVs!! On the pictures, it is very clear that the WRIST STRAPS WERE NOT ATTACHED!!!!!! It is stated when the Wii is turned on AND when most games start AND on the Nintendo website AND in the instuction manual to WEAR THE WRIST STRAP!!!!!!!!!!!! So I guess that they all Wii-mote accidents are fake. Probably all Sony/Microsoft workers trying to ruin Nintendo or Nintendo haters. So now you know.

My Super Paper Mario Review

This Is My review of the Wii game, Super Paper Mario. 10/10, DEFINATELY!!

STORY:Well, first of all, the game is VERY funny. A first sign of that is the fact that the main bad guy is a man named Count Bleck. Anyway, the story is like this: Princess Peach has mysteriously dissapeared, so, the (Paper) Mario Bros. immediately suspect Bowser. The Mario Bros. head off to Bowser's castle, where they find out that Bowser HASN'T kidnapped Peach, but was only just about to start his attack. Then, Count Bleck attacks the castle, and kidnapps everyone - except for Mario.

Mario is greeted by a butterfly Pixl ( a pixelated Thing) named Tippi, who takes Mario to the mysterious town of flipside, a world between dimensions. Mario then meets Merlon, who tells Mario about the light and dark prophecies, and about Count Blecks plot to destroy all worlds - but Merlon also tells Mario how to stop that from happening. To do that, Mario must collect all 8 Pure Hearts, place them in their heart pillars in Flipside, then the way to Bleck Castle will open...

During the game, you'll also meet many other pixls, who each have a unique ability that will aid you on your adventure.

GAMEPLAY: This game is an RPG. although it is a mostly side-scrolling game, you'll get points for each enemy you defeat. When you reach a certain amount of points, you'll level up. Early on in the game Mario will get the ability to flip between 2D and 3D. 3D can be used to sneak past enemies and to find hidden paths and more, but you can only be in 3D for 10 seconds. During your journey, 3 other characters will join you. Here is a list of the charaters and their abilities:

Mario: 3D Flip ability

Princess Peach: Umbrella Float

Bowser: Fire Breath

Luigi: Spring Jump ( Super High Jump.)

GRAPHICS

They REALLY did a good job of the graphics of this game. Everything really is paper. There are 8 worlds; these are how just some of them are:

Chapter 1: Lines, Lines, Lines! Everythings a line!

Chapter 4: everything is pixelated-like and made from confetti-like squares of paper.

Bleck Castle: Everything is just black or white, with some exceptions.

Yup, this post is why I LOVED this game.

My Personal Cooking Mama Cookoff Review

Hello there! I'm here to talk about my experience with the Wii game called Cooking Mama Cookoff.

STORY: For those of you who think there is a story, well, there is none. Basically you are a chef in the kitchen that will cook to try and impress "The Cooking Mama."after every step of a meal, you'll be awarded points based on how well you did, and Mama will give a comment in her thick German accent about how well you did. She'll either say: I will help you :( (Bad) or Good, keep going! (Average) or Wonderful!! Better than Mama!!!!! (Good) Or, in her jealousy, she'll spaz at you and Shout GREAT!!!!!

GAMEPLAY: The cooking motions all mostly use the wii-mote, but some of them also include buttons. The challenges range all the way from cracking an egg to chopping squids. in 1-p mode, every time you finish a meal that you haven't done before, you'll add a new recipe to your cookbook. There are French, Japanese, Italian, Chinese, American and Spanish recipies, and those are just the ones that I've unlocked!! There is also something called "Challenge Mode" where you don't get a score after every step of the meal; Just your finishing score. also, you won't get instructions for each step of the meal.

GRAPHICS: the graphics are fairly simple, but still nice. The thing I like most about the graphics, though, is that everything is moving. Mama is swinging her head back and forth, the forks and knives are dancing around, and even the text is pulsating.

2-P MODE: Two player mode is nice. the contestants choose on a recipe and and have a competition cooking it. Points are awarded just like they are in 1-p mode. When the meal is completed, whoever has more points is the winner. There's also a "friends and food of the world" mode where the human plays against a CPU.

MY CRITICISMS: My main criticism is that the challenges are too repetitive. There are about 20 different steps that are used for 50 recipies. Other than that, It's quite a good game.

This game would be better suited for a price of probably 40$, not 60$.

Goodbye. :)
