Enter...the Blade

Hi. I am The Blade, a friend of Toby's. He was nice enough to let me join his blog so I can talk/rant about my favorite video games. Let's start off with a not so recent game that is still fun game to play. One of the first shooters I played, Star Wars Battlefront II.

are a bit better, but it's still pretty much the same game I left on the PS2. All around the game is pretty fun. I especially liked the ability to keep fighting even though you're carrying the flag. You certainly didn't get that ability in the Halo games. Conquest was my favorite game mode; it was the perfect combination of slayer and land grab. I liked to put as many soldiers in a game as possible and just run around with a blaster slaughtered and I'm the one I originally had this game for the PS2, but I got it for my 360 a little while ago. The graphicsshootin' it up. I didn't much care for the space combat. It got repetitive after a little bit and the computer soldiers seemed to be able to do advance movements I couldn't. Where's the fun in that? I'd rather go on a suicide mission to invade the ship myself. Also there was one big problem: No matter which side you chose, your allies were morons that couldn't keep a post for 5 minutes. I gotta run from one side of the field to the other the whole time just to keep an even amount of posts on each side. And along the way I gotta be like some kinda Rambo and kill like 500 guys so we don't lose. And when we go down the heat falls on ME! These idiots are jumpin infront of my gun, losin' posts, gettin' yelled at! *Sigh* It's still pretty fun to go around killin' tons of droids (like these so called elite clones are gonna help) on my favorite levels.

Well, thanks for listening. See ya next time.

now, THAT is bad AI, it's like they half assed the job and only worked on the enemies, then when they got to your teammates, they went "***k it, we got what we need", lol

That may be true eddman. Or it could be they did that to challenge the gamer more. Like I said, it didn't matter which army you chose, your allies were stupid and unreliable.
