Hey all. Sorry about my little hiatus that I took. I have been slammed at work and I had what the insurance companies call a "Life Changing Event".
I got married.
YAY!!!!!
Now in no way am I saying that because I got married I have not been able to play games. First, I got married on the 11th, and if you understand the Gregorian Calendar and can understand basic math you would realize that I have been away since before then.
Second, my wonderful wife did research on two games that I had as possibility to buy from a list I had made. She did it without my asking, understanding that she married a dork. That's one of the reasons why I love her.
Aside from the mushy stuff, she found from asking people that Zelda: Skyward Sword (Zelda) would be the best option between that and Assassins Creed: Revelations. I had been interested in Zelda because it was a Zelda game. Being someone who grew up with the green tunic wearing, sword wielding hero, I knew I had to try it.
I am about 2.5 hours tops into the game. I spent a lot of time getting used to the flying and the fact that I did not pay attention to the tutorial in which you have to flap your arms like a goober to gain altitude. My wife sitting behind me laughing her ass off with her drink almost shooting out her nose as I "fly" around the living room. Word of advice: Have enough room to wheel about like a moron.
The sword fighting is fun. It move with the 8 points of a compass. Its no 1:1 ratio but its still really damn fun. I will admit though that when lots of monsters attack me I tend to just fling my arm around like a moron and yell "DIE DIE DIE".
I think the game has a lot of potential, and the story is rather fun. I was going to write about where I feel this game falls in the timeline, however I will hold off on that till I get back from my honeymoon and I have some more time to play the game more.
I got married.
