Many
...kingdoms
...Countries
...Civilizations
...Whole people
Have come and gone.
Swept by
...time
...vices and sin
...corruption
...conquest
...Divine righteousness
What makes Paradise?
It isn't the flag
It isn't the whole people
It isn't history that defines that country
For what truly makes Paradise.
Is the countries brave of enough
To face their own mortality
Rather than immortality
So when the sunsets.
Paradise has fallen.
For those who make twisted history
Are forever dooming their future Paradise
To fall through space and time.
And will forever be forgotten.

The Conqueror's Dream Poem
To realize a dream
One must take the first step
Not looking back
But forward
Taking risks
Taking sacrifices
Taking the hardships
Of all leaders of the world.
To fulfill one's dream
One must soar high like a bird
But have the scaly hide as a dragon
With the mind set of a genius intellect
To be the Conqueror
One must dream
To live his/her reality within the dream
Upon thy awakening from the dream
Your dreams shall be fulfilled.
One must take the first step
Not looking back
But forward
Taking risks
Taking sacrifices
Taking the hardships
Of all leaders of the world.
To fulfill one's dream
One must soar high like a bird
But have the scaly hide as a dragon
With the mind set of a genius intellect
To be the Conqueror
One must dream
To live his/her reality within the dream
Upon thy awakening from the dream
Your dreams shall be fulfilled.
Amongst the Winter Breeze Poem
Snowfall
Winter has come.
The snow feels beautiful
Yet so hallow and splendid
When I feel the breeze.
I feel that time has frozen around me
Life becomes lifeless....
....and the lifeless forgets.
The Winter is my shield.
Against all things sad and tragic.
But what is truly astonishing
This same shield
Has become my tragic outlook.
If I have to wander
Amongst that Winter Breeze
I may never come back
To the world I once knew
That is now lost.
Winter has come.
The snow feels beautiful
Yet so hallow and splendid
When I feel the breeze.
I feel that time has frozen around me
Life becomes lifeless....
....and the lifeless forgets.
The Winter is my shield.
Against all things sad and tragic.
But what is truly astonishing
This same shield
Has become my tragic outlook.
If I have to wander
Amongst that Winter Breeze
I may never come back
To the world I once knew
That is now lost.
Lost & Tragedy Poem
Where is the sunlight?!
Where is the person from where the sun casts on?
When I see you
The sun feels closer to me.
Happiness is plentiful and splendid
But as the days grow old.
The sun begins to fade.
From daylight to dusk
You are slowly withering away.
Shadows loom.
And the world around me grows grey.
For when you are truly gone.
The world becomes black and white.
Colorless forever.
I find myself lost now.
Amongst the world of grey.
For once upon a time.
You were my sunlight
And now that sunlight is gone.
Forever....
Where is the person from where the sun casts on?
When I see you
The sun feels closer to me.
Happiness is plentiful and splendid
But as the days grow old.
The sun begins to fade.
From daylight to dusk
You are slowly withering away.
Shadows loom.
And the world around me grows grey.
For when you are truly gone.
The world becomes black and white.
Colorless forever.
I find myself lost now.
Amongst the world of grey.
For once upon a time.
You were my sunlight
And now that sunlight is gone.
Forever....

My sweet loving angel Poem
Even an angel from Heaven can be of different size
Who is sweet
Who is caring
Who is talented
And most of all. Passionate about life and family.
When you were a little one
You made our world.

Just you and me.
Telling stories
Sharing adventures.
And always at the end of the day
I will always love you.
My heart.
My love for you. My child.
Will always be with you. Since the beginning.

Romantic Poem
The stars are red
The sky is pink
Love is in the air.
What was once alone
Was now whole.
For eternity has past
And I was there waiting for you
Happiness is not the illusion
Nor is it a curse.
But rather something
Truly special
Between you and me.
The sky is pink
Love is in the air.
What was once alone
Was now whole.
For eternity has past
And I was there waiting for you
Happiness is not the illusion
Nor is it a curse.
But rather something
Truly special
Between you and me.

Amongst the Winter Breeze -Chapter 4-
So where does Jonathan Reese come in you ask? Well it so happens that is where his story comes into play. A study abroad student, well former anyways. Tried enjoying the college life but found it boring. He began helping out his pops at the local car shop in outskirts of London.
Jonathan Reese was a "target" for the ladies, every woman in town wanted him, including the married ones. Much to the dismay of the husbands, even then Reese always being the defiant one, always say to them, "Sorry not today" he smiled and wink, melting their hearts. This guy was a straight up greaser. I mean have you seen the movie Grease? he would fit right in. Sort of like a cross between John Travolta and the famous James Dean. This guy was seriously that cute.
How he ties into Eliza is actually quite funny. Eliza and her mom went out of town, seeing that her mom's condition was getting better. However her car stalled and needed repair and so after being towed to the garage that is where Eliza first met Jonathan. "Hello miss, Can I help you?" he said, as he got through fixing up another car that was towed in before Eliza's, The two of them stare for a second before snapping back into reality. Eliza said to him, "My radiator needs fixing....again". Eliza sighed in frustration about the issue. Jonathan smiled and said, "It's okay miss. These things happened".
Jonathan got right down to business and started to fix the problem. While Eliza was waiting outside, her mom was sitting next to her. Feeding the birds that came by, Eliza's mom suddenly started to talk, "Birds have freedom. Can fly wherever and whenever they want to" she said, Eliza smiled and said, "Indeed. I wish. I wish, that would happen to me" Eliza said in disappointment.
Eliza and her mom began talking and talking, both laughed and giggled. Soon, Jonathan was done, "Okay miss. It's all finish. It will be-" and that is where it first hit him like a ton of bricks. The dude was frozen at her beauty. But knowing his father he said to her in a casual nice way, "It's on the house. For free this time" Jonathan said as he smiled and handed Eliza the keys. The two ladies said thank you, got into the car and went home. Jonathan's dad saw all of this transpired, got out of the office and said to his son. "Your an idiot. But in a good way" he said as he patted his son on the shoulder, Jonathan laughed and said, "Ah you got that right old timer!"
They weren't the only ones thinking the same. Eliza's mom made the same comment as they approached the city, "He's got the hots for my only daughter" she said, Eliza couldn't believe what came out of her mom's mouth. "Mom! He's older than me. Cute too *daydreaming* Wait uh that's not what I meant" as she drives, the two ladies laughed in unison. As they went back into town, Eliza's mom wouldn't stop talking about it, "Someone's got a crush" she said, and of course, Eliza would say, "I do not" but they both knew. This maybe was the answer to Eliza's problem. Only trouble is, Eliza has commitment issues. She can love her boyfriend to death, but will fail to be more thoughtful and caring about the relationship.

Amongst the Winter Breeze -Chapter 3-
Ah Angela. Where do I begin? Seriously. If you want the British version of Tony Montana. Or Pablo Escobar, then this girl was your person to go to. Life for her was totally different however, sadly like most teenagers they fall into that rabbit hole of vice and sin. She was a potential star, she actually wanted to be in music. Particularly Jazz. Her inspiration was the late Amy Winehouse. Seriously Angela when she was a teen, Couldn't stop listening to her music.
Once she got into college. Life was good, until one day she got a call that her family was being evicted from their own apartment. Apparently, the mom failed to pay the rent on time. And soon they were homeless. But eventually they found shelter at a local shelter home. The people there were supportive of Angela's passion and dreams. One woman, an elderly woman, rolled up in her wheelchair, grasp Angela's hand and said, "Angel" that should be your first album name. Angela took that as a compliment. Then came the fire, one night after another good performance, she got word that the shelter had a faulty wiring that led to the fire that destroyed the home, Angela's mom was in there. Soon the Shelter relocated but due to hard times, they stopped supporting Angela. And she left to follow her dreams, which was sort live. She ended up dating the wrong kind of boys. To "comfort your sorrows" said her ex-boyfriend who was clearly a meth-head. Angela said, "Fuck it" and lit it up like no tomorrow. Soon she was a drug dealer, and somehow became a mom, probably through one of her contacts. She was a trashy, drug-dealing, class A slut. The man left, no reason why. She was left with their only child.
She could've abandoned the child to the local childcare services. But instead looked in the mirror and told herself, "Clean yourself up girl. Your a fucking mess" she always repeats this morning, after morning. Sort of like a prayer. She got so many part time jobs, and with the help of a loyal friend to the end. The friend was at home baby sitting, while also cleaning up Angela's dark past, away from sight and mind.
Angela one day went to the grocery store. Buying food and stuff. "Peaches" she said, as she began scratching off a shopping list. After she got her stuff, she went to her mini-van. But couldn't open the door, "Let me help you" said a voice, It was Claudia and Stacy. Still in high school and shopping with their moms, Angela said, "Thank you" to them got in the mini-van and drove back home. Along the way to her horror she said to herself, "Oh my god. That is my neighbor" she said, hoping that her neighbor didn't notice her "new self".
After going through so many sessions, trial and error. All of this stuff. Angela was a new woman, however, by the time she was in her mid 20's her son was following in her footsteps. "Dammit Jimmy. Why the bad grade? did you study at all last night?!" she yelled at her son, Jimmy didn't care, just played video games, did drugs, and literally fucked around. Eventually, Jimmy one night got his things and left his mom. The last words were, "Fuck you mom" and slammed the door in her face. Angela sat on the floor, crying to herself. Alone.
She soon starting to get back into the habit. Despite protests from her friends, a few bets here, gambling here, smoking, drinking. It was pretty bad, but then she notices something in her, she began having memory problems, split personalities. It gotten so bad she was sent to the looney bin for a few months. And that is where she is now, sitting in a white room, trying to wiggle her way out, and talking to herself.
"Hello Angela" said the doctor as he came in, "How are you today?" he said. Angela ignoring the question, just frozen. Silently looking outside the dinky, white room. "It's snowing" she said. The doctor laughed and said, "Yes it is snowing. In fact, that is why i was late". He said as he took off his glasses and cleaned them. Angela sat back down, and looked back at her doctor and said, "Why is it always snowing?" she said, the doctor said, "Climate changes. Oh! You mean? Heh, now that we will have to explore even deeper". The doctor got on the floor in front of Angela and said, "Can we do it?" he said smiling, Angela not being in a position to outright refuse, or lash out, said. "Okay".
The two of them smile as the doctor began discussing the thematic and philosophical purpose of snowfall.

Amongst the Winter Breeze -Chapter 2-
Frankie was heading back to his apartment. Along the way he stopped for a drink, he then noticed two girls walking into the same diner that he was in. They both stared at each other for a brief second, clearly ignoring each other. As he got his sandwich he began overhearing their conversation, "Play it cool" said Frankie, "Don't act like a dumbass".
As Frankie ate his sandwich, the two girls began chatting, "Claudia, darling you need to find yourself some fun in this city!" said Claudia's friend. "*chuckles* But Stacy, I am more busy with my studies then getting drunk or wasted". As Claudia sips her milkshake. Stacy, being Claudia's friend, laughed and pointed at her drink, "Seriously? A milkshake? What are you, a fifties girl?" she said as she lit up a smoke. Claudia noticed and heard her remark and she said to Stacy, "Seriously? You are telling me? What about you, you smoke too damn much. Remember that woman...um Angela? my neighbor? seriously you can smell the smoke from down the block" Claudia remarked vehemently as she drank her milkshake and ate her sandwich.
Then two men walked into the same diner. Clearly they were gang members of the same group. They sat down at a table and began "wolfing" at Claudia and Stacy. "Hey baby" said one of them, "Why don't you come over here to daddy and um, sip MY milkshake down?" he said, his doped up friend laughed and said, "Nah, seriously? dude? This is how you do it. Ladies, why don't you come over here *chuckles* why don't you come over here and SUCK MY BANANA!" said the other dude, the two dudes in unison said, "GOT EM!" as they did their stupid ass handshake and laughed so loud, the two ladies just simply paid the bill and walk away, all while Frankie was observing, the two dudes felt that they got dissed and they weren't going to take the silent treatment as an answer.
So they agreed to something, you know it was bad. They nodded and rushed out, Frankie simply finished his sandwich, and told the diner owner, "Hey call the police!" he said as he rushed out, as the owner dial the number. The two women walked down the streets, as they talked and giggled about stuff that occurred over the weekend. "Seriously? Maddie's cat needs to stop doing that?" Claudia said, Stacy laughed and said to Claudia, "Well you can't help it. That cat disappears all the time".
And then those two assholes showed up. "Hey! What's up baby cakes" one of the dude said, the other dude said to his homeboy, "Nah, that's our future wives right here!" the two dudes laughed, the ladies rolled their eyes and said, "No thanks. Find your own slut". Soon it got a little bit more violent. The two dudes pulled them over again, and this time they were arm. "Lean against the wall" said the first man, holding a pistol, Claudia and Stacy had no other choice but to do as they say, they lean against the wall with their faces turned towards it. The other dude checked the corners, making sure that the police wasn't around. "No cops. You take the brunette, i take the one with that fiery passion".
The two gang members began raping the helpless girls in the thick of night. "Call the police. And we will kill you both" said one of the gang members as he raps Claudia. Stacy was crying and Claudia was in a silent rage but couldn't hold back her tears. "Leave them alone!" said Frankie who caught up to them. The two dudes stopped what they were doing and threw the girls onto the ground. Claudia accidentally hits her head on a nearby garbage bin, while Stacy was sitting there on the ground, curdled up, in a frantic state. "What's up homie?" said one of the guys. Frankie smiled and pulled out a bat and said, "Where I come from, we hit ball....hard. But hey, I am sure both of your mom's got the same hit from this hard, solid baseball bat. Oh wait! I am talking about my-" before Frankie could finish, one of the guys lashed out at him, "You son of a-" he said. Not holding their rage in any longer they rushed him, stupidly throwing their guns on the ground. Thinking that they could take one guy on.
And in a manner of minutes, Frankie hit home run as it were. Not once, but twice. The two dudes ran out screaming, and stupidly right into the police that was looking for them. A cop got out and said, "Put your hands above your ahead!" the cop yelled. The two dudes surrendered. Frankie helped the girls up and into the local ambulance that came by minutes later. "Frankie" he said to Claudia and Stacy. Both of the girls replied with a thank you, and introduce themselves. After a few minutes of talking, Frankie smiled, waved and went home. For the first time in his life. Frankie felt happy.
As Frankie ate his sandwich, the two girls began chatting, "Claudia, darling you need to find yourself some fun in this city!" said Claudia's friend.

The whole world was stunned and disbelief at what transpired. Bobby's family happened to be in New York when the tragic events occurred. It hit his father so hard he was vividly reminded of the events at Pearl Harbor only this was worse, citizens not the nations finest army was being killed. Bobby's father insisted he join the army once more. But said no, and instead opened up a relief shelter of sorts for those who were wounded and helpless. While his father was mad, and his mother was supportive, eventually Bobby's father had a change of heart and was happy for his only son. He died a year later, his mother also died two months afterwards of a broken heart.

Now, Eliza was only ten years old and while parents are necessary from time to time Bobby allowed her to be by herself if her mom had to run to the store and get some things. They played chess, read stories, even do some artwork.
Eliza eventually brought the attention of the local bookstore towards the city council, or at least her mom did. The city saved the bookstore by donating a lot of money to it. And for that Bobby was grateful. However, only one kid he didn't like. His name was Frankie. "I swear every time he comes in, he is either high as a kite, or looking like hell" Bobby said to himself.
Frankie was an eighteen year-old punk. Thinks he knows everything, He thinks he is going to be the President of Canada or something. The guy has no virtue only a typical teenage thug either looking for the next tail in town or the next drug deal. Each time the police came to arrest him, it's always the same sob story he always tells them. It's sad too, Frankie had potential, was a football player once upon a time, destined for greatness but then when his mother died of cancer. He lived with his drug-dealing dad, who was later arrested after a local neighbor snitched on him. Frankie lived with adoption home, after adoption home. By the time he was old enough had the money his last foster family in funny irony cut him loose, always lashing out at him for his poor grades and his stubborn and childish attitude at school. He bought his apartment and lived there ever since. He met Eliza only once, despite his idiotic friends telling him, "Hey dude, check that ass out. You should totally hit that". said one of Frankie's friends. Frankie lit up a cigarette, looked at her for a few minutes, and said to his friend, "Fuck off". He then flicked his cigarette at his friend and bounced from the scene.
So ironically, somewhere he has a heart. "Why is life so boring?! I mean, driving cars, racing, scoring chicks, getting high as an eagle. Seriously where is the real action in this freaking city". Frankie said as he overlooked London with a stern look.
There he fell in love with her, and soon was honorable discharged since his wounds cost him his right leg. They gotten married and had their first and only child. When they returned to the states, Bobby became a bank teller, and his wife became a part-time babysitter. Bobby was destined for great things, a smart man, and knows his way around the streets. In fact, his father was so proud of him, when he becomes of age he will join the army just like he did. However destiny said differently when 9/11 happened. The whole world was stunned and disbelief at what transpired. Bobby's family happened to be in New York when the tragic events occurred. It hit his father so hard he was vividly reminded of the events at Pearl Harbor only this was worse, citizens not the nations finest army was being killed. Bobby's father insisted he join the army once more. But said no, and instead opened up a relief shelter of sorts for those who were wounded and helpless. While his father was mad, and his mother was supportive, eventually Bobby's father had a change of heart and was happy for his only son. He died a year later, his mother also died two months afterwards of a broken heart. By then Bobby had the library in London, he graduated from college state side and managed to buy a falling apart bookstore and reinvented it.
That is also where he met his first and only wife. She was absolutely in love with the man. The marriage was destined to last. In his eyes anyways, however with the fact that his wife can't conceived and support for the local bookstore was running dry. Basically just a mixture of things the marriage soon fallen apart. That is where Eliza came into the picture. Now, Eliza was only ten years old and while parents are necessary from time to time Bobby allowed her to be by herself if her mom had to run to the store and get some things. They played chess, read stories, even do some artwork.
Eliza eventually brought the attention of the local bookstore towards the city council, or at least her mom did. The city saved the bookstore by donating a lot of money to it. And for that Bobby was grateful. However, only one kid he didn't like. His name was Frankie. "I swear every time he comes in, he is either high as a kite, or looking like hell" Bobby said to himself.
Frankie was an eighteen year-old punk. Thinks he knows everything, He thinks he is going to be the President of Canada or something. The guy has no virtue only a typical teenage thug either looking for the next tail in town or the next drug deal. Each time the police came to arrest him, it's always the same sob story he always tells them. It's sad too, Frankie had potential, was a football player once upon a time, destined for greatness but then when his mother died of cancer. He lived with his drug-dealing dad, who was later arrested after a local neighbor snitched on him. Frankie lived with adoption home, after adoption home. By the time he was old enough had the money his last foster family in funny irony cut him loose, always lashing out at him for his poor grades and his stubborn and childish attitude at school. He bought his apartment and lived there ever since. He met Eliza only once, despite his idiotic friends telling him, "Hey dude, check that ass out. You should totally hit that". said one of Frankie's friends. Frankie lit up a cigarette, looked at her for a few minutes, and said to his friend, "Fuck off". He then flicked his cigarette at his friend and bounced from the scene.
So ironically, somewhere he has a heart. "Why is life so boring?! I mean, driving cars, racing, scoring chicks, getting high as an eagle. Seriously where is the real action in this freaking city". Frankie said as he overlooked London with a stern look.
Amongst the Winter Breeze -Prologue-
"Why is it always snowing?" said a woman looking out towards the city of London. In the background she hears the local news:
"And we are yet in another week without sunshine. A task force has been assembled by her royal majesty in order to combat this constant downpour of snow on our beloved city. Residents are advise to stay indoors till more news develops".
While the news people are chatting away this same woman hears coughing in the next room. "Mom" she said to herself, she got up from her chair and went into her moms bedroom. There she sees her ill mother dealing with the hardships of not only her old age, and poor choices she made, but the bad weather that is plaguing the city. "Thank you, sweetie *coughs*" the mother said as her only daughter covers her up, fixes her soup and gives it to her. "*sips* so? Aren't you suppose to be at school?" the mother said, looking at her daughter. The daughter sighed, and told her, "Classes are cancelled till the snow breaks up" she says hesitatingly on her words. The mother smiled and say, "It's okay, my darling angel. Maybe tomorrow" she said, the daughter then suddenly got angry at her and said to her own mother, "Tomorrow?! There won't be a tomorrow! God mom, you keeping hoping for the best, but here? In this city? Hope is truly fleeting". she storms out of her moms bedroom and goes outside, despite the warnings from the local news to stay indoors, the snow storm isn't that bad as the news made it out to be.
The rivers are iced up, and some roads are slick, but the majority of the city was and is opened for business. The daughter walks to her favorite bookstore, hoping to get another book to read. She enters the bookstore and encounters Bobby who is on the phone with someone. "I- I understand. But if we can work-" the daughter hears all of this while snooping around for a good book. She hears more of the conversation, "But. Of course I care what kind of dumb questio-" he yells back at the person over the phone. The phone called abruptly ended and Bobby stormed out to the counter noticing someone was in here. "Ah Eliza. Sorry you have to hear that" Bobby said as he hides his documents and stuff on the counter and puts it in his personal safe in the backroom. "Now what can I get for you?" he said to her, Eliza said, "Another Sherlock Holmes story" she said, Bobby smiled and said "Of course, I know just the one". Bobby went into the mystery & detective genre section of the library and picked out the book Eliza is mentioning or at least a guess. Bobby handed her the book, she paid for it. And later on leaves the bookstore.
Eliza looked up as she stares blankly at the sky, "Why can't my life be better than this?" she said to herself, the whole time she walked home, nothing was more on her mind than this question, "Come on girl. You want to be a theater performer, you want a nice man in your life. But it's always something" she said to herself, she got on the bus and looks at the random bystanders that also got on, "Why can't i be like him? Or her? Or those two lovely couple? Pfft only a fool can dream". After a few minutes the bus stopped at her destination, she got off and entered back into her house. The house itself is nice, modern. But sadly getting anything close by is a joke. Eliza got upstairs and notices her mom in the kitchen, wearing a robe and a hairnet of sorts. "Mom? Your suppose to be in bed!" she said as she hastily puts down her book she brought and rushed over, her mom stopped her and looked at her, "I want to do this myself. So you and I can have some, mom and daughter time" she smiled and continued to work on the dishes.
Eliza in shock by her mother's response, stepped away and sat at the table, she looked blankly at her and said to herself. "I love you mom".
"And we are yet in another week without sunshine. A task force has been assembled by her royal majesty in order to combat this constant downpour of snow on our beloved city. Residents are advise to stay indoors till more news develops".

*GAME* Godzilla: The Game (You had ONE job!)
![]() |
| This and other promotional images videos, etc. are the closest thing you will get to. |
Intro:
When it was announced a Godzilla game was going to be made for the current generation of gamers. Everyone who was a Godzilla fan turned into instant kids over the thought of playing Godzilla once again. However when this game was released it was anything but a Godzilla game.Main Body:
The game doesn't take long to install. This is the first signs of something that has gone wrong. After trailers, Q&A's from the developers. This game was going to stay true to the Godzilla franchise? In a sense, yes. However the execution itself was average to poor quality. What turned into a Godzilla Simulator/Fighting game. Just became the latter a simulation game.Pros & Cons:
Pros: Let me first state for the record. This game did every right in honoring the Toho monster name and his enemies or allies. Down to every little detail. Each monster is an exact representation of their movie counterpart. And that is about it. If you have been watching Godzilla movies as long as i have and played the previous games, then you should know what to do.Cons: The game had two huge major issues. One, it was limited to the PlayStation consoles (PS4, PS3) why on god's green earth did they do that? is beyond me. Imagine this game being on the PC or even on the Xbox consoles. It will give a wider feedback rather than a limited one. Two, Depending upon which console you have. The content is very limited to lackluster. The PlayStation 4 has online match making, while the PlayStation 3 version does not. The only thing you will be getting is the Legendary (Godzilla 2014) character skin.....that you can't used in the main "story mode' or anywhere else but a "King of Kaiju" mode. Another thing to throw out there, even though i only mentioned two is that, the controls while they are easy to use it get's kind of frustrating to move Godzilla around from time to time. Which of course in the movies Godzilla moves slow. But when you use to directional prompts: One to turn the camera, and one to turn Godzilla. You know you done and fuck it up. And of course, the standard technical issues. If you press the L2 button in a sea of buildings your framerate will drop and lag for about eh 10 seconds give it a second or two. Lastly is the repetitiveness in monsters. Yes, i know the majority of Godzilla films showed the same monsters over and over again. But here in this game, you will either face: Hedorah, Mothra (larvae and Butterfly), King Ghidroah, Gigan, Legendary Godzilla, and Mecha Godzilla. Some of the more rare monsters like the Destroyer and such are hard to "obtain" because they only had one film or whatever the case may be.
Oh and another thing the graphics are very poor no matter what console you used. This only goes for the cut scenes, but everything else is slightly above average.
Modes:
Gods of Destruction mode:It's the story mode. But before that, you are treated to a one timer (unless you have the PlayStation 4 version) to a tutorial session taking place in 1954. And obviously the controls are simple, but sadly you can't skip it till you completed it. After your main objective as Godzilla, is to wreck havoc across Japan in a wide variety of locations and situations. Some situations it will have Kaiju, or a timer. Hint (Only during timed missions": Wait till the Kaiju appears then destroy the generators. That way if the destruction level is not at 100% you will have time to destroy everything in your path. There is no restart button or no "character skin" selection you will be using the default Godzilla till you fulfill certain requirements in order to get the very, very last level. Sadly the game recycles locations just with a different color palette. The only "minor" difference is who is in charge, because depending upon who is in charge, the "threat level" may go up faster, the timer in a timed mission maybe either cut in half or slower, etc.
Another neat feature is the "height" in the game (lol yes i am serious, goes to show how bored i gotten typing this review). In this game depending upon how much havoc you wreck, you will be obtaining G energy, the more G-energy you get the bigger Godzilla gets, and depending upon what "skills" you get from Evolution mode, those pesky hard modes might become easier. Sadly, once the mode is complete the height is restarted to 50 meters. Way to go developers -.-"
King of Kaiju mode:
In the most lackluster mode, This mode offers just random non stop fighting scenarios against the same damn monsters. Oh and if you die, you won't be able to restart, it will take you right back to the main menu screen
Evolution mode:
Kaiju Guide:
I could've given this the same meme image. However, the reason i held back and started to type this one up. It's because if you barely watch any Godzilla movies, and just played the games. And what to know more about the monsters within this universe then this guide is perfect (somewhat) to the person or persons who don't watch Godzilla movies, but enjoyed the games.
Outro:
All in all this game is a "good" Godzilla simulator. But sadly with the developers holding back on not only content, but potential marketing to the other consoles plus PC. This game is just going to a typical past time game. Or if your a Godzilla fan, then consider this a collectors item and not an actual game you have to play.
Score: 3/10

Batman Beyond: Prologue
That's how it starts....
The year was 2019 A.D in a world where heroes and villains exist. There are those special individuals that are...well. Different. In the futuristic city of Neo-Gotham. One hero will make a return, and once again the city's criminal and corrupt will know fear.
A lone man was in a private jet. Looking upon the horizon towards Neo-Gotham. "We're home?" said the man as he rubbed his eye as he yawns and washes up for oncoming entourage of eager people waiting for him. For you see this man was special to the people of Neo-Gotham. His name was Terry McGinnis, he is the chairman and CEO of Wayne Enterprises or at least as some people call him, the "new guy" on the block. A man with a passion for justice and is free from the vices that corrupted and turned so many people into a former shell of themselves. "I know of one person who might want to see me, and *chuckles* she is still mad at me" Terry said to himself as he looked at an old photograph picture of Dana, his wife.
Years Earlier
Terry was still in High School. Getting straight A's, a fan to the ladies, and a punk to others. But no matter what you think of Terry, he was a shinning star in Neo-Gotham's future. One night however that changed. While he is on his way home from school, he notice some police cars in front of his house, it tragically turns out that a gang of thugs broken in, tried to steal stuff, and one thing led to another to the apparent death of his father. His mother, and his brother were okay. But they insisted they move out of Neo-Gotham in earnest once Terry graduates from high school. But Terry refused, being the hot-headed he is, he can't or won't except that the city in some way needs him.
To that degree he began snooping around, looking for those responsible. After some searching, he founded what he was looking for, "Looks like another drop will take place. Tonight". Knowing he can get into big trouble, he waited till everyone is asleep and decided to head off to the meeting location. Once he arrived, he noticed arm thugs both dressed into two different factions, and there he was. A man in a fashionable suit calling out the shots. "That must be him" Terry said.
Upon further examination, Terry notices a familiar insignia. "Wait that loo-" but before he could figure it out, police sirens were heard outside, "Shit! It's the police! SCATTER!" shouted the men in the room, Terry wanting to get his hands, knew it would be suicide to go up against these many people. He managed to take a photo of the guy and then ran off.
The next day a knock was heard at the front door. It was two police officers, "Madam, can we speak with Terry?" said one officer, Terry got up and peaked from the door. "Someone saw me?" he said to himself, Then came in the police commissioner. "May I? Speak to Terry, Ms. McGinnis" she said as she flashes her ID to Terry's mom. "Of- Of course" Ms. McGinnis said.
Terry knew he had to face the music, so he got dressed, washed up and went into the living room. "Terry, I will be frank with you. Your father had stumble onto something big. So big it could jeopardize the many years that this city knows peace".
"For your family's protection, we would like you to join a witness protection program, because apparently you knew the man that killed your father" the commissioner stated.
"Present Day"
Terry then got out of the jet, and made his way towards a limo. "Welcome home, sir" said his assistant. Terry nodded and got into the limo, it took about 2 hours to get to the Wayne Headquarters. As soon as the limo halted, cameras went off like light-bulbs in a darkened room "Terry, the people are eager to know your story!" said one reporter, Another reporter shouted, "Did you sold out Powers Industries to a level C company?" it gotten so chaotic the police barely got Terry in the building, Terry got into an elevator, along with his assistant. "So Mr. McGinnis. You have an appointment at 3, your mother send you flower, she couldn't be here for the occasion, oh and someone is here to see you as well" the assistant said all of this as she outlined in his PDA. Once they got off the elevator, he was shown to his office.
Once he got into his office however, He did instantaneously recognized the person. "Terry!" said the woman, as she rushed towards him and kisses him, It was none another than Dana. "I missed you" said Terry, the two of them kissed, and Dana tearfully stated to him, "I missed you too".
But before more can happen the phone rang. Terry picked it up, "Hello?" he said, then a voice was heard, "Ah Mr. McGinnis! You must be him, listen come by the courthouse, we have found something interesting in your will".

Batman Beyond Q&A Fan Fiction
So might as well answer some questions people might have about the stories.
1. When will this story take place?
Answer: This story will take place in the year 2019 A.D. Same as the TV show did.
2. Is Terry the main character?
Answer: Yes he is, to spice things up i will use some references and some other things from the Nolan trilogy, so don't expect his "pilot" to be the same as the TV show.
3. Are all the characters in the TV show, comic, etc. are they in this story series?
Answer: Yes and no, Some characters like Bruce Wayne isn't here. He exist in name, but not in appearance, Maxine is in this story series, but she is the Terry's version of Oracle.
4. Will the Comic/TV show villains be making an appearance?
Answer: Yes, but to make it interesting. I will make the characters feel realistic, so like Inque for example she will be a former column writer, she was fired for unknown reasons and to her end she will poison all of Neo-Gotham with deadly poisonous ink. I know it may sound silly, but like i stated before i am taking off pointers from the Nolan trilogy and Zack Snyder to give these villains a more realistic touch. Plus i will add new original villains to the table.
5. Will Batman's old foes make a presence?
Answer: Look at answer to number's 4 question. And if the Joker and Harley make an appearance it will have to be completely original.

*GAME* The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Review
Skyrim has made significant improvements from the previous games, but lack that certain charm from the previous games like Morrowind or Oblivion. For instance, the leveling up system has been improved but it makes leveling up not as fun as the class based system you see in the previous Elder Scroll games, the combat hasn't really all that improved just the standard block, and hit with a possible 50/50 critical depending upon how well you leveled up. If you use magic make sure you buff yourself and use strong magicka spells.
The world itself is pleasing enough, with the right ENB mods and mods in general you can make those screenshots look beautiful and epic. You will lose hours on end not just by doing quests here and there but just by exploring the vast lands of Skyrim and seeing the world change and react to things that you do or nature or even the NPC's.
The NPC's in this game is far better than the ones seen in Oblivion. Not only do they interact with you but they interact in a way which feels almost life like. They will still do their tasks while at the same time talk to you. And thank god the voice-overs are vary rather than the same like the ones seen in Oblivion. Plus each one has their own 'background' or particular quest which makes them even more interesting to chat with and of course help them in the time of need if they require it.
The DLC's themselves just adds more layers to Skyrim. Dawnguard, Hearthfire, and Dragonborn gives new powers, abilities, lore, shouts, armor and weapons, plus locations, quests and NPC's. The standard DLC for an RPG. Except for Hearthfire, which is an add-on not DLC. Hearthfire is basically (almost) like the Sims. This add-on just adds adoptions, homesteads, and new NPC's and a few raident quests.
Skyrim without mods is still great, but just a bit buggy and glitchy. The modding community has helped making the game great. And then some! I mean not only do you got a ton of Mod reviewers out there (Bordual, and Gopher, MMOxReview and Top 5 Skyrim mods of the week from GameSpot) plus many more. But also talented artists (painters, and drawers for example), music composers, fan fiction writers, short videos, parodies, playthroughs. I mean so much more!
Skyrim is a great game to play. A great experience.
Recommend it!
