Update: Mon March 7th 2011

where to start.

Well trimester 2 has begun and is a good bit into it now, its actually very hard this semester.

I have a 3000 word essay to write on how i am going to write my 10k dissertation next year if i choose to go through with honours year. and right now i have a 300 word report on how to write art Methodology and applying that to my own dissertation idea.

For my Graphics and Illustration class i am creating ...yes creating a book , design,cover and text  etc so i'm basing mines on lord of the rings and making a story arc. Looking at character,backgrounds and colours to go with it this is hard.

And from digital media- i'm animating to a poem with heavy action script.... I wasn't best round with action script in college last year.. so its a stretch trying it again. ahaha. I've chosen Edgar allan poe's dreamland to animate. quite good .

hopefully a wild night out n town soon also. End of march i think. go mwi lmao. ive already been on like 6 the last few weeks.... be skinto by the end of these .

new year and new pains.

Well its the new year, and after a long dull and boring festive period.... i finally played a game .
I was playing the harry potter and the deathly hallows for xbox with kinect enabled features( still haven't used that yet)  the first recognisable thing is the rendering  of the game its rather shit, some of its good and has a fu2 engine for it im assuming due to the nature of scenery that have realistic movements even down the the smallest of details. The bigger half of the rendering though it extremely poor with   pixellation on some of the imagery and lines across surfaces that should not be there.

Spell casting : EA bright Light removed the self spell casting feature that was in the previous  game  "Half Blood Prince" which is a shame because it  was more inviting to  use the thumb stick to cast the spells and remember the order in which to move the stick, oh well .

the Actual spell casting is a simple  shoot and kill method like all action shooters have , zoom in-target- aim-fire except not with guns but with spells  sound effects are also rather gun type such as " expulso"  which sounds like a tommy gun firing  .

Game and story telling : Due to the nature of the game , some features had to be removed from the story to make smooth game play, they give challenges in between the cut scenes to pass the time when  say hermoine is casting protection spells around the camp or when they are investigating  the ministry  and how to get inside. These challenges are to rescue muggle borns  from snatchers and death eaters  from death  and or to kill as many of your foes  in a certain amount of time.

The beasts that you face  are good Dementors,Acromantula(spiders),Dragons, Pixies, Whomping Willows ( don't attack but just dodge these willows).

Death Eaters and Snatchers : the snatchers look like over grown Racoon  if you look at a picture of them you'll see why, death eaters are just standard  cone shaped  people   not racoons.

part from the flaws and some reviwes by others its not half bad  passes the time  and if you know how to enjoy paying  then its worth it, but if you get bored easily by games best not for you, fans and people who play to enjoy or just play for the sake of playing  then ok might be ok .

try  kinect features once ive completed the rest of itT
