Seventy Sixth Post















ROFLMAO! Microsoft has now decided to fix all 2005 xbox 360's for free, but Zack spent $130 to get it fixed. That is what happens when you use myspace Zack!

Counter Strike 1.6
: A good game, but illegal so you can only play against bots. The bots play almost exactly like people do online, except you can not trick them like you can real people and the bots sometimes glitch up when they move in opposite directions and crash into each other. An example of this is how they can see you when in dark areas and also how camping does not work. This game is also in English, but there is not much to read.












Three Kingdoms Records XI
: This is the literal translation of the title from my grandfather. This game will come out in the future to America probably under the name Dynasty Warriors VI (Dynasty Warriors V is the newest in America). The game is in Japanese, so it is unplayable even to me. This is even more unfortunet than normal because th Asian versian is better than the American one, since it is based off of strategy and not fighting.














Morrowind
: Huzzah! It is Morrowind in computer format. It comes in two modes, Chinese and English. This is pretty much the best RPG I have ever played other than Oblivian. The only drawback to the game is that you can not install mods since it is an illegal version. This is more than counterbalanced by the map maker, where you get to make your own world!














Command and Conquer 3
: Arg! they have tricked me sort of. It is not Comand and Conquer 3, but Comand and Conquer 2. Comand and Conquer 3 has not even come out yet. With this game there are two command and conquer 2's in one. It is a pretty cool game, but unfortunetly it is in Chinese. I have memorized everything in the game though so I am fine. A short description about the game would be that if you get Age of Empires 2 and Comand and Conquer 2 and average them out, you would get Starcraft.














Warcraft 3
: Whoa! It is Warcraft 3 in English. I have only played the skirmish mode against comps so far. I like Starcraft more, but it is probably because I have played it more. Warcraft 3 is good in that there are 5 races instead of just 3, and heros level up and gain powers the more they fight, so there is a little RPG type play in the RTS. Also there is a thing called upkeep, which basically rewards for and makes you use small armies and micro to win battles instead of just massing units like in other RTS.
In China, I spent too much money on gifts for my family, so I must sell some to make back what I have lost. I will sell the first game bought for $10 and for each additional game bought I will give a discount price of $5. Age of Empires 3 was expensive since it was supposedly legitimate so that one is $15.
