Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel first thoughts

Right now I'm about 7 hours into the new Borderlands game and I'm playing as Athena.  I was really excited about the game, I love the others and was happy to find out what made Handsome Jack who we all loved to hate. So far though, I've been a bit let down.

Pros-
Zero gravity is a lot fun
Plenty of loot
It's nice seeing some of the same old faces

Cons-
Not as funny
Buggy
Invisible walls
Those how the heck do I get there moments.
to much platforming


Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel isn't a horrible game, but it's not even close to being as good as the past ones. It almost feels like they took a DLC and tried to turn it into it's own game. I'm hoping it picks up as I continue playing but I'm not holding my breath.

Breaking Bad Finale Review

So the end of an era has  just blasted over the waves with the final episode of Breaking Bad. I wont be giving out any spoilers so don't quake in fear. The final episode was what final episodes is supposed to be. It wasn't one of those endings that leaves the audience to guess at what happens to the character you've been watching for seasons. They did a beautiful job at finishing all the stories happening in the story leaving me with a sense of conclusion. I just hope other shows and movies catch a hint from this amazing finale and learn to finish their shows!

Mark of the Ninja Review, Dishonored First DLC

Mark of the Ninja Review! With the big fall sale on Steam I found Mark of the Ninja on sale for only seven dollars and couldn't resist, after all what's life with out ninjas. I wasn't expecting much when I started but was pleasantly surprised. I haven't had so much fun in a long time. You play the roll of a ninja reaping revenge for the an attack on your clan. The twist? You've been marked with tattoos that are supposed to give you super powers but will eventually lead to your madness. In order to save the world from the madness ninjas of the past with the tattoos have killed themselves. Do you go mad? I'm not going to tell ya, you're going to have to play the game to find out. The graphics remind me of "Samurai Jack," for anybody that remembers that show. It's a fun cartoon look, and I think that makes the brutal stealth kills look even better. Along the way you'll get different gear and skills. Gear ranges from noise makers to spik...

Another Day Another Bounty 10.24.13

That's right it's a new day and another bounty has been released for all of us hunters in the Borderlands 2 Loot Hunt. Today's bounty is DJ Tanner , he can be found in Magnys Lighthouse . This hunt is another that is in the Captain Scarlett DLC. He should drop the " Tidal Wave " that can be used for the community bounty. Speaking of the community bounty, today's community bounty is Sand Worm Queens . You may remember fighting one while doing the My life for a sand sandskiff mission  early on in the DLC. A Sand Worm Queen is what leaps out of the sand and swallows Lionel's engine capacitor. I found the best place to find the Sand Worm Queen in Wurmwater just north of the Rustyard exit in a crater. You actually have to hope out of your skiff for them to spawn and they don't always spawn. I have a picture of the location down below.
