I haven't updated much so I guess I should try harder. So I will give you my opinion on 5 games and apps I have used or played recently.
Resident Evil 6 - PS3 - If you know me at all you know I love zombies. RE6 actually has zombies in it again. Depending which campaign you play of course. The game is fun. Not too long but very linear. I recommend playing with a friend. Its a lot better. I would say to buy it now. It is worth the $20-$30 price tag. 2 players recommended.
Rating - 7.5/10
Borderlands 2 - PS3 - I never beat the first one but have enjoyed most of 2. It seems very open and works with my ADD. Wandering around killing things never gets old. My main issue is that it seems to really wants you to buy the DLC class. I am not big on buying DLC. I'd rather wait for a GOTY edition. ~$25 I'd say get it.
Rating - 7.5/10
The Simpson's Tapped Out - App - I got this for my phone and have done pretty well with it. It's a free app on the Google Store and I would assume it would also be that way for the Apple store. It is a God game like Populas and Sim City. My main issue is the donuts. I can accidentally hit some small bar on my phone and waste 2 donuts on a 45 second house. Lame. Also, why does it take 24 hours to do every building?
Rating - 6.5/10
Jurassic Park: Park Builder - App - I have this on my Kindle Fire (review later) and it runs very smoothly. Building my own park full of dinosaurs seems like fun. At the beginning it really was, but now its work. Everything is expensive and there is not much to do once you reach level 20. It's free and was fun for a week or so.
Rating 5.0/10
Marvel's Avengers Alliance - Facebook Game - I have a love / hate relationship with this game. It is free but it gives huge advantages to people who use cash to buy gold. Buying gold lets people buy better weapons, characters, and items. Don't get me wrong I do like having a team of my favorite heroes. I just prefer to have a shot in pvp.
Rating 8.0/10

My best and worst of 2012: Movies
The year ended and I have nothing better to do then to write lists. So... here we are...
Movies:
- Favorite Family Film - ParaNorman - Brave did not live up to my Pixar expectations. ParaNorman had a kid who could see dead people and a cute fat kid with hummus. Also it had Zombies... in a kids movie!
- Favorite Comedy - 21 Jump Street - Ted was not as funny as I expected but I am not really a Masky Mark fan. But to be fair I am not a big Jonah Hill or Channing Tatum fan either. Actually I do not really enjoy either of them. But they clicked in 21 Jump Street. It was funny and did not try too hard. Also hada couple of cool cameos.
- Favorite Horror - Cabin in the Woods - Cabin was pretty much the only Horror film I have watched more then once this year. I had to just to catch all the little things you might miss.
- Favorite Action - Marvel's The Avengers - The Marvel Super Superhero movie directed by Joss Whedon was bad ass. Other then oddities like Black Widow knocking out a bad guy with her hair and why War Machine couldn't join in on the fun.
- Favorite Movie - Marvel's The Avengers - Surprised. Yeah me too.
- Biggest Disappointment - The Dark Knight Rises - Ok this might go on for a long while...
TDKR was a fine enough film full of huge plot holes but I think my biggest issue is that they turned Batman into a little bitch and pretty much means that The Joker won. The Joker's job in The Dark Knight was to kill The Batman. Well after the events of TDK the Batman was not seen for 8 years. Pretty much killing the Batman.
In Batman Begins Bruce Wayne traveled around the world for years. Learning and looking for ways to stop injustice. Doing whatever it took. He returns to Gotham and works hard at it. But he falls in love with his childhood friend who he never even dated. Batman became a love sick puppy? What happened to his mission? Batman quit because the girl he liked died.
Don't say he quit because he took the blame for Dent. Batman was a vigilante. He was going to be hunted by the police anyway. Its not like he couldn't escape them... like he did in each movie.
Now let us look at the new characters we got:
Bane - They used none of Bane's comic book back story. No Venom. No King of Pena Dura prison. They made him an English Mercenary with a speaking/ breathing issue.
Selina Kyle - She was never called Catwoman only a Cat Burglar. I think Anne Hathaway did a good job even though the romance angle with Batman seemed to have no chemistry.
John Blake - Who was this guy? Why did he have more screen time then Alfred? Then Gordon? Then Fucking Batman!?!?!? Yeah and the tact on Robin thing was BS. Hell they should have named him McInnis if they wanted to use that ending.
Nolan ruined the Batman Mythos. Bruce Wayne is broke? Gotham is taken hostage? Batman retired after maybe 2 years of Crusading... I don't get it.
