Xbox one release! My top 3 Next Gen game must-haves.

Ermargherd, the Xbox One is now out! To all of you who now have proud ownership of this fantastic next generation gaming console, congrats. I don't mean to choose a favorite between my children, but I am loving the Xbox One so far in comparison to the PS4! (despite the 720p vs. 1080p problem). Microsoft has once again, won over my heart.
Here are my top three purchases for the xbox one and why:

1). Dead Rising 3
I'm a zombie-slaying addict. The Walking Dead comics and even the show, it's amazing. Resident evil 5 and Last of Us were my favorite zombie video games leading up to this moment in time. Dead Rising 3 is the most amazing zombie game I've ever played. When it comes to killing zombies, I go for two things: Creativity & Quantity. This game, like the other Dead Rising games, allows me to kill with creativity. Only now, the creativity expands because you play the game as engineer which means forging your own weapons and machines without a workbench.
Quantity is a big part of the game. Basically, there are zombies on the screen at all time. Right in the beginning of the game we are introduced to a massive horde of zombies. We're talking about 1,000 zombies on the screen at a time. Oh yeah. This game is a zombie slayer's heaven.

2.) My next game must have is Assassin's Creed Black Flag. I've always been an Assassin's Creed fan. It's my favorite video game series! Some might argue that it's loosing it's flavor but I have to disagree. This new Assassin's Creed is a much more open-world game with many more new features added to it. I love exploring in my games, and here is a fantastic game for that! Not to mention the fact that I get to freaking harpoon sharks.

3.) Now finally, my third must-have is Battlefield 4. This is a game that applaud. It was so beautifully composed for the next gen. The graphics are incredible and the Levolution makes this game perfectly compatible to our beloved new consoles. It really just flushes COD Ghosts down the toilet. Now see ya  guys, I'm going to go blowup a skyscraper in Siege of Shanghai.

I was told by a muggle-girl on my second day back to college that you aren't a real nerd unless you play Black Ops, Nazi Zombies 24/7.
What did I learn this week?
I hate everyone -_-

Release date of Xbox One.

The Xbox One release date has been announced to be November 22, the Sunday before Black Friday. Yes folks, between the releases of the PS4, Xbox One, and Black Friday, I foresee November being a month of bloodshed and riots. May the best of men survive.
Word of advice: pre-order yourself a next generation console, don't wait for them to hit the stores.

Fall 2013 Video Game Must-Haves Youtube Vlog link!

Here is the Vlog I made about my fall 2013 video game must-haves. I finally got around to editing it. Basically, it's the same material but much more psycho babble because I don't know how to physically carry out a half-decent conversation. Subscribe!!!

FALL 2013 VIDEO GAME MUST-HAVES.

Hey guys! Today I just want to talk about some of the games that will be released in the near future. It looks like it’s going to be another great year for games. With the upcoming release of the Xbox one and the PS4, I can guarantee we are all going to be reaching the New Year as broke as ever. But happy! So here are some games that I am planning on purchasing.

                Starting at the beginning of the timeline, my first buy of this fall season will be Young Justice: Legacy. I am a huge fan of DC comics and I love the Justice League. The show Young Justice is pretty good, which is why this game spiked my interest.

                Next, and as a Marvel Comics gal, I cannot contain my excitement for this, is LEGO: Marvel Super Heroes. I am a sucker for all LEGO video games. They only seem to be getting better. LEGO’s more recent Lord of the Rings video game has completely set the bar for me. I feel they have come a long way as far as character development and the distinction of each adventure they take us on. You can say I have high expectations for this LEGO game. They have included over a hundred Marvel characters including of course, our favorites and the most popular of the X-men and Avengers.  The trailers have me counting down the days until the release date. 

                A video game that I just recently read about called Rain also caught my eye. Rain is about an invisible world filled with lost spirits that is exposed only during rainfall. In this game you play the role of a boy who stumbles into this world by mistake, becoming invisible himself, and has to find his way out. I was really intrigued by this game while reading about it, the plot is unique and it’s just not my everyday video game.

Now let’s talk about my favorite video game trilogy. I know I’m not the only one who can hardly wait for Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag. Pirates of the Caribbean meets Assassin’s Creed in this sea-struck game set in 1715. From what I've seen so far, I’m in love all over again. I just find these games so captivating. Maybe I’m just a ruthless assassin at heart. Not to mention the parkour in these games are off the chain. Overall, I’m pretty excited to see how this game differentiates from the others.

I don’t think I’ve ever died more in a video game than I do in this, but another Battlefield (Battlefield 4) is going to be released October 29^th, as you probably already know (Which just happens to be the same release date as Assassin’s Creed). I really do die so much more in these games than any other video game I’ve ever played. Yet, I still can’t help but dish out $60 to go through the same frustration that I face in every Battlefield.

Last but hopefully not least, Call of Duty 5: Ghosts. Here’s to hoping the campaign turnout doesn’t suck as bad Black Ops2.

Jessica Danae Miller: Future career at IGN?

Hey bloggers! So recently I've taken action on my dream of landing a job at IGN. How long have I wanted to work there? Years and years. Basically, since I've discovered it. However, I've only started my research just recently. I can't just go around photographing myself licking video game consoles and remote controllers. That won't show how dedicated I am nor would it earn me much respect. Buckle up bloggers, I'm cracking down on my number of posts each week. You can expect quite a few reviews from me. If course, the first few will most likely be crap until I get the feel for things. I'm going to show IGN how dedicated, passionate, and worth hiring I am.

Zombie Apocalypse. Are you prepared?

Hey you! Yes, you! Do YOU have a plan for the zombie apocalypse? I hope so. Everyone should have at least two plans. A good habit you should get into is devising a plan everywhere you go. Shopping trip at Walmart? What if it went viral while you're putting a loaf of bread in your shopping cart. Getting a haircut? You'd better have a plan! Zombies with scissors are horrifying. A trip to an amusement park? You're probably screwed but you still need a plan. Also, I would start stocking up on weapons for the zombie apocalypse. Weapons and supplies. Here's a list of what you may want to acquire:
Water bottles
Travel size medical pack
Snacks that won't expire
A source of light
A source of warmth
A knife
Baseball bat
Katana
Bow & Arrows
Battle ax
M16
Companions.
