Hi girls and guys!

Today I am going to talk about a really fun online game for your computer, Flyff! It is an online game that comes from Korea (which means the graphics are really awesome!). It’s also really great because it’s free! If you plan on downloading this game, I suggest using the down loader from Big Download because it works the best.

World Map

There are a lot of continents that you can go to in Flyff, so you’re not always on the same continent as you were before. When you first make your character, they always start out on Flaris. I would say that once you reach level 20, you should then fly to the continent that has medium-level monsters so you can get more experience that is called Saint Morning. You should train in Saint Morning until you are around level 45 (The Continent of Garden of Rhisis would be a good place to train if you’re around level 30 too) and then you should fly to Darkon 1 to do your training up until level 60. After you do the job change quest and once your about level 75, you should do the rest of your training in Darkon 3, where there are really high level monsters where you would get a lot of experience.

In Flyff, when you make your account you can have more than 1 character on your account. You can have 24 characters in total, 3 on each server. When you start playing a new character, you start out as a Vagrant. Every person who makes a character always starts out as a Vagrant until you reach level 15. Once your level 15, you can do the job change quest so that you have a new job (I did the Mercenary job quest on my first person). There are four jobs that you can choose from, and once you reach level 60 on your character, you can do the second job change quest. Here are the classes and what they are good at.

Acrobat

Acrobats in Flyff are the people who use ranged weapons, such as bows and amazingly they can also use yoyos. The bows don’t exactly do as much damage as the yoyos, and you have to but A LOT of arrows if you plan on being an acrobat who uses bows. If you are going to use yoyos, I suggest that you use most of your skill points on Strength because it makes the yoyo do more damage. Acrobats mainly use their skill points on Strength, Stamina or Dexterity because they have no need of Intelligence.

Jester

If you are an Acrobat, at level 60 you can choose to become a Jester. The Jester uses the yoyo to do their ranged attacks. They have quite a bit of good skills because they can enchant their yoyo to inflict poison damage, fire damage or something called Enchant Blood (I’m not quite sure what it is). If you are an Acrobat who is going to be a jester, use all of your stat points on Strength and Stamina because Dexterity increases the striking power of the bow.

Ranger

If you are an Acrobat, at level 60 you can choose to become a Ranger. The Ranger uses the bow to perform their attacks. They will need a lot of arrows too because you can’t use the bow without any arrows. Rangers aren’t particularly strong unless they have full Dexterity so they can hit high. You are still going to want to have a bit of Stamina so your defence is really good.

Mercenary

In Flyff, the Mercenary is the character who uses swords. Although a sword might sound good to you, think carefully about whether or not you would pick a Mercenary as your job because they hit very low unless they have a lot of Strength, and even when their Strength is really good they still don’t hit as high as you would want them to. A Mercenary would mainly want Strength with a bit of Stamina so you have some defence.

Blade

If you are a Mercenary, at level 60 you can choose to become a Blade. Blades are your basic assassins, Hitting very fast and quite high. The best thing about the Blade is that they can double wield, which means you can wield two swords when you’re a Blade. Although Blades hit quite fast, I would recommend getting at least 30 Dexterity so they hit even faster than they already do. Blades also have very high defence, which makes them a very good class.

Knight

If you are a Mercenary, at level 60 you can choose to become a Knight. Knights have the highest defence out of every class in the game, which makes them very hard to hit. The bad thing about Knights is that they can only wield two-handed weapons, which means they attack very slowly. Knights also hit high too, but since they hit so slowly I don’t really think you would want to be a Knight.

Magician

In Flyff, the Magician is probably one of the best classes, considering how high they hit when they are a very low level (The Magician is my personal favorite class in the game because they can hit 1200 when they are level 25, meaning that they kill most monsters in 4-8 hits.). Magicians have slightly low defence, so I suggest buying items that will get your defence up like a Plug Earring or something. Magicians use Intelligence so they can hit higher, and both of their second jobs will probably need to have full Intelligence to hit really high.

Elementor

If you are a Magician, at level 60 you can choose to become an Elementor. Elementors are a very good class because they use spells that have different elements to their advantage. Say if you are killing a monster that has an element of fire, you could just use your water-type spells so you are hitting more effectively on them. The Elementor is really good, but their armour looks slightly like a graduating student’s robe and hat.

Psykeeper

If you are a Magician, at level 60 you can choose to become a Psykeeper (Which I plan to do once I’m level 60). Psykeepers use slightly evil or dark spells to kill their enemies. The Psykeeper has really cool armour, and they can hit probably between 20000-50000 once they are the highest level, which means that they pretty much hit the highest in the game, along with the Elementor hitting probably about the same.

Assist

In Flyff, the Assist is the character that can heal, revive and buff other characters (Buffs can do a number of things, from getting you better defence to making you hit an additional 40 damage). Assists can either use a Stick or a Knuckle to attack with. If you’re an Assist, you should put most of your stat points on intelligence so that your buffs last longer.

Billposter

If you are an Assist, at level 60 you can choose to become a Billposter. Billposters are one the most self-efficient classes in the game because they can still use buffs, but since they use Knuckles they are still very good at attacking. The Billposter’s skill moves mainly consist of AoE attacks (Area of Effect, which means they can hit multiple enemies with these attacks at once). AoE moves are really good if you are being attacked by 2 or more monsters so you can kill them faster. A Billposter will probably want to have a balance between Strength, Stamina and Intelligence, or just go full Intelligence and some Strength, or have around 90 Intelligence and full Strength.

Ringmaster

If you are an Assist, at level 60 you can choose to become a Ringmaster. Ringmasters are an essential character to have if you are training with your friends at monsters that are a higher level than you because the Ringmaster’s skills are mainly all buffs. If you are a Ringmaster, I suggest getting full intelligence so that your buffs last long, and than some Stamina so you have good defence and health (Stamina puts up your defence as well as your health).

Pets

You can have a variety of pets in the game. To obtain a pet, you will first need an egg. Eggs can drop from all monsters that are level 20 and up. You could also just buy a pet from some one’s shop in the game. If you get an egg, you are going to need a lot of pet feed to get it’s experience up. Once you get an egg, talk to the Pet Tamer NPC in any city to start the quest that you can hatch your egg from. You must get your egg’s experience to 99.99%, and than talk to the Pet Tamer. The Pet Tamer will then hatch your egg, and you can discover what kind of pet your egg was holding. From an egg, you can get a: Babari Lion, White Tiger, Old Fox, Rabbit, Unicorn, Griffin or a Dragon. Your pet has ranks, and as you get your pet up to higher ranks, you will discover that the bonus it gives you will become larger, and it’s color will change. Their are ranks: D, C, B, A and S. Rank S is the best rank, and once your pet is rank S, it’s true color will be revealed. Your pet has lives once you get it. If your pet runs out of lives, you will have to revive it. You can’t revive a rank D or a rank C pet, so if your rank D or rank C pet runs out of lives, there will be no way to revive it. If you are going to buy a pet, don’t buy the one that sounds the coolest to you because certain pets go better with certain classes because of the bonus it will give you. What I mean by that is that if you are a Magician, the only pet that you would really want would either be a Unicorn or an Old Fox, which means that a Magician has no need of a Dragon because of it’s bonus. Pay close attention to what the bonus of your pet is so that you can make sure that your pet is a good pet for the class that you have chosen.

You are probably wondering why this game is called Flyff. If you are, it is called that because once you reach level 20, you can buy a board or a broom and fly around to your destination, using the WASD keys to move around your board or broom, henceforth, Fly For Fun.

Once you reach level 120, you can then start the Master Quest. The Master Quest is very hard because your level gets put back to 60, and then you have to get it back to level 120 with 99.99% experience so you can then start the Hero Quest. Once you have finished the Hero Quest, you will no longer see your displayed level. Instead, it will just say you’re a Hero.

I think that this is a really great game, and since it’s online, it just adds even more to the fun. If you would like more information on this game, you should visit the Flyff Wiki. I am giving this game a 10/10.

Hello readers!

This is my review of The Lord of The Rings: Conquest, a game that is out for the Xbox360, the PS3, the PC, and the Nintendo DS.

In this Lord of The Rings game, you can select a campaign to play. You can either pick The Rise of Sauron campaign, or the good team campaign. I can’t remember what the good team campaign is called. You don’t play as the main characters; instead, you play as a soldier on that side. There are four classes of soldiers that you can choose and those are: Warrior, Archer, Mage and Scout. My favorite class is either Warrior or Archer because the warriors have really powerful attacks and the Archers shoot very fast.

Warriors have very powerful attacks because there is a bar that shows how much special attack you have left, and then you can power up your sword so it looks like it is on fire and the attacks that it does when it is are much more powerful than normal. The Archers are very good because you can make their arrows turn on fire or poisoned as their special attack and they just shoot very fast. You still have to wait a while after you use their special attack so it has time to recharge. It’s really funny on The Rise of Sauron campaign on the last level when you pick Archer because you have to kill Hobbits and they die in 1 hit pretty much with anything and when you shoot them with an arrow they go flying and look like they’re a rag doll or something because their body swings around like it has no bones.

The Scout class is pretty good too because their special attack lets them turn invisible so you can sneak up behind your enemies and back stab them. Back stabbing them does quite a bit of damage and it usually will kill your enemy in 1 hit, and pretty much all the time it does. The Scout also has something that when you throw it, it explodes and usually kills them in 1 hit. This bomb does much more damage to Ents because it makes them catch on fire, and since they are trees they are very vulnerable to that. It is also really effective when you are being swarmed by Hobbits on the last level on The Rise of Sauron campaign because when you throw it at something and when it hits them, it automatically explodes and when there are a whole bunch of Hobbits in 1 area, it will usually kill them all. The Mage class isn’t very good because their attacks aren’t that great, unless you use their melee attack instead of using their weak magic attack. There are only 2 things that are good about Mages and that is that they can make a shield, protecting the people in it from arrows and other Mages’ attacks, and the Mage can also heal other soldiers, otherwise it would be hard not to die every once in a while. You can level up your classes so that they do more damage or so that they’re just better than they were before.

In the different campaigns you can play, the levels are also different and once you have beaten that campaign, you can choose the level you want to start at. My favorite level on The Rise of Sauron campaign would have to be the last level where you have to kill the Hobbits because it is very funny when they die. Although that level may sound easy, you also have to deal with the Ents that wander around killing your soldiers, and you have to be careful not to get swarmed by the Hobbits because even though they just use tiny little knifes, if you get swarmed they can be quite good, and if you pick the Archer class, you may not think to look behind you or right below you because you wouldn’t expect them to be there, but you’ll notice if they are attacking you because your health bar goes down when they hit you. You also have to watch out for the Hobbit Archers because they still shoot really fast and they are hard to see, but once you spot them they die easily like all other Hobbits do.

The hardest level on the Rise of Sauron campaign is when you go to the place that has the Elves. The Elves are very powerful and their Archers are really good. Their Mages are even a little good too. The easiest people to kill on this level would be the Elf Grunts(each team has Grunts to help them out except for the Hobbits; they are very easy to kill and die in 1 hit pretty much with anything like Hobbits do). In The Elf place you have to fight 2 bosses and they are Legolas and the Elf King. They are both very hard to kill, and Legolas is probably the best Archer in the game. I think the Elf King has a sword, but I can’t exactly remember. When you are fighting them I suggest that you should try being a Scout so you can turn invisible and back stab the Elf King or Legolas. If you choose Archer to fight them, make sure you are in a spot that is well hidden so Legolas can’t find you and shoot you.

The funnest level on the good team campaign would probably be the battle on Pellinor Fields because there are these large elephant-like creatures that you can climb up and kill. I only played this game on the PS3, so I’m not sure how you would climb up them on other systems. How you climb up them on the PS3 version is like this. When you get close enough to one of the elephant’s front legs, it will tell you to push a button so you can start climbing it. While you are climbing it, it will tell you to push other buttons so you can stay on it and make it up to the head. Once you are on it’s head, it will tell you to push another button to kill it.

This is a really great game, and if you are a fan of The Lord of The Rings, you will most likely love this game. It’s not that much like any of the other Lord of The Rings games because you play as a soldier instead of the main characters, but if you liked any of the other games you will probably like this one a lot too. Although this game is really good, it gets repetitive after a while, and the enemy A.I. is very bad, but sometimes bad enemy A.I. can actually be pretty funny because your enemies don’t even bother coming up to you. If you have the PS3 version though, it’ll still be fun because you can try to get all of the trophies. I am giving this game a 10/10.

Hi!

This is my review of Final Fantasy XII: Revenant Wings, a game that is out for the Nintendo DS.

This game is really fun. It is fun because you don’t play as a character, you can control them all at once. When you go into a battle, You can select your creatures by tapping them with the stylus and you tap where you want them to go. If you want to move a lot of them at once, you can draw a square and it selects them all, and then you can tap them where you want them to go.

The creatures you control are called Espers. There are 3 kinds of Espers. These are: Ranged, Flying and Melee. You can use their type to your advantage because there is a combat triangle with them. Flying is good against Melee and Melee is bad against Flying. Ranged is good against Flying and Flying is bad on Ranged. Finally, Melee is good on Ranged and Ranged is bad on Melee. Some of them are really dangerous and some of them are very harmless. Before you go into a battle, you go to the battle screen. This is when you can change the Espers in your group before you enter the battle. Espers have a certain rank too. They can have a rank of I, II or III. Rank I is just the basic rank and rank II is the medium Espers and rank III are really good Espers, or Espers that will help you the most, but you can only have one rank III Esper with you.

 There are about 50 or so Espers that you can buy in the game with your Auracite. Your enemies have creatures too, but thye are not Espers; they are Yarhi. Although the Yarhi look almost exactly the same as Espers, they are actually quite different. Espers are usually bright colors and Yarhi are usually very dark colors or different shades of dark colors. My favorite Esper is either Shiva, Ultima or Mateus. Shiva, Ultima and Mateus are all rank III Espers. Shiva is the rank III ranged-water Esper, Mateus is the rank III flying-water Esper and Ultima is the rank III healing Esper, but Ultima can also do a lot of damage with one of her moves.

When you go to the battle screen, you can also select leaders for your battle. The leaders are the actual characters in the game and the Esper that is their type will be following them. Here are the leaders that you start out with : Vaan, Penelo, Kytes and Filo. Vaan is melee typed, Penelo is healing typed, Kytes is ranged typed and Filo is flying typed. My favorite character is Vaan. You also have to buy your characters items that they can equip or wear.

I think this game is really fun, but if the graphics were better I would have given it a better rating, and because I am stuck on the last few levels. I am giving this game a 7/10.

Hi!

This is my review of Star Wars: The Force Unleashed, a game that is available for The Nintendo DS, PS3, PS2, PSP, Wii and the Xbox 360.

This Star Wars game is unlike any I have ever played before. You play as Darth Vader’s Secret Apprentice. In the first mission you play as Darth Vader. You are on the Wookie planet of Kashyyk. Your goal is to find the Rogue Jedi and kill him. Vader’s apprentice is the Rogue Jedi’s son. Darth Vader doesn’t want anyone to know that he let his son live, so he becomes his apprentice.

As you progress through the game you unlock new costumes that you can wear. You can change your costume by going to the customize costume screen on the Rogue Shadow( your ship). My favorite costume is probably either the Sith Robes or the Ceremonial Jedi Robes. Another cool costume is the Correllian Flight Suit. I didn’t unlock my costumes, instead I used the cheat code GRANDMOFF, which unlocks all the costumes for you.

When you kill a person you get Jedi Points. Once you have enough Jedi Points you can upgrade one of your Force Powers, or you can learn an entirely new one. My favorite Force Power is Lightning Because it kills enemies really fast. Another good Force Power is the Force Push because once it is on its maximum, your enemies go flying when you use it.

There isn’t that many levels in this game, but my favorite level would either be The Jedi Temple or Kashyyk(not at the beginning of the game when you are Darth Vader, but when you go there as The Apprentice). The hardest level would have to be Felucia because There is these things called Rancors, which are these really big bull things. The hardest Rancor is the Bull Rancor because it is the strongest. In the last level, you have to fight Darth Vader and the Emperor.

When you are in the Rogue Shadow, you can either customize your costume, Go to the Extras place where you can input cheat codes, view and upgrade your Force Powers and customize your Lightsaber. If you are going to use cheats, these are probably the best cheats to use. GRANDMOFF, which unlocks all the costumes for you,  VERGENCE, which gives you unlimited Force Power, CORTOSIS, which makes you immune to every single type of damage, LIGHTSABER, which makes your Lightsaber do massive damage, COUNTDOOKU, which makes all of your combos the max level, KATARN, which makes all of your Force Powers the max level, ZABRAK, which unlocks Darth Maul as a skin and SPEEDER, which gives you one million Force Points.

Here is a link to a page about Star Wars: The Force Unleashed. Just click on the image of the case that you have.

This game is really fun, but it is really short too so I am giving it a 6.5/10.

Hi again!

This is my review of an older game, but it is still fun. It is called Super Smash Bros Melee. I reviewed Super Smash Bros Brawl, so I decided to review the older one that is out for the Nintendo Game Cube.

This game doesn’t really have a story. It is just another fighting game. My favorite character in this game is Marth. He is in Brawl, but he is really bad in Brawl and really good in Melee. There is still a lot of characters but this time I am not going to name all of them. Here is a list of some of the characters: Marth, Kirby, Link, Zelda, Samus, Pikachu and Pichu.

There is still a lot of stages in this game. My favorite stage would either be Hyrule Temple or Venom. Hyrule Temple is a really big arena and is really fun when there is a lot of people playing. Venom is a very small stage but it is cool because it is an air plane and you fight on its wings. One of the hardest stages is Brinstar Depths. It is one of Samus’ arenas and is really annoying because if you fall you fall in lava. The most annoying stage in this game is Ness’ arena. It is this place where there is a house and a road. If you go on the road when a car is about to come by, the car hits you and you go flying and usually end up flying off the screen which kills you.

One-Player in this game isn’t very fun because it is really short. Adventure mode is the short one, but there are more kinds of One-Player scenarios. In one mode, you have to do a whole bunch of events. The last event is really hard because you have to fight Giga Bowser, Mewtwo and Gannondorf.

I think this game is really fun and if you have a Wii, it will work on it because you can play Game Cube games on the Wii. I am giving this game a 8/10.

Hi guys!

I am going to review the old Mystery Dungeon games because I have reviewed the newer ones. Blue Rescue Team is for the Nintendo DS and Red Rescue Team is for the Game boy Advance.

Again, in the beginning you mysteriously turn into a Pokemon and your character can’t remember a thing. You have to take a test to determine what Pokemon would best fit you. After that, you have to pick a partner. I don’t really like the test because sometimes you end up with really dumb or weak Pokemon. One time I ended up with a Pikachu. I don’t like Pikachu, so I turned off my DS. If you are not happy with the Pokemon you get, just turn off your DS and take the test again. It might take a while to get the Pokemon you want, but most of the time its worth it. In the newer Mystery Dungeon games, I spent about an hour just trying to get the Pokemon I wanted. In Blue Rescue Team, my friend did the test for me so I ended up with a really bad Pokemon, Charmander.

In these games, you can only rescue people but in the new Mystery Dungeon games you can arrest outlaws too. The rescue missions are really easy but the story missions can be a little hard.  I think that the first boss is Zapdos, but I really can’t remember. The last boss is Rayquaza. I am not even on the last mission because I am stuck on Articuno. Although Rayquaza is the last boss, he is not the last boss because after you beat him there are some bonus bosses that you can fight for fun like Lugia and Jirachi. I’m sure there is more bonus bosses but I can’t remember if there is.

I thought that these games were fun at first but like the newer Mystery Dungeon games they get boring after a while. I am giving these games a 6.5/10.

Hi!

This is my review of LittleBigPlanet, a game that is out for the Playstation3.

In LittleBigPlanet, you play as a Sack Boy. It is this little creature that looks like somebody sewed him together. You can customize your Sack Boy and give them clothes, hats and boots. Once you finish customizing your Sack Boy, you can save it so you won’t have to make another, even though making new ones is really fun. You have to find and unlock new items for your Sack Boy, so making one at the beginning of the game might be hard or it might not look that good because you won’t have that much items. Once you are far in the game you will have more items and more skins so you will be able to make really cool Sack Boys.

In the beginning of the game you play in this place that looks like a forest. It is pretty fun there but my favorite level was one of the African-style levels. They are really fun. Once you get farther in the game you unlock the Chinese-style place. it is kinda hard because there are these spikes that come flying out of ceiling and try to stab your character. The last few levels are really hard because you have to go through a lot of obstacles and there are a lot of electric traps that explode your character. When they get electrocuted they make a squealing sound. It is a very high-pitched noise that sounds like a shrieking animal. It also sounds like one of my friends when he makes his strange creature sounds. The last level is really hard because you have to fight The Collector. He is this animal creature that kidnaps a whole bunch of characters from the other levels. before the last level you have to go through The Collector’s Bunker. It is even harder than the last level because it is a lot longer and there is a lot of the electric traps.

I think this game is really fun, and if you have a Playstation3, you should definitely try it out. I am giving this game a 8/10.

Hi!

This is my first online game review. It is called Club Penguin. You can play it in your Internet browser, so you don’t have to download anything. In this online game, you can either play for free or you can buy a membership which costs about 5$ a month. Here is a link to the main site, Club Penguin. This online game is owned by Disney.

First, I would only recommend this game for young children because it is a more younger child online game and older kids might find it really boring and a bit creepy. You make an account on it and you can customize your penguin’s colour. Once you have done that you can start playing the actual game and all of its mini games. Completing the mini games or getting a good score on them will get you coins, but coins are very useless if you are not a member because only members can actually buy stuff except for about 2 things. The only clothes non members can get is special event clothes, but those barely happen unless you made your account around the holidays.

Some of the mini games might get very frustrating because they are very strange. The best game to make money off of would probably be Cart Surfer because the tricks are very easy and get a lot of points. This mini game is the best because it is one of the easiest games.

I used to play this game but I stopped because it got really boring after a while and wasn’t that fun anymore. I also thought that it was a bit too childish for me, so that was another reason why I stopped . I am giving this game 2 ratings because I was a member and a non member.

Non member rating: 3/10.

Member rating: 4/10.

Hi guys!

This is my review of Roller Coaster Tycoon 2, a game that is out for computers.

Roller Coaster Tycoon 2 comes after Roller Coaster Tycoon. It still has some of the same rides but I think there is some new ones. You get to make your own park, or you can select one of the Six Flags parks to improve. In The Six Flags parks, there is already some rides there but you can put more rides in. I usually make an eatery some where in a Six Flags park because there is some food stalls but the guests almost always complain that they are hungry and couldn’t find the food stalls.

My favorite ride in this game is the Glow-Worm. It is a really cool roller coaster that has a lot of loops in it. There are other kinds of roller coasters that are exactly the same as the Glow-Worm, but they just have different designs. My favorite food stall is the Seafood Stall because the people buy these green tentacles and it looks funny when they walk around with them.

The coolest Six Flags park in this game is Six Flags Magic Mountain because there is this roller coaster called Goliath there and it is a really big roller coaster. My favorite normal park would have to be Lucky Lake because you have unlimited money, but you have to build your entire park over a lake. I beat the Lucky Lake park and I still play on that park because it is really good. I built at least about 20 roller coasters, most of them being really cool and giant.

I think this game is really fun, and if you have played any of the other Roller Coaster Tycoon games you should buy this one. I give this game a 8.5/10.
