Uncharted 2 (Among Theives)


Story Line:
In 1292, Marco Polo departed China with fourteen ships and over 600 passengers. When he arrived in Persia a year and a half late, only one ship remained and only eighteen passengers had survived. Marco Polo never revealed what happened to the lost fleet. Embarking on a quest to find the lost ship and treasure they carried, fortune-hunter Nathan Drake soon discovers that Marco Polo was hiding a much deeper secret- he had gone on a secret expedition to find the mythical kingdom of Shambala and to recover the legendary Cintamani Stone, the "wish-fulfilling jewel"
of Buddhist mythology. The discovery sets Drake on a new course, tracking Marco Polo's trail through a diverse range of exotic environments. The quest also pits him against a new, more formidable adversary, Zoran Lazarevic - a ruthless, rouge paramilitary leader with his own private army and a relentless ambition to recover the stone for himself.







An IGN expert said:
Uncharted 2: Among Thieves is without a doubt the best game released on PS3 so far. There might be games that are this close in terms of graphical achievements but Among Thieves cripples the competition in terms of graphics. There really isn't much more to be said other than, I really love this game. This proves Naughty Dog is very valuable to Sony being an exclusive developer and I think the next game they produce will be much better than this. I have complete faith in their next project. That's all for now, I recommend this game to everyone. I know you'll love it.

An MVP game reviewer said:
Uncharted 2 is an experience – and one that needs to be experienced not only by gamers, but by non-gamers as well. The game is closer to perfect than anything I’ve ever encountered in every single aspect of the game. Naughty Dog hit the ball out of the park with the first title, yet somehow managed to smash through the stadium lights and send the ball into orbit with this one. If you hear people proclaiming this game to literally be the greatest ever made, they’re not being hyperbolic. Unprecedented technological mastery, a terrific story and characters, an outstanding musical score, phenomenal gameplay, outstanding multiplayer – I’m running out of positively connotative adjectives. The game is that good.

Prince of Persia (Forgotten sands)

UBISOFT® ANNOUNCES PRINCE OF PERSIA: THE FORGOTTEN SANDS™
New Adventure in the Prince of Persia® Sands of Time Series Debuts May 2010

The Old Prince is back!!......

It ROCKS because
+ A new Prince of Persia game.
+ Back to the awesome "The Sands of Time" times.

It SUCKS because
- It is going to coincide with the movie. Maybe it'll be based on the movie or something else. It could be a victim of suckfest of licensed games.
- It will ABANDON the "illustrative art" style of 2008's Prince of Persia, the cool AI character Elika.

Its predicted that Kaileena will be back!
keep your fingers crossed, because if the Sands are back, maybe Kaileena will also make a return, who knows.

It is going to coincide with the movie. Maybe it'll be based on the movie or something else. It could be a victim of suckfest of licensed games.
But i think they should have continued PoP2008. This story wasn't finished, the story from SoT was finished. Side by side I am happy to see the old prince. I suggest they should separate both Prince of Persia and run them side by side.
The Sands of Time story still has more potential than the new story, so let's see how this will work out. Just please, someone tell me there will be a PC version.The Prince looks younger this time the story must be based before the events of Two Thrones.The Prince is also equipped with new contact lenses.
At any rate, I guess everybody figured so far that the game was centered around the movie, and I don't really think it will be quite like the game trilogy, but hopefully it will be better than POP 2008


Ubisoft did say players can expect the return of "fan-favorite elements" from the original series as well as new gameplay innovations.
"Our new title will be true to the Prince of Persia roots and should leverage the fantastic impact the movie is going to have on our franchise," said Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillemot.
Guillemot also added the game will be targeted at both hardcore and casual audiences.

Arm wrestling

This pic reminds me of one the things we live our lives for.In my opinion we live and work to prove our self better than other or gain our self a name.Some people show off with money,some with their talent in some thing and some with the status they own.All to bring their name in lights.
By taking part in arm wrestling competition we agree in our sub-consciousness that we are doing this to prove our self better and gain popularity among the people watching us.May be thats also a reason I am posting this blog because in this pic I am winning from the guy of which you can see the face.
The feeling aroused after winning or even losing is unmatchable it gives a reason to live.If you win you want to share and enjoy your victory and if you lose you want practice and struggle for a win.
I want you people to share your interests that how correct I am.Write your opinions in the comments portion.And mention your reasons for living if you disagree with mine.

Exams an adventure


Usually exams are taken as a thing which when arrives, we have to straighten us up and drop everything relating to fun and stick our eyes to a course book. The tension stretches to more than 15 days. In technical terms adventure means to have something exiting,new or unexpected event,danger,chance,to take a risk etc. The definition exactly gets on the term Exams.
Take the exams other way round and you will get it.The exams bring excitement, consider the examination room your eyes searching for clues and an exciting feeling getting you,the excitement of exams getting over,the excitement of knowing after the bell that how good have you done the paper.
Danger of result coming out and your get to know of it.Danger of getting beaten for not letting your side mate cheat.All the events occurring are an adventure.Have you ever noticed that you have learned more in this particular period of life than any other hour wasted in scrolling through books and attending lectures?
Its the best way to sharpen your reflexes as your ears are sensitive to even the dimmest whisper of your side mate and your eyes are on both your paper and at invigilator at a time.You never learn so much skills from doing any other work.By appearing in exams you have gained the skill of: confidence to face your parents, skill of cheating, skill of stealth, skill of knowledge and skill of charisma (arguing with your teacher to prove your self right).
Another sign which proves that exams are an adventure is that you pack your bags with so much enthusiasm like you are going for picnic or camping.The way of your preparations tells that you are getting ready for something new,unexpected.The paper is proof itself that exams are adventure.You are not known to it and did not even have a hint about whats going to appear in it.

Narrative Writing (blessing in disguise)


Jumping over from the log in their way & after regaining their pace Tom & Jack continued to ran after the leader of the gang. He was nicknamed by his fellas Slip Gun because of his extra ordinary avoiding the chase abilities. Surrounded by dense forest they were following the track leading to now here.
Jack was suddenly troubled by a thought which made him halt at the spot, Tom turned back to question his younger brother & was tripped by a rock which came in his way & was not noticed by him. Jack questioned "what if he is leading us to his hide out? there we will be out numbered by his gang". Tom replied that their priority should be that they should not let Slip Gun escape.
Reluctantly Jack proceeded to follow his brother who was more athlete type. This time they were just following the fading foot prints of the criminal. Tom noticed that the path was gradually becoming more rocky and rough & foot prints could no longer be seen! The boys were in the middle of dense woods & the only thing their family know about their positions was that they were out.
"Our only chance to catch that Slip Gun is that dad should come this way in search of us," Tom exclaimed with fear in his tone. After few minutes of running on the track the path came to a dead end & there were no traces of Slip Gun. This filled the boys with the feeling of horror as they realized they were being trapped. Group of men emerged from their backs pointing rifles at them & one of the broad shoulder man stepped forward ordering the boys to kneel down with hands at the back. "We meant no harm" Jack claimed "We will see about that," Slip Gun replied who was tan faced and heavily breathing.
The boys were taken to a hut which was just few steps back from the passage between the trees they just missed. As soon as they were taken there they heard whirring sound above them more like a helicopter and their eyes twinkled. Suddenly a group of people slammed through the door and took all the criminals present in the room by surprise then a recognizable figure steped into the room & stretch his arms with full length & the boys delightedly ran into their father.
Their father later explained how he was able to track the boys after seeing their bike parked outside the forest & then deciding to take the aerial view of the place & spotting the empty space between the trees. He rewarded his sons with thrice their pocket money as they had helped to catch not only Slip Gun but spotted his hideout & his other partners.
So running into the hideout proved to be a blessing in disguise for them.

Is writing this blog a good approach for my free time?
