Video review: Rambo 4

"Heroes Never Die....They Just Reload."
Another super blockbuster movie has just came to town(I believe that's already months). Yeah, a movie with intense gunfighting and war by Sylvester Stallone.

"The Hero of All Time Is Coming Back to Kick Some Ass"
This is why Rambo 4 is so famous. Well, this story starts by John Rambo recruited by missionaries to protect them during a humanitarian aid effort on behalf of the persecuted Karen people of Burma.

What I see from this movie is some people without sanity, you know...If a country have rebels, or communist, the government should use laws against them, like my country(Malaysia, duh): ISA(Internal Security Act), but not use up a whole battalion of army to just kill them(I mean the villagers that were suspected to be rebels). You see? They kill their own country people without mercy, will you do that if you're one of the soldiers? Plus, the other one that lose their sanity is the missionaries, they are brave enough to go to a warzone without considering the fuckin' soldiers....and without considering that they will stuck in this civil war(Burmese Soldiers VS Karen Freedom Fighters, a.k.a rebels) that bullets and bombs will kill them anytime(without mercy too...even if they belong to the Red Cross Association.)

So, lets continue with the story. Then, the missionaries are taken prisoners by the Burmese soldiers because they(the missionaries) were there and aid them with meds and tell some story in the Bible. Now, John Rambo was given a new task: rescue the missionaries from the Burmese soldiers, and that is a almost "mission impossible".

Well, the show goes on with the intense gunfighting, nice. By the way, this movie contain one phrase that I love very much, "Live for nothing, or die for something", heh, sound cool. But I feel "Live for something, or die for nothing is better". Somehow, I feel a little dissapointed to myself because I always tought the Rambo series was full of explosions, instead of gunfighting, hmm, like a Micheal Bay movie haha. Nevertheless, it is still a mind blowing and fast paced intensed action movie. Two thumbs up!!!

My first game review, on Bully: Scholarship Edition

Hey, thanks for viewing. You're reading my very frst review on games.

======================================================
Thud! Thud! Bish! Thud!
Wow, for some gamers, bashing up some people in real life sounds cool, fanastic, almost like swallowing a cocaine and get high easily...but hey, do you know you'll go to jail for that?
Well, there is other way to satisfy your needs, yep...Bully: Scholarship Edition is what you look for.
Okay first you play as a character named Jimmy Hopkins, you are abandoned to Bullworth Academy by your mother and your stepfather hehehe, "maybe". However, you're stuck in this school with some insane teachers that encourage bullying, teachers that consume alcohol(hey, that's your english teacher!),and many many stupid stuffs in this school. Yeah, and by the way...prefects, you know who they are when I mentioned a word "prefect". They gonna bust you like a police, whenever you did something wrong.
In addition, Bullworth Academy is a school, school right? Hmm, a corrupted school. So there are going to be some group or "gangsters"(actually, it is clique). There are Preps, Bullies, Greasers, Nerds and Jocks. And I just mentioned this is a school, so there will be classes, but it is optional, you can decide to skip your classes or continue with your mission. But you know, attending classes give you benefits(you know, we want a better life right?) like unocking new outfits or other bonuses. For example, the Art class, when you complete a class, you'll unlock a bonus that give you extra health when you kiss a girl. Sound cool heh?
Well, in this game, the storyline is spiltted into several chapters. In chapter 2, the school gate is open, and you can travel in Bullworth Town, the town is quite big, so enjoy your time when exploring it. Alright, now I'll talk on missions...In completing missions, you'll earn respect for some groups(clique), and maybe decrease respect for some groups too. E.g. Nerds respect +5, Jocks respect -5. Yep, what is respect for? Respect, you can check in dictionary if you dont know what it means...lols. Well, when you have respect for some group, like the Preps, they'll treat you in a nice way, like helping you in fight...booyah! But...BUT, if you lose respect, you'll enjoy yourself beaten by those motherfuckers.
So, this game was made by Rockstar, so what would you think of Rockstar? Gran Theft Auto right? But stop the idea of playing a GTA-like game in Bully: Scholarship Edition. You're not hijacking cars, not weilding a gun, not killing anyone(just KO), no such explict violence. However, you'll face some mild language, mild violence in this game. It's T-rated(that is Teen) game, so those gamers with crazy parents that control everything of his/her things, this game is a better way to et rid of them insted of buying a GTA 4.
Lastly, if you do not have anyone to beat at, just buy a copy of Bully: Scholarship Edition, it is a nice game and it makes you addicted to it. Yeah I think I forgot one, Bully have a better graphic, better expressions of people faces, and etc etc. Because of this, you'll feel like playing in a reality, not like stupid and perhaps some meaty voices in the sixth generations game hah!

Producer: Rockstar Games
Rating : 8/10

================================================================
Well I guess I'll stop here, I'll further update this when I go on with my game. And I'll add some screenshot if I managed to.
Sorry for any impudence(and any broken english, I know I always mess up with past tense and etc etc). (lols)
