Yes!

Today is hallowe'en, and my costume still fits, even better than it fit last year. I'm just going to go up the street to the whitch's house, though. I, and everyone within a 10-mile radius, go to that house every year. It is their favorite holiday, and people actually LINE UP to see them.

Crud.

Two days left until NaNoWriMo, and I am still not quite done with my preparations.

Sooo...

Today was going to be another yearbook staff meeting, but it got postponed to november 7.

I don't get it.

Why would anyone want to skip the story in games with great stories? I just do not get it.

Well,

I am going to get braces again. Today is the day the bands get put on, and then I am going to Joy Luck Place with Mom, and then we are going home to my school work.

Yaaaaaaaay!!!

Today, Mom, Dad, and I are running like a bat out of heck AWAY from pumkin festival. In other words, we're going on vacation. Now let me celebrate for a sec.

we're going on vacation! going on vacation! we're go-go-go-going on vacation!

Done. Anyway, so, we are leaving around 11:00 am, and then we are going on ADVENTURE. We will be renting a house, and it even has... dun dun dahh dun... a pool and hot tub! And I will hopefully be getting my own room. With my stuffed animal, of course. We will come home on Monday, and Mom is making me take my school work. IT'S A VACATION, MOM! YOU DO NOT BRING YOUR SCHOOL WORK! *ahem* anyway, I am hoping to have a great time.

Sweetness

I just beat the world ends with you. Now chris, I have a psyche set for you, not pin set, psyche set. When you find an upgrade to one of these psyches, and you have the money, TAKE IT. Always keep this on your mind, it is a really great group of moves and I beat the game with them.

When you have two maximum pins in your deck: Shockwave and cure drink.
When you have three max: Shockwave, cure drink, and force rounds.
When you have four max: Shockwave, cure drink, force rounds, and entanglement.
When you have five max: Shockwave, cure drink, force rounds, entanglement, spark core
I've haven't gotten up to six max yet, so no updates.
I know what the strongest deck is, but I only have access to two out of the six pins used.

VGGS episode 2

I know it is too early, and it has not been a week yet, but Mom made me write a review on lego star wars: the complete saga, because I talked about it's annoyances. Let the review begin.

P.S. I am trying a new style, so PLEASE comment on what you like and dislike about this style of review.

Lego Star Wars: The Complete Saga

Okay, let us start with the good:

you can play as a jedi, you can play as any of your favorite Star Wars characters, and it has some pretty clever puzzles.

oh, and tons of stuff to collect.

Good/bad (depending how much you like easy games)

veeery easy, no significant cost of death, and is his hands are big enough and his fingers are strong enough, Nico could do it. (then again, this is the 2 and a half year old who plays guitar hero and gets points.)

Bad:

At one point, I fell through a wall, glitchy frame rate, glitchy space levels, and the wookies (who are armed with crossbows with arrows in them) shoot lasers out of the CROSSBOWS.

Levels get repetitive, and Jar Jar Binks is in the game.

Cruel:

you play a level, and you find the red power brick of that level. "OH BOY!!" you say. you grab the power brick and complete the level. you look around, and you realize that you do not have the extra yet. You go to the extras shop, and you see that you can now buy it for 100,000 studs. finding it unlocks the privlage of being able to buy the brick to unlock it. that's just mean.

overall:

the bad faar outweighs the good, so the only real reason to buy it is if you want to play as a jedi in lego form.

stars: 3.5

Okay, second post and other news.

Well, first off, second post. NOW that that is taken care of, it is time for the one thing that no one cares about, because it did not exist until just now... I present to you... IAN'S VIDEO GAME GAME SHOW!! Thats right, once a week I will review one game from my collection, until I run out of ones to review. NOW, drum roll please... todays video game game show game is (this is nooot confusing)...
THE WORLD ENDS WITH YOU!

Time for review and description:

The world ends with you is a hip, trendy game that takes place in modern day Shibuya district of Tokyo, Japan, where each of the games locations have their own ranking for what brands are trendy. Wear the right pins (magical things in the shape of a circle that give you "psyche" magical abilities) from the right brand and you can get a significant attack boost... up to DOUBLE attack. However, the opposite is true for the least popular brands... for the worst brand, your attack can be HALVED.

Each brand has it's own specialties for their stuff. The pins that pavo real sells, for example, deal no damage, but inflict bad statuses on your opponents. Meanwhile, the stuff that jupiter of the monkey (called J of the M for short) are mostly melee attacks that I really, really like. And then Natural Puppy, another brand, specializes in ranged pins. My two favorites from Natural puppy, lovely beam, which shoots projectiles at a blank space, and pamper me tether, which creates chains that deal damage, are very useful. there are plenty of pins and variety, and you should always try to experiment with new pins, because there are a lot of pins that do not sound useful until you use them, and then you realize just how useful there are. Try to experiment, you never know what you may like.

If that sounds hard to do, you'll not like the next part. Highly skilled wewy players control BOTH characters, one on each screen. there are three partner characters, and one main characters. Neku, the main character, is a seperated 15 year old teenager who for a third of the game knows nothing about himself but his name. Shiki, the fist partner, is a hip and trendy young 15 year old girl. Joshua is an obnoxious snob, and neku's second partner. Beat, nekus's third and final partner, is the complete opposite of neku.

The music of the game is awesome, and the characters are very well thought through and developed. Best of all, the game actually has... dun da da dun... AN EXCELLENT PLOT, featuring character development and loads of twists.

              *****SPOILER ALERT******

Each member of the reaper's game, the game in which WEWY takes place, with the exeption of joshua, is actually dead, and they each have their own entry fee. Yes, joshua is alive, and yes, that gives him extremely cool powers. (but only in plot scenes >.<>

              ********SPOILERS END*****

The graphics are pretty impressive, and the character design and art styles are unique, too.

All in all, this game is great, but a fair warning for those of you strange, strange people who never read the stories: this game has A LOT of text, and no way to skip it.

What gives? Me, and my Video Game Game Show. Ratings, that is.

Audio: 10 Notes: there are only a few songs without audio, and all of the songs with audio can be in either japanese or english.

Plot: 10 Notes: you will really, really become attached to these characters.

Collectibles: 10 Notes: Between the pins and the regular items, treasure hunters and people seeking a perfect file will have a lot to chew on.

Battle system: 10 Notes: I have been playing this game for a while, and mostly leave the top screen to the auto.

Overall score: 40/40.

WOWY is an awesome game, and everyone who has the reactions should try it.

***END OF REVIEW***

What do you all think of everything? Feel free to comment if you want to.

first post.

Okay, first off. This is not a blog. I hate the term blog, so I'm going to use blag. Like, from xkcd and the Xkcd blag. I just do not like how "blog" sounds. I like blag. It is also kind of unique.

Now that that's taken care of, secondly. The reason this is called "a young writers's blog and my username is The young writer is because I've decided not to go with my usual. I wasn't going to go with 'flameian' or 'lavadefender' or even 'dra'ian', because I've used all of those before. I wanted something creative.

Thirdly, I have at least two, possibly more, friends on blogspot. If you want my other blog, please go here.

Fourth and final, why 'a young writer's blag'? Well, because that was what I wanted to use. It made me use something different. To be fair, I am in a program called NaNoWriMo, which is a program where you have to write a novel in the 30 days of november. Right now, I am in preparatoins for NaNo. Oh, and Dra'Ian is one of my main characters.

Oh, and I will be using my livejournal blag, too. this one maybe used more often, though.
