I’m back!

December 18, 2007

CRR&O is back! With a review of the movie Beowulf.

Okay, let’s get this straight. Beowulf was a gore-fest. Blood and guts everywhere. However, it was a load of fun and a good time-waster. The final battle was good. I’m not going to spoil it for you, but it’s exciting.

I haven’t read the poem, so I can’t compare the two. It’s still good, and the animation is mind-blowing. So, in conclusion, Beowulf gets a B+.

Lucky Star is lame.

There. I basically just said the whole post in four words. I watched about two minutes of it, then just stopped because the voices were so annoying. It would be easier to watch if it was English and not Japanese. I admit chuckling at one point, and the theme song was kind of catchy. But other than that, it didn’t hold my attention. The anime “Lucky Star” gets a D+.

Review: Runescape

October 28, 2007

Runescape, Runescape, Runescape. A very popular MMORPG out there, many have criticized it, many love it. Here’s my review.

The Good

Over 20 non-members quests, and over 100 members-only quests. - Huge world to explore. - Lots of fun mini-games to play (members only). - Many skills to hone. - Solid songs. - Simple to play.

The Bad

Graphics need some work. - Too much stuff is members-only. - Tutorial takes too long. - Slow computers can lag a LOT.

So, Runescape is good if you want to waste some time, or just enjoy playing with your friends. Non-members can get bored fast, though. The members play is WAAAAYYY better.
