Skylanders

Fencer6 here with a review of the Skylanders video game. Depending on who you ask, some might say that this game is kind of old, since it has been out for almost a year. In fact, they've already came out with a sequel, Skylanders Giants, but it's still a great game. The big thing that makes it unlike most any other game is that your character is a figurine that you put on a stand, to activate it in the game. Even though it's been out for a while, I still think it's a great game. What you do is you go on "quests" and you try to find these, things to fix the "core of light" this thing that protects skylands (now that I think about it, it's kind of hard to explain) and you goal is to fix it to fend off the darkness, blah,blah,blah. I think that it's action packed and lots of fun. Plus, if you get in a really bad jam on a level, there are always more skylanders to collect to help you on some of the harder levels.

Hope you think it's cool!

Virtual zoo!

Fencer6 here with an announcement of the opening of my very own online petting zoo! You can play with all sorts of virtual pets, and see lots of animal pictures! If I were you I'd want to check it out! You can go to it by clicking here, or by just hitting the "online zoo" button at the top of the screen. I will warn you though, it might be a little slow to load if you have a bad internet connection, but it's still a lot of fun!

Is the Wii U right for U?


Fencer6 here with a new post talking about the Wii U! This game system looks pretty cool with a screen built into the controller, and I think that spin will make it more fun when playing with other people, plus new features, like how if you lay the controller on the ground, then swing your arm, it registers your movement in the game. Even with these new features, I don't think I will buy it, because I already have a normal Wii, so I can’t play my old games on this new system, and I don't find enough quality in the new features to encourage me to buy it. Prices range quite a bit, because with this release there are 8g. to 32g. The lowest Gb. (8) per-orders for $300, and the max (32) costs $350, with Nintendo Land pre-downloaded.  
 It all looks pretty cool, but I still don't think I'll get it.
Hope you like it!

Fencer6 here with a new post talking about what Google does with your work.

Here's what Google says:
"When you upload or otherwise submit content to our Services, you give Google (and those we work with) a worldwide license to use, host, store, reproduce, modify, create derivative works (such as those resulting from translations, adaptations or other changes we make so that your content works better with our Services), communicate, publish, publicly perform, publicly display and distribute such content. The rights you grant in this license are for the limited purpose of operating, promoting, and improving our Services, and to develop new ones. This license continues even if you stop using our Services (for example, for a business listing you have added to Google Maps). Some Services may offer you ways to access and remove content that has been provided to that Service. Also, in some of our Services, there are terms or settings that narrow the scope of our use of the content submitted in those Services. Make sure you have the necessary rights to grant us this license for any content that you submit to our Services."

It sounds like they can use your stuff for whatever they like for their company, so be careful what you post, like don't post a novel or anything you don't want them to use.
Feel free to share what you think
