When a candle comes along, you must whip it!

     Hello all, right now I am gonna talk about a game that alot of people have had experiences with and have had traumatic syndromes thanks to it..I am of course talking about Castlevania. Lets start off with the first and most classic...

     The year is 1691, And the king of evil, Dracula, has arisen from his 100 year slumber to tear up the country side of Europe. A demon slayer by the name of Simon Belmont steps up to confront this demon king, wielding his family er loom the "Vampire Slayer", A whip that can change its form depending on the items one poses, blessed with holy power. Though he will have to go through hell first to make it far enough to even catch a glimpse of this king.
     This game must have been amazing when it came out on the Nes, the music rocked, the action was great and a solid story line. What could possibly be bad about it? Lets start off with..One..Major..Flaw...When Simon gets hit he falls back 2-3 pixels, so any single time your going for a jump, if you don't end up going through the enemy which rarely happens, you go backwards and eather land on the platform or go down and fall into the hole, which the latter happens more times than not.. It also happens if you are standing or walking, so if your in front of a pit and get touched by one of the damn enemy's, you fly back and fall RIIIGHT into the hole.
       My second beef with this game? Its FREAKING HARD!! I mean, the "glitch" (If you could call it) which I explained above does add to the hardness, but the game its self, if it didn't have that glitch, would still be hard as hell.. You end up concentrating so much on it that your eyes start to hurt and then you go to wipe them or rubb them to sooth them, and OPPS! Your in the pit again, another life gone oooooorrrrr Game Over, eather way it pisses me off to no end. Has anyone ever and I mean ever played this far enough to get to Death? If you have you know what I mean, just look at the hallway before you get to death, theirs flying Medusa heads, knights throwing axes and coming for you, and I mean it doesn't sound hard, but holy hell, its hard, there is little chance you will make it through there without getting hurt..wait let me put it this way. 5% chance of making it unscathed through that corridor of hell, 25 (at most)% of making it past it at all, and then 10% if your extremely lucky with death to make it past him, eather way these odds are unsettling, you have a better chance at getting a hernia, your arm falling off, your testicles exploding or you shitting your pants. Make it to draculas stage and then Dracula.. That is living hell, I mean what did you expect after Death? Death..Freaking..Answers to this guy, if the master of life and death does that, you know you are in for some serious shit, even more than when a DeLorian hits 88 miles an hour..(Shut up lol)...
       Dracula has more than 1 form so its not easy, but you get to whack his head off which is freaking amazing.. But all in all, its a good game, just really frustrating, but if you can accept that then play through it! It really is a good game other wise. So pick it up, if you don't believe me on what I said then enjoy getting slaughtered!

         Anyway until next rant or what ever, Ronin-Kin (This made me feel better lol)

2nd Post and later that day;

Well did my homework and it was alright, but now I am depressed, I keep begging my mother to give me some more of my depression pills..though she won't let me have anymore, she gave me some vitamin C or D I forget which..I took it..don't feel any better yet really.. I need something to do so that I can get my mind off of this..Maybe this is just a rant, maybe not who knows? I guess you heh. Someday I get upset over my friends and feel like im not really their friends, maybe its just my depression, maybe not..But I am sick of being depressed, I want this out of me I can't do this much more *sigh*. Some people think that they can talk to you after 6 months of not talking at all and its all fine right? Wrong I can see if there was a reason but meh, now by talking I mean having a conversation, aka me talking to them but them never talking back for the last 6 months, but meh... Another friend of mine seems distant..Shes always busy when I try to talk to her anymore... Maybe its just me I dunno..Guess I should'nt care right? I dunno..I want to live without other people some days, that way I wouldn't feel as bad..I guess...No idea I can't stand this, my teeth hurt too still from my operation of 2 or so weeks ago and the infection I got, my cheek was the size of a tenis ball..and that was coming from a doctor..lol... Some days I feel like I understand how rebdoomer (One of the columbine shooters) about not caring for your own life..Though I would never do such a stupid thing..Sick bastards..I don't know if I have enough credits to pass highschool...I could do this but this damn depresson..Some days I just wish I felt better...I would beg someone on my hands and knees to cure it if it was possible..I don't even feel like standing up..I have to literly wind my self up to live anymore...Hopefully it will pan out...or something...Oh my home room teacher says he *Has* to come and see us at our homes or else they will kick me out of school, which is sorta retarded but what ever...Oh I get a free shirt so atleast that..But its gonna suck..Hes entering my territory and will make me nervous..well any way it would.. I don't really know what to do..I want to live without depresson..Well...Signing off for now..

Well in this space I guess I will introduce my self, I am 17, and a Sr, This is my final year (I think if I have the credits..Not sure no one has been able to give me a straight answer as of yet to how many credits I need and how many I have), and I am sure that it will be my best! Easy classes and nice teachers, its already starting out good :). I love to play games, watch movies, watch television, draw (alot :3), and be with the love of my life <3.
