Wheeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!

Man, I’m eating games like they were covered in Pick-a-Peppa sauce!

After another session of Super Maxio Jumpy Jump I infiltrated the Aesir building and showed that crusty bitch who was boss.

Me. I was boss of she.

The lobby of the Aesir building was straight out of The Matrix including slo-mo shooting, bullet tracers, cops-a-plenty, and even some agents with ear pieces. Some of the rooms where you open the door to instant death at the hands of 3 agents behind a table were a bit much. There’s no way to win those wars without dying first and then trying several times to execute the perfect maneuver. I found myself enjoying the story more than the killing which became tedious from time to time; but the story and sound design were well worth it. The ending could have been better though. I felt like Max needed to break down a bit. It didn’t seem like he changed at all after everything he’d been through. He was still a cocky, smirking bad ass. Is there more of an ending if you beat the harder levels?

Well, I’m all out of games, Jeff. Any games you’d like to suggest/let me borrow?

For now, in the words of McBain:

Did you at least make off with the laptop from the conference room table? I think it’s an iBook.

I couldn’t fit it in my sack with the bat, lead pipe, 3 pistols, 3 shot guns, 3 machine guns, sniper rifle, grenades, molotov cocktails, and ammo. That’s why Max doesn’t smoke. He needs the extra room for one more clip.
