Well I am finishing up the move from the murder office to the office I am at now.  I am not sad to miss the murder office   Moving is going well but it sure is time consuming!  Only thing left is to configure the printer…

OH BOY!

And the next game to have a walkthrough is Escape the Turquise Room.  As always, here is a link for gaming pleasure!

I am not always in the mood to play this types of games (like today) but figured I would do some interent searchage and found this information.  Here is the link to their site so you can get more up to date information.  Let me know if this game is good enough for me to play it.  These games frustrate me WAYYYY too much

Here’s what we know so far…

This is the final test for the job, the goal is to make a UV lamp, read the hidden staff only note and open the safe and escape the room with anti-acid boots.

To open the door:

1) Throw the HF a the door.

2)Take the gloves from the first aid box.

3)Paint your boots (two pairs) one from inside the closet and one from behind the safe and umbrella into the orange anti-acidic liquid from the cupboard.

4)Take orange coat with you from the closet.

5)Click on gloves, take large blue bottle of acid from the safe, splash it on the door.

6)Click on the umbrella and then click on the door.

HERE ARE MORE CLUES:

1. You have to make a UV light to read the code to get into the safe and retrieve the acid to break the door. Sounds easy right?

To do this, stop the fan by clicking on the ceiling above the safe, then click on the fan with the tape from the drawer. Click on the ceiling with the UV lamp device that you got from the mini-game and get the dirty glass tube. Take the red valve from the radiator with the purple wrench, clean the glass tube with the steam from the radiator. Look a the glass tube in detail and use the lighter in the middle to bend it (lighter is in the second drawer on the right when you see the cabinet). Take the batteries (one from the mouse using the apple and the other from the Dictaphone which you smashed. Read the secret staff message using the UV light. Here it is in a bit more detail.

2. Examine everything.

3. Get the UV base from the grey dome is in a game, get all the disks on the middle pole in order. Lift up and swap from pole to pole, but never bigger disks than the small ones.

4. Go to the closet and get a wrench, and break the Dictaphone to get the second battery.

5. Pick up the apple core, go under the bed and feed the mouse who will kick the battery to you.

6. Add batteries to the UV base. Read the UV and get the correct chemical from the cupboard. Bend the tube with heat and add the chemical you retrieved from the cupboard.

7. Use the UV light and read the book for the code to the safe, the picture by the safe gives clues.

8. Take the acid from the safe using gloves and smash it on the door.

9. Paint your boots (two pairs) and umbrella into the orange anti-acidic liquid from the cupboard.

10. Take orange coat with you from the closet.

11. Cick on gloves, take large blue bottle of acid from the safe, splash it on the door.

12. Click on the umbrella and then click on the door.

MUCH MORE TO COME… GOOD LUCK!

And lets throw a shooting game into the mix.  CLEAR VISION II!!!!

 http://www.addictinggames.com/clearvisionii.html

So the premise of this game is you are a sniper for hire.  You are hired to kill things.  You accept the mission and do your job.  The end.

Other versions of this game were a little harder than this one.  This game, I was able to figure out all the missions right away.  There was not a lot of guess work involved.  It was kinda cool to have animation at random points but not really needed in the stick person sniper game.

So anyways, you get jobs by going to your computer.  You accept the job, kill the person and then read about it in your newspaper.  Other versions give you tips about your next job in the newspaper.  This does not.  Kinda sad…there is no real reason to read the paper.

The game is entertaining but there is no replay value once done.  You run through the 5 missions or so and thats it…sad I know…

It is definitely worth a play through…I love sniper games…and stick people definitely add to it!

And the next game on the review block is…….FAT TURKEY!

http://www.ugoplayer.com/games/fatturkey.html

Do you remember the game of Oregon trail?  Do you remember hunting for food.  Picture this format except for one thing.  Well two things.  1. No bullets…sad I know.  2. you are a turkey and not a hunter.  There are hunters, but you are to avoid them, and not get hunted.

 Simple eh?

Well you walk around and eat up food until you become fat.  The weird thing is that the fatter you become, the fatter the hunters become?  They must be eating a lot of your cousins then….

Well the game-play is weak and gets repetitive.  I would not recommend this game unless you have to kill a few minutes with nothing better to do

And the next game on the review block is ROCK BAND!!!!

http://www.addictinggames.com/rockbandmoshpit.html

 The concept is simple, you are a rock star and you need to get to the exit.  First, you have your bouncer throw you over the crowds to get there.  Some things can assist in keeping you in the air and other things stop you in your path.  The end goal is the same, get to the end!

Objects

Beach Ball – If you hit this, you get sent up in the air higher

Tower – If you hit this, you lose…sad I know

Crowds of people – They will carry you towards the exit.  Try to stay away from the crowds of people as you will end up hitting a tower

Power move – You play a note on your guitar (magic guitar?  I know of no guitar that can cause you to elevate several feet in the air) Try to keep yourself elevated over the crowd using the power moves

Speaker – If you pass one, you get an extra power move.

Stage 1 – If thrown right, and well placed power moves, you should never hit the ground.

Stage 2 – Point yourself towards the ground and have the bouncer throw you hard.  Once you pass the speaker, do a power move.  Try to keep yourself above the ground.  I estimate that it takes 4 power moves to not hit the ground and with the speaker trick, you get 3.  This means that you will die (a lot) before you see the end of this level.  Be aware, there are no continues!

Stage 3 – Same concept as stage 2.  I estimate that it takes 8 power moves to keep yourself above ground.  This means you will die much more than on stage 2.  Sadly, there is no stage 4.

Replay value is highish if you want to beat the game.  Once beaten, run away from the game as far as you can.  Its ok to play for a few minutes to pass the time…

And we shall mark this up to a wtf is going on here instances.  I have a user that whenever she boots her computer up, she recieves this error message.

Check this setting: (check this box if not checked):

Turn on DEP for essential Windows Programs and services only

I haven’t tried this yet to see if it resolves the problem but I think it is a good start.  I will try this later today and let you know if it has resolved my issue.  Good luck

And here is an email chain between myself and my boss regarding my self evaluation…

Note: I am lazy so I suggest to read from the bottom up

Boss

Boss, 

I did not receive the document that was supposed to be attached in this email.  Can you send this to me?

Did I impress you yet?

 Koopa 

Koopa,

It’s that time of the year were you get to tell me how well you are doing.  Please complete the new “Self Evaluation Form” for 2007.  Try to complete this as soon as possible.  Remember, this is to remind me of all the times you work above and beyond the call of duty.  I know this is your first time and the attached file has the form and explains each section and gives an example of a completed form.  Let me know if you have questions.(Impress me) Boss

Well, now that I am back from vacation, it is only fitting to write up a review!  This game is one of the stupider games I have ever played but I figured I would give it a chance. 

http://www.addictinggames.com/parisohparis.html

I have a feeling that this game feeds into the people that hate Paris Hilton.  Personally, I love her sex tape…I mean…wonderful acting….wait…no it was the sex tapes.  We all know she cannot act!  She surely can suck dick though….

Wait…that is right…back to the game!  Well this game involves throwing food at a picture of Paris and her dog trys to block the food from making it into the lips of Paris Hilton.  Once you start getting click happy (which makes the game way too easy) the dog is no match to your barrage of food.  Paris becomes fat and you win!

Yes…that is the whole game.  Once you win, you can give Paris some lipo to lose the weight and the makers of the game make her look all shriveled.  So anyways, the game is stupid and the replay value is 0 unless you really like making the hotel goddess fat!

As I was driving to work this morning, I heard an interesting commercial on the radio.  The first one had to do with gambling prevention.  For those who have gambling problems and turn to the radio for help (???) they may be motivated to listen….

Until the VERY next commercial….

Please play CT lottery for it helps the state pay for funding.  Over 6 billion dollars have been earned for the states revenue and over whatever has been won!  You know you want to play the lottery!!!

Wait….what?  Whoever planned those ad spots are very sick.  This poor person who wants to quit gambling (though I doubt listening to an ad spot of gambling will make people quit…but what do I know) got all jazzed up about it only to be disillusioned by the lotto ad right next to it.  Now the person is thinking about buying a lotto ticket as opposed to quitting gambling.

 Life is cruel!

And today concludes the trip to philly…
All in all it was a fun trip but my back was killing me! It still hurts now….
Oh well…tomorrow is back to the regular work week…
