While I sit here playing Red Dead Redemption by Rockstar San Diego it reminds of a lot of action adventure games. The game resembles any other game I have played, but the animations during the hunting sense are something to be seen. My character is equipped with a carbine rifle that he uses to hunt a variety of animals. The hunting aspect of the game is so appealing; in fact, it I was so overcome by it that I lost focus of what my other objectives where. Red Dead Redemption, not only allows the player to shoot your prey, but the player can also skin and harvest prey, and it’s the harvesting that makes the hunting so rewarding this game. The player is rewarded trophies for their skilled hunting, the trophies are not that significant, but they added value to the act of hunting they signified what a great hunter could achieve. This alone is sufficient enough to differentiate Red Dead Redemption from that of Grand Theft Auto (GTA). The Grand Theft Auto games allow the player to interact in the open world in similar ways, but GTA lacks the structure Red Dead Redemption. Anyone who has played GTA understands at times the missions can get boring and repetitive, during this time players tend to create their own…
Once upon a time, there were three bears going on a hunt for their dinner for the night. These bears had previously made porridge for when they came back, and were letting it cool off in the meantime. They were just about to head back home with no luck, when the heard a blood curdling scream from a girl yelling “WOLF!”. This immediately alerted the bears to run over to the area and investigate. When they got there, they found the wolf napping, with a big bulge in his stomach and a red cape…
stuck it through the offering. "We shall give this offering to the beast, so we can stay safe from him!" Roger yelled. He threw the offering out only a few yards away from where they stood. "Ow!" The boys heard a loud scream. They walked over to it and they saw a figure, which made the littluns run towards the flaming forest. "What have you kids done to my son?! Was this something you kids did?!" the figure screamed very depressingly. Its face was glooming red and its eyes were…
1. Marie is back in the picture and is now Meursault’s girlfriend. We know that Meursault finds Marie very attractive but does he love her? We see this going on today, especially in college. Sometimes we see couples together that do not seem to have an emotional connection but that clearly have a physical attraction. a) Yesterday was Saturday, and Marie came over as we’d planned. I wanted her so bad when I saw her in that pretty red-and-white striped dress and leather sandals. You could make out…
I look in the mirror, and see myself wearing a jean jacket with pins instead of my camo uniform. And my eyes are red. My reflection takes out a key, which turns into a revolver, aimed at my forehead. I grasp my holster, but it's empty. But I didn't lose my pistol, I never do. It's on my bedside table, and I'm too weak and dehydrated to reach it. The reflection grins and pulls the…
Something hanging off of the tree intrigued the two boys to investigate. Roy's expression darkened. Hanging off of the tree was a noose swaying back and forth. Will stared in horror. "Do you think this ties in with the deaths?" Roy asked. Will didn't reply. He made little movement. A tear came out of his eye. Roy seemed a little nervous, so he walked over to his friend. "You alright?" He didn't reply. Will slowly pointed to the dead oak. Roy looked from him to the tree. When he realized that he…
It’s 1:30 a.m., awakened by the sound of glass breaking, she immediately dials 911. She rushes to get her .38 caliber revolver from the drawer of her nightstand to protect herself. She frantically searches inside the drawer, but she cannot find it. Gun control laws no longer allow her to own one; leaving her fate to the criminal. The 2nd Amendment to the United States Constitution adopted on December 15, 1791, protects the right of people to keep and bear arms (Brooks, Chad. "The Second…
There’s no need for introduction, I’m just good ol me. I’m your everyday “Caretaker” in other words I’m an assassin that works for those who need their town protected, my parents are dead and I have no relatives so I’m all alone in this world. I’m 17, Silver haired, and Blue eyed. The “Fellow villagers” say that because I’m emotionless that I am the reason my parents were taken away by the government for “Testing”. I recently received a letter from a man named Uuotcha, saying he needed help…
Rainsford quickly stood up and fumbled for his revolver. The object behind the mass of bushes fired a warning shot, and Rainsford, who was trembling with fear, was steadily holding his gun pointed at the bushes. After a few minutes of silence, Rainsford decided to head down to the cliffs. Night has already fallen over the island, covering every tree, bush and blade of grass with its thick, massive blanket. Rainsford sauntered silently down a muddy trail. It was extremely quiet, too quiet, in…
Sacco and Vanzetti: Ballistic Fingerprinting The 1920’s or the roaring twenties as it is commonly referred to, ushered in an era of gangsters, flapper dresses, the post war red scare, and one of the most politically charged trials of the decade (Newby, 2007). During this period in American history there were high tensions of racial, ethnic, and political intolerance. The backlash of said intolerance bore fear in the hearts of many; living in fear of being labeled a communist. The era saw an…
