My pickup experience was absolutely smooth and perfect. The truck I rented though had a stRter/alternator/battery issue making it very difficult to start if it had been sitting. I thought I was going to have to call and get the truck picked up. When I returned the truck I was met by two associates, the gentleman doing the player work was very friendly and courteous. The other associate was rude, disrespectful, and condesending. I may look young or that I don't know what I'm doing with large trucks, but I manage a regional fleet of similar trucks. I can't imagine that this associate met standards of treating customer and I was extremely disappointed with the final interaction.
The staff were very friendly and helpful. The truck was warmed up and ready to go. Checking out and back in was fast and efficient. I left my phone in the truck accidentally and they held it and had it ready for me the next day.
It was all good. No truck problems. Happy to have a drop off so close to my destination.
Speedy return. Thank you
Staff was incredibly friendly and helpful!
great guys definitely on top of their game
When I picked it up the trailer it had a layer of snow in the bed. Prior to loading I attempted to sweep it out and discovered two broken up long fluorescent lighting tubes buried in the snow. Needless to say it was a messy process to clean and prepare for loading. Otherwise the experience was good, but this issue should not have occurred. Thanks.
Good experiance, easy drop off, personel were friendly and drop off was quick and painless. Thanks
Customer service was excellent. Jeff was especially knowledgeable and helpful during the stressful time of moving. I would definitely recommend this store!
Clay is 110% customer service! I appreciate how I'm treated and that he remembers me each time I have gone in to rent equipment lately. He is an asset to your company. Tom Schulke / Helena MT
absolutely nothing. I have rented trailers from these folks many times as well as used their storage facilities and the people are amazingly helpful, kind and go beyond 100 customer service! I am glad to know they are expanding their storage areas.
Easy transaction. Good customer service. Very cost effective to rent a pickup the few times a year I need one rather that owning my own pickup.
Do not change a thing. Service was excellent, and the personnel were efficient and helpful.
I was not happy with the phone call I received from the Billings office two days before my move. I had reserved a 24' truck because a 26' was not available about 2-3 weeks before. On Thursday afternoon, I received a call from a man in Billings stating since I was the last one to reserve a truck that they needed to cancel or do something different because they did not have a 24' truck for me to use. I said well canceling is not an option. To which this man replied, well you can wait until Sunday afternoon or drive yourself to Great Falls and pick up a truck and drive it back. I was flabbergasted that a paying customer would be expected to do this or that this man would even suggest this! Why wouldn't he send one of his employees up to Great Falls to get the truck?! Needless to say we got a 20' truck at the 17' truck price, which still wasn't helping the situation as we were moving a 5 bedroom home. I called Clay in Helena and he cut the milage in half after we returned the vehicle. The Helena store was great however, whoever is in Billings that called was awful and should not be allowed to call the public and make decisions.
Very quick and kind
Nothing, Great service.
This is my personal UHaul story...Last Friday night my husband and I were traveling to a business show in Helena Montana that we were in the following morning. It was 7:30 at night and raining cats and dogs when our trailer, loaded with all our equipment, had a wheel bearing go out on it. We managed to "limp" two miles into Garrison Montana. If you know Montana you know that there is NOTHING in Garrison Montana.( Well, maybe a C Store, but it was closed when we got there.) I called AAA and found (a surprise to me) that they do not cover anything you pull unless you have specific coverage for it. Strike One. So I called a Towing place in Helena (44 miles away) and yes, they would come get us...for $300 and we still had no way to get our equipment to the show. Strike Two. So I took a chance and called UHaul in Helena...HOME RUN! and I am SO glad I did. The store was closing at 8:00 pm and we were 44 miles away, but Patrich Friede was working that night, and he said he would stay till we could get there. Now Patrich is a young man, and it was a Friday night. I am SURE there were lots of other things he could have been doing that were a lot more fun then waiting for us to arrive. But he stayed and when we got there he served us with a smile and a "no problem" attitude that we REALLY appreciated. So many other stores would have just said "We close at 8:00", but Patrich did our contract, (even revised it so we could take the UHaul trailer back to Missoula with us) hooked us up and saved our weekend! My faith in our fellow man has been restored and I now believe in angels because you have one working for you in Helena at UHaul! Thanks so much for hiring such a responsible, young man! Leslie Acton
I was not greeted when I entered the door. Two employees were talking to one another for almost a minute before even acknowledging me.
Great service and helpful folks
I can always count on this location to have good equipment and helpful personnel...
Appreciate being able to drop off after house - Thanks!
Employee was surprised when I told him the wiring pigtail was mine. He told me that it should have been part of the trailer.
Very good service and we had a very satisfactory experience -- thank you very much! Pat Seiler
Nothing really, very helpful.

Fischer Crossing looks to add soccer fields and more retail
Information released Aug. 3 by the Coweta County Commission noted that a public hearing will be held Sept. 16 pertaining to a request by the Fischer Crossing Development Group to rezone nearly 35 acres near the northeast corner of Fischer Road and Ga. Highway 34. The request would locate an additional 225,500 square feet of commercial space for Kohl's and other retailers along with three community soccer fields immediately north of the previously approved Fischer Crossing retail development.
The request by developer Scott Seymour comes in two parts. The first portion involves the request to rezone 20.56 acres immediately to the north of the previously approved commercial development and along Fischer Road. The request would remove two previous conditions attached to the C-7 (Commercial Major Shopping District) zoned property.
Those include the stipulation that access to Wynn Pond Road be prohibited unless requested by the entire Featherston Fishing Club and that a 100-foot buffer along Wynn Pond Road with an additional 50-foot planted buffer be maintained, according to county Planning Director Robert Tolleson.
The 20.56-acre tract is proposed to be the site of 225,500 square feet of commercial space that includes a Kohl's Department Store serving as anchor along with six outparcels.
The second portion of the request involves a conditional use rezoning of the 14.07-acre tract immediately to the north of the 20-acre tract from Rural Conservation (RC) to C-7. Included in that portion of the request are three proposed soccer fields and a day care facility.
Also in Seymour's request is the closure of the current portion of Wynn Pond Road where it intersects on the south side of the 20.56-acre tract, a short distance from Fischer Road, and rerouting the road 840 feet along the north side of the tract, then west to intersect with Fischer Road.
The proposed project has received a Development of Regional Impact (DRI) approval with conditions from the Three Rivers Regional Commission along with approval with conditions from the Georgia Regional Transportation Authority (GRTA).
The Coweta County Planning & Zoning Department has recommended denial of the request.
A public hearing on the rezoning request will be held Sept. 16 in the commission chambers.
Meantime in other areas of the Fischer Crossing retail development, construction on the 136,000 square-foot Sam's Club store on the northwest corner of Fischer Road and Hwy. 34 is now well underway. Referring to the east Coweta business as its "Peachtree City" store, Walmart representatives said recently that the opening is expected in early 2011.
And on the easternmost portion of the northeast corner of the intersection, the 10-screen NCG Cinemas is also under construction. The theater is expected to open around Thanksgiving.
Regardless the outcome of the upcoming rezoning request that will be considered by Coweta County commissioners in September, there will eventually be several hundred thousand square feet of retail located at the Fischer Crossing development that is likely to span three of the four corners of the Fischer Road/Hwy. 34 intersection.
And with the development's extremely close proximity to Peachtree City and Tyrone and a substantial portion of the Fayette population, it is inevitable that significant sales tax revenue dollars coming from Fayette residents will be funneled to Coweta County.
I agree and being a person who is unemployeed living in a County (Coweta) with an umemployement rate of 10.2% which is above the National Average I love to see someone bringing in jobs and tax revenue to Coweta County!! Too bad for the few privilaged individuals how have jobs and frown on bettering the community by putting ball fields for my children and providing jobs!! Shame on you!!!
Are you guys serious..?
in this economy, I applaud the developer for bringing in more jobs and revenue to Coweta County. Wynn Pond road will only be relocated and will not impact the original destination of it.
I for one think its a great idea. We need more people to go out on a limb and propose something like this to get our economy out of the hole.
Great idea on those soccer fields as well.
I agree with Digital.Bandit. I think it is a great idea to mix retail and recreation. While I personally am not that interested in purchasing food by the case at Sam's Club, I might be tempted if my kids were playing sports next door. I think this concept should be looked at for the property at the intersection of Redwine and 74 rather than rushing to rezone it for Low Temp. For example, didn't some guy in PTC want to build an ice rink around here recently? Isn't the PTC swim club outgrowing its bubble dome? The county/city should think about partnering some visionary developers on this type of mixed land use. If this puts stress on the Wilshire shopping center, well that's capitalism for you Mayor Haddix. Think bold! Say NO! to Low Temp rezoning.
Boy, those Wynn Pond residents don't have a clue as to how their lives are going to change for the worse. My, my, my.
Coweta has more and more to offer every day. But you my friend are the number one reason to get out of Grayette County
I watched the rise and fall of Gwinnett County and Coweta appears to be following the same pattern.
where credit is due. No doubt, Coweta is following right in their footsteps, Gwinnett County, that is.

On My Easel...
... I've had this drawn out for some time. He looks like my little Bubbie. I kept the piece at the front of the pile, often picking it up, then putting it down. (I say front of the pile because it was a stack, then the stack fell over and now they are all in a row like a library drawer- yes I have work to do!) Feeling afraid to "ruin" it because I liked the drawing & planned to paint on white, using a built up of lots of thin layers, which is something a little new for me. This is the first layer.
Postcard size, acrylic on paper
I have been having fun doing these little ACEOs when I can get in the studio and paint. Doing a small pieces that I can get through in a short amount of time. Using vintage fabric & acrylics these girls came to life. I call them all "Love is Like a Pretty Blanket". I am debating on whether to sew on them as well and just might try it while I have all of my sewing machines out.

Hello everyone!
Apologies for the rather picture heavy post today - these jars looked so pretty and the light was so beautiful that I had to keep snapping!
So, I now have my shelves up in my craft room, and they are a bit of a revelation - they have sorted so many storage solutions, and I'm still filling them with fabric, sketchbooks and crafting bits and bobs. I've seen vintage apothecary jars on Pinterest filled with buttons, feathers and sparkly bits, and decided to do the same to go on my shelves, to store tiny treasures in. I'm using my Douwe Egberts coffee jars for this - the same ones I used for my Snow Globes. (These jars are fab - they also look gorgeous with flowers in.)
I spent yesterday morning catching up with some of the lovely comments that have been left on my posts since Christmas - thank you for so much for taking the time to leave a comment, I do love reading them. I have replied, and I've answered a couple of the questions that one or two of you had asked, so please do take a look to find my answers.
Have a lovely weekend!

New to Typophile? Accounts are free, and easy to set up.
I am trying to hunt down any visual reference anyone can share of a typeface named Duodecimo. It was at least available during the early to middle 1800s. A serif typeface used in book printing and was available in the United States.
If this exists in a digital font that would be interesting to see a sample or link of.
I appreciate any insight into this typeface anyone might have.
Thanks much,

Every magician knows that the secret to any magic trick-from pulling a rabbit out of a hat to making a coin disappear-is really quite simple: distraction. All the magician has to do is focus our attention on something that seems important but is really unrelated-the waving of a wand or a flurry of fingers. Meanwhile, the trick is taking place on the side, and we don't even notice it.
This kind of sleight of hand is entertaining, but unfortunately today's world is full of similar tricks with more serious consequences. Despite our best intentions to accomplish worthy goals, we get distracted or even deceived and expend our energy on less important pursuits.
So many things cry out for our attention. The world tells us that money and fame, power and prestige are what count in life, and so our careers and ambitions might distract us from family and friends. Society seems at times to reward the dishonest and immoral, and so we may be tempted to compromise our core values.
If screens and cell phones keep us from looking into the eyes of our loved ones, we have been distracted. If ball games, tee times, and workouts keep us from spending time with the people who matter most, we have been distracted. If shopping sprees and the latest fashions keep us from seeing into someone's heart, we have been distracted. Deceptions and misdirections come in many forms, but they all have one thing in common: they threaten to confuse our ideals and put at risk that which we hold most dear.
Don't be fooled by the tugs and pulls and flashy tricks of the world. We are less likely to be distracted if we are wise and attentive and put first things first. Some things simply stand the test of time and deserve our best energy and effort-and others don't. If we will judge our activities against the standard of our highest aspirations and noblest purposes, we will accomplish our most important goals, and we will recognize life's tricks for the distractions that they are.

My Favorite Non-Christmas Christmas Films
Most film columnists start writing their Christmas pieces around August, churning out their memories of It's a Wonderful Life (which is a story in itself – this generation has no idea that the film was considered an oddity and a flop until Jimmy Stewart mentioned it on The Tonight Show and, as it was in the public domain and available for cheap airings, it has since been considered a "classic") and other routine movies that just happen to tell a Christmas like story. Movies like Miracle on 34th Street and Christmas in Connecticut still hold up and there are others I'm sure that do as well, but few movies that are singularly about Christmas float my boat. I've seen them a million times and most are creaky. Here are my favorite Christmas movies, a list my successful and thoughtful brother calls Christmas Movies for People Who Aren't Enamored with Christmas Movies. [Read on here…]

Mahwah Pizza Master has dished out delectable edibles constructed from fresh ingredients for more than two decades, delighting diners with a menu of circular savories, hearty pasta dishes, and other casual cuisine in a family-friendly setting. Silence the unseemly echoes of an empty belly with starters such as jalapeño poppers ($6.99), buffalo chicken fingers ($8.10), or chicken wings (hot or mild, 10 for $7.75). Famished pizzavores can sate their desire for a delicious discus with one of Mahwah Pizza Master's specialty pies, such as buffalo chicken ($19.50) or chicken teriyaki ($19.50), or they can simply stick to a conventional 16" cheese ($13.50). The comprehensive menu features familiar and reliable favorites that greet taste buds with back slaps and secret handshakes, including a veal parmigiana hero ($8.95 for large), penne ala vodka sauce ($9), and veal marsala ($14.75).
Before the archivists of Art and Framing Gallery begin a project, they slip on pairs of cotton gloves. By sheathing their hands, they guard against fingerprints and finger-paints. Their dedication to museum-quality workmanship shines through each project, whether it's a same-day framing job or a standard three- to seven-day order.
In Art and Framing Gallery's showrooms, walls display more than 3,000 frame samples and acre upon acre of mats. Ready-made framed mirrors and artwork also share this space, which connects to in-house workshops. Here, craftsmen cut custom glass and piece together each project. They skillfully preserve artwork and portraits and excel with projects that require special care. They encase delicate antiques in UV-protective glass and display sports jerseys in cases that ward off wrinkling and grass stains.
At Westwood Gallery, owners Mike and Lore Fitzsimmons celebrate their love for beautiful artwork with museum-quality preservation and framing of paintings and pictures. Everyone on staff boasts a background in art, allowing them to match a painting's style and period with the perfect frame and also consider the decor back at the customer's house. They can create original oil paintings from photographs, restore weathered paintings and photos, and brighten up bathroom vanities and bedroom walls with custom-framed mirrors. As longtime residents of Westwood, the owners promote the local creative community by hosting gallery parties, setting up photography exhibits, and challenging passersby to define "art" in one sentence or less.
Founded in 1960, Storm King Art Center speckles 500 acres of landscaped hills, fields, and woodlands with postwar sculptures by international artists. The art center's permanent collection showcases more than 100 abstract and figurative pieces made out of steel, aluminum, and other elements that range in size from welded I-beam structures to artistically littered pet rocks. Curators precisely nestle each work in the undulating Hudson Valley highlands, placing Alexander Calder's Five Swords atop an emerald hill and Alice Aycock's Three-Fold Manifestation II under the tree line. An indoor complex shelters perishable works unable to withstand inclement weather alongside The View from Here: Storm King at Fifty, a temporary exhibition exploring the center's history through archival documents, artists' sketches, and framed photos of the founders holding up the Leaning Tower of Pisa.
Quality Custom Framing at wholesale prices. We've been supplying retail frame shops & galleries since 1981 and now offer custom framing direct! We offer wholesale & retail for your home or office. From a single piece to as many as the corporate world needs, we can do it all!
Colossal train engines once pulled hefty freight along the O&W Railway's main line. Today, where the rails lines formerly cut through glistening tree canopies, a 2-mile unpaved trail splices through six rural hamlets, just 90 miles from New York City. It's along this rails-to-trails path that Woodridge Segway Tours whisks its adventurers through beautiful mountain views, clean country air, and the sounds of fresh water trickling. With safety helmets securely atop their heads, tour takers steer the two-wheeled segway transporters with intuitive gestures: leaning forward to go ahead, leaning backward to reverse, and pulling on their ears to make the segways sing.

High School Students Hold 'Prom Draft' + Pay For Prom Dates — Is It OK? [POLL] [VIDEO]
Well, this is something you don't hear every prom season.
Well, this is something you don't hear every prom season.
Zac Brown Band frontman Zac Brown and his his wife Shelly are parents for the fifth time after the arrival of their first son, Alexander Frost Brown.
Taylor Swift's hit 'Picture to Burn' from her eponymous album is the perfect revenge song, and most females can probably relate to its emotionally-hyped lyrics. Although we can't really think of much a little girl would need revenge for (perhaps a stolen teddy bear?), this absolutely adorable and spunky tike named Kylee really shows off her fiery personality during her cover of 'Picture to Burn.'
Remember when you were in school and would pass notes in between periods or during class?
Anyone with little kids knows that getting them to sleep is about as easy as figuring out in your head how much to tip, splitting the atom and understanding the algorithm Facebook uses to determine which are the top stories in your feed.
This is sick. After we saw a man kick his son down a halfpipe at a skate park, this comes about.

Jessie James Decker and her football playing husband Eric Decker welcomed their first beautiful bundle of joy last month and couldn't wait to share the photos with their fans.
Should this woman be outraged? Or does this lady just need to respect the rules?
Ok -- let's face it: When you first tried coffee when you were younger, you PROBABLY didn't love it the first time. Same thing with beer maybe, too.
Think of the strangest baby name you have ever heard of? Celebrities tend to pick some strange ones for their kids but, this might be the worst I've ever heard.
Last week, I decided to ask my little cousins all under the age of 10 some questions that I couldn't figure out about the Easter Bunny. Nonetheless, they were experts (at least they thought) and gave me some hilarious answers.
This wonderful exchange may explain why little kids idolize athletes.

Microsoft Makes Office Mobile Editing Free As in Freemium
Required to stay relevant (98 comments)
I don't think this was so much of a desire to be innovative as it is to survive. With good-enough editors available on mobile devices, web services, and PCs, MS has to move down-market or risk entire new generations never using or needing their Office software.
As it is, my daughter in middle-school has had some Office required assignments which prompted angry parent responses. I spoke with several other tech-oriented parents with kids at the school and none of them have MS Office at home. They all use either LibreOffice, OpenOffice or Apple's iWorks.
Microsoft is battling obsolescence. This is a good attempt to reach a generation that doesn't know or care about them.

The dramatic developments of the past month and the resulting shifts in asset prices have left many industry leaders struggling to get a handle on the implications for their businesses. In part, that's because the events are consistently dramatic and market-moving - although not always in the expected direction.
Within days of each other in September, Lehman Brothers filed for bankruptcy protection and AIG received an $85 billion rescue from the US government - and this only shortly after the placement of mortgage agencies Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac into 'conservatorship'. The US Treasury then moved to obtain $700 billion to bail out the markets. US politicians dithered and then approved use of the funds.
In Europe, Benelux bancassurer Fortis and Germany's biggest mortgage lender, Eurohypo, both received state aid. Then the UK government moved to inject £50 billion ($86 billion) of capital into UK banks in exchange for equity - a move likely to be copied by other governments, as direct capital injections are a relatively cheap way to support lending, due to multiplier effects.
Meanwhile, central banks made co-ordinated rate cuts in October, led by the Reserve Bank of Australia's one percentage point cut to 6%, followed by half percentage points cut by the US Federal Reserve to 1.5%, the European Central Bank to 3.75% and the Bank of England to 4.5%, along with a 0.27 percentage point cut in China's benchmark one-year lending rate to 7.20%.
Any one of these events in isolation would typically represent a huge dislocation in the financial markets and a major headache for the book positions of dealers and their counterparties. In conjunction, the pressure was unprecedented.
At the same time, OTC financial derivatives have drawn fire, notably from the US' Securities and Exchange Commission and the New York Insurance Department, which have criticised credit default swaps and raised the issue of regulation.
Putting aside the practical difficulty of regulating a global market, the bilateral derivatives market is one of a few to have continued trading during the crisis. And credit derivatives - still relatively new instruments - have stood up to the test following the credit events at Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac and Lehman Brothers, along with the subsequent auctions of instruments linked to those names.
What appears to be required - apart from dealers cleaning up their act on clearing, processing and settlement - is improved understanding of the risks and rewards linked to the use of derivatives, as with any financial instrument. And that depends on embedded risk management, in terms of systems, staff and culture.
Christopher Jeffery.

'Anderson' Gets Season 2 Makeover; Stephen Colbert Announces Summer Concert Series
Anderson Cooper will be back on daytime for a second season, but not without a pretty big overhaul. Renamed Anderson Live, Cooper returns with a more social media-friendly live format and he won't have to carry it off alone.
What are the biggest changes to Anderson?
He'll be joined by daily co-hosts. And with the addition of new co-executive producer George Davilas (The Doctors), the new "live" format will make better use of Cooper's journalistic inclinations allowing him to update his audience with breaking news and updates as well as interact with fans via Twitter. That doesn't mean they're abandoning celebrity guests for serious news. They've already booked Richard Gere, Emma Watson, Modern Family's Julie Bowen and Ty Burrell, among others. The new revamped Anderson Live returns Monday, Sept. 10. [Anderson]
Good Morning America anchor Robin Roberts is taking a little break before actually taking medical leave for a bone marrow transplant in late-August or early-September. The newswoman felt ill while shooting Wednesday's show and said, "Well, a full disclosure here, I'm not feeling too well. In fact, I'm going to leave, and let you all do the rest of the program on your own. I'm going to take a little time off, just to get some va-cay. I'll see you in a couple of weeks." ABC has made it clear that she'll return to the show before taking official medical leave. Roberts suffers from blood and bone marrow disease. As Celebuzz previously reported, colleages Katie Couric, Kelly Ripa, Barbara Walters, among others have offered to step in for Roberts while she's away. [The Wrap]
HBO made a couple announcements during the TCA press tour in Beverly Hills on Wednesday. Firstly, critically acclaimed Girls and Enlightened are scheduled to kick off ten-episode second seasons in January of 2013. Co-President Richard Pepler and Programming President Michael Lombardo also announced a Larry David movie in the works, which is currently in the writing stage. [HBO]

I'd switch Leona into T3 and Sej into the 'honorable mentions'... not bad besides that.
I have seen strong Oriannas. Her high skillcap AND different approach required make good ones pretty rare. Her ult correctly played can be is like Janna's ult on SR - tilt the balance of a teamfight way in your favor.
It makes me cry that Karma is a higher tier than Orianna. I mean, team speed, slows, shields, cc, and aoe damage. They give all the same advantages except you trade shields for cc (karmas shield is much better )
i really believe shaco & talon should be in the top tier other than that i pretty much agree on all of them
AO Alt
I agree with most of that list, but with so many champs in Tiers 2 and 3, it might be beneficial to make sub categories (Tier 2-A and 2-B, for example). Either that, or classify them into Top/Bottom champs, just to help clarify things for newer players. That said, I disagree with Oriana's placement. Played well, she can own the bottom lane. Shyvana, too. She isn't bad, but she isn't consistently good enough to be in Tier 2. There are just too many much better alternatives.

Veterans can get business clothing, attend jobs fair at Detroit VA Healthcare
The Detroit VA Healthcare System will host an event with Metamora-based nonprofit Suits for Soldiers Inc. to distribute business attire to veterans at the John D. Dingell VA Medical Center in Detroit on Monday.

Olney said 1,000 suits for men and women will be available, and any veteran is eligible to receive one as long as they register – or have already registered – for VA health care and sign up to attend the March hiring fair.
Veterans must bring their resumes for review and feedback, along with their DD214 forms to prove they are veterans, Olney said.
The event runs from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. in Room B1290 at the center. For more information on Suits for Soldiers visit its website, www.suitsforsoldiers.org.

Not often do I find a game as entertaining as this one was. I had expected it to be a short and simple hollow platform shooter with outrageously unbalanced weapons, but I was completely wrong. It does start out very simple, but gets to be quite a challenge later through the game, and the small plot was actually pretty interesting.
I see a lot of reviews crying over the control scheme, but I didn't find it to be too distracting. Being able to shoot backwards still towards the cursor would be nice, but its not a big deal. One thing I would have liked to see would be the ability to assign weapons to number keys, because I'd often find myself trying to switch to a specific weapon quickly. Not a big deal either.
The game was quite a challenge to me (I can't even recall the number of times I died on the final boss), but it never stopped being fun. The weapon upgrades were awesome, and this is one of the few games where I was actually able to afford the best weapons at games end.
There is one small bug I found, though. Upon my second play through, when getting to the area with the spiders, there was no boss. I was simply stuck there with no boss or key. It's second play through though, so I suppose not that big of a deal.
In a nutshell, fantastic game! I loved every minute.
thats majorly addicting.
its extremely fun and challenging to think.
some parts are hard and the weapons are good.
soundtrack is awesome, perfect for the game.
there is a bad part, some of the areas the monsters spam, majorly.
but other than that awesome;y addicting game.
Whiners everywhere
Why is everybody whining about the controls? if you're a PC gamer the setup is the same that's been used for ages. I, myself, had zero problems with it, except that my pinky got cramped after playing for like 6 hours (although I didn't use my pinky). And I guess HecticMuffin didn't play past level 15 because W is used to go up ladders and you can jump off those, which is critical in several points. Mapping jump to W is a BAD idea.
Loved the secret weapon, it's great fun at the new beginning.
More general aspects. Well, music started getting on my nerves after a while, but turning it off solved that.
-All the guns were good when you first got them. But by the end it was pretty hard to get the last weapons because gems are really, really scarce, or at least they were in my first playthrough, I couldn't get the microgun.
-A map would make navigation easier, even if most of the time it's pretty straightforward if you keep your eyes peeled. I got lost more than once and it was pretty frustrating to kill the same ghosts over and over.
-Difficulty was fine, IMO. Some mobs were very tough, but they all exploded in the end. I had nearly run out of bullets when the final boss killed me, I made sure to restock plenty ammo.
-I really missed a lot of stuff, some of the breakable walls were incredibly difficult to spot, and then even harder to break. Dynamite was rare at the beginning but then I was swimming in money and hence explosives. The grenade launcher was a great replacement for dynamite but it came a little late for me. Bigger cracks on the breakable walls would have been nice, or maybe a weird sound like in zelda.
I thought this game was awesome, one of the few that grabbed me enough to play 6 hours without rest until I was done with it, and then start again to get even more stuff.
And as final thought I really hate water and lava.
