Assassin's Creed 3 (the game with the REALLY hot dude in it).

Have y’all seen this game yet? Dude is hot in it!!!

'sup sexy?

Okay, aside from the hot game guy, this game looks completely amazing. I am a huge history buff and this game takes place during the American Revolution.  It has tons of history in it, so if you are okay with your seeing tons of violence, blood, guts and gore, they might learn something!

But honestly ladies, this is a game for your husband/ boyfriend/ brother/ dad/ random dude in your life and gamer chick friends. The AC series is super popular, and most “gamers” worth there worth play this one. I like to watch it, it’s like watching a movie, sometimes on replete, but it’s still fun to watch.

I’m not going to lie, my toddler has also played AC2, granted, he just made the guy jump up and down, up and down. He still played it. This made it to where I could cook dinner and do some dishes; I’m calling it a win. Judge me! 

Once I get my hands on the game I plan on pulling my big leather chair up to the TV with some snack, some Red Bull and play all night, get down and cozy with the hot dude out to avenge his family’s death. I mean what else says “holidays” right?

  You guys? This looks like a kids game, but it's hard! Maybe smart kids can get it, but I actually had a hard time.

  The game starts out with you creating a character, which is The Toddlers favorite part because he likes to make all these goofy characters that apparently look “just like Mommy”.  Okay.  Once you make your guy (or gal) you have a short little tutorial in the museum that you are trying to “save”. The curator explains that when you help out the people on the islands you get artifacts to bring back to the museum and bam! The people will come. Makes sense right?

  From the museum you get to pick which island you go to. I picked the Greek island. It’s pretty cool, especially if you’re into mythology. There you meet up with Hermes (he’s the mailman for the God’s BTW) and since he lost his hat you have to help him deliver his letters.  In order to get to the God you need to deliver to you have to do all sorts of little tasks to get to their thrones. I will fully admit that I am stuck in this one; I can’t find one of Artemis’s arrows. I swear I have looked all over the damn island but I’m missing something. Boo hiss.

  My other favorite was the Super Power Island. In this one you are trying to recover comics that were stolen from the comic shop, you do some mazes and other little mini games to get the comics back to the shop. This level was pretty easy for The Toddler too.

  Guys, I think this is a great game. I’m def going to look into the other ones. I thought it would be a little more kid friendly and aimed more at the younger crowd due to the cartoony look of it. But some of it is hard! Or maybe I am just dumb haha.

  If you are interested in picking up Poptropica Adventures it is available for the Nintendo DS on both Amazon and Toys R Us. It would make a great stocking stuffer! 

Just Dance 4

I'm really late to the game (hehe get it, "the game") with all the fancy dancing games out there. I have played them a few times with my niece and nephews, and these kids are insanely good at them. Like, I feel like they should be on Americas Got Talent or something. With the holidays coming up and my niece being here for Thanksgiving I need to get my practice in, I mean, I am from the gamer generation, so I can't lose to a nine-year-old right?

So I have been practicing, I popped in the Just Dance 4 into the Wii and rocked out to some Nicki Minaj, some Elvis, and OMG the Time Warp from Rocky Horror! I can't wait to take this over to the in-laws after some major turkey chowing to work off all the goodies we have eaten!

Not only that, but Just Dance 4 has a  “Just Sweat” mode. This is something I am going to get a lot of use of. I am never able to get to the gym (I know what they say about excuses thank you very much) and this is super fun to do at home, I like that I am getting some dance moves in instead of just jogging in place or something.  I also like to compete against myself, so it’s fun to see how much better I do each round. The only problem is the dog who is constantly barking at me whilst I get my work out on.

I feel pretty confident in being able to achieve victory against the tiny humans in my family this Thanksgiving since it’s such a varied mix of music, and I love that it’s all-clean and family friendly. It’s so family friendly in fact,

I got my Mom to play it, that’s right, that’s my Mom, not only playing a video game, but dancing, and letting me take pictures of her dancing.

I seriously love this game, I can’t wait for the next one to come out, my whole family is having a blast with it, and I can challenge people to dance offs and look like a complete bad ass whilst dancing. BAM!

If your interested in your own copy of Just Dance 4 check it out on Amazon or Toys R Us.
