A.I. Wars

Figthers of Midor!

BASICs

Thats another Online-Game. It's about the endless fight of the humanity on a planet called Midor against a overpowering enemy.
The Name A.I. comes from artificial intelligence because you fight against robots.
It's a kind of SciFi Game and I played it before Glory WArs. The structure is familiar to the structere of GW because the Firm (GameArt Studio GmbH) is the same.
You can fight with pistols and modern weapons and get extraterrestrial artefacts which pushes your skills up.

Story

It's not necessary to know the story for playing, the basics you learn while playing the game!

Once upon a time (honestly, in the year 2552) a team of scientists discovered the traveling with approximately the Speed of Light. Later, they "invent" the A.I., Robots, which "think".
But, and in such kind of Story there is always a "but", the Programm developed and recognized the humanity as a threat.
So the Robots decides to kill the humans. All of them.
The primitiv weapons hadn't a chance against the modern of the enemy and the hope of victory fades away.
It's a long way from Midor to the Earth and after they hadn't received any message from the Human's Home World they start to worry.
And than came the first attack from A.I.
Most of the infrastructure and the vital conveyors were destroyed and the humans flew to their underground base. They dicsovered a ise deposits and so they could live.
Now, we fight against A.I., hoping, that the robots will recognize their mistake and finish the battle against their Creators...

Playing

Okay, I really like this game. I have played it for more than a year and discover every day something new. It's about fight and talk to other characters and most importantly, about improve yourself.
First you register and make your character, honestly, you just have to choose your sex.
After that, when you first log in, you'll have some kind of tutorial, so you'll be able to learn all the basics.
Uhm, what I can tell more?
It't important for surviving on Midor that you improve your skills regulary.If you don't have the right skills, you'll be abused as a money Source or a Source for EP.
Thats not very nice.

Pro and Cons

A Pro is definitly the pictures. I love the weapons, and the artefacts and the armor. It's just great!
Another pro is the fact of the A.I. Battles. If you aren't in a Clan you can fight in a Battle too - just not against humans, because in a A.I. Battle you obviously fight against Robots.
A Con is again, like in all Browsergames, the paying. I just can't stand games were you can get advantages with real money!

So, that was it about A.I. Wars.
I'm Myn Echat on Midor, playing on the 3rd German world. My Clans Name is "Elite Söldner", that means something like elite mercenaries.
Hope see you soon!

Glory Wars

Once upon a time in a land called Enduria ...

BASICs

Okay. Thats a Onlinegame. The link is glory-wars.net, but I prefer you'll take this:
http://www.glory-wars.net/?ref=24381-2DEGW
It's a kind of Fantasy-Fighting Game and I found it while playing an other game (which I'll post later). You know, advertising is sometimes great ^^

Story

In the Game is a story, but you must not know it for playing. I learned it months after I first logged in!

So, Enduria was a great prosperous country but it was ill. And that illnes was called the human race.
They were verge to destroy the nature and the land itself. And so the gods sendsed a messenger to the people of Enduria. It was decided, that there should be a king and laws and everytime the humans broke the rules a disaster should appaer, every next time it'll be longer and worser.
But after a couple of centuries the humans forgot the rules and fight for the throne.
So the gods sends their punishment in form of monsters.
Years later the villages were rebuild and the clans had awoken, but the fear is still all around us...

Playing

I must admit, it wasn't that hard for me to understand the basics of Glory Wars because I know a similar game from the same firm. But for you, I'll post it here.
Okay, first you have to register, that is a thing you'll have to do in all Browsergames.
You make your charakter (be sure you choose the right sex, I first made it wrong and called a boy Lya ^^)
You'll be also able to choose you're Powers, actually, you can choose between three oppertunities.
You can be a Magican, a Archer or a Warrior. Each one has his Pro and Cons, has his own equiment and his own skills. Later you won't be able to change your Powers, so make your choice carefully.
The sex or your Look is changeable.
First time you log in you'll have some kind of tutorial, a girl named Tamara I guess will tell you a few basic things about Glory Wars and make some missions with you.
But I will explain it to you, too.
Okay, first you have to know, that the bar on the left side of the screen is a kind of a menu. While clicking of one of the icons there'll appear another menu with icons right next to it.
So you can navigate.
Also you should know, that the missions are very important and you can choose between a really easy (3 partners), a middle (2 partners) or a hard (one partner) one. The Partners are not real Player, they are NPCs. 
So what you have to know too? Maybe, that being in a Clan offers many advantages. So you earn more money when you work and you maybe will be the head of a village or something like that.
Considerable is the town. You can make missions in the teverne or offer a job as a mercenaries. You can improve your Skills, buy equipment, and, whats the most important (I'm joking) is : You can play. I mean gambling ;DDDD

Pro and Cons
  
I love this game really. I often play it in my free time, but sadly there wasn't much left with all the homework. I mean, it's about Fantasy, it's about fighting and it's in the internet. 
So it's another perfect game for me :D
A Pro is of course the Style. I don't know how long it takes to draw that much pictures in such a good quality and I don't want to. It's just great and thank to the little icons you can learn really fast how to navigate and to play. 
A Con is, like in all Browsergame, the paying. I HATE games where you can pay with real money and than you have advantages like more working time or more MP/AP.

Okay, I think that was it for Glory Wars.
My Name is Lain, I'm playing on the German world Nr. 2 and I'm in the clan "Schwarze Wölfe", that means something like "black wolves". I hope, I can see you soon!

Questions please as a comment, thx

This is a Wii-Game. It's a RPG and in the Style of Anime. There is a first part (Tales of Symphonia), but you don't have to know it for playing the second part (honestly, I still don't know it^^).

You fight against Lloyd, loose and choose, that you'll travel together with Marta to collect the centurios cores and awake Ratatosk.

Playing

The basics of ToS are not really difficult above all because they are explained in the game.
Much is like in other Wii-RPGs. You run and walk with the Control-Stick, you fight with "a". "z" is block and "b" is back. The other things like yells, the equipment or the monsters are really easy to understand.
I like it very much, coudn't stop at all ;DDDD

Pro and Cons

So, the Cons first.
The only thing, I really hate playing ToS were the cutscenes (not sure that is the right word, I mean the sequences, where you see a kind of film). It was terrible!
You must understand, I have nothing against Animes or such stuff.
But this films are so ... long and when I played the game a second time, I was just tired of watching this goddamn scenes!
And, what's funny too, when you wern't able to save after such a thing and than your characters die.
One film I watch atleast 8 times before I restart the whole game from the beginning. Than it works -.-
Another Con was the amount of fights. Sometimes I just wanted to scream out and to throw remote trough the room. I mean, yes, it's a fight-game. But 500 fights? Is that really necessary?
And ToS is really long, I needed 25 hours for finishing it.
But there are also Pros (of course:DDDD)
First : the story is awesome! Fantasy, Anime and Fighting = perfect game for me!
Another funny thing is the Chat. Than the game stops for a moment and you see pictures of your characters. Now you can hear a nice little talk. My favourite are the Chats "Translation", "ban of speaking", "ban of speaking part 2" and part 3, and, my absolute favourite "Where am I?". A Chat which name I forgot is also funny, I'll post it later.
So, whats a Pro too?
Of Course the Characters. I love Richter and Emil, especially when he becomes a Knight of Ratatosk with his red eyes <3<3<3 (okay, I'm really crazy, I know^^)
The Story is pretty amazing, too and I love the style. I know, I haven't played so much Animegames, but I think that was a good one. Thanks to our library! (lol)


funny and awesome Quotes

So, the best of all is of course :
Courage is the magic that turns Dreams into Reality.
It was said by Richter when he speaks to Emil. Later it becomes the "Mantra" of the shy boy.
Funny are the Chats I've spoken before.
