Digital Game Testing

The video game i was examining is call Super Mario brothers. This game is a nice and smoth adventure. I find it to be relaxing and fun. In my opinion the audience for this game will be kids and young adults. I like it a lot. It took me back to my childhood. I think the skills needed for this game are basic ones; concentraition and commun sense. One of the great things i learned about playing this game was to relax and enjoy. Even without thinking about it i found myself thinking and finding clues to get to the next level. The game was not difficult to understand, but it has little details that force u in a good way to be focus. It was a nice experience.

club fair

Last wednesday i went to the school club fair, and to my surprise it was very nice. I felt very welcome by the people working there. They were serving drinks and giving green coffee cups. The enviroment was good.
Most of the clubs are very interesting. There was a lot to choose from: Actors guild, break dancing, sign language etc. Two of these clubs i was very interested in, but iam very busy and my schudule is to tied right now. I spoke with the guy from the sign language group, and for a while i was very exited. I have been looking for something like that for a long time. I will love to learn sign language, but it is impossible for me at this moment. I hope to join one of the clubs in the future. I think it will be great.

The matrix

The matrix, a futuristic movie that envols the reality and the fiction of a knew world.

The first time i saw the matrix was a tragedy. I hated it deeply. I couldn't understand anything, and i thought it was stupid. When the teacher said we were going to watch it i wanted to die, but for my sorprise this time i saw it with a very different point of view. I was able to understand more things, and i found it to be more interested. I stared to recognize the symbols in the movie. For example, the names morpheus, neo,mouse,trinity etc. They are more than just names. They mean something alse. Another curious thing about the movie is that even is very futuristic some how goes back to the begining. In one of the scenes we can see neo, the main character as a new born baby; no hair, no eye brows etc. The atmospheer of the movie is mostly low, and dark.
This movie has a big reality. It shows the big fight between humans and machines. Machines trying to over take power, and humans believing in the impossible; the one that will save us.
