On the other hand, there are girls that think they are gamers just because they are holding a controller and taking a picture of themselves saying that they are gamers. To me, that's not a true gamer. A true gamer would also always talk about games in a conversation. Now, some friends might think about you as annoying when it comes to talking about games in the middle of a conversation. Also, I don't think that a person that doesn't care about the graphics is a gamer. A gamer would always look on the graphics and the storyline. Games that are pixelated and are blurry are just games that were made just to make money. Games with good graphics are the best to play of you enjoy. Not many would consider themselves a gamer, but at least you enjoy playing games and well, I think that's enough to consider yourself a "gamer." Hopefully you enjoyed reading this! If you want to comment any opinions on games, please feel free to ask questions or recommend a topic I can talk about. Happy Friday! :)

Are you a True Gamer?
Ever wondered if you were known as a true gamer? Well, I'm going to share some of my thoughts on what a true gamer really is and how the attitude is taken when playing games. In my thoughts, a true gamer plays mostly everyday. They will play when done doing homework, done eating, done showering, or done doing chores. That is a true gamer. A big thing about. True gamer is the attitude they take when playing a game. Whenever I play a game, I always get mad whenever I get killed or I lose. I don't like the feeling of being of the losing team. The attitude of a gamer is important because there are some that say they are gamers but don't play games at all. When l play Minecraft, I always get mad whenever a creeper blows me up or blows up my house that I made. Some of you might think that getting angry of you die is not a gamer, it's just anger problems, well that's what you think, but I could careless of what you think.

Which Games have Bad Graphics or a Bad Storyline?
Ever wondered what games you shouldn't get even though you think they might be a "good" game to you? Well, here are two games that you should NEVER get when ever you're going to plan to buy a new game. And if you have this game, I suggest you throw it away or sell it. Anyways, one game that has terrible graphics would be The Expandables 2 videogames was released on July 31, 2012. Now, I haven't played this game, nor I want to. But I did look at reviews and pictures, and well, it does look like a bad game with bad graphics. I mean, really? Looking at the pictures makes me think, nope, I ain't getting this game at all. Some of the bad graphics I can see that it is a bad game is the way the people are formed, their faces looked deformed, no offense. When it comes to the blood, it looks like red paint splattered everywhere. In other games, they show blood way better than in this game. But everyone think differently ina way. Also, what is also bad in this game is the way it looks. It sort of pixilated in a way, but who knows, that's probably the games fault.
Now, the game Superman for Nientendo 64 has both bad graphics and a bad storyline. When looking at a game called Superman, you think, oh well your playing as Superman and flying around saving people from danger, obviously. Think agian, in this type of game, you are playing as superman, but the graphics are horrible! It's all pixelated and blurry. No gamer wants a game with that type of game graphics. Another thing is the storyline. The storyline doesn't really involve a story in it, just makes you control Supermand and you just fly around a small city in circles and circles. Who would want to waste their time just flying around in circles getting pints just because you flew through a golden circle. Well, anyways, these are the games that were known as the games with bad graphics and bad storylines. Hopefully you will take my word and not buy this games, unless you enjoy it, then I don't recall you as a gamer.

Which games have good graphics or a good storyline?
Looking for a game with good graphics, or with a good storyline? Today, I'm going to talk a little bit about one game having good graphics and another game with a good storyline. Sometimes, when there's a new game being released, many get it all in one day once it's out. Instead of waiting to see the reviews about the game, they'd rather get it and waste money if they didn't really like the game. The new game Grand Theft Auto 5 was released on September 17, 2013 and I'm sure many gamers got it right when it was released. But thankfully, the game came out to be good at graphics than the previous Grand Theft Auto games. The reviews were better than the others and were more based on the graphics. So, if you are looking for a game with good graphics, most likely get Grand Theft Auto 5 since some people have already gotten it and it seems to be a good game. I will be purchasing Grand Theft Auto 5 and I'll most likely make a post about it if there are people that aren't able to purchase it. So a little something to think about after buying a game that is barely releasing is not to get it right away because you might not like it, and you just wasted money to but a game that you didn't like.
On the other hand, there are games with good graphics but contain a terrible storyline for the game. Some games have good storylines, but contain bad graphics. The Walking Dead game was known as one of the games containing a good storyline. Unlike the game The Last Of Us, The Walking Dead was actually better at making the storyline better. Even thought both games have the same idea of the zombie apocalypse, one game will have something the other doesn't have. As experience, I have played The Walking Dead, and I also agree that it does have a good storyline. It might not be like the actual T.V show, but at least it has the same idea of surviving zombies. I would recommend The Walking Dead because obviously it has a good storyline, it's a touching story at the end, and the game itself will allow to have it your way. Hopefully reading this made you want to try playing a game, and if you would like to share your opinion on another game that has either good graphics or a good storyline, please feel free to comment. Peace out!

Games I Recommend
Looking for a game to play? In the past posts, I've mentioned what games I play and that I would recommend. Well, I would recommend horror games because you can have more fun playing it when it gets intense. Even though you make a disgusting or scared face that might look funny, at least your having fun playing it. The reason why I like playing horror games is that it gets intense, it gets fun when playing with someone, and it feels good to feel your heart race. Most of you might not like horror games, but that's what I would recommend. If you don't like horror games, another type of game I recommend to play is funny games. For example, a funny game can be Happy Wheels. I'll describe the games as we go on, but I'm going to describe more horror games.
The first game is Outlast. Outlast is a horror game that is first-person. You're the person playing inside the game recording the things you see when exploring a place that is filled with walking and creepy monsters. In this game, there are jump scares, just letting you know. Because some people play games and don't notice that there are jump scares, so when a jump scare appears, it can be deadly for the person to experience it. However, it is fun when your a gamer that likes intense games. I would recommend the game Outcome because when I was playing it with my brother, it was known as the most scariest horror game ever played.
The second game I want to talk about is Slender: The Arrival. This is also known as another scary horror game but not as scary as Outcome. There was another type of Slenderman game before this one. But that game didn't have enough good graphics on the place and the actual Slenderman. But when the arrival came, it was better in graphics because the person you are playing breathes more heavily and you are able to run a bit faster than the old kind. Also, there are more places to explore than just trees, a truck, or huge pipes. In the arrival, there are more places and the trees look more realistic than how they were before.
The third game is a funny game that I think most gamers have played it before which is Happy Wheels. I like playing Happy Wheels because it's hilarious when things just happen for no reason. Also, when talking about a specific topic, it can happen in the game. For example, of you say "That would be funny if I killed my own son", that sentence could happen in the game all of a sudden. I said son because there are different characters you can choose from to play as but not all levels do they have that choice.
Hopefully you enjoyed reading the recommendations of horror games and one example of a funny game. If you have any comments or recommendations you want to point out, please feel free to leave one below. Thanks!

YouTubers
Since the majority if the entire world goes on YouTube to watch videos, movies, news, and just random, I mostly watch people play games. For example, I enjoy watching Pewdiepie, Tobuscus, and Cry play games. They are the ones that made me want to play The Crooked Man, Happy Wheels, Slenderman, and other games. They post videos of themselves playing videos using a webcam to see their expressions when they play a horror game or other types of games. I'm sure there are other people playing games, post it on YouTube, and want to be noticed just like some YouTubers. But, not everyone is going to like your videos just as much as the videos of the famous YouTubers.
Pewdiepie is known as one of the most famous YouTuber's in the entire YouTube since he is entertaining, awesome, and played horror games with a webcam. But sometimes, when one watches his videos, some can get offended because he cusses more than once when he is in the middle of playing a game. Why? Because since he's used to playing more horror games than other types of games, he cusses when he gets scared by a jump scare. But overall, in my opinion, he is a fantastic gamer. What I really like about him is that he calls ALL his subscribers his bro's. I'm sure that all his subscribers like the idea of being a bro when subscribing. I also like that he made a bro army and at the end of each video he makes, he will always end it with a "brofist" which is the best part, in my opinion. If you want to see him in a video, check out his channel and make sure you subscribe! :)
Tobuscus is also a gamer that plays horror games and comedy games. For example, now a days, he's playing Amnesia: Machine for Pigs and began playing Outlast. He is a person who doesn't cuss, therefore, that makes him to be more funnier. He had played Happy Wheels, Minecraft, and other games. Some things that I like about Tobuscus is that he's funny and can entertain, he makes up a song once in a while about a game like Assassin's Creed and he even includes videos about his dog, Gryphon in his personal channel. I recommend this YouTuber and subscribe to his personal channel and his gaming channel! :)
Cry is also a gamer on YouTube that players different kinds of games but mostly horror games. What the sad thing about him is that he will not show his true identity therefore he doesn't use webcam just like Pewdiepie and Tobuscus. However, he does record his voice which makes it better whole playing games. He can be compared to Pewdiepie because he also cusses. But don't let that stop you from watching his videos. I suggest that you go check his channel and subscribe! :)
Overall these are the YouTubers that are known as gamers and that I watch their videos like everyday. Hopefully you enjoyed reading this, and continue to as I publish more posts about gaming. Feel free to comment below and share your opinions or recommendations.

Life of a High School Student/Gamer
I'm in high school and sometimes it can ruin some people's life. But life in high school can be hard when being a gamer because you want to spend more time playing games than doing homework, projects, presentations, book reviews, etc. Sometimes I'd rather play games and then forget about school, but that leads you to bad grades. It's harder than you think it is, doing homework fast to get over it and play games can hurt your grade and you might not be able to graduate at that point. I'm one of this people that are nerds and make sure I have good grades. How do I do that? Being in high school, having homework, and playing games, well sadly, there's less time to play games. But look on the bright side, you got good grades and might graduate!
Since tests and quizzes are included as a class, it's better to spend time to study than playing more games. I've had friends that haven't spent too much time studying and they eventually get bad grades. Spending time to study and doing all the homework will be better. By the way, with some parents, if their teenager gets bad grades and would rather play games, well, some will eventually get grounded. That's why getting good grades, and playing for a short period of time will get you there. I'm sure you guys are probably thinking that I'm not a gamer if I do my schoolwork instead of gaming. But if you think that, go ahead, at least I'm not one of those girls that think they are gamers, but they really aren't. They just take pictures of themselves with a controller or of a console and say that they are gamers. Not sure about you guys, but this is my opinion, of you don't agree, well then, that's your opinion.

About Me and What I Like To Play
I'm Melissa and I'm 15 years old. Most people will be surprised that I'm a girl, and I'm into video games. There are rarely any girls who are known as gamers. Some girls think they're gamers but in reality, they aren't. My hobbies include reading, on social networking, playing volleyball, hanging out with friends, watching youtubers, and playing games. Since I'm in high school, I don't really have time to play games, but that's on a whole other topic. I have an older brother who is also a gamer. Whenever he sat down to play a game, I would sit and watch him play. So that's how I basically got interested in playing games. When I play games, I always get impatient when it comes to loading the level. But, in order to start the game, you have to wait for it to finish loading. I'm also one of those gamers that get irritated when I die in the middle of a level.
I love watching youtubers that play games, for example, my favorite youtuber is Pewdiepie, Tobuscus, Smosh, and Cry. If you haven't watched these people on YouTube, and you enjoy playing games, I would recommend for you too check their channels and videos out. While your at that, you should subscribe to them. :D
I play different kinds of games, but my favorite type is horror. Even though I get scared of jump scares, I still enjoy playing it. For example, Amnesia The Dark Descent, was scary when it came to the jump scares and some of the monsters shadows passing by. Also, Slender!! Such a good horror game when it comes to the music. When playing a game, I hate it when there's a puzzle you have to solve. I get annoyed about it. But some of you might think that it's the best thing of a game. For me, it's not. I also play Minecraft. Some people get annoyed by just hearing the word Minecraft. I really like playing it because it's a game where all your creativity comes out of your mind. You can build anything you want like a castle, or a battlefield. I basically like just about any type of game. If you want to recommend a game for me, please feel free to comment below. Happy Friday! :)

Games I've Played and that I recommend
Since some of this blog will be about some games I've played before and I would recommend, I've decided to talk about them. I watch youtubers play the games that I've played and well, they video tape their faces to see their expressions. Most of the games I have played are known as horror games. For example, Amnesia The Dark Descent or The Crooked Man. When I first played Amnesia, I thought it would be boring, but then it would get intense when the music played and hearing the monsters growling. After that, I got used to it and enjoyed playing it. What I liked about Amnesia The Dark Descent is that there is horror, it will make your heart race, it's intense, and it's even more fun if you play it in the dark. What I don't really like about Amnesia is that there are puzzles to solve and it gets hard on some levels. The other game I played was The Crooked Man. Now, this game, I really enjoyed and I would recommend it for those who haven't played it before. When I first played it, I thought it would be simple and easy to handle, but when the crooked man came out all of a sudden, like a jump scare, it was creepy looking. But it only come out twice in the games. Later on, the crooked man doesn't look that scary and creepy looking. I really found this game really interesting and fun to play, there was really nothing that I didn't like.
