    GeekFuel March 2015 Review and Unboxing



    Geek Fuel is coming… well actually it’s here! (Game of Thrones reference, or so I am told) Let’s dive straight into our monthly review. Right after we tell you that if you subscribe below, you get cool extra items thrown into your already cheaply priced mystery box. So just use the link and save yourself a few bucks.

    March Geekfuel
    Price- $13.90
    Price of Items- $107
    Savings- $93.10

     WarMachine Steam Code
    EMSRP- $40
     Every month Geek Fuel puts a fantastic mystery game inside the boxes, but this month they really knocked it out of the park. This month’s game was WarMachine, a steam-punk turn-based multiplayer action game. Basically you have the Warjacks and the Warcasters. The Warjacks are giant mechanical warmachines fueled by magic and commanded by Warcasters (Basically steam-punk wizards). This game is forty dollars on Steam (and may I remind you Geek Fuel is only thirteen dollars) if that wasn’t enough Geek Fuel also added some stickers of the main characters in the game with the code voucher. This is such a cool item, that I unfortunately stopped halfway through writing this review to go and play this game. I’m sorry, I have failed you my fans.


     Dragon Glass
    EMSRP- $15
     Do you ever find yourself walking along the walls of your kingdom during the Night’s Watch? Suddenly a White Walker jumps out at you and tries to stab you in the throat, well lucky for you loyal Fuelers you can take out a Dragon Glass Arrow and shoot it right in-between the eyes. That’s right you guessed it, this item is a Dragon Glass arrow head. This arrow head is scarily realistic, it not plastic, it’s in fact actually made of rock which is really impressive. Crow tested, Castle Black approved.

     Gears of War Drink
    EMSRP- $5
     Geek Fuel seems to love getting us all hyped up on caffeine, so I will be playing through Gears of War with this limited edition imulsion energy drink with a simplistic design it would be worth washing out the can for you collectors out there.  I don’t know much about Gears of War, but I know a heck of a lot about bouncing off walls at 2 in the morning when I should be recording the IHeartRadio show, so yeah thanks GeekFuel.

     Game of Thrones Comic Book
    EMSRP- $12
    Up next we have our second Game of Thrones item which is an amazing comic book. You can even get one of five comics and it’s an official reproduction of George R.R. Martin’s classic. Obviously I don’t know much about Game of Thrones either or this paragraph would be a lot longer. I’m hoping the editor just glosses……..JUST GLOSS JEFF!

    Darryll Jones Poster
    EMSRP- $15
    Next up is a Darryl Jones Poster, which is possibly one of my personal favorite items inside the box this month. You see the item was nicely wrapped up and place in the box where it couldn't get damaged. So the amazing piece of art is hanging on the wall in the office, so everyone that enters knows we don't have a problem going kamikaze on them.
     
     Mystery Shirt
    EMSRP- $20
    Finally, Last but definitely not least the monthly mystery tee shirt, possibly my favorite exclusive Geek Fuel tee shirt yet. It features famous classic video games such as Mario, Mega Man, Sonic the Hedgehog, Halo, Legend of Zelda, and Final Fantasy all in the theme of Game of Thrones each game franchise has its own throne. This tee-shirt is a Geek Fuel exclusive so if you didn’t subscribe to Geek Fuel you won’t be able to get it anywhere else.

    Lego Ninjago: Shadow of Ronin PS Vita Review

    I'm not going to lie, the entire VitaBoys team have never been too fond of Lego titles on the PS Vita. Often times too many features are cut from the game series that you have come to know and love. Ultimately that just leaves the game feeling stale and dry on the system and leaves fans wondering why the PS Vita was left in the dark. This situation has occured many times regarding the PS Vita Lego titles. It feels as if the games are always a ploy to get money, without the product ever even being worth picking up. However I am certainly proud to say, that while this game does have its flaws, it is still a much improved Lego game on the PS Vita that is totally worth picking up. 

    Story 8/10- The story honestly doesn't score this high because of how good it is, but rather because it meets the criteria one would expect from a Lego title on the PS Vita system. The story of Lego Ninjago: Shadow of Ronin is an untold story that occurs between seasons 4 and 5 of the TV series. In fact the game basically connects the two seasons of the show, which is a great added bonus for those who are fans of the show. The story, once again, is not a deep or thoughtful story. Do not expect to be overtly moved, or mentally challenged in any way here. The story offers a whole-hearted good time, full of laughs and giggles. This is why we give the story an 8/10, it delivers where one would expect a Lego game to deliver.

    Gameplay 8/10- The gameplay, just like the Story, is the typical gameplay anyone would expect when picking up the Lego title on the PS Vita. You play through linear levels where you collect orbs, traverse platforms, solve unique puzzles, and destroy the lego baddies to gain more of those precious orbs. It can be repetitive, but you can't count down for that, because it is what we have come to expect from Lego titles. Furthermore, it is the popular formula that has continued to sell Lego titles.

    Something about this Gameplay does certainly feel a bit more unique and fun than previous Lego titles on the system. I honestly could not pinpoint what exactly gives it that little something extra. Perhaps it isn't just the Gameplay alone, but rather a mixture of new elements added here and there, sprinkled in, that make the gameplay a more well rounded experience than previous titles.

    Replay 4/10- Here is where the game suffers a little, there is no inherent reason to ever replay this title. There is the obvious reason of always going back to platinum the title, but beyond that once finished there is no real incentive to replay the title. Honestly, with the small price tag of the game you can't really hold that against the game. It still is worth picking up without the ability of replaying the title. For what little its worth, it is a fun replay, but there is no reason to ever go back.

    Graphics/Sound 8/10- The Artwork in Lego Ninjago: Shadow of Ronin is in my opinion the best I've seen in Lego title on the PS Vita. That doesn't mean its anything special or unseen before on the system, just that the colors blend well, they are bright and vibrant. Ultimately, it does make the game more enjoyable, and certianly aids in this title being one of the best Lego games placed on the system. 


    Lego Ninjago: Shadow of Ronin is a great title, and that is honestly the first time I have ever said that about a Lego game on the Vita. I still am displeased that the system doesn't ever get to see any Free-Roam aspects, and instead have a very linear level system. However, overlooking that, and understanding what we have to deal with. Lego Ninjago isn't a bad title, and is in fact worth picking up. I honestly have nothing more to say. The game was a great play. 

    Story- 8/10
    Gameplay- 8/10
    Replay- 4/10
    Graphics/Sound- 8/10
     Overall:
    8/10
