I've finally gotten my prototype in the air. I'll post more info later, but right now I can say that this quadcopter is going to be a success in the local market. Not to mention it's currently one of only two racing quads that aren't made in china, so that's a bit of a plus.

So yeah, I was actually looking forward to Dimensions, believe it or not. The absurd price tag was a huge turnoff, but I bit the bullet and bought it anyway. I just finished the game. It wasn't the longest, but considering I played the entire thing straight through with no breaks, I think the length of the game was sufficient. So was it worth the price? Eeeeehhhhhh. I did enjoy it, a lot, while I was playing. But now that it's over I'm really feeling the hole it blew in my bank account. Looking back on it, it just doesn't seem like there was that much game there. Sure, there are 15 story levels, which is good. But one of the biggest draws of the LEGO series, the huge roster of characters, is completely absent. You only get 3 characters in the base game, and the rest much be purchased. This doesn't really bother me THAT much- after all, that is kind of the point of the game. But lack of characters me lack of unique abilities, abilities REQUIRED for 100%ing the game. I dunno, I may be missing something, but it does not seem like you can 100% the story with only the base set. THAT is complete BS right there, and it is the biggest source of regret for my purchase. I was always quick to defend the game, saying that it's still a complete game without buying any of the expansions, but it seems I was mistaken. Then there are the hub worlds, which I had to waste my limited data on downloading an update for the game (on launch day!) to access, only to be told that I still can't access them because they can only be entered by a character from that series. Two of these worlds weren't even represented in the story! Oh and on a similar note, though this isn't a huge deal but I feel it's worth mentioning. I felt like most of the franchises were only there for the sake of being there, and didn't really have any significant impact. For the most part it was "LEGO Batman, Doctor Who and Portal: The Game". They made a big deal about getting the original actors for a lot of the voices but very few characters had more than a couple lines of dialogue, and for that matter I'm pretty sure all the Ghostbusters's voice clips were taken straight from the movie. Again, not a HUGE deal, but I had to mention it. I want to like this game. It's enjoyable, and just taking it by itself I really do like what's there. But to have SUCH a huge upfront price, only to have SO MUCH content that requires EVEN MORE payment to unlock, really takes away from the experience. Do I regret buying the game? Maybe a little. I don't regret PLAYING it, that's for certain, the time was well spent. But the money, not so much. I would love to recomend the game if it was but a little bit cheaper, or had but a little bit more content in it- but as it stands, it doesn't, so I really can't say it's worth it. I wouldn't say to avoid the game completely, but do think really really hard and make absolutely sure you want it before making the investment. And that's my two cents, or rather, my 100 dollars.

Okay, let's get this one thing straight: This A minecraft story not THE minecraft story. Anyone who has ever played or seen a Telltale games game know that they only write spin-offs. Let's start off simple here. Why is there no "Steve"? Simple. How many people do you know that do not have a skin? Not many, right? Steve (and the lesser known Alex) Do not exist. They are templates for you to craft your own character around. Why is there no Enderdragon? Again, pretty simple. The dragon isn't even the "final boss" of Minecraft, so using it as a point of argument is useless. The next problem with your statement about the dragon is that you say that it needs to be defeated to "beat the game". I don't know for how long you've played Minecraft for, but anyone that was around since before 1.0 knows that you can't "beat" the game. Minecraft has no endgame, since it's a game about your actions and creations. A game like that cannot be beat. You could argue that getting all achievements could be considered as beating the game, but that's a different story. Next up, the animation style. Yes it's true, the fans did that first. However, no matter what you may think, Telltale did not "steal" anything. They probably saw the animations and though "That looks pretty good, we should do it like that." This is perfectly legal and acceptable, even without attributing the original creator, due to it being an idea. The only way that it could possibly be illegal is if they had patented the animation style, which they quiet obviously did not. The same as before goes for the whole Aether thing. It's simply an idea that they liked and wanted to use. Simple as that. Now, gameplay. This is a telltale game. Telltale only makes adventure games, therefore it is reasonable to expect the game to be a adventure game. This game in particular is a much better fit then Tales form the Borderlands, which is based on the Borderlands series and anyone who has played those games know how very shallow it's story is. With Minecraft, however you have the advantage of a mostly blank slate. Minecraft has no story, so therefore they are not bound to much. Anyway, enough of me being a keyboard warrior. Personally I'm not going to buy this game, at least not until the first episode comes out and it's solid adventure gold. The only problem that I have with this game is that it's stops the studio from working on The Walking Dead Season 3
