List of Online Games that I Played During Holidays

I have to admit that I have spent about 70% of my time online playing internet games. I didn't mean to waste my time playing these games, but they're freakin' addictive so I gave in, sort of. So, after gathering all my favorite online games, I compiled a list for it. I even took the liberty of putting their links on this page.

1. Club Penguin
My all-time favorite game and definitely the one that I spent the most time in during this holidays. I started playing this game last year and ever since Disney took over it, it's been getting better and better. I know some people consider Club Penguin childish because you can't curse (you'll get banned for a day or more) or kill each other (we prefer to throw snowballs). But nonetheless you'll get hooked making money by playing their mini-games such as Aqua Grabber, Pizzatron 3000, Jet Pack Adventure, Ice Fishing, Card Jitsu (currently having a yellow belt) etc. Well, the disadvantages of this game is you have to be a member to fully enjoy the whole buying clothes and puffles (some kind of weird-furry-cute-looking pets). But who cares? I get to kill my time playing with multicoloured penguins in a crazy penguin wonderland. (I have a cousin who uses this game to harass other penguins for fun).

2. Mytheria
This game is a replica of the famous Magic :The Gathering card game (or so I heard). It uses most of your brain as you build decks of cards to defeat challengers and complete missions. It's quite fun to play especially when you have good cards after beating challenges. I have a pure black and red deck respectively but still can't win the fourth challenge even though I've finished the rest, Aaarrrgghhh!!! I just wish that the missions were longer and harder.

3. Staggy the Boy Scout Slayer II
The title of the game is just as cool and nice as the game itself. It's by far the best hack and slash game I've played online. You play as Staggy, a knight who lives in the woods when he suddenly sees boy scouts (yup, you heard it right) invading his forest and he wants to drive them out by annihilating them. During the cut scene, you can hear him say, "Bloody Boy Scouts, in my forest? Again? I don't think so!" and starts wielding his sword. Each round, you're given 60 seconds to finish all the boy scouts and then you get to buy weapons such as Elven Swords (my fav), Orcish Blades, Axes, Lawn Mowers (needs batteries), Chainsaws (needs batteries too, duh) and Laser Swords (the coolest and the most expensive too), from the money that you get from killing scouts. When you play, make sure that you're speaker is on full blast because you really want to hear the poor helpless boy scouts armed with their wooden sticks, bows and arrows, swords and pogo sticks (weird huh?) scream in pain as you slash their intestines open. It's really amusing when you get the Uber-Sword power-up and you hack your way through them. Mindless killings, WOOOOHOOOOO!!!. Before you think I'm sadistic, let's move on to the next game.

4. Commando 2
This game really remind me of the Metal Slug games I used to play on the PS1 with my friends. You control a guy and get to customise his weapons from shotguns to handguns, bazookas to katanas and the really, really powerful Scorpion. I only managed to get through the first stage and got killed halfway throught the second. Nice shooting game, though.

5. Tactical Assasin 1 & 2, Sift Heads 2 and Clear Vision II
In these games, you play an assasin and are given missions from idiots to assasinate idiots and you get idiotic money from it. The best part of this game is you have to use you brain to guess who you're going to kill and then go for it. Did I mention that you can buy freakin' cool guns from the money you get? Awesome, man. There are also cheats (To be honest, I used all of them) for money, guns and missions. Nice. Yeah, and they're all stickmans, so you won't feel guilty killing them.


6. Boxhead
To tell you how awesome this game is would be difficult because you really need to play the game to really feel the coolness of shooting zombies and insanely powerful devils that shoots fireballs from their chests (yuck). There are exactly five Boxhead games around the internet, the first one was Boxhead: A Halloween Special (you have to escort civillians to safety while killing zombies overruning Boxville), Boxhead: The Rooms (you choose a room to play in and the objective is to kill as many zombies as you can while you upgrade your handguns into shotguns and grenades), Boxhead: More Rooms (more rooms, duh), Boxhead: 2Play (gives you the chance to join your friend on the same comp and continue blasting zombies and devils into the other world, also gives you a duel mode to battle with your friend in a room using all the bazookas, barrels, grenades and shotguns you have), Boxhead: The Zombie Wars (the latest from the Boxhead franchise, you have to defend your land from massive amounts of zombies, huge explosions are guaranteed.) One more thing, the bloodshed in this game doesn't dissapear like normal games do, cool, right? 




Lastly, I would like to thank my mom for allowing me to play these games during the holidays as payment for taking care of my younger sis, cooking, doing house chores and helping her do some stuff online. And for understanding that a boy like me should play these games to improve his grades when school reopens (JUST KIDDING! HAHAHAHAHAHA.....)
