Finishing Bioshock

Getting Bioshock finished was a lot simpler than I had anticipated. All I needed was Electric Gel, which is used to kill Fontaine, along with all of my other plasmids and grenades. I used the Electro Bolt 3 and the Incinerate 3 a lot. Your grenade launcher will come in handy as well. I will end up playing it in Hard mode along with my daughter, to unlock the last two acheivements.
The fight with Fontaine should take approximately about 10 minutes. Its not a hard fight, except he moves around a lot and you have to really watch for his plasmids. Depending on how many little sisters you harvest or rescue, there is three different endings. There is a good ending, a medium ending, and a bad ending; harvesting the little sisters will result in a "bad" ending.

Red Xbox Elite

A few days ago my oldest daughter received the Red Xbox Elite Resident Evil Edition in the mail. We were all super excited to start playing Resident Evil 5 when we had come to find out....it didn't work. We all gawked at the screen when it read "Unreadable Disc." We took it out, cleaned it and tried it again, still nothing. We downloaded it to the hard drive; it would only get up to about 45% tops and then it would fail. Still it didn't work. We then cleared the cache and still nothing. What were we doing wrong?! We looked up the problem on the internet and apparently, its a very common problem. For about 20% of those people, they could fix their disc by doing one of the above steps. For about 60%, they could get the game to work with one of the above steps, BUT their discs would fail again and they couldn't play after so long; which happened to us. For the last 10% the discs wouldn't work at all. So we figured out that for the 70% who could either barely scrape by with a couple hours of game play or those who couldn't at all, to just call Capcom (they make the Resident Evil games) or the store in which you bought the console from and ask if they would trade out the disks. (Do not trade your xbox because they aren't the ones with the problem. The disk itself has a manufacturing problem.) We called Capcom and Hastings and they both said they would send us another copy of the game, seeing as this happens a lot.
Until we get the Resident Evil 5 game, we have been playing a game called Bioshock. My oldest daughter's boyfriend played it, so we kind of knew what to do. It is by far a fun game with a few parts that make you jump. I am having a lot of fun, especially when you can hack equipment to make it work with you instead of against you, like the little helicopter shooters and cameras. Also be warned, when playing this game you can get an achievment at the end if instead of harvesting the little sisters, you rescue them. Kill the Big Daddys' first before attempting this. Once the Big Daddy's are done its a lot easier to get your hands on the little sisters. I am wanting to eventually play games like Gears of War, Halo, and Call of Duty....but one step at a time I think.
