Bionicle Heroes On An Hdtv
Rewind back to Wednesday, I picked up Bionicle Heroes for the Xbox 360. Fun stuff. Black Friday rolls around, and I find myself outside of Staples at 5:45 AM. You may think I'm crazy, but by 7 AM I was back home with a brand new 32" LCD HDTV and only $500 poorer. Actually, my parents are, early Christmas present. So now I get to play Bionicle Heroes at 1080i on an HDTV, nothing bad could possibly come of this.
My thoughts on Heroes so far:
I'm about halfway through the game, and while there is an obvious pattern to the levels (Rahkshi, Zamor, Titan, Piraka) there's enough variety in the level design to keep things interesting. Being a big FPS player, the controls took some getting used to, I kept trying to strafe only to start turning, oops. It's lots of fun trying to upgrade your Toa and collect all of the awards. It's especially challenging for the ones that require you to use Nuparu and Hewkii, since they move slowly and have such a slow rate of fire; I much prefer using Jaller or Hahli. My favorite part by far is the gold canisters. If you haven't see/heard yet, the BZPower Reference Team and some other key staff members are mentioned in the credits. It was we who provided most of the masks and such that you earn for collecting them, the names, descriptions, and some images were all gathered and provided by our hard-working Reference Keepers. I couldn't be more proud.
So if you haven't gotten it already, what are you waiting for? Get out there and pick it up now, you owe it to yourself as a Bionicle fan.
