Nerf Reveiws #2: The NERF RIVAL ZEUS

Time for reveiw #2!!!

 Today we are reveiwing the NERF Rival Zeus blaster. Now, I know this blaster is old but it is truly awesome!

 Let's go over the parts and asthetics of the bleasterrr

The BLASTER in its entirety
Well for starters there's a TACTICAL RAIL on top. It's not like other NERF rails but it still takes Nerf N STRIKE ELITE attachments
as well as the new RIVAL attachment parts like the red dot sight and stuff...

Also there's a flip-up sight at the tpo. Well, there's two that align to make one.

There's a sling mount on the back but there's no official bandolier or shoulder strap as of July 25 2017.

Finally, there's a mag well and mag release.
Operating the blaster is complex. It requires four "C" batteries to operate. Also, it requires a mag and RIVAL rounds, both of which are included with the blaster.

 Finally, up front there's the barrel 
(duh) and the grip, firing trigger, and the rev trigger.

 TO OPERATE THE BLEASTERRR...
-Insert the batteries into the blaster. The battery tray is located in the back of the blaster.

 -Load the magazine with the included rounds (yes they're reusable)and insert the magazine into the blaster. This can be a little tricky.

 -Pull the rev trigger for about a second and then pull the firing trigger, while holding that rev trigger. This will fire one round.
Continue to hold the rev trigger and repeatedly pull the firing trigger to fire some more.

 Easy, right?
Now for my opinion.

 I have one complaint about this blaster. The magazines are actually called magazines on the box. That should be a good thing but when the magazines on Elite guns and stuff are called "clips", it doesn't please me...

 However, the blaster is really awesome. The RIVAL performance is the top notch. The best you can get outta a nerf blaster. I had some trouble with the loading/unloading of the mag, but that's a small price to pay!

 THE VERDICT:
8
out of 
TEN

ALSO: I'm aware the new Nerf blasters are out, and I will attempt to review at least one of them!

The Nerf Longstrike: An Original Sniper + (Unowned) Mod Tutorial

Image
Some say the Nerf Longstrike is easily one of the worst Nerf blasters ever. These people are half right, and half wrong. The Longstrike's stock performance is not good, no joke. But with even the most basic of modifications, the Longstrike can be a powerful blaster. I do not own any of this video. All credit goes to nerfperformance for making this epic, yet simple tutorial video. But it surely demonstrates that the basic AR removal and spring replacement will make this a force to contend with in the battlefield. The Whiteout version of the Longstrike. Now, how practical can the Longstrike be in a Nerf war, even with modifications? Well, it depends on if you know how to use the blaster. Everyone knows that it's a sniper weapon, so it obviously makes sense that, as the sniper class, you need to find a safe spot to snipe. Note: this goes for all sniper weapon users. The blaster's ability to hold 3 mags allows you to store extra firepower without taking up space on ...

NERF STRYFE REVIEW

Hello, my dudes. It's time to review the Nerf Stryfe. So the thing is, this gun was unavailable for a time, until recently, when they came back in stock on amazon, and they also came out with a "MODULUS" repaint as well. They both can be found here... Regular Stryfe  (amazon prime recommended) Modulus Stryfe (also prime recommended) ANYWAY BACK TO THE REVIEW. As usual this is a super late review. The gun actually came out several years ago and thankfully they're still available and still in production (as of November 2017) The gun costs $19.99 MSRP, $29.99 MSRP if you are looking for the Modulus repaint. To start this, the Modulus repaint is kinda a rip-off. It's pretty much the same thing except it comes with two crappy attachments, so this may not be your cuppa tea. At least it might last longer than the regular stryfe on the store shelves. The Stryfe runs on four AA batteries. A good idea may be to use rechargeable  batteries since they're...

ARE MINECRAFT MINIGAMES BALANCED?

Well hello again! Two posts in one day! This is gonna be DOOOOPPPPEEEE!  Anyway, here's a burning Minecraft question. So, we all know, there's some of you who play Legacy Console edition. Basically, any of these editions of the game... - Wii U Edition - XBOX 360 Edition  - PS3/PS4 Edition - PS Vita Edition - Nintendo Switch Edition (for now) But these editions of the game offer something unique...  MINIGAMES! Yeah, on the computer and on the pocked edition etc you have your servers with crazy minigames, i'll do another post to see if those are balanced. (Hint: they ain't due to all the different controlls and such.)  OK OK BACK TO THE SUBJECT. The minigames are pretty much the same across the listed platforms. And here's some good things... We'll start with Battle. In fact this whole post is completely centered on this one minigame. The thing is this. All the items you could ever get in Battle are not too far apart in their a...
