Take Your Pick From The Top 10 Video Games by Roberto Sedycias


In the world of electronic media games, video games have been a great hit among the kids and the adults. In this plethora of countless games few stand out and are widely popular. What makes a game more popular than the others? There may be many reasons but the chief one being `What is the goal of the game?` the goal of the game along with other factors makes or breaks a game. The top 10 video games, all with a unique goal are discussed here. Take your pick on the basis of the activities that need to be performed.

1. Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time

The mission of `Link` is to Gather the Power of the Seven Sages and then shut Ganondorf in the Dark World Forever. This is due to the fact that Link was tricked by Ganondorf (King of Gerudo Thieves) when Link was a young boy. Ganondorf had used `Link` to access the `Sacred Realm`, and had then transformed the beautiful Hyrulean into a barren land. But Link was determined to resolve the problems that he had helped to create, so he takes the help of `Rauru` and travels around, gathering the powers of Seven Sages to accomplish his mission.

2. Tetris

The main object of the game is to manipulate the Tetrominoes (shapes formed by 4-square blocks each that fall down the playing area), by moving them either sideways or rotating them by up to 90 degree units. It is done to create a horizontal line of blocks without gaps and as soon as such a line is made, it disappears, leading to the fall of any block above the line that has got deleted.

As the game progresses, the Tetrominoes falls at a faster speed, and when all the Tetrominoes stack up and reach the top of the playing area and no more Tetrominoes are able to enter, the player is victorious! A truly interesting game that requires concentration and fast motor skills of the player!

3. Super Mario 64

In this popular game for the kids and the old, you can wander to discover the environment without time limits. These environments vary from each other and may be filled with evil creatures that will be raring to attack you or good creatures that help, inform and are ready to do any favor. You have to collect stars in each level which you gain once you finish the given task.

You may face challenges like defeating `a boss`, finding solutions to puzzles, collecting coins and racing against an opponent. You have to unlock the doors in the castle by defeating the Master Player in certain courses and get the keys to the doors. As you collect more stars, several courses of the castle will be accessible to you and you keep getting promoted to the next level.

4. Legend of Zelda: A Link to the past

Here, `Link` tries to find the villain called Ganondorf from the `Dark Tower` and seal Him in the Dark World. `Agahnim` controls the beautiful Hyrule and uses his evil powers to save Ganondorf from the Dark World. Once he succeeds in spite of all odds, the game gets over.

5. Super Metroid

This action game takes place on the planet, `Zebes`, a large world where each area is connected with the other through doors and elevators. You can control `Samus Aran` as she looks for a `Metroid` on the planet which was stolen by `Ridley` (leader of Space's evil Pirates).

You need to gather power-ups that will increase Samus's weapon-collection and also provide her with special abilities like the Space Jump that will make her travel far distances.

6. Super Mario Bros

The player needs to save `Princess Toadstool`. You can get hurt if you touch any enemy. If you fall into a pit or if the time runs out, you will loose a life and start again. You may either start afresh or at an invisible `checkpoint`. You may attack your enemies by simply jumping over them. You can kick the shells on enemies who will die. These kicked shells may bounce back off obstructions and hit you, resulting in you loosing a life. You can also kill your enemies by breaking brick boxes and throwing off the enemies standing on it. A truly fast paced game for the kids and the grownups!

7. Golden Eye 007

A game for James Bond fans. This game has several missions that were extended to make you participate in sequences which Bond did not act and even those in which Bond played a very minor role. The levels of the game are realistic in feel and in many places, there are irrelevant rooms and there are many routes. Files are there to check your progress; difficulty levels require you to complete complex objectives. After completing a mission, you can either continue or choose to play the previous level once again.

8. Final Fantasy VII

A virtual world game, this game comprises three modes: `an over world map`, `a battle screen` and `field maps`. The over world map features a lower version of the fictional world which you can navigate to go to various locations. The world map can be travelled by foot, on `chocobos`, `submarine` or `airship`. On field maps, several characters are sent across which either represent towns or forests. The battle screen is an area, like grassland or a building's interior, where you can give you commands against your enemies. This game has characters made up of polygons instead of 2D sprites.

9. Resident Evil 4

Being a combat game this game puts you in the shoes of Leon Kennedy, a United States government agent sent to find the daughter of the President, Ashley Graham. It focuses on horror, action and shootouts. It is a different level from the preceding games and it focuses on travelling and conserving weapons. You can zoom in to have an over-the-shoulder view while aiming. A laser sight adds an edge to the aim. You can aim in different directions at any time.

10. Doom

The game has the objective to simply locate the exit room which leads to next course which is marked with a sign and fight all odds on the way. Among these odds, there are toxic pits, monsters, reeling ceilings, radioactive slime and locked doors whose key card device is to be found. The levels are full of secret areas which hold power-ups to reward players. The surprise element makes the game very exciting and pulsating.

Thus take your pick from any of the 10 top video games and have an exciting gaming experience!

How to Maintain Your Income Stream If You Are Laid Off?


i



The world has entered into a recession, many corporations and companies had announced their job cutting news. If you are an employee for any of the companies that have plan to reduce their company's headcounts; then, your job will not be guaranteed. The question is how you are going to maintain your income stream just in case you are being laid off and unable to find a new job due to the job opportunities have been cutting down tremendously by most companies. It's time for you to think of setting up a second income source.

If you are thinking of getting a part-time job from other company, and go to work after your day job, then you probably will have a hard time find one in today's recession situation. Then, what other ways to source for income if you can't find a part-time job?

What if you create one for yourself? There are a few ways to make your own business without the need to investment a lot of money. By using the advantages of internet and online business features that allow you to work from home, here are the 2 common ways of earning money online:

1. Affiliate marketing

Affiliate marketing is a business model that enables you to make money online without the need to have your own product. There are many online merchants looking for marketing outsourcing. They make their products available for online freelance agents, called affiliates who will be given commission based on their sales. You can set up a website to sell a few selected affiliate products. Your role as an affiliate is to drive web traffic to your website or directly to merchant's website through a unique link that will identify you as the affiliate who makes the sale.

Affiliate marketing has been a good income source for many people either as the part-time job or a full-time income. You may consider to set up a second income source through affiliate marketing while you still with your day job. Invest some time and efforts to make it successful; it can become your main income source just in case you are being laid off.

2. Set up an online store

Unlike traditional business, you don't need to invest a lot of money to have your own business on internet. You can choose to become your own boss by opening an online store to sell physical or downloadable products. In addition, you don't need to own a product for an online business. There is a business called dropshipping where you can easily find the products you are interested in selling at your online store; buy it at wholesale price and sell it at retail price at your online store. Under the dropshipping business model, dropshippers will sell you their product at wholesale price for individual item and they will deliver the ordered items to your customers on your behalf.

You don't need to quit your day job to start an online business. In fact, you can do it in parallel and work it out for a success. The income from online store can replace your main income just in case you have lost your job due to being laid off.

Summary

Under the bad economy situation where companies are looking for potential cost cutting and headcounts reduction, no job is guaranteed. As a working individual, you need to start to think of how to maintain your income stream if you are hit by the recession wave. Internet can be the best source to set up an income online and be the back up income stream while you are still with your day job.

Interview with Michael Cheney from Adsense Videos

Interview
with Michael Cheney from AdSense Videos


Q. So what made
you get started with AdSense?


A. I
was looking for a way to monetize some of my websites. AdSense
is such an easy thing to get started with the eye for it would
be a great way to start earning more money without actually putting
into much more effort. I think as soon as you see the first earnings
coming into your account you get addicted to AdSense. I know is
what happened to me and since then I've just spent time working
out how to earn more and more each day.


Q. How much do
you make with AdSense
?


A. Some days I can earn
close to $1000 and others it's less than that. But it all comes
down to how much time and effort you devote to creating a quality
site that people like visiting. AdSense is not what my business
is based on by any means - but it is a great way to earn revenue
almost on autopilot.


Q. What is the
biggest mistake people making with AdSense?


A. Probably
the biggest mistake people make is thinking the AdSense earnings
are easy to achieve. It is very easy to get started but as I learned
it takes a lot of effort to increase your earnings. I got really
downhearted whenever I would log in to my account to see that
I had only made a few dollars. And that's when I decided to spend
months and months of my time learning everything I could about
AdSense.


I basically buried myself
away and devoured every single piece of AdSense information I
could find. I ran thousands of AdSense tests and started to see
a dramatic effect on my click through ratio and therefore on my
earnings.


This is why I'd decided
to record the videos - because I knew that it would help people
who were in my position to also increase their earnings. I've
read an absolute ton of AdSense e-book's but they take so long
to go through and always seem to keep information back.


With AdSense Videos I
knew that I had to tell the story exactly as it is and actually
show people and lead them by the hand through the exact techniques
that I use to generate large earnings from AdSense.


Q. In your videos
you show people how to increase their AdSense earnings - can you
give us a taster of this advice?


A. I
don't want to give away my biggest secrets as you can understand!
But some of the more basic things that you can do to increase
your revenues include using ads that blend in rather than stand
out from your content. Flat out the worst thing you can do with
an AdSense ad is make it look like the standard Google ad. What
you need to realise is that you will get more clicks if your ad
actually appears part of your site rather than something that's
just been dropped into the page.


Q. What would
you recommend that someone do right now to increase their AdSense
earnings?


A. I've
created a totally free AdSense minicourse that people can go through
to learn some of my techniques. It takes you through the four
cornerstone principles that I've used to build up my AdSense empire.
You can check it out, as well as all the AdSense Videos, here:

Picture God Of War with Wolverine and his bad ass claws and 1000x more gory.
