Tom Clancy Splinter
Tom Clancy’s Splinter Cell Blacklist is a third person shooter stealth-game. It has a unique game-play which allows players to lock on target and go in slow motion to kill the enemies. This feature gives the cinematic feel to the game-play while still being playable and interactive throughout the experience. There are three different playstyles: Ghost, panther and assault. Ghost playstyle is when the player completes a level without alerting any enemies or trigger any alarms. The main objective of that playstyle is to use the gadgets to avoid getting close to hostiles but take them out in a silent, non-lethal manner when it is needed. The Panther playstyle allows the player to play a more brutal but still silent approach. The main feature of

    War has no boundaries like age, family, and time of day. In the story,”The Sniper” by Liam O’Flaherty a sniper is stationed on a rooftop near O’Connell Bridge and is tasked to “take out” any hostiles. While staking out, the sniper got shot in the arm by a fellow sniper and is faced many challenges in order to survive. Despite the Sniper’s skill, the sniper is realizing how war shows no mercy. When O’Flaherty wrote,“He paused for a moment, considering whether he should risk a smoke. . . He decided to take the risk . . . Almost immediately, a bullet flattened itself against the parapet of the roof.” Because war waits for no one, the sniper had to consider the consequences of smoking before he smoked. This shows how brutal war is, someone can’t…

    clancy of the overflow

    • 729 Words
    • 2 Pages

    One such example of a text that can be identified as Australian due to its use of the stereotypical ideas of Australian identity is Clancy of the Overflow, a poem by AB Banjo Paterson. This text is written from the point of view of a city-dweller who once met the title character, a shearer and drover, and now envies the imagined pleasures of Clancy's lifestyle, which he compares favourably to life in "the dusty, dirty city" and "the round eternal of the cashbook and the journal". The title comes from the address of a letter the city-dweller sends, "The Overflow" being the name of the sheep station where Clancy was working when they met. The poem is based on a true story that was experienced by Banjo Paterson. He was working as a lawyer when someone asked him to send a letter to a man named Thomas Gerald Clancy, asking for a payment that was never received. Banjo sent the letter to "The Overflow" and soon received a reply that read "Clancy's gone to Queensland droving and we don't know where he are" The imagery that is used within the poem allows us to see the landscape that we now except to be Australian, the language used also allows us to appreciate the behaviour that we have come to adopt as our own 'Australian way'. For example "In my wild erratic fancy visions come to me of Clancy, Gone a-droving `down the Cooper' where the Western drovers go; As the stock are slowly stringing, Clancy rides behind them singing, For the drover's life has pleasures that the townsfolk never know." The real question is, without these so called 'Australian' images would we be able to recognise the text as an Australian one? The answer is no, Australian texts cannot afford to let their setting be ambiguous. Australia has few attributes that separate it from mediocrity and its setting is one of them.…

    In the novel Fallen Angels by Walter Dean Myers, Lieutenant Carroll, the first leader the soldiers have in the novel, said, “’My father used to call soldiers angel warriors, because usually they get boys to fight wars. Most of you aren’t old enough to vote yet’” (44). The extremity of the youth of the soldiers was unbelievable. Through all they went through, one would assume that only grown men who have experienced the realities of the world were capable of handling the hardships in the Vietnam War. Lieutenant Carroll, ironically, was seen as the wise, older leader of the squad but he was only twenty-three year old. Today, a twenty-three year old is usually fresh out of college and still immature and ignorant to the true meaning of life. The…

    Tom finder

    • 292 Words

    So far in the book "Tom Finder", I learned that there is a boy named Tom, but he doesn't remember anything. I think he has amnesia and forgot a lot of things like, his last name, address, parents, friends, school, etc. having to forget everything can be difficult, it's like losing your life that you built up for so many years. If I had lost my memory I would freak out a lot. But, Tom was different, he was worried but he also just went with the flow. Tom always thought he was invisible to others, and tried to keep it that way. For example, he said to himself, "Tom, Tom, Tom," as he walked so he wouldn't forget that his first name was Tom, he might be invisible even to himself. This quote tells that Tom was very invisible, maybe even to himself. He wanted to remember his name "Tom" because that was the only thing he remembered and didn't want to forget that either. I personally don't know anyone who lost their memory, but I think it would be miserable because, first their parents would be worrying a lot and that person would be wondering around looking for their home. Tom also met this man named Samuel Wolfsleg who said that Tom was a finder, and he would find Samuels lost son. At first, I thought he was crazy, but it turns out he isn't. Tom was freaked out about it at first, but then later he thought he was a finder, which gave him the name "Tom Finder". Tom would always wonder where he came from, who he was, if he was nice, rich or poor. Who wouldn't wonder about all of these things. losing everything can be hard.…

    Tom Brennan

    The novel The Story of Tom Brennan by J. C. Burke demonstrates the inevitable reality that individuals must sacrifice their comforts and the safety provided by the old world in order to satisfy unmet inner desires. Burke cleverly depicts this concept through the symbolic gesture of the Brennan’s “Closing the front door of their home for the last time.” Through the use of precise timing, “4.30 am on Friday the 23rd of January,” coupled with the first person narrative allows a reflective and melancholic tone to be established, reinforcing this concept of sacrifice of the status quo. The fact that Tom was forcibly removed from his old world (Mumbilli) hints that he has left behind his family and friends in order to seek a portal to a new world (Coghill). Thus the notion of sacrifice can challenge the experiences of moving into the world and change an individual’s attitude towards the physical and emotional change that comes with sacrifice.…
