Final Fantasy

Hi! This time I'm gonna talk about a role videogame that came out 1 month ago. I finished it some days ago and it´s great. It´s Final Fantasy XIII the last FF for the moment, from the famous saga.

The world of Final Fantasy XIII is split into two very different parts. One part is a floating, mechanical city called Cocoon. Cocoon is home to a few million people. These people of Cocoon are frightened of the other part of the world which is outside of the city, a place called Pulse. Anyone who comes into contact with Pulse is believed to be part of a plot to invade Cocoon.

Lightning the main character will have to save both parts of the world from it´s destruction, at the same time Snow will try to find his girlfriend.

This videogame has a very interesting story, at the same time it includes a new battle system and very good graphics. These factors make it an special videogame.

It has been criticized by some magazines and critics because it means a great rupture with the tradition of Final Fantasy. But in my opinion its positive to include variations according to new technologies and consoles as Ps3 or Xbox 360, making the game more attractive in some aspects.

I recommend it to everyone that likes this genre and videogames in general.

Pole Vauting

Last weekend I had a competition in Madrid, it was really nice because the best pole vaulters from Spain were there.

The competition was won by Naroa who has the Spanish record, she jumped 4 metres and 50 centimetres, the second was Mar who trains with me, she jumped 4 metres. I was the fifth, I only could jump 3 metres and 50 centimetres but I liked so much to be able to jump with the best pole vaulters.

As I finished the competition soon I decided to go to visit some friends I have in Madrid and we were having a walk in the center of the city. At night, they went with me to the bus station and then I came back to Soria by bus.
