The Clackamas Print
With the Wii U being
released it marks the beginning
o f the end for this generation
o l co n so le s and it only seems
fitting that this year was one
of the best years for download­
able titles In the past few year-»
with ihe start ot the download­
able game craze there v ere only
one or two standout games from
each year.
This year we were met w ifh a
bunth of initovime, unique and
amazing dou nloadable titles that
will be lememheied toi lar-,
to come. With no I., u ido I
present you my top five down­
loadable games for this year that
I feel are the i ■ n o f the crop.

This drug-laden, inuidenlk
game made to give you night­
mares and probably slight hal-
liiuii.inons is i ' iic y o n will never
want to forget. Everything from
the music to the background is
meant to make you feel uneasy
as you mil tliiough a house up-
pi lg out throats and putting dulls
into mobsters' skulls.
fhe game is from an over­
head view, but don't think you
won’t still get your stomach
turning from ultra-violence that
puts God of War to shame. The
context o f this game is what
makes it all worth it ¡1 1« bated

game it is really only meant
to confuse you until the end

had 36 students sign up for that,”
said Kaylea Henderson o f the
ASG. “Depending on how many
members there are in a family
will depend on how much food
we give them.”
The Cougar Cave gets most o f
their product via donations from
staff, although students and the
general public can, and do from
time to time.
“We accept donations year
round, anything from food,
cloths, hygiene, shoes, a little
o f everything,” said Henderson.
“It’s mainly the staffers who
come in and donate.”
The Cougar Cave is open
M ondays and W ednesdays 11
a.m. to noon and 1 p.m. to 2 p.m.,
and Tuesdays, noon to 1 p.m.
I f you are in need and the
Cougar Cave is closed, stop by
CC 152 and let them know.
“You can go into the ASG
office and anybody will come and
open it up for you,” said Valdiva.
The Cougar Cave is always
accepting donations and is cur­
rently in need o f ties and socks
especially.

” Tokyo Jungle” is a game
with no humans: we just disap­
peared one day and the animals
are now in charge, it just hap­
pens to take pi ace in io! n For
ail intents and purposes this is a
Rouge-like game, which means
you gel one life before it is game
You start out as a Pomeranian
01 a Sika Deei and by a^ e u i
plishing specific tasks, like tak­
ing ovei territories or taking out
n v a l e a m iv o ie s o r heibnoies
you can become biggei and hel-
ter animals like bears or hippo­
potamuses.
You only have 15 ye irs pel
generation before you star, 10 die
o f old age, so you have to find a
mate (which gives you a pack
to run with) and mark territory
befbic then. With all these ele­
ments it makes for exciting and
intense gameplay and oh yeah!

Amid the hustle and bustle o f
the college is a place much more
calm and subdued than the rest o f
the school. It’s a place where you
can find some food if you’re hun­
gry and some clothes or hygiene
products if you need those too.
Some o f us have needed some
sort o f help at one time or anoth­
er, some o f us still do. For others
it’s their first time needing help
w ith basic necessities.
This is what the Cougar Cave
is for: it’s a place for current
students to get some basic needs
met.
According to Jessica Valdiva,
of
C lackam as
C om m unity
C ollege’s A ssociated Student
Government, who is responsible
for the Cougar Cave, only current
CCC students are able to apply
for the products provided to stu­
dents in need though on aver­
age, the Cougar Cave only serves
about 10 people a week.
While this seems like a very
small amount o f people taking
advantage p f the service ASG
offers, there’s a simple explana­
tion.
“Almost no one knows about
the Cougar Cave,” said Valdiva.
The C ougar Cave, aptly
named as it’s a small room filled
with mostly clothes, is located in
the Community Center, or more
specifically inside the Fireside
Lounge. There are signs pro­
claiming that the Cougar Cove is
there, to help those in need.
Roger Schauffler, a student at
CCC, recently checked out the
Cougar Cave for the first time.
“I was surprised at all the
goodies in there,” said Schauffler.
“I ’ve been going to college for
six terms and I’ve always wanted
to stop by. It inspired me to come
in and donate something; there’s
a variety o f clothes and good
food.”
D uring the holiday season,
more people are in need, espe­
cially o f food.
