Hey Otakus this week's Fan Art is from My Neighbor Totoro. Check out these awesome pictures that we found. I really love the second picture. However each picture is wonderful in detail and color. Anime Rules!!!
Hey everybody! It's been a while since I did a review about anything. I missed manga/comic week which I will make up to you guys later. Right now I want to talk about one of my fav shows, HETALIA!
Synopsis
Axis Powers Hetalia is about countries from WW1 and WW2 personified by handsome men. lol. The thing that makes this show really a comedy is that they make fun of the other countries. Sure there is offensive banter however some of the banter has a reason behind it. I will explain why.
Hetalia gives us facts about the countries and other fun facts during WW1 and WW2. Thats why the jokes are so funny. Now I hear people out there say that the show is racist. Not true. The creator of Hetalia wasn't trying to be racist. Here is what I found out while reading the Hetalia manga:
"....One of my original ideas for this manga was to create a story about really useless, uncool heroes with New York as a setting. While I was researching different personalities for the countries, I found a website with a bunch of ethnic jokes. Throughout my research, I kept seeing jokes about Italy's military like: "Do we have enough white flags?" or "While everyone else is fighting, Italy was busy retreating." Seeing silly little tidbits like this got me interested in the Italian military and ended up forming the foundation of the manga." " ...... Hetalia Axis Powers was intended to be a one-shot story...."
Well thats the origin and the synopsis.
Grade A+
I give this an A+. The facts and comedy is spot on and everyone has there own opinion about this show. I still love it no matter what. Lets all "MAKE PASTA NOT WAR! Anime Rules!!!!!!
His Music. His Moves. Your Experience. Michael Jackson The Experience has been released on the Wii. The game is consist of 26 songs from The King Of Pop himself. Players will part take in Michael's choreography. Is this worth putting on the glove? Or should you moonwalk away from this?
Story - Sadly there is no story mode in this game. I would've really like to had a career mode in this. A career mode would have been great. I would like to see me as an aspiring dancer who main goal is to join Michael on his concert tour. Sadly we don't see anything. It's a miss opportunity.
Gameplay - The game only comes with two modes. Dance and Dance School. Dance School is just filled with tutorials on how to perform the moves. However you have to unlock these tutorials by going to Dance mode. This didn't really make any sense to me. How am I suppose to learn the moves, if you're going to throw me in the lions den first? Besides that minor complaint. The game is beyond amazing. This is the dance game for the ages. Almost every song has it's original choreography. The key in this game is precision. Players will have to be precise if they want to get a good rating. The game consists of 26 songs which will be listed below. Depending on the song you can choose to follow Michael or the back up dancer. Each song is rated from Easy, Medium, Hard or Inhuman (for Thriller). The dance moves are very difficult to pull off, if you don't know what your doing. Trust me Dance School is going to become your best friend. The game also features a 4 player multiplayer and that's where the fun really comes. The joy of trying to be in sync with your friends, while trying to get the highest score is a blast. Memorization is the key to the game, it will take a lot of time and dedication to become a master. For that reason this is why the gameplay is so addictive, you are not going to settle for anything less than a five. The controls work smoothly for the most part. The Wii Mote is responsive 95% of the time. However there were sometimes where the Wii didn't recognize my moves. You have to be precise to win this game. Sadly there is no online play. Also beware though this game is a workout!
List Of Songs • Bad • Beat It • Billie Jean • Black or White • Dirty Diana • Don’t Stop ‘Til You Get Enough • Earth Song • Ghosts • Heal the World • In The Closet • Leave Me Alone • Money • Remember the Time • Rock with You • Smooth Criminal • Speed Demon • Streetwalker • Sunset Driver • The Girl Is Mine • The Way You Make Me Feel • They Don’t Care About Us • Thriller • Wanna Be Startin’ Somethin’ • Who Is It • Will You Be There • Workin' Day and Night
Gameplay Video
Graphics - The graphics are pretty good. The environments are nostalgia of Michael's videos. "Thriller" is taken place in a graveyard. "They Don't Care About Us" is taking place in a prison. You have CGI Michael and his backup dancers guiding you as the dance moves are taking place. The graphics are colorful and no framerate issues. It's nice graphics for a dance game.
Sound - All 26 songs are some of Michael's best. Sadly a few songs I would've like to see such as "Off The Wall", "Get On The Floor" and "Blood On The Dance Floor." However the songs that are chosen are some of the King Of Pop's best. The dance coaches also deliver and you really feel like you are being trained for a show.
Replay Value - There is tons of replay value. Players are always going to want to improve their score. Bring a friend and double the competition and passion to become the best. In time trust me you will be like Mike or as good as his backup dancers.
Final Grade A-/9.0 - The game is amazing. Learning Michael's move is a challenge and it will take a lot of time. Great tracks, great moves and good graphics. This is truly an experience for any dance fan or Michael Jackson fan. The final grade is A-/9.0.

"I don't care if I live or if I die. I don't mind if I fall or if I fly." That is the theme song for the new James Bond game Bloodstone. In this game James Bond returns to third person genre. Unlike many Bond games this is an original story. Should you take up the new mission? Or don't you care whether you buy or not?
Story - An international conspiracy has placed the UK's most secretive bio-chemical project into deadly hands, and only Her Majesty's most lethal agent, James Bond, can unravel the mystery. To navigate through layers of corruption. Bond will embark on global chase that will have him battling on land, sea, and air through Athens, Istanbul, Monaco, and Bangkok. Nothing is what it seems as each adventure reveals a deeper and more sinister conspiracy. The story is intriguing and will keep you entertain till the end. I used the synopsis this time because I don't want to spoil anything. The story is good enough for a Bond game, however some villains are not developed enough. Regardless of that I enjoyed the story right to the cliffhanger ending.
Gameplay - The game is in the third person shooter genre. The gameplay doesn't really add anything new to the third person shooter genre. However don't let that stop you. This is game is fun! Activision really captures Daniel Craig's Bond. This game is what some was hoping Quantum Of Solace would be. What really makes this a Daniel Craig's Bond game, is his aggressiveness.The gameplay introduces a mechanic called Focus Aim. In Focus Aim the action slows down, to give Bond a clear headshot at the enemies. This is a great tool to use for faraway enemies. The Focus Aim can replenished only by doing melee attacks or stealth takedowns. Don't think that it will be a cakewalk to replenish the Focus Aim. There are tons of enemies to face and they are smart to an extent. Enemies would sneak up behind you and melee attack you. They also somehow dodge your bullets. The problem I had with the gun fights were sometimes it felt unrealistic. I would be shooting an MP5 at the guys chest and he didn't go down for a while. This happen with soldiers and guys with heavy armor. The game is easy overall and that's thanks to the cover system and regeneration health. I think a game like this needs health packs. The regeneration takes a lot away from the challenge of this game. James Bond is also know for his gadgets. However in Daniel Craig's Bond, realism is the key in the game. The only gadget Bond has is his smartphone. Trust me Bond has the smartest smartphone in the world. His smartphone can hack into doors, relay satellite images and even have a sonar effect so he can see detect enemies. It's a great tool, but really doesn't add too much to the game, minor a few doors and engines needing to be turn on.
However besides the shooting, their are some nice driving missions which really steals the show. Almost every level has Bond in some vehicle. Bond will be driving a boat, a car and even a truck in his missions. The driving missions are the highlight of the game. It's tons of fun tearing up Bangkok, or driving in the Arctic and having the ice break. You will fail the missions a couple of times though, but it takes a little memorization to know what lane to stay in. The single campaign should take about 7 to 8 hours to beat. The multiplayer is beyond disappointing. It only has three game modes, Team Deathmatch, Objective and Last Man Standing. Players will be able to choose from spies and mercenaries. I experience a little bit of lagging on my playthrough, but it's nothing new under the sun. The maps weren't that great and the weapon you start with you will re-spawn with. Also good luck with melee kills. Overall the single campaign is a blast and the multiplayer is a drag.
Gameplay Video
Graphics - The graphics is amazing. This game is very detail when it comes to capturing the environment. I love the way Bangkok looks in this game. It really felt like I was in China, the details on the streets, lights and Chinese ad's were all put into great care. However I did see some hiccups on driving levels like see through walls and blend issues. Otherwise than those complaints this really captures the world of Bond.
Sound - Richard Jacques has brought a great soundtrack that not only compliments Bond, but really makes the action more intense. Joss Stone delivers an amazing opening song "I'll Take It All." The voice acting is one of the best this year, with A-List actors Daniel Craig and Judi Dench reprising their roles. Joss Stone also lends her voice to the game as the Bond girl "Nicole." She does a great job for the time that she is in the game. The sound is not an issue in this game.
Replay Value - The single campaign is a blast to play through. Since you get Trophies/Achievements for playing it on 007 level you will play through it a second time. There are also intelligence Intel to gather for collectors out there. You can try to average multiplayer if you like as well. It has enough to keep you playing.
Final Grade B-/8.0 - The game is a worthy edition to the James Bond library. Its has a decent story minus the plot holes missing, it set ups for a sequel. The sound is epic and Joss Stone really brings her talents to this game. The gameplay is what you wanted from Daniel Craig's Bond. It's aggressive and straight to the point. The multiplayer is a disappointment and doesn't provide much fun. Regardless of it's flaw this is a game all Bond fans and gamers should at least check out. Final Grade is B-/8.0.
It's Music Monday. This time we play some of our favorite tracks from the Scott Pilgrim Vs The World (The Game OST). It's an amazing album you can buy it on Amazon or I-tunes. It's some of the best Videogame music to come out this year.
Call us late to the party. But I came across this while I was searching for what new Japanese horror to watch. Apparently they made a Sailor Moon live action TV show. The show follows the same storyline and everything. It looks a little cheesy, but it seem like it would fun to watch. What do you think? Is this an epic win or epic fail?
Hey Otakus this week's Fan Art is from My Neighbor Totoro. Check out these awesome pictures that we found. I really love the second picture. However each picture is wonderful in detail and color. Anime Rules!!!
