Title: Darth Vader & The Lost Command Author: Haden Blackman Illustrator: Rick Leonardi Pages: 128
Story - Still haunted by the death of Anakin Skywalker's beloved Padmé in Revenge of the Sith, Darth Vader is tasked with a mission to locate a lost Imperial expeditionary force--led by the son of Vader's rising nemesis, Moff Tarkin. But the perils of Vader's journey into the unexplored Ghost Nebula are compounded by traitors among his crew and the presence of the system's religious leader, Lady Saro.
The story is really an interesting read. The highlight of the story is definitely Vader. We see another side of Vader in this story, we see Vader questioning whether he made the right decision or not, with joining the Emperor. His dreams of Padme and family that he could of had, really makes you emphasize with Vader. However that really makes this story more enjoyable, as you see Vader take on his mission and unleash his rage and brutal ways, it makes you really think whether he has fully turn to the Darkside, or is he taking out his anger from his decision. It's a great read for fans of Star Wars. Haden Blackman gives an more interesting glance at the mind of Vader and fans will pleased, with the what if sequences that Vader thinks ups once he is alone. The story has conflict, turmoil and some cool action scenes as well.
Art - The art is not what I expected, but that isn't a bad thing. The art is very detail and some pictures look like color sketches which looks wonderful, during Vader's dream sequence. The details and battles look great and the emotion on Vader's eyes is greatly shown. Some might be thrown off by the art style, but it fits the story and universe.
Final Grade B-/8.0 - Darth Vader & The Lost Command is fun, dark and sad when you the layers of Vader is paid off. It's a nice look at Vader ruthless ways, but you can still see the good in him.
I was reading on Joystiq and they found out some games will need you to have internal memory, not a bad thing but only some games allow that, but the thing that is being said full is that if the game does save to the system it would only save there, even if you have a memory card, which is priority micro-SD cards which means it matters where you get the SD card, if its not made by Sony or someone else that Sony allows, you cant use a micro-SD care you got somewhere else.
So now it looks like its not optional to get the cheaper model and just a few memory cards. It looks like now you need to get the memory cards for the model with the internal HDD no matter what. This is not looking so good from the Vita at all when compared to the Nintendo 3DS. Look at the 3DS for a second and compare them, the 3DS doesn’t have a priority memory card you can use any micro-SD card you like, while the PSV you have to pick between different models that come in different sizes and it would all need memory cards, no matter which one you pick the game will have DLC but it was said that it might be downloaded to the cartridges, MIGHT DOWLOAD TO THE CARTRIDGES.
As of right now there are too many what if's with this system and whenever I hear something new my joy from hearing it from E3 this year, has been doing nothing but going down faster and faster. I still think this could have promise but the one thing that is making me even worry was how it is meant to be mainly a download system, that's a system that pretty much just has downloads on it. While there are going to be cartridges there is still the fact that am thinking I would still need to have a phone company on my system to get the most out of it. That is the one thing I don’t want to hear next, but with how it is going, I think the next thing we will hear would be that we need to have AT&T, which is the only phone company that will give the PSV a data plan. Really, I don’t have high hopes for the PSV but I will keep my eye opens on it. For now I will get stuck with my PSP and wait on getting my 3DS, which is in my plans for now.
Now for those that might be confused (like me) you can get the bundle and it does what I think it does. The bundle only comes with the most expensive PSV (3G and WI-FI inside the system so to use it fully you will need a data plan from AT&T), a 4GB memory card(which might be worth nothing, because of the fact that we don't know how big the games are and how its really pushing downloads beyond anything else or how big the download might be), a case for the PSV(I have no problems with that) and a copy of Little Deviants(its a collection of mini games to show off the PSV tech). All and all, this is pretty weak of Sony. They are pretty much forcing the 3G model down people's throats cause it comes with everything you would need, that being mainly the memory card. Everything else I would have to say is up to the person, however I still see very little value in that bundle and I would suggest everyone to wait and see how they clear things up.
I am just confused on how you need a memory card at all if the system got memory on the inside to begin with.

Dragonball Z is back with another Tenkaichi installment. DBZ Ultimate Tenkaichi introduces some new mechanics and modes, but is it enough for fans and gamers a like?
Story - The story follows the same story from every Dragonball Z game in existence. You follow the Z warriors as they battle and stop threats from the Saiyans, Freiza, Androids and Buu. Also you get a few stories from the movies. If you're familiar with the Anime, then you already know everything.
Gameplay - Dragonball Z Ultimate Tenkaichi has five main modes, Story Mode, Hero Mode, Online Mode, Battle Mode and World Tournament. Story Mode follows the story of the series from the Saiyan Saga to the Buu Saga. It is not a fully accurate story mode as they're missing a couple of key stories like Garlic Jr, and more. However it does stick to the main core of the story for the most part. Hero Mode is a new addition to the series. For the first time ever players can create their own Saiyan, as he hunts for the 7 Dragonballs to restore the world. The problem with Hero Mode is that you don't have much to do in creation department. Most of your characters will look very close to the Z fighters, and the option not to be a female Saiyan is disappointing for female gamers. The mode is the best in the game, with RPG like elements. You will take your Saiyan and train with various characters to gain attacks, stats and aura for your Saiyan to choose from. The story is pretty interesting and it has some cool battles for you. The other modes are pretty basic, online works smoothly depending on the other players connection. The game has enough content to keep you playing, but how it plays is a whole different ball game.
The gameplay is not bad, but it's a little too easy and too repetitive. The gameplay is simple, you have your main attack button, which leads into a choice of quicktime events. This is basically a game of chance if your facing the CPU. You will have a choice of the melee attack, or the teleporting attacks, if you and CPU select the same thing, the CPU will counter. It's a game of chance and it can get very tiring very quickly, another disappointing thing is Super Attacks take too long to build up. Gone is the combinations, or build up to the attacks. It's melee until your meter is full, powering up your KI doesn't help towards your Super Attacks or Ultimate Attack, it just boost your melee. Players will get two Super Attacks and one Ultimate Attacks. Besides the Super Attacks, Fighting Stances, KI Aura and Ultimate Attack, every single character fights the exact same way. The same melee sequences happen, the counters are only three choices, intercept, evade and guard. Sometimes you can't even counter, you have to just take the attack. Another annoying part is, sometimes you can be dominating an enemy and they somehow have energy for a full blast.
The gameplay does capture to feel of the series, but the fact that each fighter feels the same and you basically don't do any real playing, the constant quicktime events might turn off some players. There is no real strategy on winning, it's basically on a game of chance and who has at higher power level. It will get very stale, really quickly.
Gameplay Video
Graphics - The game looks amazing, this really took a page from Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm 2. This is actually the best graphics in the series, the environment, lighting effects and presentation nail the show down the middle. The characters look great and their bodies look very detail, the facial expressions and the best part, the planet exploding. Also real cutscenes from the Dragonball Kai series makes the story mode worth playing.
Sound - The sound has some issues in the voice acting department. It's not the voice acting, both English and Japanese did a good job. It's the annoying two English voice actors for one character that feel really weird. For example in sometimes you will hear the original voice actress who play Frieza in one dialogue, then the next dialogue you'll hear the Kai actor. It switches from original DBZ to Kai and it gets annoying. Gohan also has this problem. The music is generic, but has some pretty cool tracks. It allows custom soundtracks, but however you can't import them into the game, you just have to play it from your music playlist. Overall the sound is decent, and the music will be awesome if you put the soundtrack on your systems.
Replay Value - Regardless of it's shortcomings, this game has some replay value, mainly in Hero Mode and World Tournament. Hero Mode leveling up and RPG elements will keep players on the grind, especially since you can fight online with your Saiyan.
Final Grade D+/6.5 - Dragonball Z Ultimate Tenkaichi isn't a bad game, but it isn't a good one. Heck you hardly play at all, but it still enjoyable thanks to Hero Mode and some online fun. The custom soundtracks is a nice addition, but the two voice actors at once is annoying. The game captures the feel of DBZ, but I just wish they let you actually be part of it. Final Grade D+/6.5.
