Hey Guys,

Usually i don't pre-order games but nowadays with such high demand for the big sellers i had to start last year with GTA IV, wich was the very first game i ever pre-ordered, now i find my self pre-ordering bassically all my games just incase.

Star Ocean the Last Hope:

Release Date: 5th June

I'm a big star ocean fan so for me this was pretty much a must plus alot of user reviews helped me decide weather to get it or not so im looking foward to it.

Infamous:

Release Date: may 29th (UK )

Ah yes Infamous, Honestly i'm one of those people who think Prototype looks AND WILL BE better than Infamous here also like with all open world games i get the feeling it's going to get boring pretty quickly but in the time before it gets boring ithink it's going to kick some ass.

Tales Of Vesperia:

Release Date: June 30th

After months of **** on about it and waiting Tales of Vesperia is finally here ( well June 30th ) im still sorta annoyed by the fact that it took 10 months or so to code it for PAL regions, if it was on the PS3 i would of just imported it becuase Blu-ray is so handy with it's amazing region Free.

Now the Demo also hit the Xbox marketplace sometime last week, so i played it and to be honest at first some of the in game cutscenes felt alittle clunky and some of the voice acting was pretty bad but overall it had amazing cell-shading graphics, greatreal time fighting engine and it has a dog thawt smokes a pipe i mean COME ON xD.

Eueka Seven Box Set 1 and 2

Release Date for both: May 26th

No one may know this but Eueka Seven is actually my Favourite Anime of all time so natrually i was pretty stoked when i found both box sets open for pre-order, i'm assuming that each box set has 25 episodes on to make up the 50 episodes Eureka Seven has, but yeah can't wait :P.

Of course i've pre-ordered the likes of COD MW 2 and bad company 2 but i think most people have so i didn't really need to include them...

Hey Guys,

So yeah, i haven't posted a handheld review for a long while and well thats becuase not alot of hand held games intrest me. I figure that alot of hand held games have crappy controls on the PSP or DS like first person shooters, However i have recently bought some RPGS for the hand helds and the only problem i have with RPG hand helds are the stupid side missions that are pointless ( I'm looking at you Crisis Core >.> ) but yeah here's what i got:

Tales of Eternia:

Now the back of the box says the game has ''dynamic real-time combat'' as well as having ''breathtaking 2D graphics'' and contains ''60 hours of gameplay''.

I could proberly tell everyone right now this games does NOT contain 60 hours of gameplay and i haven't even played it, ALOT of games claim to have endless hours of gameplay but alot of it is useless side quests and reading texts -__-.

Well anyway it did get good user reviews so we'll see what happens considering Tales of Vesperia comes out June 30th so we'll see if i can finish it before then :P.

( heres alittle screenshot for everyone :P.

Final Fantasy IV:

A game that i had already played but that was the original japanese inport about 2 or 3 years ago, as it was in japanese i couldn't understand a word of it but i thought the gameplay was pretty well thought out for the NES so im really looking foward to playing in in full 3D.

(Another screenshot for you nice people :P.)

Star Ocean First Departure:

I'm actually a big fan of Star Ocean considering it delivers on what i want from a JRPG which it a cool mithos, intresting combat and some sort of romance, don't ask me why but for some reason i prefer a JRPG to have some sort of romance in it and Star Ocean has that in most of it's games ( guess thats why i put some hate on FF 12 even though that was a bad game xD).

(theres alot of Shiit going on in that one it seems ).

Hey Guys,

So yeah im quite suprissed that i completed Persona 4 today i thought i was still a ways off but pretty soon after i'd finished my previous blog i started playing it and funny enough the story was so good i couldn't put it down until i saw those credits role.

Long story short its an amazing game, check out the review if you got time. thanks.

P.S. now ive completed this i can noew start reviewing actual PS3 games again without being addicted to Persona 4 >.>... Maybe Disgea 3 Absense of justice ( another JRPG thats proberly long as hell )

Hey Guys,

Finally got another two reviews out which im glad to have done ( especially baad company XD) they both took me a LONG time to write and read through and change multiple times which kinda anoyyed me but hey, i like spreading my opinion.

Now the next 2 reviews that im '' HOPING '' to get out is Shin Megami Tensei Persona 4 ( i dont think you know how awesome this game is ) and COD W@W so be sure to look out for those sometime within the next week. ( I hope becuase Persona 4 is LONG and ive already sunk 40 + hours into, so im hoping to have it completed within the next week xD ).

EDIT: Iv'e recently looked up more of ATLUS made games and found that they seem to be a good little game company with their games getting 8.0 ratings and above for most of there games so i was wondering if anyone can recommend any other ATLUS made games considering ive only played P3 FES and P4. Thanks.

Hey guys,

I recently posted up my reviews for FEAR 2 and Left 4 Dead, which actually was pretty fustrating considering i hadn't written a review for such a long time it took me a while to get into the swing of things but im pretty happy about it.

Next up will most proberly be a Resident Evil 5 Review ( considering i've played and complted it on ALL difficulties, YES EVEN on on the hardest ) and also Battlefield Bad company, which i wanted to post sometime last year when i actually completed the game xD.

Full Metal Panic!

Hey Guys,

So yeah im going to try and keep this blog post as short as i can.

It's kinda strange how i just fined my Full Metal Panic Recommendation review when i stumble across this bit of news...

In April 2009, a live action film adaptation was announced by Mandalay Pictures, with Zac Efron rumored to be attached to the project.[2] Efron has since confirmed a meeting took place regarding the project but added that the adaption was not likely to happen.

Now those of you who do not know who Zac Efron is, he was the guy in all three High School Musical films ( yeah that guy ).

I'd just like to state that i have nothing personal against the guy in any way but, in my opinion, apaert from the SLIGHT resemblence of him looking like Sosuke Sagara ( Main Character in the Ful Metal Panic Anime ) there is nothing else, what im refering to of couse is basically that all i know of Zac Efron is that he can sing ( matter of opinion ) and Sosuke is a rather deep character emotionally so i was wondering how Zac would beable to pull it off... if at all.

At the end of the day me blogging about it isnt going to change anything, i just hope that Zac Efron ( if he does get the role and if the film is made ) has some deep hidden acting talent that i dont know about.

EDIT: oh yeah i also should of added how i hope that, that part about the adaptation being unlikely was true.

Hey guys,

before i officially start the blog post I'd just like to plug Anime-Planet...

Why? you ask, well just becuase its an awesome website about (Yes you guessed it ) Anime.

http://www.anime-planet.com/users/Ashwyn (my account )

Anime-Planet it basically acts like a library for anime where you can fine anime in there different genre and information on them, also as well as this you can list these anime into 5 catagories as well as rate the anime you've watched out of 5 stars:

Watched - Seen all episodes of a crtain anime

Watching - Currently watching Anime (plus add what episode your on )

Want to Watch - Anime that are currently airing but you wanna wait for them to finish to watch them like me :D or older anime that you havent had to the time to watch

Stalled - Anime that you've watched certain episode off but sorta put aside, again because your wating for episodes to come out or like me waiting for certain shows to get past damn fillers *cough* Bleach *cough* Naruto.

Dropped - Anime shows that you've seen a few episodes of but though sucked. *cough* code geass (please dont hate me xD )

Wont Watch - Im guessing people know this one considering its pretty simple

Its also got a Manga section thats sorta still in its BETA form.

Anyway onto the main blog Topic which it my recommened/Review top Anime:

Full Metal Panic

Ah yes Full Metal Panic... Well the show consists of Three series

Full Metal Panic! - a 24 episode series that Newcomers should start with.

Full Metal Panic! Fummofu - Sorta like a 12 episode OVA that you dont have to watch in the middle, you can watch it last if you wish considering there only mild refrences pointing back to the first series. The reason i say its more of an OVA is becuase its mainly Comedy but dont let that fool you if you like Full Metal Panic but havent seem this your SERIOUSLY MISSING OUT.

Full Metal Panic Second Raid - a 12 or 13 episode ( cant exactly remember xD )conclution to Full Metal Panic! thats a just as good as the first.

Genre - Action ( all three series ), Military ( All three series ), Mecha (All three series but less in Fummofu) Tsundere ( All three series ) Romantic Comedy ( All three series but focused on in Fummofu )

Summary - Gonzo does it again with this action-packed mecha comedy. She's an ordinary high school girl. He's a counterterror agent assigned to protect her from those who would steal the information locked in her mind. OK, so she's not so normal after all. Armored Slave battles and lovers' spats abound as Sousuke and his comrades try to track down the mysterious Gauln before it's too late.

Own thoughts -Believe it or not The English Dubbed version is actually good so id recommend atleast trying considering Chris Patton does a great job here.Now i know from the Summary some poeple might be thinking '' Oh this must be one of those Harem anime thats just about how the guy has to choose which girl to go out with ''.

trust me if you like any of those Genres, ANY.

This is a MUST WATCH.

Rating - 9.5 out of 10.

Next Recommendation/Review -

Mortal Kombat VS DC Universe:

A game that sorta took me by suprise considering i havent been intrested in Mortal Kombat for years becuase to me all the games feel pretty much the same just with more characters, however, this particular game should not be missed if your a fighting game fan.

Disgea 3 Absence of Justice:

Now i brought this game on a whim and that whim was '' i like JRPG's '' i had never played a Disgea game before and was shocked when i played it for the first time and the in game graphics were 2d sprites but, im actually really enjoying the game from its simplistic and funny storyline to even the english dubbing which is suprissingly decent.

Lost Odyssey:

Would it be wrong of me to state that is is proberly the best JRPG on the 360???

Atleast until tales of Vesperia and Star Ocean last hope are released in June :P ( i live in the UK we seem to get the middle finger when it comes to JRPG releases >.> )

Well in my eyes it is, it has the best story ive seen in a game since the likes of Final Fantasy 10 in my opinion, great in game and cut scene rendered graphics as well as a great cast of deep characters. There is but one thing thats stopping me from completing this 4 disc game and thats the random battle encounters which irritate me at times ( especially where i am now on Disc 2, im lost and its hard to find where to go when im engaging in battle every 20 seconds >.> ).

Sega Mega Drive Ultimate Collection:

Streets of Rage 1, 2 and 3 you say?

Sonic 1, 2 and 3 you say?

Golden Axe 1, 2 and 3 you say?

Phantasy Star 2 and 3 you say?

Plus more you say?

HD rendered Graphics you say?

ONLY £25 YOU SAY?

OWNED OWNED OWNED... enough said :P

title says it all ive got my hands on quite a few games actually and now im active again am hoping to review as many as i can :P...

Call of Duty World At War:

Basically COD 4 set in world war 2 but it still kicks ass plus ive spent most of my time on this thats why reviewing time has been limited xD.

StreetFighter 4:

A game that i truly Suck at to be perfectly honest ( even on easy )but i love the art ****and will eventually buy an arcade stick so i dont have to use the crappy xbox controller.

Destroy All Humans Path of Furon:

I was a big fan of the first 2 destroy all human games on the PS2 so natrually i got this :P. Unfortunatly though i have not played past the first few missions since i bought it a month or two ago however first impressions is that it plays the same as the first two soits all good.

FEAR 2 Project Origin:

I've actually nearly completed this game so a review will most proberly be on the way, also im liking the game it has alot of blood :twisted: however the multiplatyer side of it isnt all that great xD..

Part 2 of the blog starts with a few notices:

1. although part 2 this occured perhaps a week later

2. after some careful thought and persuation i decided to part company with Star Wars the Force Unleashed and Spiderman Web of Shadows by trading them in becuase they had very little replay value.

Gears Of War 2:

Gears of War 2 one of the most anitcipated games of the year and i got it today (November 7, release date) for a cut price of just £30 . Now i had never previously played the first Gears of War so the only thing making me want to get this was the fact it has STELLER graphics and the online as co-op.

Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm:

Being a Naruto fan myself this was a must and considering i traded in two PS3 GAMES ( spiderman and star wars) i needed something new and fresh to play and as i played and liked the demo i went for it.

James Bond: Quantum of Solace:

Now i know that Gamespots review of this game was only a 7.0 meaning its an ok game, but to be honest i stopped listening and believing gamespot reviews a LONG TIME AGO. Plus i heard it has Bourne like take down moves and runs with the COD 4 engine.
