Posted on 08-18-11 12:29 AM, in So, Bleach might be ending soon. *spoilers* Link
So, the nerd in me couldn't stop keeping up to date with this.

I'm quiet impressed with how the story turned around so far.
They finally got the hell off Ichigo's Fullbring.

Luckily
Spoiler:
Urahara and the rest of the Captians slammed their energy into a blade, that allowed Rukia to stab Ichigo. Again.


Needless to say, the ownage has begun.

Lets try a game. The game is to post the most rediclous thing you can find at the moment, and see just how farfetched we can get this stuff. Also more commonly refered to as Troll Logic.

Let me start this off:

And let's not forget the humorous (yet probably true) proof that Barney The Dinosaur is the Antichrist or Satan. This states that if you take the phrase CUTE PURPLE DINOSAUR, then convert U to V and cut everything that isn't a Roman numeral, then the sum of the result (C+ V+ V+ L+ D+ I+ V) is 100+ 5+ 5+ 50+ 500+ 1+ 5 is 666.

Posted on 10-08-11 05:49 PM, in Devil May Cry 5, and how Capcom sold it's soul Link
I've been digging into this a little bit more, and I'm also getting a lot of word of mouth stuff, so bare that in mind:

From what I've gathered, Capcom has given them the rights to ReBoot the series, so this isn't just a parody game, it's a full on new re-release of what the series is going to turn into.

The system, yes, I will admit, looks great. However, no matter how amazing the game system is, when everything is lacking, it makes for a poor game.

From word-of-mouth, the Ninja guys sent in original art for capcom to say yay or nay to, and apperenly they shot down all the old art that kept Dante who he was, and told them to remake him entirely.

The biggest thing that everyone is having an issue with, is not the fact that Dante was changed, it was the fact Dante now looks like the Head Ninja Guy. It was that egotistical move that pissed off diehard fans of the series.

I seriously doubt this would have been an issue if he wasn't molded into a splitting image. (refer to the first few posts of this thread)

A few other issues that raised from this are what they did with Dante's personality. Yes, we all know Dante as the badass demon hunter who has a smartass personality, but form what they have show, is he's no longer just a smart ass, but just an asshole in general. I doubt the fact he now smokes made anyone too happy either. (My money says they gave him Camels to smoke)

Dante was kinda the "too cool for drugs" type, as he was depicted as the guy who got off and his job (and pizza), and not needing any external sources of chemical influences.

Also an interesting note, if they do decide to keep going with this, I can only hope that they keep going with an ongoing thing they were playing with:

Apperently Devil May Cry exists in the same timeline as the Shin Megami Tensei games. Refer to Nocturne, for Dante was an optional boss.

Also, from what I gather, part of their apology to gamers, they made Dante's new Devil Trigger give him blonde hair. (Even though the new DT is now just an aerial combo stunt.)

So, being a diehard Devil May Cry fan, I can honestly say that if the -only- thing that's diffrent about our new Dante is his retarded character model, I can forgive it. But if the story blows, he keeps up with this asshole personality, and doesn't give up the substance abuse, it will just kill the game. (In my opinion)

Posted on 10-26-11 11:57 AM, in PETA sues Sea World for Whale Slavery Link
http://blogs.miaminewtimes.com/riptide/2011/10/peta_sues_seaworld_over_allege.php


PETA, everyone's favorite group of totally rational animal activists, has launched a new legal attack against SeaWorld this morning, accusing parks in Orlando and California of mistreating five killer whales. Which, actually, OK! There are lots of reasonable arguments against keeping orcas in captivity.

PETA's argument, however, is that the killer whales are actually "slaves" whose rights are being violated under the 13th Amendment. Counterpoint: Whales are not people.

PETA's lawsuit, which they will file in California federal court later this morning, argues that the 13th Amendment -- you know, the one that abolished slavery -- "does not specify that only humans can be victims," the AP reports.

Here's what John Kerr, PETA's legal counsel, has to say about the ... unique argument.

"By any definition, these orcas are slaves -- kidnapped from their homes, kept confined, denied everything that's natural to them and forced to perform tricks for SeaWorld's profit. The males have their sperm collected, the females are artificially inseminated and forced to bear young which are sometimes shipped away."

SeaWorld, meanwhile, is left in the odd position of trying to prove in court that orcas are not people.

"(This suit) is baseless and in many ways offensive," the company says in a statement. "There is no higher priority than the welfare of the animals in our care."

It's not as though SeaWorld is the easiest entity to sympathize with here.

One of the whales named -- as plaintiffs! -- in the PETA suit is Tillikum. You might remember him from last year, when he dragged a trainer underwater during a show and drowned her; despite evidence the whale had contributed to two other deaths, SeaWorld keeps trotting him out for shows.

Today's lawsuit, like most PETA activities, is geared more toward pissing people off and sparking arguments than actually winning in court.

Even with more law schools open to the possibility of expanding animals' legal rights, a federal court isn't going to hear a case arguing that whales have Constitutional rights, the AP writes.

"A court would not be predisposed to opening up that box with fully unknown consequences," says Michigan State law professor David Favre.

On the upside, PETA has gone a whole morning without making fun of shark attack victims or upsetting Holocaust survivors. So there's that.

Posted on 10-26-11 07:24 PM, in Player Review: DBZ: Ultimate Tenkaichi Link


Welcome to my personal little review of this game. I went out and bought this game yesterday, and thought I would share, just incase any of you thought about picking this 'game' up.
Remember, this entire review is based on my personal opinion. Every gamer is different and have different experiences. Don't post in here if it's just to nuke me for my opinion, however, user input is greatly appreciated to apply a wider view range to fellow gamers who are interested in said game.

Scoring scale:
A simple 1-10 scale
1 (would rather play barbie's dream house adventure)
5 (completely average)
10 (The heavens broke open and handed this shit to you, it's that awesome)

anything in between can be based on your imagination, aha.

GRAPHICS
Lets get down to the nitty gritty of this game. This was one of two giant selling points of this game, and quite frankly, I'm impressed. I'm a big hater of Cell Shading, but my god, they managed to crank this up to amazing results.
The graphics used in this game have blown all the others out of the water, and make watching the anime almost unbearable.
Score: 9.0

SOUND
If your looking for amazing music, then go back to the anime. This game hasn't done much different then anything else. The biggest change I've noticed, from game to game, was that the intro uses the old school Japanese song.
Don't get me wrong, that's fine and all, but I'd have liked to have seen some remixed stuff.
That's not what drove me insane though, it was the horrible English lip syncing involved. It's like they didn't even try anymore. More times then I could count in fights, or cut scenes, word's would fly out of their closed mouths, or just standing there like idiots with their jaw flapping, or hanging, when they were meant to talk/scream, with no audio involved.
Score: 4.0

GAME PLAY
This is where this game truly hurts.
This game's idea was to take the anime, and make it playable. Well, they kind have succeeded. You see, instead of taking Tenkaichi 3's system, where you have full active use of the fight-from fighting, to blocking, to counters, to spam moves-to full on, button timing, mini-games.

And the mini-games are even more horrid then that. You no longer can truly "Dodge" attacks. You can block, which causes your character to move into a matrix dodging bullet maneuver, then if you get a hit in, you must press the button two or three times to activate a cut-scene. During this cut-scene, you must press square or triangle. If you press a different button then your enemy, you go into an automatic cut-scene of punches, only to input the occasional Square/Triangle+direction to launch the enemy, for more auto moves.
If you fail that original press, the enemy hits you hard.

Forget about dashing toward the enemy. Doing this causes you to do a chase/advance auto cut-scene, where you must press left or right. If you get the opposite direction then your enemy, you hit them and move to Melee/blast range.

While on that note, the fights are broken up into two stages: Melee and Blast. When in melee, you are stuck in an invisible ring around your enemy, and cannot leave the proximity unless you double-tap X to go into your auto cut-scene to have a 50/50 button press chance to get away.

When in blast range, your square melee now becomes blast shots. From here, if your blasts connect, you -teleport to your enemey- to continue the old ass auto cut-scene fight you were trying to avoid.

Now, the super attacks.

You ask, what is so wrong with the super attacks? Well... aha.

When you activate it by flicking the right stick up/down, you go into an auto cut-scene. You don't get to manually dodge, no (which makes me wonder why they bothered giving you the ability to sidestep at all, let allow "boost" sidestep) you get to - if you have energy press circle for block, square for evade (which becomes a rytheme mini-game, failure means getting tagged) or triangle for intervening (which becomes 'who can press triangle faster' to win moment).

But wait, they promised destructible environments!

For the cut-scene only. All the destruction is scripted to land in the same spot, and only a quarter of the real damage stays active -in the background-. They kinda lacked at all in that category.

Just incase I forget, the cut-scene scripted boss battles weren't much better. Fighting Giant Ape Vegeta was painful in general, clumsy combo punches to barely hurt him, which causes the right of the fight to become a 5 minute long button pressing sequence. Riiiight.
Score: 2.5

BONUS CONTENT
I decided to put there here since I put enough stuff in game-play.

The bonus content is the stuff you unlock, right? This also involves Character Creation/Hero Mode.

So far, there isn't much to unlock. You get dragohballs so you can wish for a piece of costume for a cannon character, or a battle map.

That's about it for Story unlocks.

Hero Mode unlockables are about the same in content. You start off with a Goku lookalike (with a blue undershirt) Goku lookalike (without an undershirt) and a Brolly look alike.

You start off with changing your hair from Goku, to sholderlength Vegeta, to Bald.
Then you change from Goku w/sleeve, Goku w/o sleeve, and Brolly.
Then you get 4 different sections you can custom color. (At least the color selection is nice)
Then you get to add a logo symbol and/or a scouter.

And no, you can't make a female.

And yes, there ARE unlockables that you can get in Hero Mode, but their so few and far between, your just basically recoloring cannon characters.

Score: 3.0

Total score: 4.62

So far, not too terribly please with my $60 non-refundable gamestop purchase, but I'll push on to finish said game to see if there is anything really redeemable.
If not, then it's back to Tenkaichi 3, while I cry myself to sleep that DBZ online wont leave Japan/Korea.

So far as I've seen, Ultimate Tenkaichi is the -worst- in the series. It just has the best graphics, and a buttload of outfits to pick from in your custom hero mode.

Tenkaichi 3 was the best, in terms of controls, over 200 characters, and flexability on your character play style.

Ah. Well, as far as I could find out (in my whole whopping 3 seconds of effort); it appears to be a legit website that people use.

Another site that has rediculously low prices is mcbub.com

If you feel it's too good, then don't do it. Otherwise, more power to you, and give it a shot.

I'm rather impressed by what I'm looking at, but the tool assisted part really... erks me.

I ended up watching an MMX4 TAS, and all you see is Zero running around, rapid slashing his first slash about 30 times a second. Far as I can tell, TAS breaks the game code to make things easier.

Watching the video up top, it made it apparent that he broke the cool down of X's regular shot.

I'd like to see him do this without breaking the game code.
