To those who never heard or seen this movie or forgot about this movie; Here's the trailer for the first movie:
If you never saw the movie, go watch it. And if you saw the movie, watch it again. It's been 10 years since the first movie came out. Now, are you ready for this:
Trailer:
Can't frickin' wait for the sequel because it's been too long. So, did anybody drool? I did. |

| Wow! Already? |

So, who's ready for round two of Street Fighter 4?
I know I'm ready for a new SF4. BUT... I'm not sure if I want to pay for a full price for only 3 additional fighters. The new character, Juri, looks bad-ass. It's tempting just because of her, but no. Maybe if they add more characters like Cody, Alex, Guy, Adon, Karin, etc, etc. Then I'll be willing to buy it. |

| What is up with Disney? |
[Sep. 27th, 2009|01:39 am] |
First of all, Disney bought Marvel. I was surprised, but it'll be good for Marvel. This mean that Marvel will get exposed internationally with no problem. Man, I'm just waiting for the moment that Mickey Mouse is the one that will bring Captain America back. Or how about the Punisher meets Goofy? And you think the Punisher meets Archie is ridiculous. *guffaw*
Second - There are rumors that Disney might pick up the third season of the popular cartoon: Spectacular Spider-Man. Not only that, they'll bring out more Marvel cartoons along of extending Wolverine and the X-Men for more seasons.
Third - This came a surprise to me, but Disney acquired Naruto Shippuden and it will air on Disney XD this fall. I stopped following Naruto once the fillers began. I'm a bit shocked that Naruto Shippuden is airing on Disney XD and not on Cartoon Network. So what the hell happened to Cartoon Network? It's stupid that they changed to CN and that they're showing more live shows. I'm hoping the rumors that they'll drop cartoons (namely, Venture Bros) aren't true. |

| NHL 2010 |
[Sep. 14th, 2009|10:50 pm] |
Wow! Just read some early reviews and this game exceeded my expectations and even more. I learned a few features that will make me or anybody who loves hockey to be excited about.
1 - Crowd will be amazing. For example: During the playoffs, the fans will carry across the entire series with fans remembering what occurred in early games and respond accordingly. Just say if a player from the other team scored the winning goal or if the other player beat up the home team player, they'll boo him throughout the series. This is what I call crowd authenticity and getting into the game.
2 - Be A GM. You get to be a GM for a team.
3 - Trade AI rewritten from ground up. Another word: No more of the computer AI trading elite players for 4th-line players. In fact, there are 5 types of modes for each team throughout the season. Each team in the beginning of the season will start out one of these five modes:
(1) Rebuilders - These teams wants to rebuild the franchise by using younger players, focusing draft picks, and not trading or signing old veterans.
(2) Playoff Hopefuls - Will take risk and sign some veterans. But will try to focus on younger players.
(3) Playoff Bubble - Maybe they will trade and/or sign veterans, but will decide as the season goes by.
(4) Playoff Contender - Will try to trade/sign players (more likely veterans) to help them win the Cup.
(5) Championship Contender - Likely will trade/sign top-tier players or probably won't trade/sign at all.
So here's another cool thing: Teams starting with Rebuilders can turn into Playoff Contenders, if they're playing well during the season. So, that's very awesome about it. It's just like in real life.
4 - Be a Player. This time you start from HS. Not sure if you play generic HS games (a la NCAA Football), but I know that you'll play in prospect games. During those span of games, you'll need to show your skills to determine if you're a high draft pick or not. Unlike last year where you choose your team (you can still do that this year's game) and start from the minor; this year, you'll be playing 4 NHL games before the coach decides if you're ready for the big leagues or you still need to work on your skills.
5 - They fixed the coaching problems! Last year's coaching in the Be a Player was horrid. It's like you're scoring goals in every game and then all of a sudden, you're being sent from 1st line to 4th line. So that was really stupid and it didn't make any sense. So I'm glad that they fixed that problem.
6 - Fantasy Draft is back.
So yeah, I'm so stoked about this game. Just a few more hours before I get to buy this game. |

I finally got to play Batman Arkham Asylum. I was right! This game is awesome. Thanks for the early B-Day gift, Lady. You're the best! Anyways, this is one of the best comic book game, ever. Very well done. There are a few minor problems, but other that, it's one of the best game this year. Wow, what a great way to start the Fall lineup.
In related news:
NHL 10 - I played the demo for NHL 10. Let me tell you: This is the best hockey game, EVER! And I'm not exaggerating. This game feels like you're actually on ice. The crowd is great (Although it should be more animated), the gameplay is great, the fundamentals of hockey plays are genuine, and the fighting is pretty awesome. Only a few more days until this baby comes out and time to get revenge on those black flightless birds. I'm very excited...
Wet - The demo is finally out. So far, the game looks great. Good style and funky music, but the game feels like it's a combination of Stranglehold, Tomb Raider, and the movie: Kill Bill. I'm not saying all of those are bad, but I think this game will get repetitive and will be boring later on. I could be wrong, but we shall see. Right now, I'll probably say: hold it off of buying until the review comes out; Or maybe when the game drops in price.
Marvel Alliance 2 - At first, I didn't care much of buying this game. But as I look more of the game graphics and read more about the gameplay: I want to get this game. How cool is it to change the outcome of the Civil War? It's simply amazing.
Halo ODST - No demo, no Jimmy's first impression. I mean the graphics looks great, but look what happened to Darkest of Days: The graphics looks good and the story premise sounds cool (changing the war outcome). But, the game sucks... BADLY. Or look at Halo Wars. It looks great, but the game was mediocre.
Next stop: October games, where Rogue Warrior, Silent Hill: Shattered Memories (Wii), Uncharted 2, Splinter Cell: Conviction (rumors that it still coming out in October, but I doubt it), and Forza 3 comes out. |

| Batman Arkham Asylum |
[Aug. 23rd, 2009|03:51 pm] |
Joe and to all Batman fans (not to mentioned: Comic Book fans): We can rejoice!!!
Early reviews for the upcoming game, Batman Arkham Asylum, were great. Game Informer gave the game a 9.5 and IGN gave it a 9.3 with all postive things about this game. *See link below for IGN review* I guess I'm glad that they delayed the game.
http://ps3.ign.com/articles/101/1016585p1.html
Anyhoo, all of them said this game is a true Batman game: Dark and gritty. The henchmen showing fear when Batman takes them out one by one. Batman beating down his enemies with his Keysi, BJJ, and various MMA styles. Using "those wonderful toys" to takedown the henchmen. Fighting one of the best rogues in comics (From A-list to C-List villains). Man, this IS a true Batman game. Now, I'm hoping that you get to ride the Batmobile.
I can't wait for this game to come out this week... well, I won't be able to play the game until Lady comes up, since she has the game. Patience is a virtue. It'll be well worth the wait. I'm so excited. What a great way to start the Fall lineup *See previous LJ post about 2009 video games Fall lineups for more details* |

| Otakon... noooooo |
[Jul. 12th, 2009|04:04 pm] |

NOOOOOOOOOOOOO! My ankle is acting up again! This time it's my left ankle. WTF!? This is like what happened last year where I ended up in the ER and I couldn't walk for two weeks. So, I woke up this morning with a sore-pain on my left ankle, but as the day went by, it's starting to get more painful and sore. Is this starting to become like an annual tradition or something like that. Well, I hate this tradition. I'm hoping it gets better before Otakon. Grrrrr. |

| Transformers 2 Review |
[Jun. 24th, 2009|04:06 am] |
I'm tired, so I'm going to make this brief. This movie rocks! It's great, just not awesomely great. Better than the first movie, IMO. The story is not complicated, so I'm not sure what the critics were talking about. I guess you have to be a hardcore fan of Transformers to enjoy this movie, so F those critics! Also, screw those people who claims to like Transformers but don't enjoy the movie because the characters/vehicles are different from the cartoon show. GET OVER IT!!!
Anyways, there were lots of action, lots of explosion, and lots of Optimus and Bumblebee kicking ass! Unfortunately, they have to put some human emotion in this movie, but other than that it was a fun ride.
I'll probably elaborate more once I get some sleep.
Tranies-For-Life! |

Few more hours until Transformers 2. I read some critic reviews and was disappointed. But I don't care. From a Transformers fan, I'll give my own review after I finish watching the movie. |

| Transformers midnight showing |
[Jun. 19th, 2009|03:20 am] |
|
Who wants to go for the midnight showing with me? The movie will start on Tuesday night, if I'm not mistaken. So I saw some more clips from the movie and man, this movie looked way better than the first movie. Sideswipe is so freaking awesome with his swords/blades. Why can't he be this cool in the cartoon? Or why can't Jazz be like this in the first movie? Anyways, who's with me? Anybody? |

| Transformers 2 updates |
[Jun. 11th, 2009|11:19 pm] |

Just two more weeks until the movie comes out! Who's excited? Anyways, I have seen some cool clips and let me tell you: This movie rocks! If you think Optimus Prime kicks ass during the battle against Bonecrusher from the first movie, wait until he battles against the Decepticons in the sequel during the forest scene. This shows you why he's the best Autobot, ever! Not to mentioned, Bumblebee kicking ass against Rampage. From what I read at the premiere for the movie, there will be more high-intense robot battle, less human involvement, and some Transformers will die. They're mum about who's going to die, but I still think it'll be Optimus, a few Decepticons, Mudflap, and Jazz (you do get to see him, again). I think I forgot to mentioned this: but I believe Sideways is working for Unicron, because Sideways is the herald for Unicron (You can watch Transformers: Energon/Cybertron, for the reference). Also, I still believe Sideways is Barricade. |

So I watched various clips of the movie and it looks great. Still not sure how they made this movie into PG-13 and not R. But I guess the MPAA changed their rules. So, anybody in Toledo or people in-town wants to check out this movie on the midnight showing, which is tomorrow night? I want to go but I don't want to go by myslef. |
|
|
| Guess What? Transformers time! |
[May. 19th, 2009|01:24 pm] |
Those were awesome! Seeing frickin' Devastator combining was awesome! Sideswipe (I assume) rollar-blading down the streets was cool. Insecticons (maybe Mini-cons) was pretty neat. Jetfire transforming was nice. Still not a fan of Mudflap/Skids. And I'm still wondering if those jets in the pyramid scene are the Seekers (they're supposed to make an appearance).
I need more trailers so I can see who else is in this movie. *Still hoping to see Springer* Only a little over a month till this movies comes. |

[May. 6th, 2009|01:23 am] |
Just finished watching the Wings game. Man, that was load of crap. OK, I understand that the Wings shot themselves in the foot in the first period along the half of the second period. But, Wings did make a come back as always. And they were robbed by the referees.
The refs in this game was load of shit, especially towards the end. Under a minute left, Detroit's Hossa scored a loose puck goal, but was waived off. The ref closest to the puck blew the whistle while the puck was loose! WTF! He blew it prematurely. The puck was loose on plain site and he blew the frickin' whistle! I wouldn't be surprised if the ref will be suspended or banned from officiating the playoffs. I mean, he should with that idiotic call. Yes, you can say he is human, but the puck was in PLAIN VIEW! Stevie Wonders could make out that play. Even the commentators from Anaheim said it was a lucky break. Just, WOW! I believe this is the same referee that called that ridiculous penalty on Stuart early in the game that ended up a goal for Anaheim. Stuart made a great check, but was called for Interference. But he had the frickin' puck when he got checked. Then why isn't Pronger's interference on Cleary and Datsyuk wasn't called? BS. The game would've been great if it weren't for the bad officiating.
Anyways, this ref, Brad Watson, should be suspended or banned from officiating in the playoffs. I'll betcha there will be an article about this bad officiating game tomorrow. Man, Wings will be pissed for Game 4. Even though they lost the game, but I believe the momentum has shifted to the Wings at the end of the game.

What's better than have another 80's cartoon making into a movie this year. So many awesome movies coming out this year.
Now, they just need to come out with The Real Ghostbusters 3 movie along with M.A.S.K., Silverhawks, Thundercats, Visionaries, He-Man (not the Dolph's version), Jayce and the Wheeled Warriors, and even Jem... |
