The february to come

Well, last day of the month. Tommorow will mark the beginning of february.

Its like just yesterday I was watching the new year programme on TV..how time really flys. Anyway february will be packed with sheer goodness. Release of dante's inferno and of course the highly anticipated chinese new year!

Kind of became a lazy ass so I didnt find any work..thus no income. So this chinese new year will be a great blow to me! Considering to get demon souls, bayonetta and dark siders, weeeeee!!!

Well today was another pointless post, but better than nothing. Enjoy the last day of january.

Peace.


In all her sexiness and epicness, today we have isolde from mana khemia:student alliance as the main guest for greatest boss fights. Well I havent been doing this for.. like I dunno, 3 months? Well Isolde is a teacher from mana khemia who just has a grudge against our main character vayne in the game, for reasons so obvious I wont spoil the story. Anyway she one tough boss though not the toughest in the game she is the most enjoyable boss fight in the game. You have to fight her twice and both times the battles are sweet and satisfactory. They are no doubt my favourite 2 fights in the game.

As I said you have to fight her 2 seperate times, both in the later chapters of the game.
Both times she is hard, of course the 2nd time is tougher than the 1st. Isolde is just a teacher, how can she fight? Well obviously she has her own mana and her own ways of self defense. Once the battle starts one will take heed of the AWESOME soundtrack playing during the fight. Nerfiti, the great song playing during the entire battle, will really get ur game on. I googled the entire mana khemia OST just for this piece!

Well on to her fighting style, gay stuff. She attacks solely based on using her mana. With attacks like choke, nail blow, calamity....she is one tough chick. She has got a ton of hp on both fights, so the ongoing music will really stay in your head.
b
On the second fight things are alot more hectic. With increased damage and HP, along with a new pile bunker attack that really turns things ugly.....the fight is really good and intense.
b
Overall an incredibly fun fight, suiting for an incredibly fun game. Here is my score opinion.

difficulty:8/10

wolfteam-wolf conquest mode

Today I will be continuing on the wolfteam project.

Anyway today's topic of discussion is about wolf conquest. Its a mode in wolfteam that involes wolves fighting against humans with a objective of taking 5 bases. Anway in wolf conquest there are 5 bases on the map, to end the match, one team has to take 5 bases, either that or the team with the more bases at the end of the match wins.

Well heres the gist of it, humans(red team) have insane base capturing speed. Standing next to a neutral base will make it thiers in about 2-3 seconds. Thats about 5 seconds to totally de-capture a blue team base and make it thiers.

Wolves(blue team) have slow capturing speed. Taking about double of human timing to take a base.But of course in return they have increased speed and the ability to 2( or in some cases 1) hit KO humans.





Well here are some tips and advice.

- For wolf users, use ghost/ghost 2 to sneak into enemy territory for backstabs at the start of the match. Since ghosts are fast, they can sneak in without being noticed. In paien lab and power plant watch out for turrets if one intends to use this tactic.

-For human users, always have at least one human maning the turret behind, ghosts always try to backstab, this counters it all. Also good for killing gurdians.

-For human users, always have a launcher in the ready, many noob wolf users like to use wolves with low hp,such as smart, ghost/ghost 2,ice wolf, pyscho wolf. One blast will be able to do away with these jokers.

-For human users, NEVER use a sniper in wolf conquest, besides gurdian, basic/power and berserker, you will most likely not be hitting anything most of the time.

-For wolf users, getting pissed off after being killed by a turret? when you respawn, use the berserker wolf, hold right click and let go after the flame charges. The explosion blast will most problably be powerful enough to blast the turret user to oblivion. This can be used to create an opening to attack for your mates too. A note to those who want to use this tactic, multiple berserker wolves are needed if there are multiple turrets, so take note.

-For human users, shotguns are your friend, use them as wolves will be coming up to your face all the time. Click away at thier faces.

-For human users, pyscho wolves are screwups that ruin your day. Do take note that if you get hit by one of thier pyshic balls you are screwed. They do however tend to miss, when you see one fly past you, be alert as theres one crazy pyscho out to get you. Just dodge left or right to avoid the balls, though its hard as they are very fast, practice makes perfect.

-For wolf users. There is abolutely no use for ice wolf in a wolf conqeust match. Besides geying the fk out of your enemies by tossing wanabe ice balls, you die pretty quickly. Refrain from using them too much. They can however be used as openings for your team mates to move in for kills but its still not recommended.

-For human users. Here are a list of whats good to play for maps. Power plant, bridge and paien lab. When choosing for rooms, look out for these, as theres are high chance of winning(unless of course your team sux).

-For wolf users, always take note that spamming of gurdian is a really really cheap tactic for winning. But when losing badly, dont hesitate to use it, just be prepared to be called a noob.

-For wolf users, backstabbing isnt a crime, but many people will insult you for it. Ignore them and go ahead, since going up front most of the time will end up with you winding up dead. This applies to humans too, do not hesitate to backstab.

-For BOTH human and wolf users, let me get this clarified. Humans should stick together, just in case someone gets killed the rest can shoot the killer. They can also cover each other. Wolves should stay away,since most wolves manage fine alone. 2 ghosts camping in the same spot is just plain awkward and stupid.

-For human users, when you finish a clip of ammo and start reloading, dont jus stand there! You will die before you reload completely! Take out your pistol and fire at your enemy, he will most likely die soon, cause if a wolf doesnt die after 20-30 ammo of constant firing something is wrong.(unless of course its a gurdian)

-For human users, I have said this before and I will say it again, DO NOT KNIFE A WOLF.

Okay thats it. Wow thats alot of crap I just said. Oh well peace.



Opening songs-OP 1:howling, OP 2:kakusei heroism~the hero without a name~

genre:action,sci-fi

episodes:25

YESSS. Im happy to mean that this show has ended for me. Cause the ending was solid good. A great show darker than black is, introduced to me by my cousins, I was in doubt to watch this show cause it looked lame, but man I was a fool to believe that.
Yes thats right this show was great in terms of action, storyline and many others. It even has a second season which I am watching now!
b
Good opening songs for this show. 1st song howling by abingdon boys school, not too bad, its great to listen to, but you can get bored if you listen to it everyday. The 2nd opening is great! I listen to it everyday and still find it awesome. Hard core rock is the way to go man.
b
Plot:9.0/10
b
Okay darker than black has a solid stone great plot. It talks about a world where certain humans known as "contractors" exist. They are co-existing among humans, since they look just like normal humans, but contractors dont have a heart. Contractors are humans with special powers, thus they are named "killing machines".
The story of the show quickly catches on and becomes addictive. Every episode has action, mystery and a whole load of interesting conversaations so the show quickly becomes interesting.
b
Darker than black is seriousness all the way, with expection of maybe a few episodes which are obviously put there for comedy content. There are hardly any moments where things get really funny. The main character is a cool guy who always acts nice and friendly at the beginning of the episode, but at the end of it he reveals his true side, which is deadly enough to be dubbed as the "grim reaper". Really really good stuff.
b
Overall a great show. One of the best I have seen, deserves the very score I gave it. Currently watching season 2, and so far its pretty good too. I recommend this show to those looking for a serious storyline.
b
Peace.

Woot, finally. This concludes the tekken 6 fest. Getting kinda bored and half-assed doing tekken 6 reviews and ONLY tekken 6 reviews. Well Im glad this is the last one. Tekken 6 for the 4th gens have been on shelves for quite a while now, and yes this is the PS3 review. Personally I find the 4th gens' tekken 6 the best among them all, well time to get on with it.


b

Tekken's story is kind of hard to catch up to. Since there are after all 6 games(actually 7 including tekken tag). I have been following up since tekken 3, till today's tekken 6. Well tekken 6's story, like and other tekken game, revlolves seperately among each and every of the 40 characters. Each has thier own story and part to play in the game. Well in this newest installment of the game we have the 2 main protoganists lars and alisa, our stars in the brand new scenerio campaign. Apparently lars is in a rebel group against mishama zaibatsu,which is waging war around the world. He later discovers alisa and they both go around trying to stop mishima zaibatu's chaotic spread, or something like that. Tekken hasnt been really that story driven anyway, I dont really pay attention, but thats the gist of the storyline.

b

n
Tekken 6 has great graphics and animation, better than that of street fighter 4 and soul calibur 4. They look even better than the arcade machine models. With such great graphics and special effects, such as cracking the floor when a character falls down, the red burst of energy when a character goes rage mode, its all detailed and very nice on the TV screen. The characters too, thier body strucure and muscle details and stuff look refined and very well speculated. As expected of the 4th gen consoles.

As for the game basics you have a few gameplay options. Arcade mode, which you fight through 8 battles. Ghost battle, where you fight loads and loads of enemies without taking a break. Survival, you once again fight loads and loads of enemies but this time with only 1 life bar. Time attack, a very obvious mode that I shouldnt explain as its in almost EVERY fighter today. And of course we have the new scenario campaign. Scenario campaign is just like the previous tekkens' tekken force, but more story driven, as it revolves around only 2 main characters lars and alisa. This is kinda like the game's story mode and its quite fun actually. You get to play thorugh over 30 stages of pure simple brawling, each stage with thier own boss. This mode itself can take up to 4 or 5 hours of gameplay, this extends the play value of the game itself. Also each stage you play drops items that can be equipped to your fighter for customization purposed. More on that now.
b

b
Since tekken 5, customization has beomce quite and issue. Now in tekken 6, customization is deep as ever. Customization in tekken is just to make your fighters look good in the way you want them to. Customization grants no bonus attack,defense or sutff like that. You buy these items through using fight money, obtained either by fighting enemies or by clearing a stage in scenerio campaign. Fight money comes in little by little in fighting, so saving up cash can be quite a pain. In scenerio campaign however money flows in quite quickly. This makes playing scenerio campaign is must sometimes for players who want quick and easy money. Items are not only bought, they can also be dropped my enemies in scenario campaign. Items dropped this way though grant special boosts in scenerio campaign, such as freezing effect and such, but they dont appear like that in normal fights. Customisation items as I said before do not affect normal fights.
b


Overall tekken 6 is a much more improved game than all of its predussecors, with flaws such as long and frequent loading times and over the top LAG during online play, they prevent tekken 6 from being a soooo much better game. Well the game alone now is already great, so I suggest fighting game lovers to get this. However if one is looking for online play, tekken 6 is just not the game for you.

Happy gaming.
