Kenshin DX

[COLOR=SlateGray]Black Cat 5 just hit shelves and it was great.Now all of the major villians have been introduced. And i was glad to see Number I of the organzation. Creed and his men kick *** and will make suitable oppents for Train to face off aganist. My only complanit with this issue was there was to much filler with the imposter situation. It was just annoying and didnt really advance the quick devloping plot featured in the issue. So far Black Cat is turning out great.[/COLOR]

[QUOTE=Generic NPC #3] It's not bad. Considering it's the only US released Japanese RPG on the system it doesn't have much competition... and I'm certain Lost Odyssey, Blue Dragon and Eternal Sonata (which are all getting US releases) will beat the hell out of it. For now I do think it's adequate.[/QUOTE] [COLOR=SlateGray]Yes the games you mentioned will most definetly beat the hell out of this game. Enchanted Arms maybe a standard game but I really enjoyed. Of course its not high caliber like newly releasewd games like FFXII but its not a bad game at all. If Enchnated Arms does anything right its the sceneray which looks almost as good as Oblvion(of course its not vast ) its very linear but the sights are absoultely amazing to look at. One thing to all people who reach the end of the game do not and I repeat do not [spoiler] kill Toya[/spoiler] you will miss the true ending and a ton of achievment points.[/COLOR]

[quote name='Jubei Yagyou']This game really looks like it has a lot of potential. Although the single player graphics and storyline doesn't look too entertaining I think the gameplay itself will make up for that, I hope. On a side note, this game can be played on the ps3 right? Or will they come out with a ps3 version?[/quote] [COLOR=SlateGray] There will most likely never be a PS3 version of PSU and the PS3 will play all PS2 games. So I dont think theres anything to worry about.[/COLOR]

You're in luck there happens to be a Star OCean anime. Called Star Ocean EX check the link below for more info on it. [url]http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/anime.php?id=796[/url]

Gantz is one of my all time favorite animes. Ill gladly join in.

[QUOTE=r2vq][color=#007520]I haven't played much Star Fox before I got the DS version, and I wasn't very impressed with the story. It seemed very shallow at best. I don't think I'd like to see an anime version of this [b]because[/b] of the story, even if the dog fight scenes would be amazing. Though, if they changed the story, I would probably watch. xD -r2[/color][/QUOTE] [COLOR=SlateGray] Animes based on games tend to never follow the story of the game. If Gungrave followed the storyline of the game it would be a piece of crap since the games story was horrible.The anime however was amazing. Same with Star Ocean they carry the same name of the game but they would change the story. Besides the story to Star Fox 64 wasnt bad at all.[/COLOR]

[quote name='BKstyles][font=tahoma']I'm very interested in picking the game up, i've played a couple of the past games but not really religiously. This game seems to have quite the customization system though, which alone could probably convince me to play the game. My greatest concern about the game however is if the single-player mode won't be as accomodating as the online play, since more than likely i'll be playing it offline. Though i suppose if i ever decided to get what is required to play online, i would play it along with MGS3: Sub...assuming I won't have a PS3 anytime soon.[/font][/quote] [COLOR=SlateGray]Allright heres the thing offline is no where near as fun as online. Because the stroy isnt that impressive, voice acting is horrible, and your character is premade. If only you could create your own character in offline mode. Onlines fun with friends or you can just solo with a charcter of your creation. The only thing is that like most MMOs theres an online fee of $10 a month if only all MMOs were like Guild Wars. So the online is fun but you have to pay and offline is Meh... So offline maybe. If you can get past the fact you have no say in your characters creation. Online if you can afford it then yes by all means get it.[/COLOR]

[QUOTE=Generic NPC #3]I noticed that in the PSU Beta on 360 and was wondering if I was just crazy. I had the original PSO on Dreamcast and it seemed to really care about your timing for combos. In this one, I could just mash the attack button and it didn't seem to matter. It was a slight disappointment. I was under the impression that PC, PS2 and 360 users all could play together. Is that wrong?[/QUOTE] [COLOR=SlateGray]Yes I was also dissapointed with the lack of timing in between attacks. Now its just too hack and slash. As for your question PS2 and PC users can play toghether on the same server but Xbox 360 users cannot. So if your planning on getting it for 360 you will not be able to play with PC or PS2 users. [/COLOR]

[COLOR=SlateGray]I just picked up PSU for the 360 and am on chapter 6 at the moment. While it is a solid game Im a bit dissapointed with it. The battle system no longer requries timing and it gets very repitive just like PSO did. The offline mode isnt great either. Instead of using your online character you must use a stupid kid named Ethan which annoys the hell out of me. Also the servers have been undergoing maintence so its been hard to get online. Im still enjoyig it but im dissapointed I expected alot more from PSU. I do like the new style of animation(very anime like) and the story isnt horrible. Offline just seems like a waste if you can't use your online character and it doesnt give you that mercenary feel PSO did. I still recomend it to fans of episodes one and two but its not a HUGE improvement over the last Phantasy Star game. Also if anyone has the 360 version and wants to play my GT is Kenshin XS so send me a friend invite.[/COLOR]

[COLOR=DarkRed]Trinity Blood has really slowed down. Its actually getting quite boring . They are introducing new charcters such as Sword Dancer who was awesome.But really havent progressed the story at all. After last night episode we will be getting our first multiparter which I hope lives up to the first episode and Sword Dancer episodes in terms of action. Im still waiting for all hell to break loose.[/COLOR]

[COLOR=SlateGray]Id like to add a couple more additions... Black Cat- Great manga. Horrible anime. I hate how the story focues more on Sven then it does on Train. Why do they feel the need to stray so far from the excellent source material? Gundam Wing- The storyline was great but it tended to get a little overdramatic at times. Id love to see it redone with better animation less emo crap and a better conclusion. I HATED Endless Waltz. There was hardly any action it was just wasted material. Berserk- Make a second season allready. Peace Maker Kurogane- while it was enjoyable the fight scenes were few and far between I would have like to see more combat in place of comedy.[/COLOR]

As of right now No and probaly never will be.

[quote name='BHK']Do any of you have any ideas of who the main person in Resident Evil 5 is going to be?[/quote] [COLOR=SlateGray]It hasnt been confirmed but it looks to be Chris Redfield from RE1 and Code Veronica[/COLOR]

[COLOR=SlateGray]To start this is not the ANIME THAT NEEDS A CONTINUATION THREAD. This thread is for anime you feel should be redone ,redited, or revised. Lately Ive thought wow what a crap ending or WTF is with this part? So here are some of my mentions. Rurouni Kenshin- Lets pretend the anime 3rd season and the OVA never happend and animate the Jinchuu arch instead. It staryed way to far from the manga and gave a craptastic final 30 episodes. Samurai Deeper Kyo- pretty much Id change the whole damn thing. It was horrble and seeing how the manga was so good its a disgrace. Gantz-possibly the worst ending in an anime. It made no sense it was completly rushed and incomplete. They also should have included more of the manga such as the [spoiler] dinosaur and vampire missions[/spoiler] they were also missing characters in the anime as well Get Backers- Id change the ending to where the LE arch left off it was more conclusive then the one they gave you.Id also put in the blood , sexual content , and profanity the manga provided instead of watching the watered down version One Piece- Everything about One Piece should be changed the voices, violence ,and finally the God awful music.[/COLOR]

Those that kill themselves are cowards. It takes courage to keep on living. Ive wanted to die many times in my life but your're not only hurting yourself but yout loved ones as well .Its an incredibly selfish thing to do. This idiot now killed someone in the process. Not only does it affect her selfish soul but the victims family as well. I have no sympathy for the girl but the person she killed.

[quote name='John']What's with the unusual level of automated phishing/spam threads popping up lately? Have there always been this many and I've just not noticed (or they've been deleted faster)? Or has Des finally sold us out for an advance copy of Twilight Princess?[/quote] Bro theres always been alot of spam threads. Ive seen like "whos yur farite chircter" threads"all over. I don't think its gotten worse and I think the mods are doing a good job in cleaing up and helping out. If anything OB has gotten better than it has been just go to the OB anthology. There will alwyas be spam threads but I dont think its gotten worse. If anything better.

I have a question regarding virus protection. My Norton just expried and im wondering if theres a free or better service I can use or if i should just renewNorton. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I just recently picked up Gunslinger Girl and finshed the first volume. Its very slow paced but its still really good. You feel alot of sympthay for the girls and can almost feel their inner sadness and confusion. The action is well done all the guns are acurate and very detailed looking. Very good animation and the plot feels fresh. Its a very dark series but so far im enjoying Ill post mpre about as I progress through the series.

I can't belive people are still watching this garbage :rolleyes: . At first I loved pokemon the original collection of the 8 badges was enjoyable and it was great to see new pokemon introduced. I wish it had stayed at 150 pokemon now theres so many i cant even count. I knew the series was going downhill was after the first movie which was God awful(Mewtoo vs Mew). Now all the episodes are the same how many times are they going to beat team rocket? Truth is pokemon was enjoyable when i was younger and id like to see the earlier ones again. But now the show is utter repetive crap. It should have ended 100 epsodes ago.

[quote name='Lost Lightbulb']See how you like this set. I have the uncompressed files so if you want to have something changed, let me know. ;)[/quote] Thank you so much Lost the set looks great. I appreciate it a lot :animesmil

[quote name='James']I believe they made a sequel on N64 but I haven't played it. It looked like some kind of platformer with RPG elements (much like Goemon 5 itself), but it was a kind of 2.5D game I think...has anyone played that one? I'm not sure if it's worth looking into at all.[/font][/quote] I mentioned this game in my previous post. Truth is you should avoid it.it is a confined game and is a platformer more than an adventure game. WHile it does offer two player coop its extremely diffcult to do the jumping with two players on screen. Its not horrible but it doesnt have the great feeling Mystical Ninja gives you. its not a worthy sequel in the least. Not a horrible game but I wouldnt dish out alot of money on it.And if you do get it don't expect any of the greatness Mystical Ninja had.

Well I have no idea where the Hellsing OVA thread went so Ill post it here. The Hellsing OVA will be released in December and will retail at $18 US. It however only contains 1 episode running 50 minutes long. Which isnt that bad of a deal. Im looking foward to this one.

[QUOTE=James][font=arial]Yep. It was one of my favorite third party games on N64. It had certain elements that weren't great, but overall I think it was a very unique and enjoyable game. I need to go and find out where it is, actually. I think it's still at my parents' house somewhere...hopefully it hasn't been lost. :animesigh [/font][/QUOTE] Ah yes Mystical Ninja for N64 great game. It was like one big mystery game where you'd have to gatehr info to move on . It had great enviroments. Its hard to put your finger on what was so good about the game maybe it was the great looking charcters designs or the giant fighting robot mssions? But it was damn fun scaling mount fuji ,riding on top of a out of control dragon, going into space, and transforming your charcter at will. I loved that game. The anime was horrible as well as the sequel however. How do you take a great 3-D enviroment and turn it into a 2-D side scrolling platformer :animesigh ? I wish the other games made it the states. Nevertheless its one of my favorite N64 games it was quirky for sure but it was a hell of a lot of fun.

[quote name='James']In terms of other retro classics, I wonder if Mystical Ninja (Goemon 5) could be included here. I know a few of you are familiar with that game - who else has played it and what are some of your fond memories?[/font][/quote] Are you refering to the N64 game?

I hate to ask for another banner request so soon but due to the upcoming events of the Hellsing OVA Id greatly appreciate a Hellsing banner and avatar.
