Street Fighter Art Collection [Games]

rotaku — Wed, 22 Jul 2009 05:02:12 +0000

I found this nice Street Fighter art… I will get one… Maybe

Oh, Who do you prefer? Chun Li or Mai… Mai for me!

From the biggest rivalries to the biggest…other rivalries, UDON leaves no facet of Street Fighter history untouched in SF20: The Art of Street Fighter, ” the most complete collection of Street Fighter artwork ever.”

SF20 features more than 1,500 illustrations from the franchise’s 22-year history, from the original Street Fighter arcade game to Tatsunoko VS. Capcom. Featured works include character designs, concept art, sketches, and box art, with “never-before seen” Street Fighter art for those of you who think you’ve seen it all. More than just an art book, SF20 also provides commentary from popular Capcom artists, discussing their favorite pieces and how their artwork helped forge the most popular fighting game franchise in the world.

SF20: The Art of Street Fighter is scheduled to hit stores in September. Amazon currently lists it with an October date, with a retail price tag of $39.99 discounted to $26.39, so if you’re interested, that might be the way to go. I’d say the Mai chesting facing-off against Chun-Li pic alone is worth the price of admission.

Final Fantasy buggy [Games]

I found this interesting video on kotaku. Actually you can beat a Final Fantasy Legend in 2 minutes… That’s impressive, obviously, with a little help of a bug.
Hmmm… I remember a bug on Pokemon Red and rare candy… hahaha was so cool

You’re a busy person, so this how-to on beating The Final Fantasy Legend for the original Game Boy in just under two minutes is perfect for your on-the-go role-playing game finishing lifestyle. Get ready to glitch!That’s because The Final Fantasy Legend—really the first entry in Square Enix’s SaGa series—is as glitchy as they come, allowing serious speed run fans the option of beating the game from start to finish in a matter of minutes, not dozens of hours. This tool assisted speed run takes advantage of character and item leveling bugs, as well as the ability to unintentionally warp and ride a motorcycle at super-motorcycle speeds.

The whole thing wraps up nicely when the player dispatches the game’s final boss, The Creator (aka God!), with a single hit. Must feel good.

Review: Castlevania Order of Ecclesia [Games]

rotaku — Wed, 01 Jul 2009 05:32:52 +0000

Plot:

Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia takes place after Castlevania: Symphony of the Night, sometime in the mid 1800s. As the Belmont Clan had vanished by that time, several organizations are created in order to research countermeasures against Dracula and his eventual return. Between these organizations, the most promising was the Order of Ecclesia”Dominus.” Shanoa is a member chosen by the order’s leader, Barlowe, as the human vessel for Dominus. Before the ritual is performed, the Dominus glyphs (Anger, Hatred, Agony) are stolen by Shanoa’s colleague Albus. She decides to retrieve them, unaware of his true intentions. who created a triad of magical glyphs based on Dracula’s power, named

In her pursuit, Shanoa arrives in the deserted Wygol Village and finds out that Albus kidnapped its inhabitants, brought them to different hidden locations, and imprisoned them. As Shanoa rescues them throughout the game, she learns that Albus captured them to perform some kind of experiment on them which involved draining samples of their blood. On two occasions, Shanoa manages to track down Albus, who willingly lets her retrieve one of the Dominus glyphs. When she finds him to be possessed by the power of the third glyph, she is forced to fight him. After killing Albus, his mind and soul are absorbed by Shanoa together with the last Dominus glyph. She learns that Albus’ true intentions were to find a way to defeat Dracula without Shanoa using Dominus, as he knew that it would cost her life if she used it. He also reveals that the reason he experimented on the villagers was because they were the last descendants of the Belmont Clan, and he erroneously believed their blood would have the power to help him control Dominus without it consuming him. As for her lost emotions and memories, he revealed that Barlowe used them to create the glyphs, a fact he hid from her.

Confronting Barlowe after learning the truth, Shanoa hears from him that his true objective was to bring Dracula back to life using her as a sacrifice. After Barlowe is defeated in a fight, he ends up offering his own life to revive Dracula. Shanoa sets out for Dracula’s castle to defeat him. Eventually confronting Dracula, she successfully defeats him using Dominus Union (Dominus Anger, Dominus Hatred, Dominus Agony), but seemingly at the cost of her own life. However, Albus appears and reveals that only a single soul has to be offered. He sacrifces his own soul in Shanoa’s place, but not before he asks her to smile for him. Dracula’s castle crumbles and Shanoa escapes.

I haven’t post anything about my Xbox. I bought my Xbox360 on April. A month before, I bought Star Ocean 4. I had no intention of buying an Xbox360, at least not yet. But this bundle was a nice deal and the rest is history.

Comes with:

Red console
120GB hard drive
Xbox 360 Headset
Standard Edition: Resident Evil 5
Red Wireless Controller
HDTV-ready component HD AV cable
HDMI cable
Ethernet cable
Token card including Super Street Fighter® ll Turbo HD Remix AND exclusive Resident Evil Premium Theme

I couldn’t download Super Street Fighter® ll Turbo HD Remix and the RS5 the, because this thing doesn’t comes with the network adapter and my router is in my room and my xbox in the living room.

Anyway… here I have a few pics. (Bad photos indeed).

Hmmm… The Xbox is a great machine, but the PS3 is better, I think.

My games? Only two. RE5 and Star Ocean 4.

What’s a bento?

Bentō (弁当 or べんとう ) is a single-portion takeout or home-packed meal common in Japanese cuisine. A traditional bento consists of rice, fish or meat, and one or more pickled or cooked vegetables as a side dish. Containers range from disposable mass produced to hand crafted lacquerware. Although bento is readily available in many places throughout Japan, including convenience stores, bento shops (弁当屋 ,bentō-ya), train stations, and department stores, it is still common for Japanese homemakers to spend considerable time and energy producing an appealing boxed lunch.

Bento can be very elaborately arranged. Contests are often held where homemakers can compete for the most aesthetically pleasing arrangements. The food is often decorated to look like people, animals, or characters and items such as flowers and plants. This style of elaborate bento is called kyaraben.
