Famitsu Review of Final Fantasy 13

Famitsu just came out with their review of Final Fantasy 13 and ended up giving it a 39/40. That is pretty good, but knowing Famitsu, it may just be a paid off review, as Haze got a 34/40.

Reviewer 1: 10/10 – Beautiful graphics and excellent story.

Reviewer 2: 9/10 – Combat damage visuals meant this reviewer had trouble seeing the display.

Reviewer 3: 10/10 – Many cinematic moments.

Reviewer 4: 10/10 – Beautiful visuals.

Thank you for the Translation, Google Translator, don’t know what I would do without you.

Tony Hawk Says Ride is Fun

Well, its no news that people thought that Tony Hawk Ride would fail, but its astonishing just how badly it failed. With a metacritic of 48, and with no steller game released in Hawk’s franchise since Underground, it may be time for Hawk to call it quits. Unfortunately for us, he defends his game saying:

“I know that (RIDE) is super fun, and I think there’s a misconception that I just stick my name on a game, I brought this idea to Activision, and I saw it through, I’ve been playing it every step of the way and I am very proud of it.” Well for the skateboarding craving ill just stick with EA’s Skate from now on. I know cause my character in Ride went through a building multiple times and couldn’t get out

Quantum Theory Going Multi-Plat!!

Yesterday Tecmo announced that it’s upcoming  third-person shooter Quantum Theory will be a multiplatform release. Until now, this was considered a ps3 exclusive, which could rival the XBox’s Gears of War. This is only the latest of a long list of former ps3 exclusives which have turned multiplat. A Few examples are GTA4, DMC4, and FF13. However, this game has not seemed like it would stand out so this news would have flied under the radar in the last generation. However, with this generations fanboys, the so called ‘XBots’ will be all over this. All that can be certain is that once it is released, both versions of the game will be examined to see which version is the best.

Its expected release date is Spring of 2010

A Few Graph Comics

well i was rejected by my school newspaper, so here you go and give me some feedback on how you like them. Sorry they are in black and white, the paper wanted them in that format

And you thought that the MAG Beta was big

Its called the Record of Agarest War, and its coming to your PSN store. This strategy RPG, was originally a retail game, but has recently been converted to a PSN download. The mag beta took up about 2 gigs, and that took me a long time to

download. But this game takes up *Drum Roll* 10 gigs.  “I asked around, and it looks like the final size is going to be somewhere around 8-10 gigs, It sounds like a lot, I know, but I’ve been downloading the debug ROMs at home to take

the load off our office internet, and they only take a few hours–I usually start them when I leave for work, and they’re done by lunch.” Said an official. Unfortunatly for me the 2.5 gig mag beta took me 15 hours to download, so by my math this will take me 60 hours to download.
