Who’s That Poke-Bus!?

Pikachu-Year-Of-The-Bus-2014-London-Image-01
How do you get a Pikachu on a bus?

It’s 2014 and guess what? Yep, you got it! It’s the year of the bus according to the reigning government of London and it is about time you all start getting excited for what was once a booming public transport option. It seems like, in recent years, citizens of London have been choosing to avoid taking the bus and instead decided to use other modes of both public and private transport, well what better way than to pique the interest of former bus-goers than by throwing our old friend Pikachu into the equation? Pop culture fixes all!

Yes, you heard it correctly, Transport London alongside the London Transport Museum have begun organizing certain bus-related events to both celebrate the transportation marvel and to once again bring it to a level of popularity it deserves. A huge Pikachu will appear on certain buses around London for the duration of the celebration period to excite bus patrons so if you’re a citizen of the great city I beg that you take more bus rides as part of your daily routine to hopefully get a chance to snap a picture with the larger-than-life mascot. If you do come into contact with this non pocket-sized pocket monster, please let us know about it in the comments section below!

Academy Award Winning 12 Years a Slave on Home Media June 4

12-Years-a-Slave-Still-01

The incredible true story of Solomon Northup (Chiwetel Ejiofor), a free black man who is abducted and sold into slavery, is coming to Blu-ray, DVD and Digital on June 4, courtesy of Icon Home Entertainment.

Having won a staggering 135 awards from its 271 overall nominations, 12 Years a Slave clearly deserves all of the praise it has received, being called “a modern classic” by The Guardian and referenced as ‘not simply a masterpiece, but a milestone’ by The Telegraph.

12-Years-a-Slave-BD-Packshot-0112-Years-a-Slave-DVD-Packshot-01

Based on the memoirs of Solomon Northup, the work of acclaimed director Steve McQueen (Shame, Hunger), starring Chiwetel Ejiofor and Michael Fassbender amongst many more talented actors, is powerful in its raw portrayal of a innocent man who faced cruelty of the most degrading fashion, staying alive and retaining his dignity with hopes of reuniting with his wife and children.

Look for the 2014 Academy Awards ‘Best Picture’ on store shelves and digitally from June 4. Keep an eye on Capsule Computers as we review the release closer to the date.

Atelier-Shallie-Alchemists-of-the-Dusk-Sea-screenshot-01

Earlier today Gust held an Atelier Shallie: Alchemists of the Dusk Sea preview event on NicoNico and while the event may have been fifty five minutes long, a lot of it was fluff and nothing substantial. However a viewer did manage to snip out three pieces of actual gameplay footage that were shown off the for the first time in the game. If you want to watch the whole thing you can do so here.

These pieces of footage show off our introduction to Shallotte, our introduction to Shallistera, and a bit of field gameplay though no actual combat footage was shown. You can check out the footage below and keep in mind the game is still in development as Tecmo Koei is planning on releasing the title on June 26th in Japan.

Call of Duty®: Ghosts Devastation DLC Pack Coming to PlayStation and Windows PC Players Friday, May 9, 2014

Call of Duty®: Ghosts Devastation DLC Pack Coming to PlayStation and Windows PC Players Friday, May 9, 2014 

Call of Duty: Ghosts DLC Season Pass Owners Can Use Devastation’s All-New Ripper 2-in-1 Weapon Immediately

Call of Duty®: Ghosts players on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3 and Windows PC will have access to Devastation, the game’s second of four massive DLC Packs planned for this year, on May 9, 2014. Devastation delivers four small-to-medium sized multiplayer maps, the all-new tactical 2-in-1 “Ripper” SMG/Assault Rifle, and “Episode 2: Mayday” – the next chapter in Extinction’s four-part episodic narrative. Devastation is available a la carte for a suggested retail price of $19.95, or as part of the discounted* Call of Duty: Ghosts DLC Season Pass**.

Devastation’s new multiplayer maps include:

–          Ruins: A multi-level Mayan temple with verticality suited for long-range weapons and underground pathways perfect for close-quarters showdowns. Skilled players that find and complete the map’s unique Field Order will have the ability to become one of Hollywood’s most formidable action film stars and the galaxy’s ultimate hunter, the deadly Predator. As the Predator, players will brandish its dual wrist blades and shoulder-mounted plasma cannon, as well as be able to utilize the creature’s keen hunting abilities to track down enemy players.

–          Collision: The mangled remains of a cargo ship that’s crashed into a New York City bridge. The map’s tight corridors – made-up of burnt-out vehicles and demolished shipping containers – create a space perfect for run-and-gun players.

–          Behemoth: Players battle atop a massive excavation platform in South America with long sight lines ideal for long-range weapons, while the confined interiors of the platform’s control rooms make for intense SMG and Shotgun encounters.

–          Unearthed: A reimagined version of the fan-favorite map “Dome” from Call of Duty®: Modern Warfare® 3. “Unearthed” is full of new secrets and Cryptid artifacts for players to discover in this compact, versatile map, great for all play types.

Additionally, Call of Duty: Ghosts Devastation brings fans the next chapter in the ongoing episodic Extinction story with “Episode 2: Mayday.” In the aftermath of the events at the Nightfall Program facility in the Alaskan wilderness, the Quick Reaction Force boards a mysteriously abandoned Chinese research vessel adrift in the South Pacific Ocean. Armed with multiple, mod-able versions of the Venom-X weapons that harness the power of Cryptid technology, players will pursue Captain Archer in an attempt to uncover what’s become of Dr. Cross, all while battling against a new Cryptid enemy called the “Seeder,” and culminating with players facing-off against a massive, 400-foot tall Cryptid beast from the deep – the “Kraken.”

Finally, Devastation arms players with the all-new tactical 2-in-1 “Ripper,” a hybrid SMG/Assault Rifle. The “Ripper” is the perfect complement to Devastation‘s new multiplayer maps, providing two different configurations – medium to short-range capability as an SMG, and medium to long-range as an Assault Rifle. Additionally, Call of Duty: Ghosts DLC Season Pass holders get instant access to the “Ripper” weapon and can use it in all Call of Duty: Ghosts multiplayer maps now.

Call of Duty: Ghosts game sold separately and is required to play the Devastation DLC Pack.

Legal Stuff:

*Based on Season Pass suggested retail price of $64.95 and four DLC Packs at a suggested retail price of $19.95 each. 

**Content in the DLC Season Pass may be sold separately.  If you purchase the DLC Season Pass, do not also purchase these standalone DLC Packs, as you will be charged for them.  DLC Season Pass and DLC Packs may not be available on all platforms or in all territories.  Pricing and release dates may vary by platform.
