Anime Lineup for Summer 2010

The line-up for next seasons Anime has been released much to the joy of many people but depression of others. Of course some people may have been thinking that their favorite Anime has finally made a come back for the Summer to only be met with disappointment. However some top named Anime are arriving onto the scene for the first time such as High School of the Dead and Shi Ki. Then we have the sequels for both Sekirei and Strike Witches are also airing. Strike Witches is a bit surprising as it only finished airing last Summer and most Anime usually have a turn around of at least a year and a half before a sequel. Barring Queen’s Blade and Shin Koihime Musou of course.

Stay tuned through the next week as I introduce the various shows below and let you know if I’ll be following them or not. These shows are starting sometime in June and July though the exact date is not yet known for any of the shows.

Sure Alien Breed was always planned as a trilogy. Sure everyone new the second one was soon to come. Sure it isn’t much of a news post, but I felt you guys should know all about the stuff you probably already know.

The ESRB has posted a listing for Alien Breed 2: Assault, which pretty much makes it official. So if you had any worries that the next installment of the game would fall through the cracks, let your worries be dismissed. Now it just becomes a waiting game.

Xenoblade – 6 minutes trailer for this Wii-exclusive RPG

Xenoblade looks like it’s going to be a huge Wii title to look forward to.

The game is an rpg, and it’s world takes place on the top of two giant gods, Kyoshin and Kishin, that stopped moving during a ancient battle.

Present day, some machines have started attacking different villages and our heroes needs to stop them with the help of Monado, a mysterious weapon which can be controlled only by specific users.

Xenoblade is being developed by Monolith Soft, who is really famous for the genre, working previosly on respectable series like Baten Kaitos and Xenosaga. The director behind Xenoblade is Tetsuya Takahashi (Xenogears, Xenosaga), and the composers are Yoko Shimomura (Kingdom Hearts, Parasite Eve) and Yasunori Mitsuda (Chrono Trigger/Cross, Xenogears). Mitsuda will be doing the theme song for Xenoblade, while Shimomura will be the main composer together with Monolith’s crew. There’s a really respectable team behind this project.

Xenoblade is expected for June 10 in Japan, while those looking for an english version will probably need to wait until E3 2010, in July.

Below you can check a long, and pretty detailed, 6 minutes trailer. This trailer shows some cutscenes, battles, exploration, customization, and a lot more!

After June 07, the beta will go offline in preparation of the servers for the full game, which launchs July 27th.

But there will be a new beta for a couple of weeks prior to the game’s launch, so everyone who’s participating in the beta will be able to play a little more before the game’s release.

$5 gaming magazines through June 5th (US Only)

At the moment Amazon.com is offering the below magazines for only $5 each for a one year subcription. There is even an option to extend your current subscription for only $5 if you are already subscribed. Unfortunately this promotion is only available in the United States, and will run until June 5th. I think that the Xbox Magazine is a really good deal considering it also includes the demo disc which occasionally comes with additional content such as themes or awards. Never hurts to get something for a lot less than normal.

Treyarch commited to working on Call Of Duty 100%

Ok news for all you Call Of Duty fans out there .. it’s now official !!  Treyarch the developers that have worked on the alternate Call Of Duty series alongside infinity ward are now dedicated 100 % to the Call of Duty studio/franchise.  They will do “NOTHING” else apart from working on the Call Of Duty franchise.  Previously they had worked on such titles like James Bond Quantum of Solace, and a few Spider Man games.  But from now on it’s only going to be Call Of Duty. 

This could be a good thing as they can now dedicate all of their resources and energy to making the Call of Duty franchise even greater than what it already is.

CVG published the following quote from the developer
 
 

 

“Treyarch is a 100 per cent Call of Duty studio – and it has been for a long time now, long before any of [the Infinity Ward] events occurred,” Lamia told CVG.”We focused all of our efforts on creating the best Call of Duty game we possibly can and what that meant is not working on anything else. We are a multiple team studio and focusing on Call of Duty and Call of Duty gameplay meant focusing all of our teams on that.”        

Now what’s everyone think of this ?  Do you think this is going to produce a far better game or will it make no difference to the end product ?  Ohh and don’t forget .. we also have EA’s KING OF KING’s FPS being released very soon “MEDAL OF HONOR”  Maybe once that’s out the Call Of Duty series might just become a distant memory
