Noctis~Final Fantasy Versus XIII

The latest instalment of the Final Fantasy series, date of release TBA in 2010, for PS3. What can i say..... great graphics, excellent gameplay, realistic cinematics. Adding to those, is of course, the newest main protagonist in FF, Noctis Lucis Caelum; a king sworn to defend the last Crystal of the world from the greed of mankind. Revolving around the theme of modern technology vs. the ancient power, the game blends in spells, magics + weapons as imagined in a modernised world. Thus, giving FF fans visual effects that has nv been incorporated in the series before..

Akatsuki vs. Organization XIII

Featuring in today's post is 2 cool organizations from 2 different anime/game:
-Akatsuki from Naruto, and Organization XIII from the Kingdom Hearts series-
with each of their members possessing extraordinary skills and techniques. In other words, their powers are symbols or representations of who they are.

Which organization wud u prefer?... that's up to u =)
Let's look at the Akatsuki's members first ^^


Akatsuki is a criminal organization of S-class missing-nin(a ninja who has left his/her village, often because he/she has committed criminal acts) and is the most wanted group in all of shinobi world. Their main goal is to collect all of the tailed beast for their plan of world domination.

Akatsuki at any given time is composed of no more than ten primary members, all of whom were S-Class criminals of their own respective villages.

The following are the members, typical when referring to Akatsuki although some of them are dead or replaced with when following the course of the series. Also stated are some of their special attributes or signature techniques, jutsu.
(From left to right)
1. Pain ~ Rinnegan; Six Paths of Pain
2. Konan ~ Dance of The Shikigami; Origami(paper) manipulation
3. Kakuzu ~ Five hearts w/ Five elemental affinities; 'Earth Grudge Fear'
4. Hidan ~ Immortality; Jashin Ritual & Curse Technique: Death Controlling Possessed Blood
5. Zetsu ~ Mayfly; Body Splitting Technique; Spore Technique
6. Sasori ~ Human Puppets; Red Secret Technique: Performance of a Hundred Puppets
7. Deidara ~ Clay Manipulation(Bombs/Mines): C0,C1,C2,C3,C4
8. Kisame ~ Samehada(signature weapon); Water Prison Shark Dance Technique
9. Itachi Uchiha ~ Mangekyō Sharingan; Ephemeral; Amaterasu; Susanoo; Tsukuyomi
10. Madara Uchiha ~ "Eternal" Mangekyō Sharingan; Teleportation

Organization xiii, today's 2nd and last assemblage, "rival to the Akatsuki in this post", is a group of 13 powerful Nobodies who seek to reclaim their hearts and become whole again. They are the antagonists of Kingdom Hearts: Chain Of Memories and Kingdom Hearts II. They have rankings, with Xemnas as the highest and the leader.

Because (almost) all the members are Nobodies, they lack hearts, meaning they also have no emotions. The Organization yearns to discover the secrets of the heart and fill the empty void inside themselves by gathering hearts to form Kingdom Hearts so they can become full beings again.

The following are the names together with their infamous titles and elemental attributes.
(From left to right)
1. Vexen, The Chilly Academic ~ Ice and a shield
2. Xigbar, The Whirlwind Lancer ~ Wind and six lances
3. Marluxia, The Graceful Assassin ~ Flower and a scythe
4. Luxord, The Gambler of Fate ~ Time and cards
5. Larxene, The Savage Nymph ~ Lightning and eight knives
6. Saïx, The Luna Diviner ~ Moon and a claymore
7. Xemnas, The Superior of The In-Between ~ Nothingness and Ethereal Blades
8. Zexion, The Cloaked Schemer ~ Illusions and a lexicon
9. Demyx, The Melodious Nocturne ~ Water and a sitar
10. Lexaeus, The Silent Hero ~ Earth and an axe sword
11. Xigbar, The Freeshooter ~ Space and arrow guns
12. Axel, The Flurry of Dancing Flames ~ Fire and twin chakram
* The 13th and new 14th member being Roxas and Xion(Upper mid section of the picture)

What Will You Fight For.......

Another great game, one that i think i will never have since i do not have a PSP T.T
It is a combination of the heroes & villains from Final Fantasy 1~10, where they were brought together by 2 gods to fight a war of good and evil. It is very cool, like Street Fighters except it is in full 3D. Final Fantasy Fans will surely fall in love with this game since it is the first one where the main character and baddie from each Final Fantasy meet together. I only know one of my friends who have tried out this game: Jamie Jeremy JIMMY. I am so envious.........

Here's the opening scene and a short gameplay of Sephiroth(FF7) vs. Kuja(FF9):

STARCRAFT II, The Sequel To The Legendary Game, Starcraft

Wootz! This is gonna be my favourite game when it is released ^^. But they keep delaying the release. It was supposed to be this year, but then it ended up in 2010 and they still havent confirmed the specific date =.= I hope it's worth the waiting. The graphics are pretty cool as well as the story plot, with aliens, monsters, robots and humans. The 3 main units are Terrans(mainly humans), Protoss(alien-like), and of course, my favourite, Zerg(monsters). Controlling massive armies to slaughter the enemies is what i like the best...... I just hope i can get my hands on this game.

This is one of the trailers of this awesome game:

(My favourite unit: The Zergs)
