So I caught TRON on Blu-ray and wow PRETTY *drool*. Looks so damn awesome!
I for one never watched the old TRON, that was a bit before my time and looking back at it today xD
How about no, though I guess the story might be nice but the visuals...
Personally I loved the music and sound effects in this, was so epic and perfect and seeing daft punk play put a smile on my face =) nice.
TRON: Legacy didn't really have that good of a story. Was rather predictable which was a bit of a let down.
Problem now is I want to TRON everything. Saw some shirts on-line that look like the clothes they wore in TRON, best part of these shirts, they also glow in the dark. How awesome is that?! Thinking about it I'm not so sure I want to walk down the road at night and stand out like that =p
Radical man =p

Pokemon Black
So I recently acquired pokemon black, after having played pokemon Gold(2010) for almost 100 hours I have to say I was really really looking forward to black.
So when you open up the case you are greeted with your cartridge and a leaflet explaining how to obtain Victini(some mythical pokemon) from Nintendo WFC.
PS. the WFC event for Victini is just running till 22 April 2011
All pretty cool and awesome so far, so I start up the game, Right off the bat you notice that the character draw distance is further away and seems like the outline is thinner than before, which if you ask me takes the characters to a whole new level of ugly.
Text now comes in the from large text bubble at the top or bottom of the screen and every now and then right between the action.
When you travel into town / buildings there are all kinds of neat bells and whistles that have been added, one of the new changes building wise is that the pokemart and pokecenter are now in the same building which is a nice touch. But still I dislike the angle at which you view the pokecenter.
My largest gripe with the pokemon black is how the battle screen has changed, pokemon now stand out more and have depth and move a bit, even though that movement comes in a 2 or 3 second loop. What I found disappointing was how the Graham looked, now I know some people are all well its not about the graphics and the ds has never been a graphical power house but really, those pixels look they they belong in minecraft =p
One thing I do think they did do right was to make the battles a tiny bit faster or maybe I am just imagining things =p
Now for the pokemon, they seem to be a rip off, off generation 1 and 2 pokemon with slightly different looks and some just entirely ugly and useless coupled with pretty silly names for the most part. Though I guess the names are pretty descriptive, "roggenrola" no prizes here for guessing this pokemon.
A few things that I did find puzzling were that in gold and silver it was possible to have one pokemon out and about and follow you, this feature has been removed. No apricorns to make pokeballs from, i know it was gimmicky but thought it was a nice touch. gave me a nice supply of free pokeballs =p and then
Ultimately I think black and white takes 1 step forward and 2 steps back. But that's just my opinion...
