I was really surprised at how much I loved Gurren Lagann when I saw it a couple years ago. It has a lot of elements that I really don't like in anime, but I think it all works because of the extremely fast pace the show runs at.

Lucretia4341d ago

the show was good until episode 6. then the show just went to WTF mode and completely sucked.

I love ridiculous stuff but robots that are so big they throw galaxies at each other as weapons? doesn't make ANY sense, wasnt cool or anything. the gravity from the robot should have killed everyone onboard.

it was just stupid.

Tres214340d ago

yea i been tryin 2 get my friends 2 check it out since i watched it personally i wit Megaton on this 1 i loved it...i even teared up a lil i aint sayin i cried lik a punk but...ok i cried lik a punk.lol

TheLyonKing4341d ago

That will be a nice boost to my 360, not been getting a whole lot of use atm but with this I will be watching a lot of stuff.

Speaking on manga when the hell is funimation going to renew the contraxt for one piece and get recording, I can't read subbed cause it distracts me.

Lucretia4341d ago

i hate subs too, but now thats all i mostly watch. if i didnt then i would miss great shows like fate/zero, black rock shooter and carnival phantasm.

since bandai,geneon, adv all stopped doing anime or just closed all we are left with is funimation and Sentai works, and sentai works has porn quality dubs so thats out of the question.

it sucks, all those companies crashed and burned because they over charged. Funimation and sentai are the only ones to get the prices right by releasing the whole series for a good price instead of 6-8 dvds for a 24 episode show -_-

WHO THE HELL DO YOU THINK I AM!!!!

blackstrr4114341d ago

Watching manga in english freaks me out. The voice actors are terrible. I can't imagine someone shouting "Gomu Gomu nooo" in english hahahah thatl be like "Rubber Rubber". I hope there's gonna be english subtitles

GraveLord4341d ago

If you start watching it in english, you'll never go back.

BTW, "Gomu Gomu" in english is "Gum Gum".

It's A Crime That There's No Sleeping Dogs 2 Yet

Huzaifah from eXputer: "Sleeping Dogs from the early 2010s is one of the best open-world games out there but in dire need of a resurgence."

LG_Fox_Brazil3d ago

I agree, I consider the first one a cult classic already

isarai3d ago

You say "yet" as if it's even possible anymore. United Front Games is gone, along with anyone that made this game what it is

CrimsonWing693d ago

That’s what happens when games sell poorly. And I’ve seen people wonder why people cry when a game sells badly… this is your answer.

solideagle3d ago

Majority of the time it's true but if a company/publisher is big (in terms of money), they can take a hit or 2. e.g. I am not worried about Rebirth sales as Square will make Remake 3 anyway but if FF 17 doesn't sell then Square might need to look for alternative. <-- my humble opinion

Abnor_Mal3d ago

Doesn’t Microsoft own the IP now since they acquired Activision?

DaReapa3d ago

No. Square Enix owns the IP.

Abnor_Mal2d ago

Oh okay, Activision owned True Crime, but when that didn’t sell as intended it was canceled. Six months later Square Enix bought the rights and changed the title to Sleeping Dogs.*

*As per Wikipedia

Sleeping Dogs was a sleeper hit back then. It was fantastic. It actually still is. Would love a sequel to this, or at least a revive of True Crime series.

Lord of the Rings: Battle for Middle-earth II - PC Wore it Better

Lord of the Rings: Battle for Middle-earth II was an intriguing and unique RTS title, that sadly suffered in its console port.

dadavis19923d ago

Was just thinking about this game and wishing I had a way to revisit it. The way EA scrubs these titles from existence once their licensing runs out is horrid.

Michiel19893d ago

there is a client made by modders and it also works online.

kevco333d ago

Indeed. The game can still be played online on PC.

Xbox 360 players, though? Bang outta luck.
