Movie Review: Ratatouille

Ratatouille

 

The primary purpose of reviews are to provide the audience/consumer with an educated and critical opinion of the item in question. Seeing as how this is the case, I may not seem to be doing my job effectively. This is because I have absolutely nothing negative to say about this spectacular movie.

New Smash Bros. Updates

Tuesday, July 3rd, 2007

The Smash Bros. site has had some interesting recent updates. The first one was the announcement of another new item, the assist trophies. These trophies resemble the collectible ones from Super Smash Bros. Melee, except that they are used in-battle as a sort of Pokeball for random Nintendo characters, as opposed to Pokemon. The first two characters to be featured randomly from within the assist trophies are Samurai Goro (pictured below) and the Nintendog that could be seen within the original trailer for SSBB. Today’s update features the rockin’ new visage for Bowser. Click on the pics below to be taken to their corresponding posts on the Smash Bros. website.

F-Zero X
 
Here’s the update straight from Nintendo:

F-Zero® X (Nintendo® 64, 1-4 players, Rated E for Everyone, 1,000 Wii Points): Choose from 30 different hover-car racers, including updated versions of the Blue Falcon and other vehicles from the original F-Zero, and get ready to play one of the fastest racers ever. You’ll speed to the finish line on tracks that twist and turn through the air, doing your best to avoid the other 29 cars on the track. If you’re in a competitive mood, try to win a Grand Prix Cup, get the fastest lap time in a Time Trial or destroy the competition in a Death Race. You can also challenge three friends in the Versus mode. With five separate play modes, hidden vehicles and courses, and an excellent soundtrack, F-Zero X still represents one of the best racing titles to date.

Street Fighter® II Turbo: Hyper Fighting (Super NES®, 1-2 players, Rated T for Teen ?Violence, 800 Wii Points): Street Fighter II defined gaming in the 1990s by revolutionizing the fighting-game genre. Regarded as one of the greatest games of all time, Street Fighter II’ Turbo: Hyper Fighting was the third and final release in the original series. Featuring the eight original World Warriors (including Ryu, Chun Li and Guile) along with playable boss characters (Balrog, Sagat and M. Bison), this classic title offered enhanced playing speed and improved character balancing.

China Warrior (TurboGrafx16, 1 player, Rated E10+ for Everyone 10 and Older ?Violence, 600 Wii Points): China Warrior is a side-scrolling action game that was released around the same time as the TurboGrafx16 in Japan. It’s up to the kung fu master Wang to defeat the Dark Emperor, who stands atop the kung fu world in China. Punch, kick and jump-kick enemies along the path that lies between you and the three bosses of each stage. Skillfully fight your way through all four stages, and be sure not to miss recovery items while dodging enemy attacks. China Warrior boasts character size and detail that rivaled all other games at the time of its release. Exciting one-on-one fights against the game’s realistic bosses will make you feel like you’re in the middle of a kung fu movie.
