Celebrate Captain America’s 75th Anniversary And America With Marvel Games

Marvel Games is a genius division of the Marvel World.These mobile games are rather fun and have a wide variety of characters. As usual with the Fourth of July coming they decided to introduce a new wave of characters to the game. What better way to celebrate America than with our all American boy Captain America?

First of all we have Peggy Carter as Captain America in Marvel Puzzle Quest. Peggy Carter’s show may have ended but she is as popular as ever. She looks majestic as the Captain and it looks like she will play similarly to Steve Rogers.

Next up we have a future Captain America in Avengers Alliance 2. I like this design as while it looks futuristic it is rather simple.

Next we have Sharon Carter the daughter of Peggy Carter and our Captain Steve Rogers if he never was frozen. Sharon Carter trained by both has become Captain America for her world.  Her lance looks like it is an awesome weapon and I bet she will be one of the cooler characters in Marvel Future Fight.

We have another Captain America costume in Conquest of Champions. Another simple Captain with a cool shield.

A Knight version of Captain America for Avengers Alliance. I love that they can really do whatever they want with these characters. As a knight it looks like Cap is even cooler!

Lastly Captain America takes on an older version for Avengers Academy. This is also a simple costume as it is based on his initial design. He is ready for war and he may need it at the Marvel Avengers Academy!

This really does look like a fun group of heroes and it is always just a little astounding to see how many versions of heroes there actually are. So have a patriotic 4th of July and celebrate it with one of my favorite heroes Captain America!

New Pokemon For ‘Pokemon Sun And Moon’ Revealed

poke

Pokemon Sun and Moon is coming  November 18th 2016. Today they revealed new Pokemon as they usually do. Slow bursts of new Pokemon to raise the hype for the game. I for one am excited by these new Pokemon. I love building my team especially before the game comes out.

It might be sappy but I really connect with my team. By the end of the game these critters are my friends! So without further do here are the new Pokemon!

Charjabug the evolved form of Grubbin who was revealed at E3 is Bug Electric. Looks rather boxy compared to its grub shaped first stage

Vikavolt is the evolved form of Charjabug and retains the same type. He looks rather formidable and isn’t held back by a flying type weakness. He really is one of the cooler Pokemon in this generation thus far!

Drampa appears to be some form of aged dragon and is of the Normal Dragon type. I honestly have no idea what they could  do with this. But he could be majestic at the end.

Bruxish is a Water/Psychic fish and in the eyes of many is a monstrosity. It does look like a bad Picasso Pokemon which is rather humorous.

Cutiefly is a cute little Bug Fairy type Pokemon. Looks like something that would perch on you or somwhere nearby and just be adorable.

Togedamaru is the usual Pikachu clone, but he is Electric/Steel type. He is rather round and appears to be similar to a Porcupine. Could he evolve, or will he just stay cute?

Tapu Koko is the first island’s savior legendary. An Electric Fairy type who watches over the island and makes it safe. He fits the Polynesian warrior idea of Hawaii and looks rather formidable.

Now that these Pokemon have been revealed have any caught your eye? Have you seen something you hate? Tweet me @Starkwyrngamer with your thoughts!

 

Blue Exorcist Gets A Second Season!

Blue Exorcist getting a second season is amazing news! A thrilling story of 2 brothers who are the sons of Satan and their journey to become Exorcists.

The main character Rin, wants nothing more but to be the Head Exorcist like his adoptive father.

I think this is perfect for newbies and Anime Fans alike. The characters are great and the realism of faith fuses well with the world. Honestly I don’t have any leanings in that area but I enjoy learning and I feel like I have a learned a bit from watching this show.

Plus how can you not like a son of Satan working to take down Satan and his demons.

I cannot wait for 2017 when I can watch the second season of this amazing show. Plus if you haven’t been watching you can watch the first season Dubbed or Subbed. Whatever works for you is gold.

I always find that if I have to do other things I watch Dubbed and if I can just watch I watch Subbed.

Really though if it looks at all interesting give it a shot!

Wayward Pines SN2 EP6 – ‘City Upon A Hill’

waywardpines

The Abbies are coming, they have lit the crops of the Wayward citizens ablaze. The episode begins with the female Abbies foraging and being mothers. Showing off a somewhat human world where these creatures live as they gawk at a helicopter. In an instant they are slaughtered like animals with rounds of bullets.

As they bring away a fallen comrade Pilcher steps out in preparation of the fence’s build.

It jumps to Carrie and Jason, the leader and his wife to laying in bed. He’s ready to have a child, a child so they can lead the youth by example.

Theo sits at a bar with his hand in ice, he wants to get drunk. Rebecca comes into talk about Xander as a siren blares. The citizens run  as the Abbies come forth. They scream as they set the crops ablaze, looks like they aren’t afraid of fire anymore.

An Abbie attacks Theresa as Adam blows its brains out. Hopefully Theresa doesn’t die, though she might be all for it. The Abbies in town freak out in their cages except for the lady Margaret.

Carrie comes for Theo because they need him at the hospital. Xander asks Rebecca to get guns because she knows where they are. Jason leads a task force to slaughter the Abbies. I actually respected him in that moment.

Theo jumps into action taking control of the situation. The task force continues their assault. A war on two fronts but the crops still burn. Jason falls to his knees as we return to the hospital. Quite the gory scene as we see what is going on behind the healing scenes. Theresa is heading towards death, Theo wants to save her. Really something to behold watching the realness of it all.

Jason is upset by his lack of planning, he is upset that Pilcher didn’t calculate for everything. Carrie talks sense into him because she never wants to see him weak. Which makes sense as she is the leader’s lady.

Rebecca can’t answer Theo when he asks about her feelings for Xander. There is meeting of the leaders and they discuss the Abbies. The Abbies were taught to use fire, and they lit the corners so it would catch fire faster. Replanting will take months, and so everyone could starve in six weeks.

There is a rather poignant funeral with a burial of 35 of the last citizens of the world with only a little over 1000 left. Some soldiers come to take Xander’s weapons even though he used them to save the day.  He is shot down by the solider and his knowledge of his past.

The medication is about to run out and Pilcher didn’t make anything to create more. Jason has no idea what he is doing and Theo does. Theo should definitely take charge as he clearly is superior to the young child in charge.

Theresa is barely alive and it hurts Adam, he did betray her and her husband. A flashback with Adam and the horrid teacher Megan occurs, Adam helped send Ethan to the future so he could have Theresa. But he changes his mind as he does have character.

Rebecca comes into shame Xander but he  is doing well. He insinuates that he will be returning to their home soon as he has changed. He is a creep in my opinion as Rebecca and Theo belong together.

Adam sits by Theresa’s bed side because he loves her and is sorry for his lack of help. She wakes up and pulls her hand away, thinking back to Ben blowing out his birthday candles she dies. No main character from Season 1 lives now, how sad.

Margaret is put through a CT Scanner as Theo enters the room. Margaret has double the intellectual centers as humans. Theo and Adam talk as he bandages him. He tells him about Margaret and Adam is freaked out. Looks like the brand on her hand is significant.

The Abbies come out in full force as the citizens walk outside. Again Margaret just watches, never blinking, clearly she is strong. She is actually the leader of the Abbies!

Looks like things are really escalating, “Time will Tell”, will share with us more truths. Cannot wait for Episode 7! As usual feel free to tweet me @Starkwyvrngamer

 

 

 

It Is Time For Fox Characters To Fight In An Animation Throwdown!

image

One of my old favorite blocks is coming back as a game. Get ready for Animation Throwdown a game combining some of the funniest shows into one epic card game.

In a similar vein to the Hearthstone series it is up to you to create a deck. A deck stuffed to the gills with characters from shows like Klaus from American Dad to Louise Belcher of Bob’s Burgers. With characters from all of Fox’s shows such as Futurama, Family Guy and King of the Hill, expect zaniness on a whole nother level.

At this moment we don’t have much information but that’s okay. From this image at least we know so many hilarious characters will be duking it out shortly. All we know for sure is that this game will be appearing in Q3 of this year.

I look forward to learning more and I hope you do to! As usual feel free to tweet me @Starkwyvrngamer!

Anime To Watch:Kiznaiver

image

Kiznaiver is a relatively new anime that just aired it’s final episode. This show tells the story of 8 people and one fateful summer.

However these people are rather special. In a world where it is possible to link pain between people there 7 are linked in that way.

What occurs because of this is a brilliantly powerful story of how people live with each other. As the bond strengthens and they become closer they start feeling every type of pain among them.

While it simply starts as physical pain soon they are feeling emotional pain as well. Everything has an effect. Love hurts and this show really shows off how love between friends can really hurt. You may not even try to fall for a friend, it’s just because of your closeness.

I suggest that anyone who enjoys a deep story watches this. I employ you to think first though as it is rather visceral. These characters are forced into insane circumstances with these horrendous locks on them.

If you like stories where people are thrust into a seemingly unexplainable and vicious circumstance this is for you. Now really this anime won’t be for everyone but that is fine. Anime is for everyone willing to expand themselves. The opening music is superb and it lulls you into a false sense of security.

All in all this anime is worth watching but I’ll leave it up to you. I will attempt a full review sooner than later. Tweet me @Starkwyvrngamer as per usual!

My Hero Academia Gets A Second Season (And Why It’s Great For Anime newbies)

http://vignette2.wikia.nocookie.net/bokunoheroacademia/images/b/bb/Quirks_slider.png/revision/latest/scale-to-width-down/670?cb=20150526211336

One of the best new anime out there is My Hero Academia. It was recently announced that this stellar anime is getting a second season. Now, I really do think that this Anime deserves all of the praise that it gets. It is just a wonderful anime with humorous characters and a wonderful story of a boy becoming a man.

Our young hero is training to become a superhero.  He goes to an academy in a world where  nearly everyone has a super power. At first this young boy is powerless but that is all about to change when he meets his greatest hero.

Now, I won’t tell you how he gets these powers or how he meets his idol but I will say it is awesome. Deku is on his way to becoming a great hero due to his endless spirit. To have such high hopes when for so long you’ve been put down is incredible. I truly think that this anime is going to be one of the best.

I think that honestly, this is a great show for anime newbies to watch. If you are a fan of action shows and superheros it is for you. I think that because of its high superhero aura, it would be a perfect transition for someone who has yet to see any anime. While it is definitely an anime it has enough Americanized Superheroics that it works as an intro show.

I remember growing up, watching Justice League, and that was one of my first real action shows. Soon I found Anime but I digress. If you are a fan of superheroes absolutely give this a shot.

The cool thing is that since this is a new show, there are only thirteen episodes. Now, in the future I will be telling you about my favorites which have upwards of 500 episodes. Starting with a short anime like this could be amazing. Plus it is subbed in English and already Dubbed so you can watch it however you like.

I will be posting a season one review soon so look forward to that! As always tweet me @Starkwyvrngamer.

The Zero Dawn Is On The Horizon With Horizon Zero Dawn!

horizon-770x417.png

Horizon Zero Dawn is a fantastic new game from Guerilla Games and is a Playstation Exclusive to boot! This game may not be coming out for six months but from what they showed at E3 it is already worth the wait!

The plot revolves around an ancient group of people living in a world that once had advanced technology. It is a story where the world was taken over by machines and now these beasts have evolved. They resemble dinosaurs and it is up to Aloy our fiery red haired protagonist to take the canisters on their back.

images

What these canisters mean for her tribe isn’t yet known but people are already racking their brains to figure it out. Aloy uses many different types of projectiles that she gathers from her foes. As a hunter she has learned how to trap them and that also comes into play in the game.

Really this game is an robot apocalyptic caveman game and that is all kinds of cool. Also it just looks beautiful. I love seeing lush open world games, they really show how far we have come in the visual department. It is shocking how real we can make games now.

This game also hinges on Aloy finding out who she is. She was raised in a village but she was from someplace else. She has to find out who she is on this journey and stories like that tend to be good.

I am excited for February 28th, 2017 and to see what this game really has to offer.

The Nintendo 64 Is Twenty today!

This article in its entirety makes me feel old, I will start with that. I may only be almost 24 but still something so integral to my being on its 20th birthday is sure to elicit some emotion.

While I don’t remember all the specifics I’ll start with this. 20 years ago I was almost 4 years old. I would play Super Mario land 2: The 6 golden coins. That  game was my first introduction to games and no matter how bad I was I spent a lot of time trying to beat it.

But suddenly the N64 appears. A bright and explosively cool piece of technology. In a world where in 360 days I’d have a sister I was ecstatic. I had no idea I’d have a sister but playing games in full 3d was the best.

So many classic games would come out in the next few years and I would enjoy a good deal of them. So  while I didn’t start out with the NES I started with a Gameboy and was thrust soon into a world that would engulf me.

This system was my first introduction into the world of 3d gaming and I am excited that it is as old as it is. I would have come out a lot different I am sure if I hadn’t been able to play such a system.

Even though technology continues to change and advance it is always good to look back on the past. With Nintendo it is always easy to do so especially when it has been a part of your life for so long. As I look back I look forward as the NX is on the horizon.

So, Happy 20th N64! You may not play as well as you once did but you will forever be in the hearts of anyone that was able to play you.  I’ll always look back fondly on playing such a marvelous system and thank Nintendo for making it!

 

Fire Emblem+Idols+Shin Megami Tensei=Tokyo Mirage Sessions!

Tokyo Mirage Sessions #FE is a new game that was announce a good time ago. It is actually releasing tomorrow in the US and Europe!

This game follows the story of Itsuki and his friends. Itsuki is new to the world of performing but he is willing to do anything to be there for his friends. As he meets new people he knows he will be able to help them.

This story is different than any other Fire Emblem or Shin Megami Tensei game. As a combination of both it becomes something new. Plus a sprinkling of idol life changes the formula even more.

I do enjoy Japanese culture which flows through this game. JPop is also center stage as these characters literally sing songs even during battles.I wasn’t sure what to expect with the music but these songs are really good. From what I have heard since I don’t want to spoil the plot I was enjoying what I’ve heard.

This game oozes beauty. The dungeons look amazing and the visuals look beautiful. I am stoked to see this world as it really is like you are walking through Japan. Plus it is inevitably a good time filler as we wait for Persona 5 another Atlus game mind you.

Now from what I have seen so far it looks like an amazing RPG. With great call backs to Fire Emblem it is sure to be something special. The reviews are also rolling in and they are spectacular! I am really ready to jump into this game and sink hours of my life in making my characters the best they can be.

I’ll put up my own review once I’ve played the game, so look forward to that! If this sounds cool at all check out the trailer.
