How do you pronounce this title? No-een? No-ine? Well apparently it's no-ay-een...
....moving on! I discovered this anime after finding a leaflet in my Naurto DVD advertising it. I was still new to the world of anime so figured if it's promoted with Naruto then it's worth a shot! After all I only chose Naruto because it contained ninjas...yeah...
This is crazy. Matropolis is now 1 years old! Wow! I can't believe it's been a year since I began this blog. Happy birthday Matropolis! Have a good one :)
It was when I was in Magic Kingdom, Orlando, last year that I decided to create my own blog. I was watching the 'Celebrate A Dream Come True' parade and as all of my Disney childhood memories passed by in floods I started thinking of those good old days. My first friends, cartoons, video games. I thought to myself that I could write a book on it. Then a few seconds later I had decided...I'm going to create my own blog!
Do you remember your first time with Miss Croft? I do! I was over a friend's who had recently picked up a copy of Tomb Raider 2 for PC and he said I'd love it and I did.
This was a game like none I'd ever seen and you just had to love those blocky graphics! We all know the story of Lara and the Tomb Raider series (the clue is in the title) and I'm guessing most of us are fans of at least one of her adventures.
Have you ever had your mail delivered by a witch? No, me neither. However, this is the plot for this animated film from Studio Ghibli back in 1989.
Kiki is a thirteen year old girl who leaves her home to train as a witch along with her faithful black cat Jiji. Instead of taking a train, bus or plane she uses her broomstick to fly across the world. How easier would that be? Personally I can't see myself doing it mind.
The theme music is playing in my head now as I write this. I love that music and this was a classic! I first saw Jurassic Park in the cinema with my parents when I was a kid and thought it was great!
In fact I am now literally listening to the soundtrack! Thanks Spotify!
So yeah everyone knows what this film is about- dinosaurs! Basically scientists find a way to breed dinosaurs and plan to open a park for tourists to visit. Dr. Alan Grant and Dr. Ellie Sattler take a small group to visit the park to make sure it's safe and of course find out it isn't quite so easy to contain dinosaurs especially the T-Rex! Queue much screaming, running and being devoured on the toilet! Did anyone else find that scene amusing? Anyhow these unlucky individuals attempt to escape the island.
If you had super powers would you save the world or destroy it? This is the choice you have to make from this video game released back in 2009 for the PS3.
The character you play is Cole MacGraph, who becomes caught in an explosion that grants him with electricity based powers.
So the explosion has destroyed a lot of the city and peace needs to be restored but it's up to you how you do it. Do you become it's saviour or conqueror? Tough choices eh? Certain missions offer you a path to choose- good or evil? Each path grants you with additional powers that you can upgrade along the way with experience points.
