(update) Yoshiki from X Japan is in NYC.


Update: Yoshiki from X Japan was in the city today he was doing a press release at the Sirius XM HQ in Times Square tonight. It was mainly a meet and great for the press and we got to ask him some questions about what thinks of music here in America. We also found out that he is working on multiple new projects one that was just talked about today is the Hello Kitty theme he is producing. He was talking about finding a singer to sing the theme and he was hinting at asking lady gaga. It is still speculation but who knows maybe one day they will have a collaboration..



X Japan the Japanese group that has been together since the late 80's and is responsible for multiple anime and American cartoon themes along with multiple platinum albums. Is in NYC today they are going to be at the Sirius Satellite Radio HQ. X Japan is starting a radio show this summer with Sirius. I really dont know much about what the show will be about or when it will start but as soon as I know more I will post. The meeting starts tonight at 7 and runs till about 9pm again when I know more I will post.

I am now officially scared..




Everyone knows that Mark Hamill will be voicing the Joker for the last time in Batman: Arkham City. But today without any notice besides the news that just came in Arleen Sorkin will no longer be voicing Jokers sexy minx of a sidekick Harley Quinn. In her place it will be Tara Strong featured in the pic below. She has voiced alot and I mean alot of cartoons most note worthy in my opinion are Ilana from Sym-Bionic Titan, Bubbles from Powerpuff Girls, Rikku from Final Fantasy X, and Raven from Teen Titans..

I like you all am very disappointed with this news but good things have to come to an end and well we can still look forward hearing most of the original Batman The Animated series cast reprising their roles in this falls hit game. Batman Arkham City..

Until Next Time Geeks..

THOR the Magazine.




In honor of the movie Disney and Marvel have released a special edition Thor Magazine. I don't normally do reviews about magazines but this book caught my eye. The book is published by Walden Media as you can see in the pic on top that the cover is all about Thor. The book is full of alot of great Information about the movie. Along with it are games and posters some can be seen in the pics below these are posters of sif and Volstagg 2 of Thor's fellow warriors.


The magazine also includes many interviews and character art that you can see no where else. If you are a fan of Thor or you just want to know more about how the movie was made I suggest you pick this magazine up. It will be out in May and it will retail for $9.99.

Until Next Time Geeks..

L.A. Noire Review..

It is finally here the long awaited L.A. Noire this is the newest title from the ground breaking GTA makers Rockstar. This game takes place in 1940's L.A. the game follows the story of Cole Phelps and his start from beat walking cop to L.A. Vice detective. The biggest case that he has to deal with in the game is a collection of murders that replicate one of the most infamous cases the Black dahlia murder.

After playing this game for about 4 hours I have to say that it is great. The visuals and the graphics are great and stand up there along with other games that have come from Rockstar. There are a few tiffs here and there but all in all the gameplay is very smooth.

The game plays sort of like Batman: Arkham Asylum and GTA. At certain cases you have to look for clues with a sharp eye and you have to be able to ask the right questions to your suspect or witnesses. Some might find this game a little boring at the start but it picks up after a few cases there are chase scenes and shootouts. That any type of player will enjoy.

The control scheme is easy enough to get a hold of but the hardest curve that you have to deal with is judging whether or not your suspect or witness is lying or telling the truth. Even if you do choose the wrong answer you will be able to replay cases without having to beat the game. Which is great if you want to get 5 star rankings on all the cases.

All in all L.A. Noire is a great game: it has a slow start but it gets its legs after about 30 mins of gameplay it is a great game if you like watching CSI or if you love those old private eye movies. L.A. Noire is a buy I can also say that it is a rent you will not have enough time to play it but just the experience alone is great and something to talk about with anyone..

Until Next Time Geeks....

A better look at the Droid Series 2 Action Figures

Hello everyone, a couple of days ago i posted some images of the new Andrew Bell Android Figures Series 2. Today we will be doing an in depth review of the figures.








As we can see by the individual box that this series has a more figures as well as chase figures. On the bottom we can see the holo-foil seal of approval. Box looks pretty nice.




As we opened the figure it comes in a holo-foil wrapper as well not knowing what you will get. Ohhhhh surprise, surprise, cakes and pies lol. As we can see besides the inside packaging it comes with a a little booklet showing the many droids you could get and collect for this set. looks like 2 to 3 chase figures on the booklet one by Jeff yaksick and another by ?






Another thing about the booklet it shows that Andrew Bell was not the only one this time making these figure designs, but also Google Development Team, DoktorA, Gary Ham, Scott Tolleson, Jeff Yaksick. Pretty nice spin on this set very cool for Andrew Bell to share the ideas in make different Android designs.




Here are some i opened from the box and i must say not bad. I hope i get the set, the figures looks great so far and if you missed out the first set then this is as good or ever even better then the previous set. Each figure has their own unique design which is what i expect from Andrew Bell and Friends. if your into Android or like cute vinyl figures. can't go wrong with these. Until Next time!!!! :P


Pictured is Greeneon Droid

COLLECT THEM ALL LOL

New comics what more can you ask for.

It is 5/4/2011 and what can I say this week in comics is pretty slow. What really isnt slow though is Fear itself #2 this is a great read. If you are anywhere near a comic book shop I urge you to pick it up now and as quick as possible because if you dont you truly will miss out on something great.

Also out this week is Irredeemable #25 this is a great series and the 25th book in the run promises to be great I assure you that. After these 2 titles there isnt much else out that is worth mentioning. A few that you should probably look out for is Batman Beyond #5, Fear itself spider-man, and Secret Six #33.

Until Next time Geeks..
