Toy Soldiers: Cold War Review

Toy Soldiers: Cold War is the last offering from Xbox 360’s Summer of Arcade, featuring such awesome games as Bastion, Insanely Twisted Shadow Planet and to a lesser extent Fruit Ninja Kinect. I wasn’t able to play the original Toy Soldiers game but when I saw TS:CW’s core gameplay, and being the huge tower defense fan that I am, I immediately bought it when it was launched last week.

So basically Toy Soldiers: Cold War is a tower defense game set during the World War II era, but unlike most tower defense games the amount of towers you can use in a game is very limited but more importantly you can control a single tower any time you please.

Cowboys & Aliens Review

Cowboys & Aliens is the latest offering from Iron-man director John Favreu and Dreamworks 3^rd try at a comic-book inspired movie. This was one of the summer movies that I wasn’t really anticipating even though I liked the source material (Cowboys & Aliens comic from 2006) but the casting for this film was top notch so I decided to give it a go.

LunarGlide+ 3 Review

I bought the original lunarglide back in 2009 for a few reason: 1) I’m too lazy to have my running pronation checked at the local store so having a shoe that ‘adjusts to your style’ was perfect, 2) the original black/orange LG’s looked pretty cool and you can even wear them casually & 3) My friend gave me a nike voucher for S$100 and that meant I only had to spend another 100 to get the shoes. And boy did I love the original Lunarglide, I was surprised at how light it felt and I could use it pretty much anywhere. Fast forward to 2011 where Nike announced the LunarGlide 3, and this time I felt there are enough changes from the original to warrant a purchase.

Lunarglide+ 3 vs Lunarglide+ 1

Following two successful releases of the LunarGlide collection, the LunarGlide+3 is set to dominate the feet of runners around the world this Fall. The LunarGlide+3’s intuitive design features superior stability, ultra-soft cushioning and secure fit to allow runners to take every advantage of the shoe’s smooth ride and great support in a lightweight, flexible and breathable package. – Nike Press Release

Bastion Review

Sony might have the leg up on Microsoft with it’s first party lineup for 2011 but the 360 is definitely way ahead of the PS3 with it’s downloadable offerings. One of the first games to come out in this year’s summer of arcade is a game called Bastion, which was released last July 20, 2011.

Rise of the Planet of the Apes Review

We want free healthcare!

After the disaster that was Tim Burton & Mark Wahlberg’s reboot of Planet of the Apes, I told myself to just abandon all hope that the franchise could ever do better than the original film. And so when I heard about Rise of the Planet of the Apes I had no intention of learning more about it but I knew I was gonna watch it anyway but with the same level of interest as when I watch B-rated horror movies (not a lot). But for clarification, this movie is actually not a reboot, nor is it a prequel rather it’s something of a unique take on the series; it’s actually a pre-boot. See, they’re starting over but with an alternate reality different from the timeline of the original film. This is kind of the same technique that they did with Star Trek and that turned out to be a really good choice so hopefully it works for Apes as well.

Captain America: The First Avenger

I like long walks at the beach

I’ve had mixed feelings about this film for a few months now. On one hand I’m so happy that there’s gonna be a capt america movie and that it actually ties in to the avengers movie for next year and on the other hand I’m scared because I didn’t think Cap would translate well to the big screen plus I hated the fact that they had to kill of Bucky again just so the comics would tie-in well with the release of the film. But Thor has proven me wrong in that even the hardest superheroes to write for can still be brought to the big screen in an awesome manner.

Harry Potter: Deathly Hallows Part 2 review

First of all, let’s just take a moment to soak in the bad-assery of Harry Potter series. This is like our generation’s Star Wars (esp since I refuse to recognize the existense of Star Wars I-III) and it’s really an awesome kid’s book series, so awesome in fact that even us adults have become fans of it as well.

Having said that I think there’s one big circlejerk going on when it comes to reacting to or reviewing the last installment of the Harry Potter series. Everyone seems to be saying it’s a very good film but how much of our feelings/reviews are being swayed to the positive side of things because of nostalgia or because of the fact that this will be the last Harry Potter movie ever?
