Yo ha!
Well ihave just finished watching 8th MS Team. And i have one word to say, Wow! I never thought animation could be that good. Or a story deeper then a bottomless pit. Or the romance more then Tenchi (figure of speech). Although some parts were a little objectionable [cough cough], the rest of the show was excellent. If you ever have the chance to see any episode of 8th MS Team, I strongly recommend that you see at least one episode, even though you might not get it. At the end it gets a little depressing but the very last episode (which is a little dumb) brings the "depressing meter" from a sevenish down to 2 or 3. That is very good because i really don't like depressing endings [ cough EVA cough EVA]. When i saw the last few episodes of EVA, i was very dpressed. Even thinking of it now is bad. And i heard the movie is even worse. But the final note on 8th MS Team, definatly for mature audiences (12-13 and up) because the story is so deep and some parts get a little steamy (literaly and figuratlivly) but the cut version the Toonami showed is just fine because the action id really cool. For all of you GW fans out there, do you remember the one scene from a GW episode called "Party Night" where Alliance forces try to kill of Relena but Heero stops them. I think it is episode 6. There is this one part where Wing Gundam is firing its vulcan cannons and tears off the arm of a Leo suit. That 2 second scene is the best animation in all of GW. The entiraty of 8th MS is like that. Unfortunatly, there are only 12 episodes of 8th MS but somehow they still have that 20 episode story feeling at the last episode. the other bad part is that there is no box set to buy it. I had to go through much expense to find/buy it. And it helps if you saw just a little tiny bit of the very first Gundam series called 0079 cuz some of the characters are the same.

Well thats alot to say about just a few episodes. Now to recommend a game. Star Wars Battlefront for the PC/Xbox. Its a cross between Halo, Conquest mode of 'Star Wars Clone Wars', and any squad based game (Rainbow 6 comes to mind). You run around as droids, republic clones, rebels, or the Empire (Of course the clones are the best). You can jump in tons of vehicles no matter who makes them (ex. clone jumping in a trade fed. tank) and spread pain and damage with them. You can choose your class every time you die. Different class people can do different things. A hvy weps. specialist gets a rocket launceher and mines. A scout gets a recon droid and a sniper along with going faster. A pilot can give ammo, repair vehicles even while driving them, and give health packs. For anyone whos ever played Star wars Acadamy Seige mode this sounds very familiar. Also sopme special people get jet packs to go behind enemy lines to hijack an idle tank or just destroy their offensive line. The bad part is that this is a new game and the cost is high (50 bucks). But have no fear! Xbox will surly make this game platinaim hit and then the price will drop to about $30.

Well i have made an extremly long post but filled with good content. I am sorry if it is too long. And i hope to post DURING THE NEXT HALO PARTY WHICH JUST SO HAPPENS TO BE THIS WEEKEND!!!

later
