Video Game Review: Kid Icarus: Uprising

It's hard to say what I don't like about this game, because the list is so minuscule. Really the only things I can complain about are 1. the sometimes obtuse controls, 2. the headache I occasionally get from playing the game with the 3D fully on and my glasses, and 3. the plot points I wished they could've put in.

But the good stuff... is EVERYTHING ELSE.

The multiplayer is great (although I suck at it), the graphics are gorgeous, the enemy/ partner AI is spot on, the voice acting and script...

BEST. DAMN. WRITING. IN. A. VIDEO. GAME. EVER. PERIOD.

Some sample conversations from the game (no spoilers!):

*During the how to play movies*
PALUTENA: Quickly flick the Circle Pad in any direction to dash that way. Hold it down to run.
PIT: That move feels so familiar.
PALUTENA: I think they used it in that one series, "Super Bash Sisters."
PIT: You mean Super Smash Bros.?
PALUTENA: I don't think it was that.
PIT: It's definitely that.

*after defeating a boss that looks like a dog*
PIT: Woo hoo! I just racked up so many Nintendogs points!

*on eating food of the ground*
PIT: Floor ice cream gives you health!

*seeing the Eggplant Wizard again*
PIT: I don't want to be an eggplant again! In the first game I was visited the nurse so much they named the place after me. HosPITal. See?
PALUTENA: ...
PIT: It's a joke, it's okay to laugh.
PALUTENA: No, it's really not.

And did I mention Dark Pit?

I'm sorry. There is only one thing sexier than this in the game, and you see it at the end of chapter 22. I won't tell you what it is, but you'll know it when you see it.

Final grade: A. Are you suprised?
Also, look for my video on YouTube in response to Nintendo spoiling the game for me themselves in a video.

Vocaloid Songs! (Hatsune Miku and Kagamine Len/ Rin)

N00dl3G@l's Vocaloid Playlist

My playlist of my favorite Vocaloid songs. Fair warning though: the tunes are catchy and fun to dance to, but the lyrics... can be creepy...

But it's in Japanese. I don't speak Japanese. So I'll just dance. ~starts dancing like a maniac~

Love from the Noodle Overlord

P.S. Most of these songs can be bought of iTunes, if you want them.

I Totally Forgot I Even Had a Blog

Cuz I've been so busy with my midterms and my new video games and my anime and my fanfics and stuff... plus I'm just lazy.

Whatever. First post of the new year!

Love from the Noodle Overlord

P.S. Now that I've posted, I'll probably not going to post again until February. Oh well.
