Wii Review: Tatsunoko Vs. Capcom: Ultimate All Stars

Those familiar with Marvel Vs. Capcom won't need much of an introduction to this game since it offers the same style of play and expands on it. However, if you aren't well versed in your anime history, you may need to do a quick visit to Wikipedia to figure just who the heck Yatterman-1 and Tekkaman Blade even are.

Tatsunoko' is the newest addition to the 'Capcom Vs.' series, though not a lot of gamers outside of Japan are aware of who or what Tatsunoko even is. If you haven't figured it out yet, they're a Japanese anime studio that dates as far back as 1962, and are responsible for our childhood memories of Samurai Pizza Cats, and the ever popular Evangelion. 

Originally meant to be an exclusive to its country of origin, it looks and feels pretty Japanese as soon as you hear the opening song and start kicking out of some special moves. The pacing is fast and nothing like I've ever experienced before - I loved every second I had with it, and I'll tell you why if you read the rest of the review.

Get the goods after the break!

Videos: How the Nexus One was Made

When it comes to devices like the iPhone, Droid, and now the Nexus One, to the public it all feels like smoke and mirrors -- there isn't really transparency behind these devices and their creators. For those of you a bit curious on the outlined technology that goes into the Nexus One and the people behind Nexus One, Google has released a video series chopped into parts covering things like apps, features, the OS and hardware. The videos are mainly soothing music with snazzy animations with voice overs, but their are some cool things uncovered -- 1st video after the break.

Avatar DVD Screener Torrent Leaks Into the Wild 

Avatar is becoming one of the biggest, (or the biggest) movie release ever and hours after Avatar received nine nominations for the upcoming 2010 Oscars race, a DVD screener (that means great quality) of the film leaked online for everyone to hop on ship and set sail.

Avatar has been among the most searched for keywords on nearly every single torrent site for more than a month already and it's expected that the DVD leak will easily reach 4 to 9 million downloads.

Where to get it - We can't tell you, (but you can start off by going to Kickass Torrents) because if we give you any information at all, we can get in trouble ;)

M. Night's The Last Airbender Trailer Released Early

It seems we get a nice look at what M. Night's newest film The Last Airbender(originally titled Avatar: The Last Airbender) will look like. Damn you James Cameron for stealing the name! The trailer was supposed to premiere during this Sunday's Super Bowl but I guess as usual it was leaked on the internet before. The film actually looks quite bad ass if I do say so myself.

10 Dollar Ebooks are dead - 3 Major Publishers Dump Amazon

The bigger they are, when you push them over it makes a huge splash, and thats the case with these 3 major publishers and the Ebook giant Amazon. Who will pay in the end? us! Even if we are not using Amazon, we will all end up paying over 13 dollars for Ebooks, and most of them priced at 14 dollars and up. Hachette's the third major publisher to push for the agency model, following MacMillan and HarperCollins: They'll set the ebook prices (higher, natch) and the bookseller takes a cut.

USB Car Key Impressioner - Awesome if your using it

Introducing: the reason why your moms next car will be stolen, or if your a car thief, your best friend. This little gem came to be after Steve Randall and Ted Schwarzkopf created the Electronic Key Impressioner after being frustrated seeing his father try to make a replacement car key without the ID code.
