No, I’m not talking about basketball. I’m talking about this nasty thing called summer. The time when my electricity bill’s through the roof, and my PC’s coolings fans kick on to overdrive. Every year I look forward to the wonderful time known as summer, forgetting the beastly, sweaty weather that comes along with it. Oh, who can ever forget the lovely body odors that mark the season?
The network kept things cool, giving you even more reason to ignore the sun and stare and your computer screen. Destructoid had some choice words for the Kinect system, reassuring us that physical activity and gaming are not a welcome combo. Japanator declared Hatsune Miku some kind of winner. Flixist had plenty of trailers to watch until the sun goes down. Finally, Tompop made me feel horrible by showing me the one Macross Frontier figure I do not own. At least the summer is an excellent excuse to eat a lot of ice cream.
Japanator
- License GET: Siren gets Black Rock Shooter for Australia. Can they dub it with an Aussie accent?
- She’s Winner! Hatsune Miku’s Chrome ad wins at Cannes. Hatsune Miku is always a winner in our eyes.
- Supercell make sure Inori keeps rocking. More Inori, less Gai.
Flixist
- Trailers: Monsters University. Cute monsters aplenty!
- Trailer: Searching for Sugar Man. Some rock and roll cinema action.
- Red Band Trailer: V/H/S. Whoa, this looks pretty darn freaky.
Tomopop
- Tomopop Review: Figuarts Sheryl Nome: Shine of Valkyrie. My Sheryl addiction knows no boundaries.
- New Masterpiece Transformers arrive from Planet Pre-order. Look at that freaking Soundwave! Perfection!
- This Mazinger commercial is quite convincing. Full metal Mazinger, with a hanger? Take my monies!
