Call of Duty: World at War (2008 Video Game)

the best WWII game you will ever find

[9/10 · 16 June 2011]

this game, without any doubt is the best World war II experience you will ever have! the campaign is superb with you fighting as the Americans in the pacific front against the Japanese and the Russians invading Berlin to defeat Nazi Germany once and for all. it's intense, it's fun as hell, the action is none-stop the voice acting is some of the best i ever heard in a game and just plain fun to listen to, the realism makes this game so much more fun to play

i would like to address a special note to this game's presentation - it's amazing, it's dark and moody and it is no longer the silly "BAM WAR IS FUN!" kind of game. atrocities committed by all both axis and allies, serious gore - limbs being blown off and big puddles of blood on the battlefield, and horrid screams of pain from all sides. this is real war, yet still scripted well enough to be enjoyable and fun. no WWII can be compared to this game until World at War 2 will come out.

My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic (2010–2020)

a masterpiece!

[10/10 · 31 May 2011]

My Little Pony was a franchise that was always considered immature and girlie franchise created simply to advertise a line of toys. however, the recent reboot of the show titled: My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic breaks all of the stereotypes and is now the show has fantastic animation, brilliant writing excellent character development and the list just keeps going.

not only is this show great compared to it's predecessors, but it is by all rights one of the best cartoons of the current generation it exceeded all expectations.

all other characters are memorable and lovable, they all have vivid personalities and each has their upsides and downsides. for example, one pony that is named fluttershy is on one hand very timid and shy and spends most of her time taking care of animals. but on the other hand can also sometimes have anger issues.

another fine example would be Twilight Sparkle: a unicorn who is extraordinary talented with magic. she is the wise type character always the reasonable and logical of the group, but on the other hand she is socially awkward and nerdy of some sorts. the personalities are very well done and are generally very realistic making the characters even more lovable

the show's setting is marvelous. it is not the typical girlie 'unicorn land' where the innocent ponies would hippity hop on the green fields. it is a living and breathing world: the ponies live in actual cities, the land is full of strange creatures and there are always different and exciting environments for the adventures to take place, it's like the serious human world only replaced with ponies.

and the most important part is the messages and morals the show tries to put through: the importance of friendship. in the end of each episode one of the main characters concludes what new aspect of friendship he/she learned that day and how important it is.the messages that every episode tries to put through are always inspiring and interesting. for example in one episode, one character was scared stiff to go and with the rest of the gang to take care of a dragon but eventually she was the one that managed to defeat it. proving the help can come from even the most unexpected place and friends that you might think to be useless actually care for you the most.

the fantastic and fluid animation combined with the rich and yet adorable art style also add a lot to the experience.

My Little Pony: Friendship is magic is without a doubt one of the best cartoons of the current generation, the animation, characters, setting writing are just wonderful and anyone and everyone should enjoy the message the show is promoting: Friendship IS magic
