Awesomenauts Review~

First Impression of

Awesomenauts

Storepage

Da Graphics - Haha. 2D side scrolling. like the title, awesome graphics. the cartoonish looks. flawless action. epic effects. interesting, especially to play it in a widescreen / television

Da Story - idk. i never really understand the story of Awesomenauts. just check it on the opening

Da Gameplay - AWESOME. for a 2D Side-scrolling Coop Action game, it really fits the type. it got a full controller support, and the development is still ongoing (it's patch 2.5 when this post is typed). it's a balanced 3 on 3 match, with around 15+ heroes (called "Awesomenauts"). you can teleport back to base without buying some shit, and you could get hit if you don't hide behind your droids. the neutrals are for healing purpose (they won't attack). and the skills are easy to use (and easy to understand). one of my favourite awesomenauts is Raelynn the Bounty Hunter. it's locked until you reach a certain level (which could be achieved by playing Practice Mode). well, earning gold (called "Solar") is easy, you could just kill neutrals, or move around the map collecting white Solars (valued 1 solar). killing the enemy awesomenaut, will drop some gold solars, but you have to be fast, to collect all the solars. coz your friend can pick the solars dropped too. or when you're killed, you'll drop some solars too.

another thing, there is a "Skin" system, so your awesomenauts will look different, but no different in stats. if you have some money to spend, just buy some skin, worth the price if i say (but i never bought anything)

overall 8/10. bonus points for full controller support. i luv dat

why should we play this? it's a fun thing to play with your friends, spending time together, it supports Local and LAN play too... so, the conclusion is, if you want something that can be played cooperatively with your friends, Awesomenauts is one of them

Da Graphics - IT'S FINAL FANTASY CROSSED WITH STAR WARS. PEW PEW PEW. LAZZORRSS. But, i feel more comfortable looking at .hack//'s 3DCG than Aoki Hagane no Arpeggio: Ars Nova's 3DCG. yes. it really looked like Final Fantasy in the combat scenes, and AIRSHIP! *i spoiled the story a little bit*

Da Story - I don't really know this story, i'm confused, what is the true one? Kite is a boy? or is it a girl? (the people in IRAL *In Real Anime Life*). i've read till .hack//G.U.+, but still, i don't understand Kite is a boy or girl.
anyway, it's a good story, based on the original serie, with the first version of The World. since it's a movie, it's a little short, and a bit rushed. but, it succeeds in delivering the original content to the viewers

overall 9/10. bonus points for OSTs.

why should we watch this? coz it's a .hack movie. buy the blu-ray, to get full pawah of the 3DCG

Da Graphics - Read the image. "From the Studio Ghibli" of course it's good you guys. even tho i prefer the moe moe face structure we use now, but i too enjoy this kind of anime. so don't go comparing this to today's anime.

Da Story - Inspired by Mary Norton's "The Borrowers" which i of course didn't read, Studio Ghibli made something quite incredible. they even proved, that a good ending doesn't always mean the main character will meet again, or, the main character will not die.
i'll try not to spoil the story, so, enjoy it yourself, and feel it.

overall 9/10. bonus points, contains life advices.

why should we watch this? it's Studio Ghibli dude, why not?
