Fire Emblem
Pros: Everything
Cons: nothing
fire emblem is a great game. the way to play this is all up to the player and it doesn't cary any penatly for losing characters (ok, so i'm wrong, if they die they die) But besides that the game is pretty cool, and it branches off after the first eight missions into two different asnd distinct paths, each giving you different characters to see and have join you army. ...

The movie of a lifetime...NOT!
Pros: Good series and character
Cons: plot too predictable and too short of series to devlop a good plot
I'm going to keep this short. If anyone who reads this review has read my Gundam Wing review This series is a bust from the start. it is only 5 dvd's and 12 episodes, including Miller's report. personally I shouldn't have bought this series but I did... an I regret it with all my mind. The reason it isn't a good series is that it doesn't do two things that the other Gundam series did, and here they are:
1. The plot is too predictable and it is given away in the first episode! Come on! Do better than that!
2. The length is a concern, so this problem coinsides with the one above it. if the series was longer than twelve episodes, say 30 or 45 or even 50, this would allow the plot to devlop further and not showcase the ingorance of the main character (who in my mind is an idiot and a klutz) and tihs would earn 5 stars and two thumbs way up there for the plot line, but it doesn't have that *SIGH*.
This is not the best I have seen from the creators of Gundam, and it sure as heck is at the bottom of the barrel for the entire Gundam name.
Even though i like the gundam series, this has to be the worst ever, peroid. ... -

If you make it great...people will watch it.
Pros: Everything
Cons: none
This cleanly wraps up the Gundam Wing series. it showcases to me no faults, and since it is such a good movie, I actually consider it the last episode in the original series making the series 50 episodes not 49, too odd of a number of episodes 49 is. So 50 makes it a lot beter for me. ...

A heck of a box set(but only half of the series!?)
Pros: Really good storyline and a lot of action.
Cons: nothing whatso ever
In this installment, or should I say set of the first 25 episodes of the Gundam Wing series, you start to get the big picture and you couldn't believe all the action in this series! it blows my mind! (not really since I have already seen the series when it was on tv a long time ago. I never missed an episode.) This is a good starting point for young anime lovers to watch, as there is not a lot of cursing (it is rated foor mild foul language, none of the REALLY bad stuff) and it has no blood except for a few scenes, but after that, not that much, heck barley any at all. This is also a drama/action series, not to be mixed up with the pittiful series The 08th MS team (I'll have a review on that series later) and this showcases one guy (more like an young adult, not 18 but maybe 20) Named Heero and a girl of the same age who's name is Relina Peacecraft (at the start its Doralin but it actually Peacecraft)And the two sort of hit it off. If you don't believe me get this set and watch the first six episodes and you'll see what I am talking about.
(guy saves girl, guy wonders why he saves girl because it jepordises his mission, girl wonders as well why guy saved her when guy said he would kill her, guy then wips around to chrush a Mobile Suit in the face with his shields tip) You get the idea i'm giving you right? Then stop reading this and go buy this set!!!!!! ... -

This is a great series.
Pros: Everything and the kitchen sink
Cons: Absolutly nothing
If I was going to purchase any dvd set (and I would too) this would be the one. this is not going to be brief as i have seen the entire series and have loved it since Cartoon network had it on back in the late 1990's, but back to the review. This set is a great buy in all respects as it gives you a well balanced diet of action, comedy, drama, and a load of other things (Like assisins, jail breaks, magic firing guns and all the stuff you'd expect in a futuristic animated series like this.) The idea is that you watch it in order, but if you ever find a part you like, say the first episode where Jean get's into a fight at the bar he usually hangs out at, trust me, it is hillarious.
I will admit that many people do not like Anime, but if you watch this, it might just change your mind. ... -

This is the best Zelda game I've played.
Pros: Graphics, all the original cast and a few suprises....
Cons: none, but there is bound to be at least one
From What I have heard from friends of mine (one of which told me about it since he is a beta tester for nintendo, or at least I think he was...) This game is going to put most of the other Zelda games to shame, including that corny windwaker game (that is in my oponion.) This game is great just from seeing the pictures and comparing it to some of the things I rember about the orcina of time, it looks WAY BETTER than that game. I think that Nintendo has finally found a game series that rivals that of the Final Fantsay series for the playstation platform, heck on a cheat web site they had the Zelda series as the best series of all time, AND it beat Final Fantsay. Most of my friends say that the game cube sucks eggs...but when this game comes out... I wouldn't be suprised if I saw somee of them buying game cubes just to play this game. I've got it pre-ordered...From summer 2005, and it still isn't out yet! (at least I think so...) But if Nintendo fixed things this game is going to be the PS2 killer im my own mind at the least. ...

A football lovers dream
Pros: Everything
Cons: None
NFL head coach is a very good game to have. It is very realistic in its gameplay style and allows the user to make the decisions on who plays, what plays to call on game day, and who on the staff (your teams coaching staff) you keeep or fire.
This game starts off after the '05-'06 season, a month or so before the '06 draft. You basically control the destiny of the team that hires you, and if you screw up...well, you lose your job, that's all there is to it. I actually own this game, and have played it numerous times, so much in fact that I lead the Houston Texans to the playoffs with Matt Leinart as the starting QB! Also the New Orleans Saints I lead to three super bowls in a row, won 8 with the Rams with Deion Branch, Reggie Wane, Michael Strahan, and a bunch of other big name players. This game is somewhat realistic in its style of play, but you can draft any players you want, of course as long as they fall to you. This is a very good game. ...
