from the third picture, you can see that eye and colour timer are on, the colour timer are blinking. Cool, huh? Look at the crafting, they use rubber suit, just like in the series, for the "skin" of the figure, allow the figure to be able to pose without the restraint of the hard "skin" of the normal figure. The crafting is so perfect, it looks like the real thing, only if it were to be bigger. Next time I will edit a picture with this figure to make it looks like in the series. Vist my friendster to see more of them.
Ok, my idol. Seriously, in the past, I don't like to have any idol. I don't like the idea of chasing after a person. I mean, why so crazy about them? Idol, to me means that a person or something serve as an inspiration for you. So the idea was portrayed wrongly by the public. Yet, beside ultraman, I got 3 people as my idol. One is Tetsuya Normura, another is Kojima Hideo and the other one is donnie yen.
This guy is Kojima hideo, yeah, he looks a little old, but there is a reason for him to be my idol. He is a video game developer, I guess most people will heard about his name, if you were a console gamer. He is most famous for creating the "metal gear solid" and "boktai" game series. The metal gear solid game is one of the revolution thing he did when he made it. It was the first game to have VA(voice acting). I know in the SNES/SEGA CDmight have some voice acting, but this thing is different. In SNES/NES, it is voice cast, which means only a certain part of the game got voice. In CD, which to my knowledge, is a piece of shit, it wasn't called voice acting, because the game character are real people. Only some exceptional, but still just voice casting. In MGS, the entire game is voiced by real people, even in the gameplay. The grunt sound and other stuff. The sound effect are cool too. The game's story was fantastic that it was called among gamer as "game hollywood".
Boktai is also another new thing he made, it is the first game that uses sunlight to play. Yet, real sunlight, or UVray light bulbs if you have them. In this game, you play as a vampire slayer and sunlight is needed for power-up, defeating enemy easier, solve traps and purifying boss. It got a small chip for you to shine the sunlight on so that you can make the full use of it in the game. Here comes another bad thing of it, when it's raining or cloudy weather, you're screwed up. You can't play the game, so play when the sunlight is strong. You see, there is so much revolutionary stuff he made in gaming industry, there is no way he is not my idol.
This guy is Tetsuya nomura, he is also a game developer. He, in the early 90s and late 80s, did the monster designing for final fantasy series, but he wasn't quite well-know until final fantasy VII. His character design in FFVII is totally different from the previous 6 games, it's more detailed compared to the portrait style in the past by different person, whom I happened to forgot his name. His design in FFVII rise up a lot of comments, both negative and positive. Positive is justl ike what I said, negative is because some of the gamer prefer the portrait style as it was suit more to the series style. Although with the negative comments, Square(now was called square enix, SE) saw the potential in him and made him did the design for FFVIII, FFIX, FFX and FFXII. After seeing the good job he done for the company, he was given more authority, so he is now a director, character designer and other position. He name was burnt deeper into gamer by his creation of kingdom hearts, a game of combining both disney characters/movie and final fantasy characters along with original story line. He also directed the greatest movie ever(to me at least), final fantasy VII: advent children, those who watch it will know why.
He success hadn't stop yet, he is not in charge of directing final fantasy XIII: versus, character designing for all three FF in fabula crystallis project. Now, I think it is almost done. He is now in charge with more projects, the 3 Kingdom hearts spin-off on the 3 portable game console, PSP, NDS and mobile phone. You know what? He is only 37 and he got all these success story. Who one earth can have so much success at that age? Not that many I guess...That is why he is my idol, success stories. I studied game developing is because both of them, they inspired me.
I don't know how many of you know who is donnie yen, but he is definitely my idol. He is an actor/direct/action director from hong kong. He is well know in the early 90s by the movie "once upon a time in china 2", he fought with jet li using staffs and finally cloth staff.
That fight is still considered the best in martial arts movie until now. He then went on to make a lot of other movies and stuff, even oversea too. Some examples of them are blade 2 and stormbreaker. He then appear in more movies recently such as dragon tiger gate, SPL(killzone) and recently flash point.
dragon tiger gate
SPL
He is only 44 years old today and he still looks so young. To me, he definitely on tie with the "best martial art actor" with jet li. His punches and kicks are so fast, I think he can also be called "bruce lee no.2" He also win a lot of award, even from oversea. I am a martial artist too and one day I wish to be as strong as him. So, I must train harder to reach that goal.
Well, that is all for today, stay tune for more and a review of shitty game in the next few post.
