Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands (New screenshots)

If someone has not had time to admire a view of the new Prince of Persia from the impending Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands, you can see here - in the new issue of Spanish magazine Micromania is located five-page paper on just The Forgotten Sands. Knowing Spanish is not necessary - you can just stare at a couple of new screenshots, housed in the magazine.

Let me remind you that the release of Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands will be held in May this year.

Sega Zone - new retro console!

News: SEGA creates a new console! But not to the players to press the "big three»: Xbox 360, PS3 and Wii both have fought for leadership in the market, and will continue to fight. But SEGA decided to go their own way.

So, this summer will premiere Sega Zone, console, which the idea should be to squeeze grudging tear of all those who come from the early 90's. For $ 100 you get a plastic box, design something resembling a Wii, and a set of 20 classic games from SEGA. Here, you and Alex Kid, and Golden Axe, and Sonic, and Ecco the Dolphin. In general, a paradise for lovers of good old "pixel" projects.

But the news was not so interesting, if not for the fact that most of the games will be managed through the controller, the functions are no different from the wiimote. We are waiting for the same waving his hands, and that on the Wii, does that have to manage with the characters, for which the earlier and the four buttons on the joystick was a lot. How all this will be easy - not yet known, but the idea itself is quite good.

There is only one snag. At the Zone, we get 20 games. Another 35 will appear in the near future. And then what? Will the company create new games for the Zone? If yes - then it will display the console from the category of old school gadget, gathering dust on a shelf in the category of full player

Impressions:

I want to have faith in ZEXCS, even with a kind of abhorrent premise like "middle school girls start an underwear club." Hell, the last comedy they made was about a bunch of otaku gods and demons with a giant flaming Hard Gay angel and a possibly bicurious robot. No part of that should have been as good as it ended up being.

Unfortunately, this falls far shy of that. I will say that it did have a lot more drama to it than I expected though. It’s clear that they’re trying to tell a bit of a coming-of-age story between the three main girls, one bullied for her underwear fetish and the assumption that she’s doing it to attract guys, and the other two because of how their bodies are developing, over and underdeveloping for each. There are definitely a lot of comparisons that could be made to a show like Tsubomi, but honestly, a lot of that feels lost under the mountainous deluge of T&A. Kind of like how most of the more supposedly mature themes of Kodomo no Jikan are lost beneath all the pedophilia, only… without a pedophile. So far.

Production was pretty strong for the most part, but nothing that spectacular. Music was forgettable, and the low quality webcast certainly didn’t help there. Nothing about the story or characters went in any creative directions, but it was all executed well enough. After everything last season has put me through, I feel the need to compliment what is simply competent direction. Some of the jokes were good, but overall it was pretty predictable so the vast majority of the episode fell pretty flat for me, which just left the drama. Again, they handled it decently enough, but it’s hard to match that against the endless jiggling and shots of girls’ crotches, even if it is making an effort.

Overally, it wasn’t a particularly positive impression for me, so I highly doubt I’ll keep up with this one. I may check out at least the start of the next episode (even though I have no idea when it airs) just because I like to give ZEXCS a fighting chance, but it’ll have to be a hell of a lot funnier for me to care. I’m curious if this kind of thing will make it past the network censors. Terrifying.
