Actually you'll be happy to know that I watched the first episode on Netflix several days ago. I enjoyed it but was going to watch a few more episodes first before I commented on it.

Yeah I love those little bits where the characters get drawn like the to express certain emotions. I watched four more episodes and am really enjoying the show. Damn was episode 4, An Alchemist's Anguish ever sad though, mainly because I have a soft spot for animals especially dogs. I really like some of the humour in this such as how everyone mistakes the younger brother for the Fullmetal Alchemist, Strongarm Alchemist stripping down when he fights, and Flame Alchemist trying to fight in the rain. I'm at the start of episode 6, will probably watch more tonight, may even finish the first season tonight.

Wow another thing I HATE  about the latest consoles these horrid huge installs WTF??? I just got 5 new PS 4 games and now I'm playing the delete installs game to try and fit them in. It's like Vita but with a 500 GB HD and it's not even near enough. Tell me why do we need Blu Ray? Oh yeah Sony Pictures needs it to sell you movies I forgot. with every game having to install compleletely on the HD what does it matter if its 5 DVDS or one BR?  We never needed Blu Ray it's too freaking slow and we can't use the storage capacity. It just plain sucks and BR is dead already.

Yup, every game this gen  on PS4, Xbone, and PC require full installs. On PC, we would have to download 50+ GB games, and then install them. It's compeletly insane. Thankfully, Nintendo doesn't not require installs .  . . yet.

EPIC NOVEMBER NPD!

Xbox One won the month in which is had a price cut, crazy bundles, super deals, coupons, it was nearly $100 cheaper than PS4. So it won... by 7-10k. BUHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Overall:

Overall retail sales are down 11% year over year.


Overall hardware sales are down 23% year over year.


Overall retail software sales are down 2% year over year.



Software:

1.) Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare (360, XBO, PS4, PS3, PC)
2.) Grand Theft Auto V (PS4, XBO, 360, PS3)
3.) Super Smash Bros. (NWU, 3DS)
4.) Madden NFL 15 (360, XBO, PS4, PS3)
5.) Pokemon Alpha Sapphire (3DS)
6.) Far Cry 4 (PS4, XBO, 360, PS3, PC)
7.) Pokemon Omega Ruby (3DS)
8.) NBA 2K15 (PS4, 360, XBO, PS3, PC)
9.) Assassin's Creed: Unity (PS4, XBO, PC)
10.) Halo: The Master Chief Collection (XBO)

Notes:
-Smash Wii U: 710K (retail + digital)
-Pokemon ORAS: 1.5M (retail + digital)
-Smash 3DS LTD: 1.5M (retail + digital)
-Overall Wii U software is up 90% and overall 3DS software is up 40% year over year.


Hardware:

Xbox One: Best selling console.
Wii U: 220K * 1.1 (10% increase) = 242K

Notes:
-"November set a new record for sales of Xbox One, and Xbox One was the best-selling console in the US and UK." - Microsoft
-"Cumulative PS4 & Xbox One sales are now almost 80 percent higher than the combined total of PS3 and Xbox 360 sales after 13 months..." - NPD
-"November was also a strong month for Nintendo on the console side, as sales of Wii U hardware and software increased by more than 10 percent and more than 90 percent, respectively, over the same period in 2013." - Nintendo
-The only thing Nintendo did not explicitly note as going up between their overall software and hardware was Nintendo 3DS hardware. Given they mentioned the Wii U going up by 10%, it's probably a safe bet that it's flat or down.
-"Sales of amiibo are approximately equal to sales of Super Smash Bros. for Wii U so far, while Link, Mario and Pikachu (in that order) have been the best-selling figures to date."

LOL MS. MS threw everything at Sony and Sony sat back, farted and still practically won. Now MS has a system that will go UP IN PRICE, lol, good luck with that MS. Total waste of a victory for MS, this will damage them far more if they were not ready to actually drop their system price, they will be forced to now.

The top 10 is crazy, Smash sold 750k, outsold AC, FC, Dragon Age, Halo and it moved NO Wii Us. 245k for wii u, that is pathetic. AC low on the list is fantastic, show ubisoft we wont take their crap anymore. Halo was not a big deal. Dragon Age, wow, did not make the top ten, that is insane. Pokemon jesus, it never ends. CoD and Madden still selling best on 360, truly the dudebro console.

It's kind of sad that the U does have the best exclusives but are lagging so far behind.

Well I just finished watching season 1 and episode 1 of season 2 of Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood. What a great show. How come no one here recommended it or is it just because no one here has seen it? Nyaa
