Michael Bay Quits Transformers
by FakeTrout, filed in Movies, TV on Jun.18, 2009
Michael Bay, a man so closely associated with explosions that the image with this post was the only to come to mind, has decided to leave action movies and his hit Transformers franchise behind.
Reported on IMDB he says “After the three and a half years I’ve spent making these movies, I feel like I’ve had enough of the Transformers world. I need to do something totally divergent, something without any explosions.”
The second chapter in the live action Transformers saga, Revenge of The Fallen, releases next week, and Paramount Pictures has already announced intentions for a third film in July 2011. Michael Bay already said no to 2011, adding he wanted to take a year off and he’s come back 2012. Sounds like 2011 may be the date with a new director.
Beside Final Fantasy VI, Final Fantasy IV was my personal favorite of the 8 and 16-bit Final Fantasy games. Millions of other players enjoyed it as well, as it included an epic plotline, memorable characters, and top-notch RPG action. Following in the footsteps of Final Fantasy X, VII, and XII, Square has seen fit to expand on the universe of Final Fantasy IV with an all new sequel, The After Years. Originally released as a mobile phone title in Japan, Square has bought the title over here in an episodic format on Nintendo’s WiiWare service. The main title is available for 800 Wii points, while the chapter ‘Rydia’s Tale’ is available for 300. Subsequent releases will be released throughout the coming months for 300 Wii points each with the final chapter priced at 800 Wii points. You’ll reunite with old friends, meet new ones, and hopefully save the world one more time.

The original Osman was a Turkish Sultan who established the Ottoman Empire and ruled it until his death in 1326. The Osman in this week’s Lost Classics is apparently the brother of Capcom’s Strider Hiryu who lives in a futuristic version of the middle east. He can crawl up walls, do flips, and dispatch enemies with the greatest of ease just like Capcom’s ninja. However, there is a good reason for this, as Osman was created by several former Capcom staffers, including Kouichi “Isuke” Yotsui, who also created Strider.
