PR Videos

So one of the many new features in X and Y is the ability to make PR Videos. In Lumiose City there is a Studio that allows you to film these short videos, which star your character and Pokemon if you choose. You can add premade captions and special effects. Before you make them you can change your appearance slightly, like adding fake facial hair, or freckles. The videos are fun little clips that you can share with a passerby over the PSS.




Here is one of mine, with a bit of bad editing to spice it up.

Pokemon X and Y

Pokemon X and Y finally came out last Saturday and I have been playing Y quite a bit since then. I am not super far in because I have been training with one particular part of the game, so I can't give a in depth review of sorts. But I will give my first impressions, the game is crazy. It could be that this is my first 3DS game, but the graphics blew me away.

 Here are some pictures comparing Y to White 2, (sorry about the blurry White 2 image) the point being things have improved. The game is bit more complicated, the battles are 3D and the moves are more custom for each Pokemon, I evolved a Pokemon with my 3DS upside-down, and in addition to the bicycle there are roller skates early in the game. Not only are there crazy features/graphics but it like most Pokemon games it is incredibly fun. Let's just say I have spent about 50 hours playing and I only have the first badge. I will talk more about some of the features, and add more photos and maybe video later.
