Black Lagoon 3rd Season Announced

According to Moonphase Diary, a third season of Black Lagoon has been decided. No other further details yet available.

Final Fantasy XIII Officially On 360

Like I said in the past about my FFXIII going multiplatform, I guess I was correct after all. During the Microsoft Press Conference at the E3 Media and Business Summit, they showed a trailer, with the words “Cocoon - A paradise crafted by the inscrutable fal’Cie some thirteen centuries past.” Then it turned out to be a trailer for Final Fantasy XIII. At the end of this trailer, it says Final Fantasy XIII on Xbox 360 US and Europe.

With this, Final Fantasy XIII will now have a simultaneous release with the PS3 and in US and Europe, at the same time! OMG! How is this game going to look on the 360? Probably just the same as the PS3 or maybe a bit lowered graphics. Although the 360 is also getting this title, there has been no confirmation of rather Final Fantasy Versus XIII will be coming to the 360 as well. So for now, it’s a PS3 exclusive.

Claymore

I've been reading the manga and watching the anime, both of which are very well done. Normally I'll read a manga series and then watch the anime and complain about how much better the manga was compared to the anime but not this time.
Storyline: The Yoma, being shapeshifters, are capable of taking on human form and living in disguise amongst humans. By consuming a human's brain, Yoma can also absorb their memories, allowing them to disguise themselves as specific people without alerting any of their close friends or family. A nameless and highly secretive organization has created an order of superhuman warriors to protect humans from the Yoma. These warriors have come to be popularly known as Claymores, after the immense claymores they wield. Villages being attacked by Yoma hire Claymores to kill the Yoma for a large fee. The plot follows Clare as she fights Yoma and struggles to hold on to her humanity. As the series progresses, she becomes a stronger and better fighter, gradually earning the respect of strong allies and coming in conflict with the shadowy organization, the top Claymores who support them, and many powerful "Awakened".
