Street Fighter Hyper Real Artworks

Here at Atchucan Gaming, we only feature the coolest stuff to show to our readers.
Today we feature Kode (Dabosslogic.com) with his Street Fighter Hyper Real Artworks.

In an interview with InfiniteContinues, Kode said:
I wanted to show all the fans a different side to the characters they have grown up with, just like I have. I have been a fan of Street Fighter since the first game came out; I fell in love with Street Fighter ever since that day.
Take a look at these Hyper real versions of some iconic Street Fighter characters.

Balrog (M. Bison? lol) getting pumped up for Fight Night.

Sagat - the SF character that started it all.

Guile - our favorite artwork from Kode (Boss Logic)

Kode Abdo is from Melbourne, Australia.

You may look at more of his awesome artworks on his DeviantArt page:

NBA 2K11 - Greatest Basketball Game of All Time

When we're not playing games, we play sports and basketball is the name of the game. And this year, 2KSports brings both those interests together with NBA 2K11.

Quick NBA 2K11 Game Information:
Game Title: NBA 2K11
Developer: Visual Concepts
Publisher: 2K Sports
Date Released (North America): October 5, 2010
Quick rundown:
- Well-detailed, almost realistic gameplay
- Broadcasting is nice (makes you feel like you're actually watching a game on TV)
- As always, soundtracks are a highlight for these types of games
- Jordan mode (one of the main highlights of the game)

NBA 2K11 Platforms:
Xbox, PS3, PS2, PC, Wii, PSP

*If you're planning to buy this game, we recommend the following platforms:
Xbox, PS3 and PC

Atchucan Recommendations
If you're both an NBA fan and a gamer, then this game is a must-buy.
Afterall, how often can you get Michael Jordan on a NBA game cover these days?
And of course, this is from 2KSports and not from EA so you already know it's going to be a relatively good product.

NBA 2K11 Jordan Game Cover
Overall, this is the sports game of the year. If you're feeling nostalgic for some MJ 23, then this game would be extra special for you. We suggest buying 2 copies. One to play with your homies and another one to keep in mint condition. We think this is definitely collector's item material. And yeah, you can probably get a lot of cash in the future if you sell it a couple of decades later.

Pokemon Live Action Fan Movie Trailer

Pokémon Apokélypse: Live Action Fan Trailer

Disclaimers before proceeding:
Please do take note that Pokemon Apocalypse (Apokelypse) is a fan film trailer.
*It is not a real movie trailer for an upcoming live-action Pokemon movie.

The trailer contains a violent and dark theme.
*This is definitely not suitable for very young Pokemon fans.

Movie Poster for the fictional Pokemon movie.

Without further ado, here is the fake Pokemon movie trailer from Youtube:



Some fun facts:
This fan made Pokemon video trailer was directed by Barry Liu.
Kial Natale (Executive Producer) plays an older Brock.
Lee Majdoub plays a grown-up Ash Ketchum.

The people here at Atchucan Gaming hope that the viral reaction for this Pokemon fan made video would generate enough interest to compel a Japanese studio to make a real-life Pokemon movie.

*We don't really think Hollywood film studios have what it takes to make awesome anime to live-action movie conversions.

What can you say about this video?
Would you be interested in a real Pokemon film?
