Metroid Prime Review
I played Metroid Prime. It was incredible.
Retro Studios perfectly translated Metroid game design into 3D, with a satisfyingly complex non-linear map, and puzzles that feel more alien than any Metroid I’ve played so far.
The environment design and atmosphere are some of the best I’ve ever seen. Every single region and room on Tallon IV is gorgeous and fun to explore, and collecting upgrades is just as satisfying as the 2D games. The graphics are amazing, with awesome lighting, and cool details like seeing rain droplets on Samus’ visor, or even her own reflection.
I got used to pressing R to aim decently quick, and after a while it became second nature. Plus with the lock-on it’s really not a problem. The sidestep dodge is fun, too, and the bosses are very challenging but rewarding.
The story is also wonderfully fantastical, with some really cool sci-fi ideas, and some very disturbing content for a first-party Nintendo game. I love how you collect pieces of the backstory through documents, like a traditional horror game.
Kenji Yamamoto and Kouichi Kyuma’s music is mind-blowing. It’s officially dethroned Super as my favorite soundtrack in the franchise I’ve heard so far. The synths are sweeping and beautiful, the grooves are badass, the melodies are fantastic. It’s perfect.
In fact, this entire game is perfect. A total masterpiece. I can’t stop gushing about it enough. I’m almost completely sure it’s my new favorite Metroid.
5/5

Today's translation #144
Kikan Esu, 2017/07
Sayo Yamamoto interview
Part 2.
I: Arai Kouichi-san, Nishio Tetsuya-san, Utsunomiya Satoru-san were working on "Persona 5" as animators - incredible staff members. The cut where Takamaki Ann is doing a spin, drawn from above is amazing too.
Yamamoto: For that cut, we drew inspiration from Suzuki Akiko's spins. I drew the storyboard and gave the animators videos to use as reference, explaining what's so good about each skater's spins. There wasn't anybody who watched figure skating regularly with passion, but they are so incredibly talented, that just after a little bit of studying of the reference materials, they can understand the characteristics. They really are super-animators.
I: It was really so well-made. In Yuri!!! you actually filmed skaters and then animated the skating. But the first work, where you have used live-action footage in production was…
Yamamoto: The first time when I felt that it is possible to film movements and then make that into anime was thanks to Suyuki Okamura's "Viva Namida" PV. Back then, Okamura-san actually danced for us. In that type of work, what's important is that just making the footage as it is into animation won't give you an anime that you actually directed. That's why after filming the reference footage, I draw the storyboard. By making the animation match the vision you have as the director, and deforming the movements, you can give the animation a better pace, and the final product is closer to what you have imagined.
I: Did you ask Abiko-san and Hisagi-san, who were also a part of Okamura-san's PV animation team, to animate the skating scenes, because they are so skilled at animating movements?
Yamamoto: From the start, those two had a strong reputation as action animators. With Hisagi-san I first have worked together on "Space☆Dandy", and with Abiko-san I have first worked together a very long time ago, on a TV anime series called "TEXHNOLYZE" that aired in 2003. When we were working at Madhouse Studio, my desk was two desks away from Abiko-san. That's why we started talking, and since then, every time I work on an anime as the director or episode director, I ask him to work with me.
[Note: If you want to watch that "Viva namida" PV that Sayo directed it's on yt. It's Sayo, so a bit NSFW ;))) ]

New Release: into worlds strange by audiosalvage
New Release: into worlds strange by audiosalvage
into worlds strange by audiosalvage
I’m a big fan of the E-mu Proteus line of ROMplers. They are not hugely versatile, but their sounds were all over 90s and early 2000s sci-fi television and games. Probably my favorite of those was Kenji Yamamoto and Kouichi Kyuma’s moody atmospheric score for Metroid Prime. Since the 20th anniversary of Prime’s release was last Friday, November 18th, I decided…

“Kraid (Metroid Prime Remix)” by SynaMax
Remix of Kraig’s Theme done the style of Metroid Prime, complete with using many of the same samples and synths used by Kenji Yamamoto!
The composer has also done some videos looking at the various synths and patches used in the Metroid Prime games, as well as an obscure hip hop sample CD that some of the percussion came from.
