Ben 10 Ultimate Alien Absolute Power

Ben 10 Ultimate Alien Absolute Power - Ever since Ben 10 aired in 2005, it's become a rather successful franchise for the Cartoon Network and like all great licences, it has also been turned into numerous video games. Ben 10 Ultimate Alien: Cosmic Destruction is actually the fifth Ben 10 video game, but it's the first for the Ben 10 Ultimate Alien series, which only started airing earlier this year. It gave the developers a chance to play around with Ben's new toy, the Ultimatrix, which of course, replaced the destroyed Omnimatrix. However, even that won't be enough to tackle his latest challenge.

After hearing of small disturbances around the world, Ben goes off to check them out, but ignores the warnings of impending doom from his biggest fan, Jimmy. Things escalate quite quickly though as a cloud of Cosmic Destruction, engineered by To'kustar, is gradually making its way through the solar system, even destroying planets like Pluto. Eventually Ben realises what's going on, following the guidance of Azmuth and sets out on a quest to find some artifacts that can enhance the power of the Ultimatrix.

It's exactly the kind of plot that you'd actually expect to find in an episode of Ben 10 Ultimate Alien, and the combined length of the cutscenes is probably about the same length. There are some suitably cheesy dialogue lines and overall, the story is perfect for the show's IP.

Suitable story aside, the gameplay is where the game starts to encounter some problems, mostly because it does almost everything in a sub-standard way. The game basically sets itself up as a brawler, although there are some platforming elements along the way too. However, there is essentially just one button worth using most of the time, the attack button. There is a counter button, which is useful for defeating certain enemy types and dodging (if it'll work), but the best form of defence is usually being offensive yourself.

Man Hits Teen on Plane Over iPhone

Man Hits Teen on Plane Over iPhone - Police say a man on a Southwest Airlines flight from Las Vegas punched a teenager who refused to turn off his iPhone as the plane approached the Boise airport. Officers arrested 68-year-old Russell E. Miller, of Boise, on suspicion of misdemeanor battery Tuesday. He has been released from jail on bond. Witnesses told police the 15-year-old was playing games and listening to music on his cell phone when flight attendants instructed passengers to turn off their electronic devices because the plane was landing. Witnesses told police that when the teen didn't respond, Miller got angry and punched the boy in the arm. Miller says he "tapped" the teen on the shoulder after he refused to turn off the phone. He told the Idaho Statesman that he may have "overreacted," but that he did not punch the teen. Man Hits Teen on Plane Over iPhone
