Ben 10 Omniverse 2 Nintendo 3DS

December 14, 2013 by Momstart Leave a Comment

One of the games my son likes the most is Ben 10 Omniverse, so when he saw Ben 10 Omniverse 2 he had to play it too. Now he says it’s a bit hard for him so he doesn’t play it as often as he plays his other games but he does like it. We have a long standing history here on MomStart with Ben 10.

We were this little:

I’m having a hard time finding our photo where we are all wearing green jackets but I have a photo from that day where we are all decked out all four of us in our Ben 10 uniforms. Now for Ben 10 3DS.

Ben 10 Omniverse 2 has everything fans love about the hit series: aliens, action, and an all-new adventure. Set off on an all-new adventure with Ben as he infiltrates Incursean battleships to secretly return to earth. It’s not easy, as I mentioned above Miles has a hard time with it but he loves how it feels like racing. Face off against new enemies featuring authentic voices in an all-new story written by the writers of the actual Ben 10 Omniverse TV series. It’s nice that it’s based off the new series because we get a new set of aliens. High-flying platforming action and new aliens make this the most intense Ben 10 game yet! You should give it a try!

        Ben 10 Toy Line Up & D3 Ben 10 Galactic Racing Nintendo DS

        November 14, 2011 by Momstart 181 Comments

        I had quite a unique opportunity when Time To Play invited me to their Time To Play Holiday Showcase two months ago. At that time it was really hard for me to start thinking about Christmas but here I am now ready and already feeling a bit behind in Holiday Shopping. Ben 10 is a special treat for our family because it’s the most memorable time our family had as a family as far as blogging trips go. My kids still talk about the trip D3 took us on to introduce us to their Holiday Christmas Line Up a few years ago, and that included Ben 10. So I had to share the Ben 10 Toy Line up for 2011 along with the newest D3 Video game Ben 10 Galactic Racing.

        Bandai’s new line of toys based on BEN 10 ULTIMATE ALIEN, the hit boys action property which, now in its sixth year, continues to grow and find new fans each year and here is this year’s highlights.

        Ben 10 Tech Blasterimage

        (BANDAI AMERICA/Ages 6 years and up/Suggested Retail Price: $29.99/Available: Now)

        Wield the most powerful weapon in the universe. State of the art battle gear is at your fingertips with this multi-function piece of alien tech which features sounds, lights and voices. Kids can convert the high-tech case into five different toys, each with different play patterns: Deluxe Blaster, Mini Blaster, Super Decoder, X-Ray Scanner and Multi Scope.

        Ben 10 Ultimate Alien Chest Badgeimage

        (BANDAI AMERICA/Ages 6 years and up/Suggested Retail Price: $19.99/Available: Now)

        Now kids can have all their favorite alien voices at their command with the new Ultimate Chest Badge. With a turn of a dial and a smack to the badge like Ben, they can hear the voice of their favorite characters from the Ben 10 Alien Force or Ben 10 Ultimate Alien series. The Ben 10 Ultimate Alien Chest Badge features 14 alien voices and spikes eject when the unity is pressed indicating Ultimate Alien mode.

        • Ben 10 Ultimate Ultimatrix image

        (BANDAI AMERICA/Ages 6 years and up/Suggested Retail Price: $24.99/Available: Now)

        The most advanced and aesthetically designed Ultimatrix to date. The detailed inlay of the watch and translucent materials let the wearer see the inner workings while being able to search for Azmuth’s secret signature. The newest Ultimatrix displays a sequence of lights and futuristic sounds allowing its owner to imagine the ultimate Ben 10 transformation! The Ben 10 Ultimate Ultimatrix features lights and sounds and is signed by Azmuth.

        Ben 10 Revolution Ultimatrix

        (BANDAI AMERICA/Ages 6 years and up/Suggested Retail Price: $14.99/Available: Now)

        Spin into action and defeat evil aliens with the new Revolution Ultimatrix. The device comes with two Ultimate Alien mini figures that can be interchanged on the top provided. Place the top in the Ultimatrix, wind it up and set your favorite aliens spinning into action! The Revolution Ultimatrix also features an LED light to make the mini figures glow. The Product comes with two Ultimate Alien figures, Ultimate Big Chill and Ultimate Cannonbolt, and three evil alien cut-outs for target practice.

        Ben 10 Ultimate Alien Collection 4” Figures

        (BANDAI AMERICA/Ages 6 years and up/Suggested Retail Price: $6.99/Available: Now)

        The Ultimatrix has gone Haywire and has mixed up the alien DNA! The new Haywire Action Figure series features Ultimate Aliens with unique DNA mixtures that have color mash-ups. Each 4” Haywire or normal Ultimate Alien figure comes with a mini figure. Other 4” figures come alone or with an accessory. Kids can place the mini alien figure on top of the Revolution Ultimatrix (sold separately), crank it up, and release to watch your favorite alien spin into action!

        The Ben 10 Galactic Racing Game, this time featuring the Nintendo DS

        ben 10 galactic racing

        So all of the basic information is the same about D3’s Ben 10 Galactic Racing video game as the previous post I wrote. It’s the same premise, but made smaller and was harder for me to play. The Kids had no problem with it.

        Key Features

        • Become a Champion! – Select a character and compete against opponents in a circuit of action-packed, high-speed races in increasingly challenging tracks filled with offensive and defensive pick-ups, where players earn awards along the way.
        • Enjoy a BEN 10 Multiplayer Experience Like Never Before – The first BEN 10 racing game allows players to compete against up to three friends to become the champion racer.
        • Race as Your Favorite Characters – Players can race as Ben, who can transform into aliens mid-race, or as other characters from the BEN 10 universe, each of which can use unique attacks themed to that character’s abilities. New alien hero Fasttrack makes his video game debut and as a DS exclusive, play as popular alien hero Diamondhead.
        • Fun and Challenging Grand Prix Tracks – Players can burn rubber on more than 12 distinct race tracks on three massive worlds. Players can also race in 12 fun karts, some based on vehicles seen in the BEN 10 series.
        • Exceptional Level of Authenticity – The game is based on the phenomenally-successful Cartoon Network original animated BEN 10 series and the game’s art style, sound effects and music are 100% authentic to the show.

        D3 Presents Ben 10 Galactic Racing Xbox 360

        November 14, 2011 by Momstart 134 Comments

        Racing games are my favorite kind of video games, always have been and always will be. I just love racing around the track and Ben 10 Galactic Racing brings a new fun adventure to the screen with the Omnimatrix of changing characters and powers. It’s like Mario Kart in a way but at the same time different. It’s Ben 10 and you can play as either Ben, Kevin or choose from 13 fan-favorite aliens. BEN 10 Galactic Racing presents the ultimate racing experience, where every character has a special ability to utilize on the race track and even Ben can transform into different aliens mid-race!  We played this as a family one night. Zoe against dad, mom against Miles and Zoe against Miles and Dad against Mom. We just kept taking turns until our hands hurt. It was a fun family night in. I had a great time playing and loved using my power ups to make my husband crash! Yep, I’m that kind of wife.

        The Game Premise:

        Every one thousand years, the Galvan alien species holds a celebration in space, where aliens from all over the galaxy attend a high-speed race. In BEN 10 Galactic Racing, players will compete as Ben himself, or choose from 15 fan-favorite aliens, in the Galactic Grand Prix Race that takes place in more than 25 exhilarating and challenging grand-prix tracks spread across five different planets from the BEN 10 universe.

        This fast-paced and interstellar racer is coming this Fall to PS3, PSP, Xbox 360, Nintendo DS, Nintendo 3DS and Wii.Img2

        Key Features Worth Mentioning:

        • Become a Champion! – Select a character and compete against opponents in a circuit of action-packed, high-speed races in increasingly challenging tracks filled with offensive and defensive pick-ups, where players earn awards along the way.
        • Enjoy a BEN 10 Multiplayer Experience Like Never Before – The first BEN 10 racing game allows players to compete against up to three friends to become the champion racer.
        • Race as Your Favorite Characters – Players can race as Ben, who can transform into aliens mid-race, or as other characters from the BEN 10 universe, each of which can use unique offensive and defensive attacks themed to that character’s abilities. New alien hero Fasttrack makes his video game debut!
        • Fun and Challenging Grand Prix Tracks – Players can burn rubber on more than 25 distinct race tracks, which include extreme courses that shift mid-race, on five massive worlds. Players can also choose from more than 30 karts, some based on vehicles seen in the BEN 10 series, and others are available as special unlockables.
        • Original Storyline with an Exceptional Level of Authenticity – The game is based on the phenomenally-successful Cartoon Network original animated BEN 10 series and the game’s art style, sound effects and music are 100% authentic to the show.
        • Img1

          Our only complaint would be that the Xbox 360 gamer points are only available in single person mode. It’s quite a bit of fun earning gamer points. It’s one of my husband’s main objectives when he’s playing a game.

        Ben 10 Alien Force Volume 6 Giveaway

        March 29, 2010 by Momstart 228 Comments

        Description:

        Ring in the spring with new alien-fighting action as Cartoon Network Enterprises and Warner Home Video release Ben 10 Alien Force Volume 6 to DVD on March 30th.  In this latest release, Ben Tennyson is up to some serious monkey business that results into an intergalactic war.  Along with containing the final four episodes from the series’ second season, the DVD also includes an Alien Database bonus feature.

        Watching It:

        Ben10 We received a copy of this DVD last week to review. Of course the kids are familiar with two of the aliens that Ben changes into. They love as we like to call them PM and Red Fred. (Chromastone and Jet Ray). The kids play with the action figures and Zoe says that PM keeps her closet safe from Monsters.

        Volume six contains the series two part finally of the final battle. Not having seen very much of the series I didn’t feel lost, the two episodes that built up to it showed me enough to know what was going on. I was worried that it was too scary for the kids to be watching but it was cartoonish enough that they never complained about being scared.

        I don’t follow it much, but it looks like they could start a new Ben 10 with a different set of 10 aliens.

        Win It:

        Ben 10 Alien Swarm Live Action Movie From Cartoon Network #giveaway

        December 11, 2009 by Momstart 169 Comments

           

        I wanted the opportunity to give this movie, Ben 10 Alien Swarm, away on Mom Start because I have been so deep in Ben 10 Products this year. I felt like this is a great fit even though it looks way to scary for my kids to watch. Should be perfect as a Christmas Gift for older children though, the ones in the tween age boy category?

        About Ben 10 Alien Swarm:

        This is sequel to Ben 10: Race Against Time. The movie was released in November and is rated  TV-PG. This live-action movie was filmed in Atlanta, Georgia. The director of this movie is Alex Winter, Ryan Kelley as Ben, Nathan Keyes as Kevin, and Galadriel Stineman as Gwen. The script was written by the writer of Fantastic Four part 2, John Turman. The plot is that our world is threatened with an imminent invasion from a swarming alien menace. And there is only one hero brave enough, smart enough and tough enough to fight back – Ben Tennyson! But when Ben teams up with an outsider, he breaks rank with Gwen, Kevin and Max and risks losing against the toughest enemy he has ever faced. The stakes are high and the action is intense as Ben fights to protect our planet from the Alien Swarm!

        BanDai Action Figures for Ben 10 and Kamen Rider Review and #giveaway

        November 2, 2009 by Momstart 222 Comments

        While on the trip with D3 Publisher, we were given a little bag full of toys. Then when we went to Papaya we were given a few more toys. The toys that Papaya gave us were Ben 10 Monsters and my daughter loves them. I was going to give the rest of the toys to my kids as Stocking Stuffers but my husband reminded me that they would make a good donation and my kids are actually under the age for them. But she really does enjoy playing with them.

        In all of my writings of my trip with D3 Publisher I never included much about Kamen Rider. We actually got to meet the star of the TV Series and see his “extreme Martial arts” in action. He teaches other children how to do extreme martial arts. Below are a few examples of the toys that are from the TV Series Kamen Rider.

        Ben 10 Video Game Review for the Wii

        November 2, 2009 by Momstart 482 Comments

         

        Ben 10 Alien Force Vilgax AttacksD3 Publiser was kind enough to send me one copy of Ben 10 Alien Force Vilgax Attacks to donate, to keep (my husband’s Christmas present), and one to giveaway to a lucky reader. I must apologize because I did request the copy for my husband and that was not very nice of me. I mean, this was our favorite game out of the ones that we were able to preview. The graphics were the highest on the Xbox 360 and my husband is addicted to getting gamer points. Ok, not addicted but if he finds a game he enjoys then he has to get 100 percent completion in the on-line points. So, thank you D3 Publisher and Papaya for the copy of the game on the XBox 360.

        Thoughts on the game so far

        I was watching my husband play his Xbox 360 version of Ben 10 and he said it is perfect for the target audience. I was thinking what does that mean, he said, it’s for children ages 10 and up. As you play Ben’s uncle provides you with tips to tell you which monster to use to help you along and you have to constantly switch monsters to complete the game. Papaya designed this game with Cartoon Network and are very satisfied with it. It’s the first version of the game where you can use all 10 monsters. Changing monsters seems to flow and this game captivates my daughter because we were also given some toys. Papaya Studios gave Zoe the Purple Monster, we call him PM. I have no idea what his real name is. My husband told me but I can’t remember everything I’m supposed to blog about. Zoe loves her “PM”.

         

        Ben 10 Ultimate OmnitrixOne of my favorite things about this part of the D3 Family Event Tour was that we took pictures in the Ben10 Jacket and wrist band. My son just loved the wrist band.

        Ben 10 Ultimate Omnitrix

         

        You can purchase these wristbands from 5.00 to 50.00 depending on the amount of detail that you want in your band. The ones we played with are listed at Amazon.com for 20.00 and were a lot of fun. It was also nice because we now have a family photo. Family photos are very difficult to acquire.

        About Ben 10

        Ben 10 is one of Cartoon Network’s most popular cartoon. Ben 10: Alien Force is an American animated television series created by Dwayne McDuffie and Glen Murakami and the studio "Man of Action" (a group consisting of Duncan Rouleau, Joe Casey, Joe Kelly, and Steven T. Seagle), and produced by Cartoon Network Studios. It is a sequel to Ben 10. Set five years after the original series, the storyline is notable for having matured the character and taking a darker tone, with more complex plots, less manicheism and sometimes more character’s death.

        Five years after the events of the original series, 15-year old Ben Tennyson has returned to a normal, everyday life. His adventures done, Ben has taken off the Omnitrix and has grown from a young boy into a confident teenager. But the mysterious disappearance of Grandpa Max prompts him to wear the omnitrix then Ben, Gwen, and a newly reformed Kevin Levin to search and locate him. While at the same time enlisting the help of child Plumbers and repelling attacks from a new foe DNAliens and The Highbreed.

        Some time after the Highbreed are defeated, Ben, Gwen, and Kevin continue their adventures dealing with various alien threats. These include facing off with some villains from Ben’s past such as Vilgax and Vulkanus.

        Our 1 day Family Vacation in LA with D3 Publisher

        October 16, 2009 by Momstart 1 Comment

        My family had the wonderful opportunity to visit with D3 Publisher last weekend.  They flew our family down to the Los Angeles area for the weekend to show us their new video games. We got in to LAX around 9:30 and didn’t get to our hotel room until about 10pm. We stayed at the Loews Santa Monica Beach Hotel which was really nice and they gave my kids Little People Toys. Anyways, the kids had fun playing in the hotel room before we settled down for bed. We’re pretty strict on our 7pm bed time at home, but this night we were all up until 11pm and we had some good family fun being silly in the hotel room.

        On Saturday they kept us very busy. We had a fun day down in Southern California. They loaded us and some other families onto a big coach bus and took us out to Irvine to see their games based on the "Secret Saturdays" and "Ben10" cartoons. They work with Papaya Studios and Cartoon Network to create some very fun games. The newest version of “Ben10” is going to be the first time that you can become all ten of Ben’s creatures. I’ve never seen the cartoon but the game quality is quite impressive on the Xbox 360. We had nannies available for us to use while we were there. The nannies spent the whole day with us and my kids fell in love with one of the nannies.

        Next we went to House of Champions Academy of Martial Arts for their game based on the kids TV show "Kamen Rider: Dragon Knight". We had to recover from being on a bus for an hour when we arrived. The charter bus broke down on the LA highway during rush hour traffic. This is where D3 impressed me the most. They took as much care of us as they could while we were waiting for another bus. It was hot but they had plenty of water and they even provided entertainment.

        Aside from the good humor they also handed out a Nintendo DS to each mom. Inside each DS was a copy of Secret Saturdays: Beasts of the 5th Sun.. Finally we went back to Santa Monica (where our hotel was) for a screening of the new movie "Astro Boy" and a preview of the Astro Boy video game. The movie was good (and a rare treat – it was very clean). It  We were sitting in Dick Clark Studios previewing a movie. theater

        Not only did I feel like someone that is very important but I felt like I was on a date. We haven’t had a date since my daughter was born. My kids were with the nannies and I was able to enjoy myself for an hour and watch a movie before anyone else gets to see it. I wasn’t able to finish the movie because my kids needed me but I liked what I saw. Interesting fact I didn’t know until we got back is that the original Astro Boy was the first anime ever, from back in 1952.

        We didn’t have much time before we had to catch our ride to LAX on Sunday morning, but since our hotel was right across the street from the beach, we made sure to walk over there and have a bit of fun. I think this is the first time the Zoe and Miles have been to a real ocean beach.

        Over the course of the next few weeks I’ll be posting more about individual things we were able to see and do.. But this is my fully disclosed post. Thank you D3 for making a vacation possible and my husband wants to come back next year.
