Hi Blazing, you did install the entire DirectX package from the MS website? It should be this one here: https://www.microsoft.com/en-US/download/details.aspx?id=35
If you did so and you still have no luck, then I hope anyone of the others can help you.

To be honest, I haven’t watched the newest Appleseed movie yet – I think (you mean Appleseed Alpha?). Be that as it may, I think the ones that I DID watch (the cell animation OVA and the first two computer animated ones, Appleseed and Appleseed Ex Machina) weren’t really good. In fact, they weren’t even remotely on par with the mangas. But that’s entirely my own opinion.
While I think that the Ghost in the Shell movies were really good (especially the first one) and I did enjoy both seasons of Stand Alone Complex, I think Shirow had much less luck with Appleseed. I find it pretty sad that the TV show never got finished (Appleseed Genesis), but I wonder if the newest show Appleseed XIII fills that gap. Did you have had the chance to watch it?
Did you know that Tsutomu Nihei’s manga series “Knights of Sidonia” was turned into a CGI series? More conventional than Blame!, and with mostly one-dimensional characters, but fun to watch anyway. And I just love Nihei’s works!

Well, the music sounds like Die Antwoord because the main characters ARE Die Antwoord. Also, my first video of them was “I Fink U Freeky” (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Uee_mcxvrw). The robot looks a bit like Briareos Hekatonchires from “Appleseed” (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Briareos_Hecatonchires):
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Appleseed_(manga) :
District 9 director Neill Blomkamp has cited Appleseed’s Briareos as an influence on the design of the robot in his 2015 film, Chappie.The thing is that Neill Blomkamp, the director of the movie, made great movies like Elysium (IMDB: 6.7) or District 9 (IMDB: 8.0). IMDB gives it a rating of 7.2, which means something like “great for fans of the genre”. When the movie is out on BD, I might give it a chance and post here what I think of it.

Apparently this is an online only game, where the (lackluster) singleplayer part only works as long as you have a connection with their server. The reviews are mixed on this one, and I for one don’t recommend spending money for this game after reading multiple reviews.

Forget shitty Marvel’s men in tights and instead drool at the thought that The Expanse TV show will be airing on July 2nd this year: http://on.syfy.com/the-expanse
If you never heard of The Expanse, please see here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Expanse_(novel_series)
This is the closest thing to a novelization of the I-War universe as it probably will get.

Well, BUDA is changing I-War to Babylon 5 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Babylon_5), while Torn Stars is its own universe, not unlike the I-War 2 one. So yes, those 2 TCs have a completely background.
