One year ago, very nearly to the day, I posted some scans from Wizard Entertainment's Toyfare magazine called A Goombah With A View. And apparently, quite a few people liked it. This year, Toyfare has returned to the realm of video games for their newest Twisted...

Crap.

Sorry, folks, I know this is becoming far too regular an occurence, but I'm *probably* not updating tonight. Have a physical to kick off a long day tomorrow, and since I can't eat or drink anything, staying up and working all night probably won't work so well. We'll...

End of the Road?

Sigh. There really is no easy way to put this. So I guess I'll just lay it all out as it stands. Money is problematic right now, and I'm sure there are plenty of you who can relate. In our case, we're behind a month on rent, and perhaps more important than the...

Video Game Adver-Comics

No doubt many of you who read comics (or at least, those who actually go and buy comic books instead of just reading scans online) know that comic books and video game advertising have been intertwined for quite some time. To that end, some advertisers actually took...

Gimme a Break, Gimme a Break o/~

Yeah, nothing big, just a bit tired, and I think I'm going to put off the update for the moment.? Not going to give a timeframe that I want to have it done, because I am clearly inept when it comes to adhering to it.? So hopefully this helps. --LBD "Nytetrayn"

Best Buy Gamers Day ’07

So, I went to Best Buy's Gaming Invasion '07 yesterday last week (so much for prompt posting), and it was filled with fun and with disappointment. The highlight for me was finally getting my hands on some Wii games I had not yet been able to play, and so naturally,...

Master Chief Masters Geeks

Sorry folks, no update tonight due to lack of sleep; I'll try and get one done in the morning. But, it's not all bad, at least for some, as this means that I get to specifically highlight one item I did promise I'd put up tonight. Bryan "DarkMoogle" Carr and Geekspeak...

Contra 4: Konami Interviews Aggressively!

It is DONE. I am proud to present, for PoisonMushroom.Org's 1st anniversary, the exclusive Contra 4 interview I was able to get with the Associate Producers over at Konami. I would like to thank Tomm and Simon again for taking part in this interview, I hope it was as...

Contra 4: Konami Interviews Aggressively!

Like many games, the Contra series has seen its share of ups and downs over its 20-year history, starting off as one of the definitive "must-play" NES games, a third-party icon of gaming alongside the likes of Mega Man, Double Dragon, and Ninja Gaiden, among others....

Some Stuff That Bugs Me

Stuff that bugs me... 1) When businesses don't stick to their hours, or don't post them. Kind of pisses me off to walk to, say, a restaurant whose hours say that they'd be open, and it turns out they aren't, with no explanation. There was a small place up the street I...

I’m Back

So, got back late Monday night, and wasn't ready to write then. Tuesday night, a power outage at LJ prevents me from doing my usual writings, and no way I'm wrestling with a straight-to-WordPress post for something like that. As it stands, I'm trying to get all my...

Tubin’ – 7/17/07 – The Truth Who The Eyes Met Before

Before I go for Otakon, I figured I'd leave with one last "Tubin'" with a TransFormers theme. The other day, I was looking for this post I'd made on LiveJournal to show someone, and I thought I had posted it here on PMO, but no sign of it at all leads me to believe...

Review of TransFormers: The Movie

And behind the cut is my review of TransFormers: The Movie. I'm a bit new to reviewing, and not entirely satisfied with how this came out. If you see somewhere that this could be improved, please don't hesitate to leave a comment. But for God's sake, please be...

The Weekend Wrap-Up – 6/25/07

Yeah, thought I'd bring this back. At least for this week, as lately going through three days of news has been a bit of a hassle. So I figured this'll help a little. Whoops, I'm a day late in this, but Happy 16th Birthday, Sonic! Now you can drive! Maybe next time...

Bah.

Ok, so last night, the Rogers cable TV/internet connection all over Ontario went out, and I have no idea when it came back.? As a result, no update.? At least I was able to save what I had done, so I'll have a head-start tonight when I get to work. Sorry about any...

Dammit all.

No update tonight.? Not in any mood to, as I found out last night that my car was broken into. I can only tell one thing that might have been taken; otherwise, they had the hood left up, the doors unlocked, and a back-passenger window shattered. I don't know when it...

Random Thought…

Re: The Wizard, 1989. As much as I love Super Mario Bros. 3, is it me, or did mixing that game with the term "armageddon" seem just a bit silly? Really, you have the announcer making it sound like the end of the world, just to be followed by the World 1 music. Maybe...
