PMO: Now Even More Googlicious!
Nov 5, 2006 | Site News
God, it never ends. WordPress is a tremendous, sadistic joke. But at least I got the new feature up before I ripped by head off my shoulders and threw it for a three-pointer in the toilet(though at the rate things are going, Dante's going to push me the rest of the...
Dissecting a Hedgehog: An In-Depth Analysis of Sonic the Hedgehog
Nov 5, 2006 | Uncategorized
Starting in 1991 and going until 1994, Sonic the Hedgehog dazzled audiences with high-speed high-action antics the likes no other videogame hero can provide or has provided since. With each game, Sonic's adventures grew longer, the levels grew more complex, and the...
Let’s Get Ready To BRAWL!
Nov 3, 2006 | Video Games
Special update: GameTrailers has the Nintendo World 2006 trailer for Super Smash Bros. Brawl. Snake fits right in, amusingly enough. And look, a Mario Kart stage! Looks like some old stages come back, and some changes for others; Mario Kart looks like a revised F-Zero...
The PMO Super Mario Bros. 2 Anniversary Special Feature Presentation
Nov 2, 2006 | Site News
No news on PMO tonight, I'm afraid. See, I'd been working on an article, which is now available for your enjoyment. Unfortunately, trying to work with code and doing it with WordPress is a f@#$&! nightmare. WordPress is like a child with ADD that acts on his own and...
The PMO Super Mario Bros. 2 Anniversary Special Feature Presentation
Nov 2, 2006 | Commentary, Video Games
For many, it all began in 1985 with Super Mario Bros., the title packed in with many of the Nintendo Entertainment Systems sold throughout the later half of the eighties and into the nineties. It was a title which revived an industry that many had written off as...
Too Detailed, Or Not To Detail?
Oct 29, 2006 | Uncategorized
Finally. Coding the thing is a bitch, no thanks to WordPress among other things, but I've got my latest, titled "Too Detailed, Or Not To Detail?"(witty, huh?) up and ready to read. Basically, it's something of an overview of the amount of detail that old "mascot"(it's...
Too Detailed, Or Not To Detail?
Oct 29, 2006 | Uncategorized
Some say the day of the mascot is over. Whereas once characters such as Mario, Sonic, and Crash were commonplace as the definitive icons of their systems, they still continue on to this day, their roles somewhat less defined. In Sony's case, it almost seems that with...
The PMO Capcom.com Experience
Oct 25, 2006 | Uncategorized
Wowee-zowee, Batman. The official Capcom USA website has undergone revision! How exciting! Let's look and see what delightful surprises are in store for us now! For starters, at the bottom they seem to have a "Featured Character" which in theory will change at set...
Oh, Sure, It’s New… But Is It Improved?
Oct 25, 2006 | Commentary, Reviews, Site News
Unexpected update to PMO, in the form of this Pulitzer-worthy piece of editorial content(but I don't want to overhype it, just read it for yourself). Capcom built up a brand-new site, and I tore it right back down. Now, maybe it's not going to be the greatest thing...
Interview With A Spaz
Oct 22, 2006 | Interview, Site News
Bad, bad weekend for productivity. But rather than leave people hanging, I did manage to bring my interview with Patrick Spaziante from awhile back over to the site. Should have something fresh for next weekend, though, when we need it most. I've one or two people who...

Go Nintendo has a special video feature up called Wii History, which is shown in three parts. I laughed at Morgan Webb's comment about the "Revolution" controller at the end of the first part... if only she knew... Go Nintendo also has a pair of episodes of Captain N...
Ethics and Unlockables
Oct 21, 2006 | Commentary
Not sure this properly counts as "commentary," but for lack of a better place to put it... Anyway, playing some games and reading some stuff has gotten me wondering about a sort of ethical question. But not simply any ethics, but GAMING ethics. Typically, if you use a...
Late Again
Oct 18, 2006 | Site News
PMO updates are going to be a little late again today; I've a job interview this morning, and I want to make sure I'm as well-rested and prepped as I can be, so I'll update with news when I get home. Sorry for any inconvenience. LBD "Nytetrayn"
The Ultimate Battle…
Oct 15, 2006 | Commentary, Site News
Added something new here to PMO, an honest-to-goodness article. Of a sort, anyway. So if you like crossovers and what-if type battles, click and check out Robocop vs. Terminator vs. Hollywood. Feel free to let me know what you think. LBD "Nytetrayn"
Robocop vs. Terminator vs. Hollywood
Oct 15, 2006 | Uncategorized
Back in the 90s, crossovers were kind of a big thing, at least in comic books(though games were not immune, Battletoads/Double Dragon: The Ultimate Team, anyone?). Recently, movies have started to cash in on the trend. One of the earlier projects was going to be a...

Small site update here. Some of you might've noticed the recent addition of Amazon ads to the site. Just so you know, I'm not looking at increasing the ads on the site any further for the time being, but I thought that it would be a good way to get people to some of...
