“Well, at least flying can’t get any worse…”

HA! HA! HA! HA! Guess again. Is it me, or does it seem like terrorists do better at being a pain in the ass than spreading actual terror? Someone with sand in their shoes sneezes, and gas prices go up. Rumbling about this or that, and now flights are delayed. Some...

Thanks to [info]igosplashman

The mystery of The Death of Garfield has been solved. This presents an interesting dilemma for me. Do I correct the Wiki, and others who believe this to mean the end of Garfield, in the name of truth and fact? Or is this one of those times where perhaps people are...

Mario Flash

Poor Luigi. Maybe he ought to keep chasing Ecclair or Daisy. Cute little Mario 3 Flash, uses no sprites(well, just one), but I'm mainly posting it because I'm curious if anyone can identify the "30 minutes later" music. LBD "Nytetrayn"

Animal Crossing DS vs. Cube

Animal Crossing for the GameCube is interesting, especially after having played so much of Wild World on the DS. You can definitely see where some improvements were made, and other things you might wish they'd have kept. On the Cube's title screen, it seems to show...

T-U-R-T-L-E Power…

So, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Fast Forward just premiered. According to the Official TMNT website, "The regular season starts on September 9th (the first three eps will be repeated then)." It's not as bad as I was afraid it might turn out to be. Things feel a...

…who knew Jon had a birthday? ;P

I know a lot of people are going to be down on this, but you know what? Fuck that. Probably be the same people who never thought Garfield was worth anything outside of Saturday mornings, anyway. Me? Hell, they could pretty much end the strip with this, and I think I...

“The Truth On 4Kids’ Marketing”

Something of an interesting piece on 4Kids, its formation and practices, and effects on anime and animation in America. Retrojunk isn't really known for any great writing, but every now and again, there's a few interesting bits here and there. And this may fall into...

M.E.G.A. On!

In the recently-release September 2006 issue of Nintendo Power, there is a cover story titled "A New Man" about the upcoming Mega Man ZX which reveals a few tidbits regarding the English release of the game, as well as features and art from the game in general. First...

“Attack of the Show,” Indeed

I'd love to know just when wasting systems became en vogue. I mean, damn. It was funny the first hundred times, with the XBoxes and GameCubes and such, but I'm starting to loseWeight Exercise interest. Oh yeah, and Nintendo is repairing them for free if they're under...

Simpsons movie previews from Comic-Con.

Wowie-Zowie, Garfield!

Holiest of Hells, they're doing things with Garfield now that I haven't seen in a LONG time... A story arc. With PERSPECTIVE shots. Make a note in your calendars, folks, it all started here: From their front page: "Garfield's Life Changes Forever! Read the Garfield...

It’s-a Me!

Wow, looking around for stuff on Charles Martinet, and came across this rather old interview with GameSpy, going over how he got the job and such. LBD "Nytetrayn"

Oh my god… TOO funny…

Optimus Prime returns! ...and gives some exposition as to why a lot of fans hated season 3. Holy hell, that's too funny, and the Prime voice was great... LBD "Nytetrayn"

End of an Era

So, YTV aired the final episode of TransFormers Cybertron today, and it was a good episode. Even better, and more impressive, is that in the American version, we actually got a couple of bits that were exclusive to ours, not featured in the Japanese one. Awesome. I...

Whoa, Really?

Once again, cut one story from the rest that interested me a bit more... So, it turns out that game developers really hate game reviewers. Well, that comes as no surprise, there are plenty of gamers who hate game reviewers, too. Funny how that works. I especially...
