Nintendo looks back at Acclaim
A short, mildly amusing read. Didn't know someone took over the Acclaim namesake. Question is... why? Was the guy who took it afraid of success? Did he feel the need for an extra challenge? What? LBD "Nytetrayn"
Super Mario Land IV
HEH. Definitely one of the funnier Mario Flash movies I've seen in some time, very different on the visuals. Brings back a lot of memories. LBD "Nytetrayn"
Six Sided Video
Was just browsing my movies folder before I hit the hay, and came across some old favorites I decided to share. The site where they originated from is called Six Sided Video, and they've got a variety of different game tidbits and media. But the real prize here, IMO,...
What I believe to be my final thought on MMXC, MHX, and all points in between.
I've come to what I've determined to be the only reasonable course of action for this. I'm going to buy MHX, and I'm going to buy MMPU. I'm not going to buy MMXC until I find it used and cheap. And in doing so, I am going to send an e-mail to Capcom(America, Japan, or...
Why would you think it’s commentary?

MMXC vs. MHX
Thought occured to me earlier. A lot of rumor and speculation seems to suggest that the reason MMXC came out so badbare-bones is because of Maverick Hunter X. The natural suggestion so far is, "don't like it, don't buy it." Red figures we ought to pay for the good,...
More MMXC bitching.
Trying not to go off on a tangent. That said, after reading mhyoshimitzu's post, it's not so much the end product that ticks me off, but how they seemed to go about it. Had they said "we're just putting the first six games on a disc. We'll see what else we can do. Oh...
The Ultimate Showdown.
Between who, you ask? Heh... click and see. LBD "Nytetrayn"
Trials & Tribulations: Video Games’ Many Visits To Court
Yo, peeps in the hiz-ouse. Red's latest piece of keepin' it real just went up last night, yo. And for a fun factoid, check out the last page under "You don't know me..." LBD "Nytetrayn"
As Regards Spoilification
I must say that I agree with today's Penny Arcade. Yes, spoilers suck. But there's also something of a statute of limitations on that stuff. Seventy-year-old movies seen the world over? Your own fault, I figure. Game that just came out yesterday? Their fault....
R.I.P. Eddie
Thanks to lazy_blazey for the info. Fuck. Just... just fuck. I really don't know what to say about this. I mean, Eddie is a guy who fought his personal demons, drugs, alcohol, and overcame them, moving on to become the WWE Champion, the highest prize in his field......
IGA: The Man, The Myth, The Interview
Despite some of his thoughts, IGA is pretty cool, methinks. That last answer, though... grr. Worst thing is, it's because I'm sure it's true. LBD "Nytetrayn"
Strange.
So, XBox 360 is coming out soon. Media's talking about it, there are various magazines and buyer's guides in the stores now, sites are chattering about it... Feels sort of soon, somehow. It's weird. To me, XBox almost doesn't feel like a video game system, not a...
I think he’s right.
We've heard that a million monkeys at a million keyboards could produce the complete works of Shakespeare; now, thanks to the Internet, we know that is not true. - Robert Wilensky LBD "Nytetrayn"
Heh.
In memory of Don Adams, a real bit from his time on Get Smart: Agent 99: Oh Max, you're so brave. You're going to get a medal for this. Maxwell Smart: There's something more important than medals, 99. Agent 99: What? Maxwell Smart: It's after six. I get overtime. And...
Mr. Miyamoto, would you please autograph my…
From The Allspark: Ironic joke, or blatant disrespect? Reminds me of the photo of Sean Connery signed by Roger Moore on The Simpsons. LBD "Nytetrayn"
Hah
This is a neat little piece about the changing of perception of gamers in Hollywood, and why they'd been portrayed as they had before. And it recaps one of Red and my favorite parts from "40-year Old Virgin." 😀 LBD "Nytetrayn"
What WERE They Thinking?
I think it's cool that Mirage Studios/the official TMNT website host their own eBay auctions of old TMNT toys. But looking back... man, what were they thinking? That's what I like best about the new line: even the weird gimmicky stuff seems a bit more plausible, or...
How old do you think Mario is?
Yeah, sure, we know that Super Mario Bros. just celebrated its 20th anniversary, but I'm not talking about that. I mean in-character. How old do you perceive Mario as being? It seems typically, whenever Mario has seen some sort of mainstream presence in the past, he's...
