And I'll try to post some fun stuff later. --LBD "Nytetrayn"

This is coming a bit later than I had planned, hence the "last minute" part. Christmas is nearly upon us, and I've wanted to assemble a short Wii gift guide for those looking for a good game at a good price. Nothing against Xbox 360 or PlayStation 3, but I haven't...

I'm really going to have to quit acknowledging the anniversary of every little video game-related thing that comes up. But before I do that, one more for the road, I guess. SEGA's Sonic City Blognik pointed out today that Tails, and thus Sonic the Hedgehog 2, turned...

I have finally finished Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney: Trials and Tribulations. Whew, I need a break before I tackle Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney. And then there's Ace Attorney Investigations: Miles Edgeworth coming soon, too. I'm assuming that Apollo is par for the...

Argh! So today, I copped out on digging out and hooking up the Dreamcast to celebrate its 10th anniversary by playing the GameCube equivalent of Sonic Adventure 2 and Crazy Taxi on the Wii (I may play the real DC next weekend). It could either be karma against my...

My weekend thus far has not been particularly eventful, in the truest sense, but I have noticed a common thread running through what I've done so far: aliens. Friday night, I gave Contra ReBirth (purchased Monday, of course) a go on Normal. And, lucky me, I managed to...

...la-la-la-la... Via ComingSoon.net, who reports that the movie will be opening in theaters December 17th, 2010. Clever. Now the people who go to see it can be as blue as the characters on the screen. I'm actually sort of looking forward to this, thanks to opening...

Just a little late to the party on this one by about a week, but as my wife was setting the alarm on the clock-radio, we heard the DJ mention the name of Jason David Frank. Or rather, "Jason David F--" before my wife switched it off, we looked at each other, and she...

I no longer feel safe in Animal Crossing. I'm walking along on the beach in Animal Crossing: City Folk, and I come upon something I've never seen before: a scorpion. Next thing I know, the thing is darting at me as I try to capture it with my net, and the thing stings...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k7nsBoqJ6s8 Guess who just turned 20? As of Friday, August 14th, 2009, the SEGA Genesis has marked its 20th anniversary. Not counting its MegaDrive anniversary the year prior, because let's face it: Genesis was pretty much the home...

[Writing something a little bit different for a change-- I hope you won't mind indulging me.]It's is the time of Summer, and it's hot. And something I've noticed is how the weather seems to affect my drink of choice, Coca-Cola. My wife thinks I'm nuts for even...

It's funny how some names find their way into the common, every day vernacular. Band-aids for adhesive bandage strips, Kool-Aid for sugary fruit-flavored drink mixes, or even Coke for just about any soda that a person can't bother remembering the name of, but are...

So, what have I been playing as of late? I've actually found myself drawn back in to Animal Crossing: City Folk again. I find I'm enjoying myself more with the Springtime weather there than I had with the Winter. I still think this is probably the definitive version...
