I love reading Wikipedia. I find out so much useless(along with the occassional useful) trivia. For instance, did you know that in the old TMNT cartoon, Casey Jones was played by Pat Fraley? Ok, that's nothing, in itself. But more recently, he also played Shy Guy in...

Sony says that the XBox 360 is a "transitional product," while the PS3 is made to last "for many years to come." This intrigues me. Does this mean to imply that whereas the 360 will be obsolete in roughly five years, that the PS3 will still be Sony's entry into the...

Since they haven't put out a new Rad Racer, Ehrgeiz, Bushido Blade, or Illusion of Gaia in forever and a decade, I can gleefully say that I don't feel the least bit conflicted in calling Square-Enix cheesef***ing assmonkeys. LBD "Nytetrayn"

Toastyfrog is in the process of creating his own game, and in this process, he has been exploring the free-roaming 2-D exploration-type genre, often simplified as "Metroidvania" type games, as of late. To that end, he has begun a new series(?) of pieces looking back...

Wow, I'm so conflicted about Left Behind, Christian game with more spyware than a James Bond flick. "Even the consistently cranky crack-pot, Jack Thompson, has come out in opposition of the game due to game elements like goat-footed demons emerging from UN...

The Top Hog turned 15 yesterday. Here's to 15 more. ...and Sonic 1 for the GBA? Nift. Probably be better if it were a nice Sonic 3 & Knuckles game, maybe with Sonic 2, but no complaints. If you're into the GameTap scene, then they're running a sort of Sonic Special...

Would you buy a used game from these gentlemen? I didn't think so. LBD "Nytetrayn"

Toastyfrog doesn't like Alex Kidd. Me, I think he needs some slight reinvention. Sort of like Kid Icarus, but not. This piece does bring up an interesting point, though. A lot of the blame heaped on Nintendo from back in the day is because they contractually kept...

Over at N-Philes, seems that someone got to talk to Charles Martinet(voice of Mario, Luigi, Wario, Waluigi, and others) on one of the video walls at E3. In the link is an MP3, where the guy asks about some stuff from Super Smash Bros. Brawl and some small talk. "I...

Gamespot's got a neat little piece up, their readers' top 10 NES games. Sad thing is, I'm betting I could probably name a good few games, and they'd be on the list. Zelda. Metroid. Super Mario. Tetris perhaps. Contra, Ninja Gaiden, Double Dragon, Castlevania, Mega Man...

Oh yeah. $600 for a PS3 is bad, but there's a reason it's worse than you think. LBD "Nytetrayn"
