You haven’t had a chance to play Fire Emblem Awakening yet? That’s okay, I can wait. Go ahead and download it for your 3DS — or better yet, buy it in a store now that retailers have finally received their … Continue reading Fire Emblem Awakening: Relationships Matter
I first found out about Kingdom Hearts in a dirty bathroom stall. Once upon a time, the adorable younger version of me started his first job at Bashas’, a supermarket chain in Arizona. I was a good worker, but after … Continue reading Music to My Ears: Kingdom Hearts
For those of you wondering where my Sunday post went this week, I have three words for you: Persona 4 Golden. Indeed, the PS Vita title has managed to suck up a large portion of my time as of late. … Continue reading A Remake Done Right: Persona 4 Golden
The North American Producer for Tales of Xillia put up a blog post earlier this month saying that voice acting for the 2013 title was finished, bringing the game that much closer to release. What does it mean for Tales fans? Well, voice acting is one of the biggest road blocks to an international release. Other than localization (think of all the text that needs to be translated), it’s also one of the most time-consuming, as the producer notes in the post: Eight hours of voice recording across an eight week span, filled with late nights catching up on emails, … Continue reading Tales of Xillia Recording Finished?
You’re a precocious kid who just turned the right age to start a Pokemon journey, so you grab a fire/water/grass starter, collect eight gym badges, stop an evil organization, and become the revered champion of the region. Sounds familiar, right? … Continue reading Review: Pokemon Black 2
We spent a lot of time this weekend getting the first episode of Game On ready, as well as recording this week’s episode of the show on the new audio equipment. Everything sounds great, and that’s awesome. Unfortunately, it meant … Continue reading First Impressions: Pokemon Black 2
This series has unintentionally turned into something of a retro review of older soundtracks, for the most part. Other than Lost Odyssey (which was released in 2007), the other titles I’ve covered so far have been super mega ancient old. … Continue reading Music to My Ears: Persona 3
We’ve already had a pair of compelling arguments this week about which Pokemon is the best. It’s a shame both of them are wrong. My colleagues have failed in their explanations because being the best isn’t just about murdering everyone. … Continue reading Piplup is the Best Pokemon
Don’t listen to that heretic Shaun, he doesn’t know what he’s talking about. In fact, he wouldn’t know a Clefairy from a Wigglytuff. He’s that clueless; and we ain’t talking about a movie with a hot blonde.
Metagross is not, in fact, the best Pokemon ever. Metagross isn’t even on the list of semi-best Pokemon ever; ugliest, maybe, but not best. That makes Shaun not only wrong, but a big fat liar. Fact: Metagross can’t fly. Don’t be fooled by Shaun’s honeyed words, there is only one, true, best Pokemon, and his name starts with a Mew and ends with a Two. That’s right, we talk’n bout Mewtwo here people… the most badass Pokemon of them all. Disagree? Well too bad, cause you’re wrong. Continue reading “Mewtwo is the Best Pokemon”
Well, needless to say I’m excited: Tales of Xillia is coming to North America in 2013. This is pretty big news considering how things had been going for the series up until the release of Graces f. Remember, it had … Continue reading Tales of Xillia Localization: Hallelujah
