Import Treasures: A New Import Gaming Series

Meru-Sama — Mon, 02 Nov 2009 04:07:09 +0100

Hello, everyone and I am Meru-Sama. I've been a long time fan of this site and the many talents it has. As a college bound writer, I've always been interested in film, but I mostly stuck to novel writing. After some inspiration from James Rolfe, Doug Walker, and others I eventually began to make short silly reviews and as I got better equipment and better knowledge of such, I then began doing better reviews and now I think I'm finally ready (And brave enough) to submit an episode of my new seRead More...

16-Bit Gems #6: Zombies Ate My Neighbors (Super Nintendo / Genesis) [Video Review]

Clan of the Gray Wolf — Fri, 23 Oct 2009 23:58:57 +0100

The Commodore joins Roo in this very special episode for a 2-player review of Zombies Ate My Neighbors.

Continuing our celebration of Halloween-fest-tober 2009, we take you back to when Lucasarts was a game studio in its prime. High off of the success of titles such as the Monkey Island series, they created what on the surface would seem to be a standard action game involving two teenagers fighting zombies. But when you add in a bevy of weapons, tons of stages, and thatRead More...

16-Bit Gems #5: Secret of Evermore (Super Nintendo) [Video review]

Clan of the Gray Wolf — Wed, 14 Oct 2009 13:20:46 +0100

It's the triumphant return of 16-Bit Gems!

How great was Secret of Mana... er, Evermore? Better than you may remember. Roo will guide you down memory lane and challenge the discontent you may have felt from this game being released instead of Secret of Mana 2. So why wasn't the sequel to Mana brought to the West? Is Evermore the only Square RPG never released in Japan? And what game-lengthening tactic really sticks in Roo's craw? Find out in this video review of Secret of Evermore.

Some Bloke Interviews.....Paw

Thomas Sweet — Sat, 10 Oct 2009 17:21:17 +0100

Recently, Paul "Paw"Schuler, Channel Awesome's music reviewer, and host of Transmission Awesome, was kind enough to take some time to discuss his work, life, and his thoughts on the music industrywith me.

Some Bloke: So, in one sentence, how would you sum yourself up?

Paw: Bored and preachy with an outlet to the masses.

SB: We were introduced to you with the "Full Circle" videos, but how did those come about?

P: Full Circle was born afteRead More...

Clan of the Gray Wolf — Sat, 10 Oct 2009 01:39:46 +0100

What were the best consoles of their respective generations after the leap into 3D gaming? The Commodore and Roo continue their discussion of the winners and losers of each console generation as they further develop the Roo-ian theory of console success. Remember when the word Xbox prompted laughter? Will there ever be a console more successful than the PS2? Remember the first time you heard the phrase "Wii would like to play?" These questions pondered and a whole lot more in Generational WarRead More...

Introduction: Your resident gadabout

Kristen — Tue, 06 Oct 2009 16:32:02 +0100

Hello! First entry ahoy! Long-time lurker turned blogger, I'm the gadabout girl. I hope to make videos soon, but for now I may as well write, right?

As a critic, I get a bit of a thrill raving about something I absolutely cannot stand. It's cathartic. And since I don't adhere to one medium, there is a lot of Read More...

Clan of the Gray Wolf — Sun, 27 Sep 2009 18:41:10 +0100

In this episode of the Echo Screen Roo joins the Commodore in reflecting on the winners of each video game console generation beginning with the NES. How did each assert their dominance and win their console war? To answer this question, Roo applies his grand unified theory of console-game-nomics while the Commodore adds color commentary! Will Roo's theory hold up though the generations? What innovation did the Genesis bring to the party? Did the CD-I really sellRead More...

Clan of the Gray Wolf — Tue, 08 Sep 2009 16:34:48 +0100

"Painful Memories in Gaming" is an ongoing series of skits that explore the less than optimal experiences one may have had with video games over the years. Feedback is always welcome.

With the technical difficulties on the blogs this past weekend, now seems a good time to not only repost this week's Painful Memory, but also repost all of the previous episodes in case you are new to the series.

Angel on the Shoulder: Pokemon the First Movie

Agustin Dedionigi — Sun, 30 Aug 2009 08:03:32 +0100

Hello, and welcome to "Angel in the Shoulder". What is "Angel on the Shoulder"? Well, this is where I comment and contrast the Nostalgia Critic reviews, giving you a second opinion on the whole thing. Why is it called "Angel on the Shoulder"? Because of the classic cartoon tradition of the little angel and the little demon appearing on the shoulders of the main character.

And, for starters, I'm gonna go with his review on "Pokemon: The First Movie". Now, it shows that NostieRead More...

Touch Detective 2 1/2

Before I start, no this game is not about porn in any way shape or form. And I know what some of you are thinking. "Why in the world is it 2 1/2? What happened to the original?" Well first of all, I never played the original. On my search to find the original, I managed to pick up the sequel instead. Secondly, thRead More...

This is actually Episode 2. The first episode was Amagon for NES, but I thought this episode was the better one to debut, first. It was generally better than the other one, I thought, in several ways.
