Changeable Guardian Estique Game Review

Sep 6, 12:00 games

A new game made especially for old consoles turns out to be a great showcase of 2-D shooter glory. ― Old game systems don't really die out. They just hibernate until they're revived by nostalgic designers who build new games with the looks, the atmosphere, and sometimes even the precise technical standards of their favorite consoles. There's no shortage of fresh “retro” titles striving for the aesthe...

Onimusha: Way Of The Sword Game Review

games

Much like how the game's presentation is wasted on the story, these mechanics are wasted on the game's structure. ― If there was one word I could use to describe Way Of The Sword, it would be “cinematic”. This game will throw you into gorgeously rendered and directed animated cutscenes every chance it gets. There's a part of me that wonders if this game would function better as a samurai action movie...

Super Psychic Policeman Chojo Volume 1-3 Manga Review

Sep 4, 12:00 manga

A gag manga's biggest nemesis is a stale premise. ― Classic gag manga series are like a lost art nowadays. Unless it's aimed at children or combined with a serious story, there aren't many popular or mainstream manga that are just a bunch of fun gags executed with a quirky premise or a bunch of major personalities. I was pretty excited to read Super Psychic Policeman Chojo because the first volume de...

You can't make me cry, I'm a Sega fan. ― Welcome back, folks! Not sure how common this is with other people, but I sometimes listen to podcasts about stuff I'm only tangentially interested in. Two major examples are the Poorhammer podcast, which covers Warhammer 40,000 (and sometimes Age of Sigmar), and Regular Car Reviews, a YouTube channel made by some Pennsylvanians that review cars (go Birds). No...

We sat down with the two creatives to discuss the series, from its historical roots in the Muromachi era to brushstrokes seen on every episode title card. ― How can creativity span centuries? In Japan, a country rich in classical art forms, one example is the evolution of dance. Japan is home to Noh, a form of classical dance born of a turbulent time in the country's history. Many anime fans outside ...

The Detective Is Already Dead Volumes 1-4 Manga Review

Sep 3, 12:00 manga

Make no mistake, the actual narrative progression of these mysteries is far from graceful. ― One of the greatest strengths and weaknesses of The Detective Is Already Dead is that it always kept me guessing. The story is pretty front-loaded with its setup, highlighting a dynamic between Kimihiko and Sietsa that would inform the rest of the series, even though the latter is barely present as a characte...
