Mashable, a site I hadn’t known about before an e-mail from the AVGN (who, by the way, you should vote for), is holding a Twitter- and Facebook-based viral version of their annual Web Awards. I’m not making a serious bid on the closing night for nominations, but I think it would be nice for publicity, [...]
In the brief pauses I’ve allowed myself between self-kickings, I have been sifting through piles and piles of newly-discovered XML gold and using what I find to great effect in Panzer Dragooned. I’ve got a lot of great ideas for this one, provided I can make the recordings happen. It’s ON now. On a somewhat [...]
Well, I brought home my refurbished DVD recorder today. This model, although branded Magnavox on the inside, is made by a company called Funai on the inside, which I understand to be very good for this class. Now, I’m not sure if this is cause for alarm, but when I run the game through the [...]
Hey hey HEY! Some new stuff’s on the way, I swear. I just polished off an assignment, and I have one more mid-term tomorrow, then I should be able to dedicate a fitting amount of time and energy to the next episode of Problem Gamer. No one is responding to MY responses to THEIR Classified [...]
It turns out that Windows Movie Maker, which I’ve always been casting as the bane of my existence, could be the best thing I’ve ever been given for free. This unassuming lil’ piece of software has the functionality for custom transitions and effects when fed simple XML files, a fact of which I have been [...]
People know the rail- or corridor-shooter genre thanks largely to Star Fox 64 and similarly-popular games.

It could also be viewed as a kind of technical compromise: [...]
(Dispel your sadness, folks! Okamiden has been announced for the Nintendo DS! (Yes, I’m a bit slow to catch on to these things.) I don’t know how they’re going to pull it off, what with the dissolution of Clover, but let’s hope Capcom let some of those people stick around… Now, on to Part 2 [...]
I should like to take this lull in my posting activity to make a few announcements. First, I would like to thank recent donor CidMcTab (a.k.a. Casey Robinson)–thanks Casey! I’d also like to point out that donors are now given the top spot on the About page. Now, I might be reading it all wrong, [...]
Well, here’s a little update. I’m hoping to do my next videos on the Panzer Dragoon series, love of my 32-bit gaming life. I’d like to immortalize my adoration for these rail-shooters (and one very special RPG) as best I can, so I’m looking into purchasing a DVD Recorder. Unfortunately, I could not have fathomed [...]
