Discoveing 'Sony Bank' is a thing + Playstation is to have its very own digital currency I would say is surprising news, if not for endless corporate greed being more a given at this moment in time. Age verification also became a do or don't thing for me today, in other news: can no longer see...

If CR are indeed only going to be selling 'convention merchandise' to their MAGA subbers going forward, suppose it has been heading in this direction for awhile; what with them releasing less and less physically vs their streaming line-up and removing low sale / niche releases etc. The saddest...

Been playing Daxter, which originally came out way back when in 2006 on the PSP. Never played it as kid as never owned a PSP, and initially quit Jak & Daxter after Jak 2 angered me greatly. But now it's on the PS5 - in 4k, no less - so yyy not~ 'Tis kinda neato to play now; so long removed...

Hi again, Deme~ Boy's Abyss has something of an issue I didn't fully take note of 'till re-reading the earlier volumes, after owning and my friend pointed it out: the 'unhinging' compared to adabana is the result of its razor sharp teen edge approach to the serious issues it presents. Like...

Going slightly off topic but the problem with the viewing journal thread (which I shall lazily toss in here, in memory of Ayase's diplomacy, which Otomo can attest is second only to my own) is less the occasional non-anime mention, and more the thread itself. That and the user that slays dragons...

Saw that you posted a review for v3 the other day. Figured I'd give it a gander after finishing the book with my bff (codename: 'F'). adabanana is, after all, a story about two bffs... although they be school girls and we most certainly are not. But I digress~ 'Twas interesting reading your...

Ah, so Veronica on the PS3 is similar to the Jak trilogy, which was redone with true widescreen 720P (backgrond textures were changed iirc). A pity 'tis £15.99 + the remake coming but would be good to own the best version. Maybelline. Recently played the Jak PS2 emulations on the PS5, and was...

I do believe ceefax has me on a list of some kind (I know not why~), or else isn't too fond of meee, but this is a great resource to track physical games media that do/don't allow for games to be played without internet intervention. I only discovered it today, but still: sharing is caring...

...I had no idea this was a thing, already--assumed it surely another sign of the imminent digi-only gaming apocalypse (Ubi are surely one of the four horsemen), following on from key-cards. Ubisoft much like Nintendo were upfront about it tbf, announcing it back in April... but I remained...

Some news kindasorta tying into the depressing Sony 'NO MORE DIKS!' ting: received Black Flag Resync/dux and noticed something most peculiar: 'internet required to install thine game', hidden away at the bottom of the cover, all stealthy-like. Such arrogance on Ubisoft's part, to think that they...

Well, that's how it goes when niche hobbies go mainstream: loyalty only counts for anything whatsoever when the scale is sooo small that you are still able to be perceived as a person, as opposed to a number that doesn't bring in big numbers in-turn. What the other 🐈 user sed. There is...

It could be I'm projecting my '...' usage onto you, paired with the 30x£150 part/your HellCat posts, but I do sense some underlying frustration that Gundam is now so...popular, peering through thine internet 'phone voice'. Not that I'm knocking you for that...if so. 'Tis a weirdo thing: being...

It skipped my brain that AD Police and Bubblegum share the same universe. Granted, I'm no cyberpunk anime afficiando, yet I do recall two things Bubblegum: all-girl, moe before moe, crime fighters (with one that sings about hurricanes) + body form fitting attire. Where as AD only gore/sex/grim...

Had to check my notes to rejog me noggin' regarding AD Police, and this is the insight old/younger meeee had to share (ima assume each sentence covers one ep). Either that or 'tis a haiku. --Why it'd be bad to sex robots: they'd get passionate and kill --Why it'd be bad to say sex sucks with a...

In fairness to Crane, I've always been deeply suspicious of men called Vic: my friend's dad was a Vic, as a kid, and I had a catchy nickname for him. He was a creep. Ancedotal, of course, so take this with a pinch of 🧂. Also, never been too fond of Ed, either: too much offa Napoleon complex. I'm...
