Must agree with Badger here. I personally think Spirited Away is one of Ghibli's weaker films. It's also one of their most inaccessable for a western audience - I know people that have tried to watch it but just couldn't understand it, because of the large cultural references. But it I think...

Too many bishies, not enough mechs! To alleviate this, I present to you the Gouf custom :)

Apparently, it does exist - or at least, it did in 2003. I'm not sure how far they got with it -I have seen comic sites selling English versions up to vol 18- but the official site hasn't been updated in two years. I've heard a good many things about it, and the mecha designs look sweet as, so...

http://www005.upp.so-net.ne.jp/doraneko-21/gallery/ghiblies/ghiblies.html No, it's not a real game, and never will be. But if it was, I'd import it in an instant. :) Who'd you pick?

Well written, informative, and not a tentacle in sight... what the hell? It seems the British media is finally beginning to take anime seriously. It's intersting how different Ghiblis and Disneys business sensibilities are. Right now it seems Disney are only out to make a quick buck, while...

That's assuming we even get it. No European release has ever been confirmed, and while this gives me a little hope that we may see it eventually, Square have been notoriously reluctant to release titles here in the past, much to everyones exasperation. They'd be fools not to, though - FFVII...

Not interested. For all its power and sexiness, there's still only one killer title that truly interests me, and one game alone doesn't warrant a full system. It may be able to play movies and music, but I don't care for either - I've got an mp3 player, and can't see the attraction of paying the...

You did ask. Besides, everyone knows that only happens in Korea :P

I'm the same actually (well, I'm not sure I'd use the word sexy), I saw the old mangled FoxKids version enough that the voices just sort of stuck. It's not the most god-awful dub ever devised, so give it a shot, it may just grow on ya. As for the manga, there are two different versions: an...

That's pretty good, demonj. At first I thought it was a bit too grey, but it actually works pretty well. The text blends nicely too, not too big and an appropriate colour. Only real criticism I'd have is that the clouds look a bit patchy, especially towards the upper-left area, but that may have...

Longest gaming session: 12 hours, non-stop, playing Icewind Dale. In a fit of madness, a couple of friends and I decided to give the co-op game a try, so we rolled up some characters and got started around 6pm. Next thing we knew, the sun was up and we were all ravenous. We'd never done that...

It's an interesting way to give an unknown product attention, certainly. It may not be entirely a bad thing - as long as they behave themselves and only do it for the really obscure ones nobody's going to miss, and leave the sub track completely intact, I don't really have a problem with it. ANN...

He's a fat plumber! He's proof that you don't need to be beautiful to succeed in life. He's got a princess for a girlfriend, is a star of no less than three sports, and is a movie star! He's an inspiration to us all. :D The SMB3 speedrun can be found here.

I don't think anyone here doubts the hard work put into dubbing projects. I think what threw everyone was the way it was reported to be a British dub, and with so little information available it's only natural that some assumptions were going to be made and opinions formed. I certainly don't...

The Vision of Escaflowne is an excellent series, combining fantasy, mecha, romance and everything inbetween. A great cast, giant medieval robots, an excellent story, wonderful music... it's got pretty much everything going for it. It's highly recommended by pretty much everyone that's seen it...

I use Adobe Photoshop. It's pretty much the industry standard for image manipulation and editing, but it's fairly expensive. A cheaper option would be Painshop Pro. It's often referred to as a poor mans Photoshop, because it'll do a lot of the same stuff, but isn't quite as powerful. Another one...

As for my own work, here's a couple of Gundam SEED ones I did a while ago, but recently touched up. Looking back, I wasn't happy with them at all, and felt they were far too cluttered. Since I went back to them and cleared out a lot of the unecessary crap, I'm much happier. Still not completely...

So ya wanna make wallpapers? Need some inspiration or ideas? Want feedback on something you've been working on? Or do ya got a request? This is the place for it. Share your works, comment on others, point out some helpful tutorials or galleries you like. They don't even have to be anime, the aim...

He was called Mario in the Game&Watch games, and contrary to my earlier statement, it was in them that he was first named, a year before SMB came out in arcades. Whoops. Speakin of SMB3, did anyone see that speedrun where the guy finished the game in about 12mins? Impressive stuff.

Actually, he wasn't called Mario that was in Donkey Kong - he was Jumpman. ;) He first appeared as Mario in Super Mario Bros on the NES - which still predated Sonic by about six years.
