    What Games Are You Playing?

    I've been playing a stupid amount of different titles recently, making it hard to actually complete anything... Astral Chain - I finally went back to this one recently, and i don't honestly know why i didn't get the time in before to play it. This is stupidly good fun. Love the visual style of...

    Retro Mecha Podcast - Episode 16 'Macross Retrospective Part 4'

    Interestingly, i didn't mind Macross Zero, but i've not been able to really dive into the rest of the series that have come before to give a fair judgement in comparison. I really liked Frontier, and the episode that put focus on Zero was good(was my excuse to check it out after). I really wish...

    Simulwatch Planning Thread - Suggest & Discuss

    Firstly, i'm okay either way with Tokyo Godfathers, i bizarrely don't own it so i wouldn't be fully against leaving it out, purely on the basis i can't watch it. But agree it does have that christmas vibe which suits it better to that season over July. Just a thought, i know he was only on...

    Simulwatch Planning Thread - Suggest & Discuss

    I'd be quite happy with this too honestly, it's a good way to balance it out and given some of my later hours, i would get an extra day to catch up on episodes during the week, where i'm most likely to miss something. so yeah, thumbs up from me

    The Games You've Finished This Year

    Game #24: Nioh(PS4) - Took me a good while to get this one down, but man was it satisfying. After a while you get to the point where you are confident in your dodge, dash, attack routine that it becomes easy to beat some of the bosses, and the regular enemies become the main problem. Beat this...

    SLA Edinburgh 2019 Line-up

    Not sure it would be Millenium Actress with it being at least UK premiere, but i guess it would depend on if it was every shown theatrically here or anywhere else. Hello World at least hasn't been.

    What Games Are You Playing?

    Working through one of my favourite JRPGs now -Breath of Fire - now that the SNES option is up on nintendo online. It suffers from the 90s translation issues but it's so damned good.

    SLA Edinburgh 2019 Line-up

    My current debate is the following: Do i go and see Promare on Saturday to celebrate 10 years of SLA, and 10 years i've been at the event, and miss two films(i have a sneaky feeling i know what the mystery film is), or do i see the two films and see Promare on Monday. It may seem straight...

    SLA Edinburgh 2019 Line-up

    There will be a few fresh faces waiting to see Budori and i can only imagine they will get it once they leave the cinema. I actually completely forgot Hana & Alice got that level of recognition, but glad it did. It was a nice film. Was going to mention Night is Short, considering it was voted...

    The Games You've Finished This Year

    It was fun! I played all of the originals way back in the day and so on, so more groovitron was welcome. Sheepinator was great to have back too, but i liked the chicken ray a little more..... - my only gripe is that they cut back a lot of the original game for this, so it feels definitely like a...

    SLA Edinburgh 2019 Line-up

    Hi-Evo Anemone is meant to be pretty decent, and i'm quite happy they brought it in if so, it's meant to be a lot different to the first film so i can see it working. Geass is absolutely fine to be there, i just will probably pass as i don't like the trilogy storyline. Looking at the rest of...

    The Games You've Finished This Year

    Most recent game i beat was Ratchet & Clank(PS4) - which brought my total up to 21 this year so far. A bit slower than i had anticipated, still on track to complete minimum 30, but i really wanted to hit that 52...Hopefully i can still get a lot more completions this week with it being my...

    The Games You've Finished This Year

    2018 had me finish 24 games. I wish i could run through them all now since i stupidly forgot to note them all down, but there was so many gems last year, i was able to get through a lot more than i originally expected. Highlights for me where Spiderman(PS4), Furi(PC), Octopath Traveller(Switch)...

    Eureka Seven Hi-Evolution 1 Review

    You can, but it's not going to feel like watching the series matters too much. They change some of the ideas behind the story it covers too with Ray and Charles. Most of the time it feels like it jumps about too much that you only just get an idea of what is meant to be going on. You'll be able...

    Eureka Seven Hi-Evolution 1 Review

    Eureka Seven Hi-Evolution Film 1 has a lot going for it with us finally getting the prologue to it all: the events of "The Summer of Love". And while this segment is done very well, the rest of the film, with its lack of coherent storytelling hurts what could have been something special. It has...
