“Daizenshuu EX” In The Media
OK, so “media” is somewhat laughable when you consider the source this is coming out of, but let’s be honest… seeing your site mentioned in print, no matter what that print form may be, is a pretty awesome thing. We are cleaning out a few things in the apartment as we get ready to eventually…

They Just Don’t Get It (Let Me Play My Music!)
IGN has put up an interview with Paul Gadbois, producer at Beedox, the company responsible for developing Guitar Hero Greatest Hits in conjunction with Activision. This “new” game is not really a “new” game; think of it as a compilation disc of songs from previous games. That sounds like a fantastic idea in theory, especially…

MMOWTF
So I saw via John Davison’s Twitter feed that What They Play was giving away beta keys for Ether Saga Online, a free-to-play MMO based on Journey to the West. If you know anything about me, the latter-most part of that description would be enough to get me to sign up. I downloaded and installed…

“Street Fighter IV”: Seth Can Shove It
Last night, the wife and I spent over an hour (we didn’t keep track of when exactly we began, but I saw it pass the 70 minute mark) trying to beat Seth with Zangief… with it set to one-round fights on “Easiest”. Andrew alerted me via Twitter that there may be some type of glitch…

How I Began Street Fighting
With Street Fighter IV out this week, those that follow along here on the site and podcast should (rightfully so) expect a lot of talk about it coming your way. Before I even get to talking about the new game, I thought it might be interesting to take a look back and figure out just…

Lack Of (Modern) Literacy On YouTube
The title should come as absolutely no surprise, but I’ve rofled enough to myself in the last couple of minutes that I figured I would share these with you. No, this is not a follow-up to my viewpoints on my own feedback/responses/criticism on YouTube, so don’t worry that I’m bombarding you with more of that…

Xbox Live Experience: Classic “TMNT” With Friends
Yesterday, our buddy Kevin coordinated a cross-country gaming date for the evening over Twitter. Myself, Andrew, Kevin, and our buddy Ryan all joined up for a little play-through of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles classic arcade game over Xbox Live (10:30 pm eastern time, 7:30 pm western time). Seems like an easy enough recipe for…

Conversation 006: We’re Back With A Discussion Of The Games We Played In 2008
Surprise, surprise! The three of us got together this weekend and recorded episode six of the show, had a blast doing it, and are extremely happy to bring it to you so quickly. We are easing our way back into a normal schedule, and while we don’t have a standard Top 10 list this episode……

Top 10 PS2 Games I Own And Have Never Played
I promised this way back on episode two of the podcast, and haven’t gotten around to tossing it together until today. I have finally put up my “Top 10 PS2 Games I Own And Have Never Played” over in the Top 10 Games section. I was thinking about also doing a similar list for the…

Search Referrals Across The World
Following up a little bit on my post about rankings on Google a little bit, I just wanted to share another behind-the-scenes doo-diddy with Daizenshuu EX. I have always touted the site as a “global fandom” resource. The Japanese version of the DragonBall series is the sole version that can be (and is) appreciated throughout…
