• Problem Solved: Photoshop Crashes

    So I randomly started having an issue on my work computer this week where Adobe Photoshop CS3 would crash each and every time, without fail, when I tried to open or create more than one image at time. Needless to say, this is slightly frustrating when you live inside these types of programs and need…

  • Town Names In RPGs

    I figured it out! I know what my biggest problem with RPGs is; despite wanting to love them so much and continue picking them up time and time again, I have so many issues! Town names! I have a hard enough time remembering all of the character names (something I’ve always had a problem with…

  • Video Game Club: “Final Fantasy VI” Thoughts #2

    I just got a chance to play another ~45 minutes or so in Final Fantasy VI, and wanted to give everyone an update on my thoughts. Judging from the comments when I last talked about the game, a lot of you are interested in (and currently are!) playing along with the game, too, and want…

  • “Secret of Mana” on Virtual Console

    Just because a new podcast episode came out yesterday, it doesn’t mean that I can’t keep writing blog entries! I’m still here for another couple days! We heard about it hitting the Japanese Virtual Console last month, so we knew it was on its way. That doesn’t change the fact that a SquaresoftEnix game coming…

  • Conversation 004: What’s Going On Right Now & An Old Discussion About Video Game Magazines and Import Game Coverage

    It’s that time of the month, again! We’re pretty much on-schedule, and here to hit you back with another podcast episode. Since I’m getting married next week, and therefore all parties involved are pretty busy right now and will be out of town (Hell, Jeff’s down in Virginia as I type this for AnimeUSA), we…

  • Six Weeks Pokemon Free

    I can’t believe that it’s been six weeks since I popped Final Fantasy VI into Slot 2 of my Nintendo DS, effectively putting an end to my current playing of Pokemon. Since then, I have loaded up not a single Pokemon game for GBA, DS, WiiWare… anything. It’s been perfectly wonderful. To briefly recap, I…

  • “LittleBigPlanet” Beta

    Managed to get myself a beta key for LittleBigPlanet the other day thanks to the USA Today giveaway (which required nothing more than sending an e-mail). I’m only just now getting around to downloading it, and it’s only good through the weekend… so I don’t have a whole lot of time with it! I’ve already…

  • Thank goodness I can disconnect!

    So I had finished editing some stuff and wanted to burn it off to CD-R for transferring around. Don’t have Nero installed on this computer, and turns out I don’t really have anything installed over here for advanced burning. OK, no problem. I’ll just go grab CDBurnerXP, since I don’t need anything all that special.…

  • Top 10 Couch Songs In “Rock Band”

    While this is a Top 10 list, it’s not part of a regular episode, so I won’t toss it over with the rest of the more formal Top 10 lists. This is instead intended to just be a fun little thing to put out there, and to coax Jeff and Andrew into making their own…

  • Define: “Couch”

    This is something I wrote elsewhere back in April 2008. I think it makes sense to re-post it here. Seriously, internet. You using the word “emo” is getting a little old. How about you pick another musical genre/descriptor at random and use it completely wrong for a few years? Maybe “Schlager“? Yeah, every time someone’s…

Got any book recommendations?
