Like rhythm games that are played using plastic instruments? Then you might like this. This is Frets on Fire, a free, open-source rhythm game where you can play pretty much any song ever made (if you can find it/make it). Did I mention it’s FREE? It’s basically a Rock Band/Guitar Hero clone. But how does it REALLY hold up to the masters of plastic instrument rhythm games?

This game is amazing. So much, in fact, that I thought I should post my own little review here.

For those who don’t know, Vampire the Masquerade was a vampire paper-and-pen RPG by Whitewolf. It was recently replaced with a new system called Vampire: the Requiem. Anyway, VtM was around for ages (probably not as long as D&D, but close). It’s set in modern day and basically there’s 7 vampire clans who have to adhere to certain rules.

Mike Tyson’s Punch Out, later renamed to just Punch Out, and Super Punch out were some of the most memorable games on the NES and SNES respectively. They had quirky characters and were quite challenging, with each fighter having their own strategy to take them down. But how does the newly released Punch Out for the Wii hold up? Let’s take a look.

Like painfully slow turn-based strategy games with tons of story like Final Fantasy Tactics? Like Bleach? Then you might enjoy Bleach, the Third Phantom for the Nintendo DS.

What a mouth full!

Okay, so this video is a Japanese guy (calling himself “Steve”) who is probably drunk playing Mario Land. As he’s playing Mario Land he rambles in broken/hard to understand English. This doesn’t sound all that funny but watch the video. I laughed so hard.

Updates

So it has come to my attention that some lame script kiddies decided to deface my website. While this doesn’t say too many positive things about WordPress’ security, it says even less about the idiots who exploit it. I mean, really.

Work on Kaiou 7.6 Has Begun

I’ve begun work on Kaiou 7.6, finally after quite a bit of time. The first thing I’m working on is adding the (long-needed) Monster Types.
