Treasure's 30th Anniversary - My Predictions

Japanese game developer Treasure just had its 30th anniversary on June 19th. They've announced that they are releasing some sort of "highly requested title". This will be their first game since 2014's Gaist Crusher God. What could it be?

My first guess is that the new title will be a Gunstar Heroes game. I actually don't have a particularly strong connection with Treasure, but Gunstar Heroes seems to be the fan-favorite. Another strong contender is Ikaruga. Either of these is a likely guess! My personal favorite Treasure game is Mischief Makers, so I'd love to see another one of those. Also, my first Treasure game was the relatively obscure Light Crusader, which was also the first RPG I ever played. Lastly, Sin & Punishment has recently received some new eyes on it thanks to being a part of the Nintendo Switch Expansion Pack. This is another game I really like by them, though it's one I've only played in recent years!

Based on the tweet from Treasure themselves, there is no real info here, so we will really have to wait and see. It's possible this could even just be a remaster of sorts instead of an entirely new game. I'll be fine with anything that isn't Wario World!

PlayStation Basement #92 - Runabout 2

This review was originally published on the  Console Purist  Facebook group on May 30th, 2020. Another week, another PlayStation Basement! PlayStation Basement is a weekly review of games for the original PlayStation that are somewhat obscure, unusual, or unknown. Games are rated Good, Bad, or Neutral to emphasize the review itself. Now, let’s go! Today we return to the world of  Runabout  (or  Felony 11-79 ) with  Runabout 2 . This game was released on November 18th, 1999 in Japan and May 19th, 2000 in North America making the 20th anniversary just eleven days ago. It was also published in Europe in February of 2003 and was re-released as a budget title in Japan in November of 2000. Like the first game, this title stars an expert agent who operates via vehicle to steal or retrieve treasures. This game, his motives seem more just compared with thefts he committed for a greedy individual in the first title. This game also has its share of supernatural conspi...

The Convention Dimension: 3 Rivers Comicon

DISCLAIMER: I received a press pass to attend this event. The opinions here are still mine. Also, please consider reading this brief article about my various illnesses and such over the last several months. This article is very late, but things have been difficult. Originally, I had also planned to publish these pfotos to Instagram, again, in a more timely manner. Here we are though! At the beginning of June, I attended 3 Rivers Comicon at the David L. Lawrence Convention Center in downtown Pittsburgh. I was surprised to see this event at the convention center, as I couldn't recall seeing it advertised in years past (I later heard that it was held at the Century III and Waterfront Malls in previous years). American comic book stuff is really not a huge thing on my radar, so it's not a surprise that I missed out on the earlier events. My friend Tyler wanted to check out this convention, so I decided to check it out as well. Anyway, 3 Rivers Comicon is held by local chain New Di...

PlayStation Basement #46 - PD Ultraman Invader

This review was originally published on the  Console Purist  Facebook group on July 13th, 2019. Today is Saturday, and it is time for everyone’s favorite, the PlayStation Basement! PlayStation Basement appears every week with a review of an odd or obscure game for the original PlayStation. Games are rated Good, Bad, or Neutral. Shuwatch! July 10 th is Ultraman Day all around the cosmos, so this week we’ll take a look at an early game that never left Japan – PD Ultraman Invader . This game is Space Invaders with Ultraman characters, though the original Space Invaders is also included. I believe that the “PD” means “parody deformed” (like the SD for “super deformed”), as this is a comedic crossover of Ultraman characters. PD Ultraman Invader was released December 22 nd , 1995 by Bandai. Though I had been interested in Ultraman since around when this game was released, I did not know what it was until later. I have some little, rubber finger puppets of va...
