And, yeah so, it looks okay from first glance. It's hard to tell much from just an image, but I have some thoughts about it. For one, I really love Trigun, so I am excited for a new series. It's not clear to me if it is a remake or a new story. I am slightly worried about the art style and that we won't see Johnny Yong Bosch in the dub this time. The series is announced as being a CG show this time; that's not particularly unusual. Ever since I watched Godzilla: Planet of the Monsters, I have been really hesitant about CG stuff. The more recent Berserk series doesn't look very good either, though I haven't watched that. With Trigun Stampede, the colors are really nice with some great details too. The more I think about it, the more awesome I can see it being! Just, please, get most if not all of the original cast for the English dub!

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 #49 - RayStorm

This review was originally published on the Console Purist Facebook group on August 3rd, 2019. The initial review missed the paragraph about the game's sound design, but it has been re-added here. Good evening and welcome to another PlayStation Basement! PlayStation Basement runs every Saturday with a review of an obscure or odd game for PS1. I don't like numerical reviews too much, so the games are rated Good, Neutral, or Bad. Let's go! Thinking about the anniversary of Apollo 11, today we're talking about RayStorm (aka Layer Section II ), an epic shmup from Taito. A sequel of sorts to 1994's RayForce / Galactic Attack (the games share the same gameplay but have a seemingly unrelated storyline), RayStorm was released to arcades in 1996. It was ported to the PlayStation January, June, and September of 1997 in Japan, North America, and Europe respectively. The excellent Working Designs did the North American port under their Spaz label. RayStorm was also re...

The Slightly Fabricated Story of How Nintendo Conquered America

I finished a book called Super Mario: How Nintendo Conquered America at the end of February. I expected good things from it. I expected a breezy but analytical approach to Nintendo and Mario's history. I got something that sails with a heavy anchor and a damaged rudder. First things first: the cover art is pretty cool. It's minimal, but I like the blue color and the little Mario jumping above the title. It's like he can leap over any obstacle! Unfortunately, the text is not free of such things. At under 300 pages, Super Mario: How Nintendo Conquered America goes for a brief history of Nintendo through the years. Each chapter is themed around a console, peripheral, or major event. It was nice to see the whole history, from hanafuda to Wii, the latest console at the time of publishing, however, I wish that Jeff Ryan, the author, had covered a bit more topics and more thoroughly. Even adding a few pages to each chapter could have added a lot more inf...
