Behind The Joke: Appule
Regular fans of Daizenshuu EX no doubt have heard us drop Appule’s name in semi-sarcastic and humorous ways. It has grown into something of an “in-joke” over the years — it is funny enough on its own (“lolz random character”), but the way in which the joke continued to build upon itself adds a little…

Daizenshuu EX Removed From YouTube
I was both anticipating (expecting, really) and dreading this day — today was the day that the “daizex” YouTube account was removed due to “copyright infringement”.

Japanese DBZ Video Game Hilarity
Every so often I like to just kick back and read through all of the various boxes and instruction books for my old, Japanese DragonBall video games.

“Final Fantasy” (Yeah, That First Game!) Design Choices
So I finished up Chrono Trigger about a week ago. I have written at length about it already, and am wavering on whether or not I want to write any kind of “final thoughts” on the game. I do not have much more to add to the conversation, really — nothing particularly blew me away…

Seven Things That Have Blown Me Away In The Second 10 Hours Of “Chrono Trigger”
I was very concerned as I crossed the 10-hour mark in Chrono Trigger. Those first ten hours were amazingly good on so many different levels. The game had actually managed to deliver everything I wanted and anticipated. I loved the characters, the story, and all of the artistic elements that brought the package together. I…
