Kanzenshuu Reflections in Light of Giant Bomb’s Upcoming Transitional Period
I’ve always been a pretty casual “fan” of Giant Bomb: primarily a Bombcast (and later Beastcast) listener, and rarely a viewer of any video content. That… probably sounds bizarre considering what their primary output is, but I guess I’ve just always been a text-and-audio person, even when it comes to commentary on a visual medium.…

Reviving the Ol’ Personal Blog
Is this blog alive again? Who can really say? Truth be told, I let it get so out of date that it got infected, so I had to just trash the whole install and start fresh. In the process, I was backing up a few things, dug up a few other things, and remembered that…

Consolidating Old Websites
Whoops, better not let two years go by without posting something on a personal site that no-one actually views. (Well, that’s not true. My “WHAT IS A CANNON” and Bardock posts actually still get lots of traffic.) Anyway, I’m just consolidating things over here. There’s no “front page” anymore on vegettoex.com and vgconvos.com will soon just resolve…

Some Extra Funny Images
So late last month I wrote something called “The Great Canonical Debate” (it was pretty good; you should go read it). I wanted to include some type of moderately-snarky image of some type of god handing down a daizenshuu to go along with the section about how there is no officially-declared canon to the franchise,…

No Registration Needed! Need To Be Registered!
I saw this posted up at the library today and chuckled quite a bit: What I’m pretty sure they are saying is that there is no extra registration necessary for their little Guitar Hero competition, but anyone who wants to complete must already be a pre-existing, registered member of their “Summer Reading” program. What are…

What Makes A Good Blog Entry?
I ask this question both of myself (to try and answer in an actual blog post… how fascinating!), and also of you all, dear readers. What does make a blog entry “good”…? One thing to keep in mind is that I am not talking about a “blog” from a personal standpoint. This is work-work related…

Quick Plug: lo-fidelity episode 20
We typically don’t plug things on our other websites unless they warrant it, and this is one of those cases. Jeff and I do a bi-weekly podcast called lo-fidelity where we review music, discuss music, give a top five every week, etc. It’s a really good show, and I encourage all of you to check…

Top 10 PS2 Games I Own And Have Never Played
I promised this way back on episode two of the podcast, and haven’t gotten around to tossing it together until today. I have finally put up my “Top 10 PS2 Games I Own And Have Never Played” over in the Top 10 Games section. I was thinking about also doing a similar list for the…

General Thoughts and Updates
So apparently the Master System version of Sonic the Hedgehog 2 is available on Virtual Console today. As you may know, the Genesis/MegaDrive version is one of my favorite games of all time. If I understand correctly, the Master System “port” is a similar game, and has different level designs (but is still overall Sonic…
