Anyway, several years later the Minish Cap was released, and one of its many bizarre items was the Cane of Pacci, a throwback to the mysterious canes of previous games. This one, however, serves an entirely useless purpose, and... ple have noticed, I'd completely forgotten about dating the last few comics for 2008. That's fixed now.

One of the weird things about Earthbound – a game so full of... hings that this sentence is meaningless – is that they give you a super fun bicycle very early in the game, which Ness can only ride if he's the only person in the party. You then almost immediately get a

I recently played the original Fallout for the first time, and it was really cool! One thing I noticed, however, was the tendency of your NPC companions to graciously permadeath-sacrifice themselves to protect you (or, usually, for no reason at all). The worst offender of this was Dogmeat (the ancestor

Every level has the same music, and it's just one guitar riff over and over again. This would be very inconvenient if the game didn't have one of them fancy "make your own soundtrack" features, where you can upload .mp3s of your own crap to be p

I've said this before, but one of my favorite things that happens to media during localization is when the studio tries to pass it off as taking place in the United States when it very clearly does not. They got away with it pretty easily in the first Ace Attorney game, which just took place in "the city", b
