Happy Birthday, GUMI!

Megpoid Gumi- Circus (Birthday Tribute) One year ago, this very day, GUMI was released to the world. In the days leading up to her release, I didn’t have very high expectations for her.

Its mission was to travel to the nearby asteroid Itokawa, and bring back some samples of material. This would be the first time that we got our hands on some […]

Serial Experiments Lain

Present day, heh… Present time! HAHAHAHAHAH- When I started watching Serial Experiments Lain, I had absolutely no idea what to expect. I only barely glimpsed at the overview before starting. (I actually picked this one up because the name just sounds cool, and so is the cover art.) From the cover art, I thought this […]

Portal 2

Portal 2 Teaser Trailer Forget the YTT video I put up this morning. This is much more important. So yeah. Our first Portal 2 trailer! Looks spiffy, and GLaDOS is awesome as always. And the “surprise” is that Portal 2 is coming out on the PS3. Bah, some surprise. I really could not possibly care […]
