A good friend of mine knew how much I'd been eyeing this set and gifted me several of them. I'm so very thankful and was genuinely surprised. I need to strive for this level of generosity. #TMNT #GIJOE #Actionfigures #Figures

We've seen a couple of really awesome fighting games based on comic book properties lately, so here are five more universes I think could hold their own in the genre. - gametyrant.com/news/5-other...

You guys sing way better than I do. Also, I always love a good Salute Your Shorts reference. This book seems to have several good sections and just falls apart a little, as many do.

Wow, a Sharon, Lois, and Bram from The Elephant Show reference, don't get that every day. The Golden Girls porn joke, however, seems more like the normal speed.

You know, I really like the cover of this book, but the story didn't quite do it for me. I get why you guys didn't mind it; I just felt it was more of a comedy. That could be the voices.

BLACKWOOD is a game living in two worlds, and sadly, dropping the ball a bit in both. Read about how this great premise didn't quite nail the execution. - gametyrant.com/news/blackwo...

It's Saturday morning, an appropriate time to say goodbye to the best principal I ever had.

Since Marvel Tokon was a hit, I wanted to talk about a few other comic book universes that could use their own fighting games. I may get a little too creative with a couple of these, but I'd definitely play each one. - gametyrant.com/news/5-other...

I had a lot of thoughts on the new Resident Evil movie, breaking down what did and didn't work for me, but also working through a conversation that often pops up around these types of movies.

I wrote about BLACKWOOD, a game that reminds us that no amount of bullets or ambition guarantees a great experience. See where contract killing and DVD rentals converge and go wrong. - gametyrant.com/news/blackwo...

I'm just thankful they let me write another piece about Kindred: The Embraced; it needed to happen. Purchase your own, check out the preview, or share it so others can learn about this new publication.

I'll be appearing in Playtest Material, a new quarterly periodical covering tabletop roleplaying games. The first issue comes out in October, and they are currently running a subscription drive for those who wish to secure their copy or help support the journal. playtestmaterial.org/playtest-mat...

Check out issue #1 of Game Enjoyer magazine on remakes, remasters, and reboots. I wrote several pieces in this, and I think they turned out extremely well. It's available in digital and print, or if you just want to share the link around, I'd appreciate that too. www.magcloud.com/browse/issue...

I just listened to this episode (I'm a little behind) and enjoyed it, but I think I liked the book a lot more than you guys did. Still, I love hearing you two bash these bad parents.

I finally finished the big wrasslin' book.

Now that people have had a little time with the game, check out my thoughts on Onimusha: Way of the Sword. - www.theouterhaven.net/onimusha-way...

The Furious (2025) is a martial arts film with excellent fights, solid camera work, and decent characters. The colors are muted, like some scenes have an odd filter. The tone is strange, with serious subjects, then a couple of comedic moments like meleeing each other with bikes, and a brutal ending.

Romeo+Juliet (1996) is something we might dare call a classic, even if I remember my high school teacher burying it before the film. The visuals, soundtrack, and Mercutio are stunning in this presentation of Shakespeare, and it was great seeing it again after so long.

a young Renee Zellweger, and enough strangeness to keep people interested. The bad guy is from one of my favorite movies, Empire Records, so huge win. "If you gotta die, die good."
