The last Settlers game I played was Settlers 2 long ago. I remember playing the demo many times just like I did with the more recent, The Settlers 7: The Path to a Kingdom. I thought it was the full game because it lasted for so long! It seems the series have tried to go through many different routes since the second game. In the sixth, you...
After 4 years since the sequel's cliff hangar, we finally get to learn what happened to Brian Basco in this third instalment of the Runaway adventure game series, Runaway - A Twist of Fate. He is accused of murder and is sent to the mental hospital of Happy Dale due to the possibility that he's crazy. However, he manages to escape and now...
Got my replacement for my broken hard drive today from Seagate. Was a bit worried it was lost because I missed out the zip code (postcode in the UK). I called up their support line to check after I received a dispatch e-mail that was missing a tracking code. They reassured me that their technical department responsible for diagnosing the...
The seventh (and last?) Japanese trailer for Trauma Team is up yet it doesn't shed any more light on what the killer disease is this time. It does show that whatever it is, it causes a lot of internal hemorrhaging. Maybe beyond Class IV? It also hints the protagonist CR-S01's father maybe behind it all and have signed a pact with evil. On...
There's no Uniqlo stores here in Scotland as far as I'm aware but for those of you Eva fans that do have access to one, you might want to watch out for these Eva Rebuild movie themed t-shirts due out in the second half of May. This should be better than going for the bootleg printed t-shirts that come off in a few washes ^^; Those of you in the UK...
It appears Falcom are accepting applications for anyone who'd like to have a role voice acting in their fourth "Sora no Kiseki" sequel, "Zero no Kiseki". Applications began on Monday shortly after they announced the game and will be open until May 31st. The application procedure is simple - Pick one of the shown character sprites on...
Gainax is really pushing the Evangelion 2.22 marketing at full force with burgers and a fully themed convenience store. It might make sense considering how the simultaneous Blu-ray and DVD limited edition releases are out next month in Japan. Then again, the very first movie's DVD LE release still sold out last time without this much...
Originally a visual novel game for the Xbox 360 released back in October 2009, "Steins Gate" will be making its way to the PC this July 30th (updated to August 28th due to quality issues) with new event illustrations added. This is the second game produced by a collaboration between 5pb and Nitro+, the first being ChaosHead...
Ken wrote a short post about the differences of public transport usage between Australia and Japan. I ended up writing a long comment so I thought I would write down my own thoughts and experiences here too ^^; He mentions no one tends to queue for the bus in Australia whereas in Japan, there are always orderly queues. In Scotland here, no...
Welcome to my site's humble new layout! So, how many of you managed to get the references I had during maintenance? For those of you that missed it, the message was... The site is currently going under mass operation.
Hopefully it'll be back up before the dark hour ends. Everything went fairly smoothly apart from a few hiccups from the...
