Rock Out With Your Cart Out 92 – Smash Court Tennis: Pro Tournament (Playstation 2)
I’m not going to sit here and try to explain or justify why I picked this one. Just listen to the episode and you’ll understand. It’s a rather great example of what I think of when thinking about music that sort of personifies the PS2 in my mind. Rock? Jazz fusion? A little prog rock? […]
Rock Out With Your Cart Out Dream Event 32
CLICK HERE FOR THE LINK TO THE EPISODE! Twice a month, I find the games that came out that half of the month in five year increments and pick out music from those games for a really long episode. For this episode, we’re looking at the games that came out in the first half of […]
Multimedia Failure 45 – Forbidden Siren
This week, we’re watching what might be the movie with the most unrealized potential, Forbidden Siren. There’s a good movie (or two, or three) in here somewhere, but what’s here serves as an adequate mess at its best. If you’re new here, we’re throwing in our bonus segment at the end that’s normally reserved for […]
Multimedia Failure 29 – Sakura Wars: The Movie (with Josh Carpenter)
Jason Arriola and Vanessa Cahill are joined by Josh Carpenter from RPGamer this week to watch Sakura Wars: The Movie. Neither Vanessa or Jason had any familiarity with anything Sakura Wars, so Jason roped in the closest thing he knew to a ringer to help fill in the blanks as to what exactly the hell is […]
Harvey Birdman Review
Platforms: Playstation 2, PSP (reviewed), and Wii It’s a little strange for me to think of Harvey Birdman as retro, but this game came out in 2008. 2008! The Wii and PSP were still current platforms back then. While it might seem an odd choice to kick off this endeavor, I felt like playing an Ace Attorney […]
The Last Guardian Is Actually Going To Come Out!
Here’s something I never thought I’d get to write… The Last Guardian is real and it’s coming in just a few months! October 25th, to be more precise about the release date. Sony released a new trailer for The Last Guardian at its E3 press conference earlier this week. At the end of the trailer the release date was […]
Final Fantasy XII Comparison Video
Yesterday, Square Enix announced Final Fantasy XII: The Zodiac Age, a remastering of Final Fantasy XII, will be coming out in 2017 for the Playstation 4. They gave us a trailer and some screenshots that you can check out in my previous post about the Final Fantasy XII: The Zodiac Age. Well, YouTube user Cycu1 upload a video comparing some of the […]
Psychonauts Coming to PS4
Double Fine announced that the original Pyschonauts is coming to the Playstation 4. While they did give the timeframe of some time in spring of 2016, they did not announce a specific release date for it. Psychonauts was originally released on the Playstation 2 and Xbox, faring fairly well critically, but more or less bombed financially, selling […]
That Time Dragon Quest VIII Brought Video Games Back To My Life
While I often give a sickening amount of love to The Legend of Zelda as my favorite game series and, more recently, gush about my love of Mass Effect despite the roleplaying portion of it having gone away, there is another series that only recently found its way into my heart. You see, a few […]
The Devil is in the Details
I was recently looking for a new lock screen and background for my phone and decided I wanted to go with a Street Fighter theme. I typed in “Ken vs Ryu wallpaper” into Google, hit images, and scrolled through hundreds of images that came up. The one that ended up as my lock screen was […]
