Column: Welcome to the GameSetWatch Comic - ‘Welcome to the Castlevania’
Category: Comic: The GameSetWatch Comic | 
Leave a Comment
[’Welcome to the GameSetWatch Comic’ is, once again, a weekly comic by Jonathan “Persona” Kim about the continuing adventures of our society, cultural postdialectic theory, and video games.]
This latest GameSetWatch Comic deals with the classic, slightly mangled speechifying of Castlevania: Symphony Of The Night - and presumably what happened in the version we didn’t see […]

Category: Wii Xbox 360 Playstation 3 | Leave a Comment
Last week, Rare Studios very kindly invited me to their secret headquarters in the rain-soaked Midlands to try my hand at the Nintendo DS version of the critically acclaimed Viva Piñata. Viva Piñata: Pocket Paradise takes the cheerful-yet-sinister gardening simulation of the Xbox 360 title and shrinks it down onto Nintendo’s handheld for (hopefully) a […]

Category: Wii Xbox 360 Playstation 3 | Leave a Comment
Hey, you know those wacky new Nintendo Mii’s that everyone (in 2007) is talking about?

Category: Wii Xbox 360 Playstation 3 | Leave a Comment

Rumortoid: Mega Man 9 in the works? Spacecat tells all
Category: Wii Xbox 360 Playstation 3 | Leave a Comment
Look, I drink…
… and from time to time I do a little bit of Matlocking. I may not be the best source for rumors, especially considering that I have never ever been correct on anything. However, I am not the source. Spacecat is someone I met during my days as a unicorn wrangler. He travels through time […]
