The RPG Cape

Wednesday, December 10th, 2008 | Games, Miscellaneous, Pictures | 10 Comments

For lack of anything better, I bring you this MYSTERIOUS ENIGMA OF ODDNESS. A sort of “Bermuda Triangle” type thing of RPGs. In Star Ocean, this is used for when they open a time gate to jump back to their own time. I think this is why it shows up in Chrono Trigger; the disturbance in the time-space discombobulatorization caused a wormhole of purple butt magnitude and leaked into t... Read More >>>

Super Famicom Games

I was looking through some old pictures from when I lived in Japan for a short time and came across this one of my Super Famicom collection. I don’t own any of them anymore (didn’t have a job lined up right out of college ) but this pic really takes me back. What’s neat is that this all probably cost me less than $100 total. When I was in Japan, I had almost no extra spending m... Read More >>>

Dammit, Japan

For some reason, the Japanese premiere of “Vantage Point” had a number of lame celebrities… and then some weird Obama and Hillary lookalikes. Obama’s clone looks pretty similar, but I dunno about the Hillary one. I love how the lady here did that crazy face that Hillary’s now infamous for though More pics here ... Read More >>>

Noooo! Stop, Mr. Rogers!

A few years back, during a mini-con, a couple of us decided to watch Mr. Rogers for some reason. Unfortunately for us, it was the creepiest one ever, full of minutes-long smiling shower scenes and nearly-nude Mr. Rogers soaping up. Aaaaaaaa Then, later on in the episode, we get to see him rinse off yet again YOU CAN’T UNSEE IT NOW ... Read More >>>
