Is that its install size? It’s crazy either way but I feel like I’ve seen downloads that were larger than the final install.

I never knew that Geoff was inspired by anything other than madness.

I was in a similar situation to the first guy several years ago. It’s not exactly analogous but, as a chubby white guy dating an attractive Korean girl, it’s close. When I visited her and her parents in Seoul, I never felt anything other than welcome. They were incredibly warm, accepting, and inquisitive. My knowledge…

Playing the “how hard can I kick myself for, once again, forgetting to cancel my FF14 subscription before I get dinged for another month I almost certainly won’t play” game.

It really was. I remember an interview somewhere a while back where the studio head expressed a desire to get back to it with the PS4 so I’m keeping my fingers crossed for a sequel.

Yakuza 5! I had resolved myself to get through the story and not get completely bogged down by sidequests so I could move on to more Yakuza. I’ve actually been playing it through the week and making good progress. That was before I got to the part where you play as Haruka and improve her idol skills. I am now fully…

Stupid sexy McCree

I’m glad I finally got around to finishing Mankind Divided earlier this year. Prior to that Steam would occasionally allocate and lock away a huge chunk from my SSD because of relatively tiny patches to the game.

hahaha Rebeckham...that’s pretty fucking good.

Ah! Thanks for that.

Is there any chance you’ll do a review for Gran Turismo’s new album, Sports? I’m definitely getting Forza first but I don’t think I’ve played GT since 4...or maybe even A-Spec...so I’m curious about how far it’s come. Plus I guess it’s about time I stop my quiet protest of the series over the lack of a sequel to…

They’re either going underground or they’re taking their trade to more friendly countries. A good Japanese tattoo artist could make bank just about anywhere they chose to settle.

I hope they’re successful with their appeal. Hopefully it leads to a not utterly batshit licensing process. I don’t remember if you covered it in your book but what, if any, punishment could be levied against someone getting a tattoo from an unlicensed artist in Japan?

That’s way better than it has any right to be. They had a goal of marrying otaku discussions with The Simpsons and by god they nailed it.

Not to get weird but what was that from and who said that? It popped into my head a few days ago so I started making jokes about it before I realized I couldn’t remember what it was from. None of the people I was with could place it either. I want to say Psych but I know that isn’t right.

Man I FINALLY got back to playing Yakuza 5 the other day. I don’t need a game that combines Madoka Magica with Persona. I mean, I do but...I don’t...you know?

I’m sorry to hear that. It’s so easy to get in touch with people these days that I think it’s worth reaching out to someone involved with the show. Even if they don’t work for it anymore, they’re sure to know someone that can help you out.

Might as well bring in the Star Trek fans due to the upcoing 30th anniversary of TNG: Encounter at Blartpoint.

I prefer the Japanese model. She may not talk much but at least she can dance and otherwise emulate a person.
