Reservations on Metriod Other M
Saturday, August 28, 2010
For a while, I had been looking forward to the release of Metriod: Other M. Before its release, I decided to look around the net for some reviews. The reviews seemed to be mixed, some thinking it was good (not great) and others thinking that it's horrible.
Since I recently got G4 back on my cable TV plan, I've been watching X-Play again. So far, their review seems to be the most damning. Take a look for yourself.
If what X-Play says is true, then I may be postponing (or canceling) my plans to purchase this game. More than the gameplay, I'm concerned about Samus pining over a man and only using her weapons and abilities when he tells her to. At bare minimum, I think I clearly need to do more research.
Getting Medieval on Your Sims
Friday, August 20, 2010
On August 3rd 2010, EA Games announced a new game on their website.: The Sims Medieval.
The article itself is pretty... well... short and chintzy. But it does promise the ability to create a kingdom, go on quests, and make heroes. I hope this is going to be as awesome as it sounds. Hooray for micromanaging! Expect this game on PC and Mac in March of 2011.

Hello everyone! Someone told me endingb doesn't update enough, so I figured I'd help us all out with this!
Otakon 2010
Monday, July 26, 2010
It's almost the end of July, which means it's almost time for Otakon! Most of the Ending B crew will be in attendance as characters from a certain CLAMP story... stories? I dunno, semantics man. Anyway, we'll be there in costume for most of the weekend ready to enjoy the Anime convention. Hope to see you there!

Otakon or bust!

SIBP: Super Mario Galaxy 2
Saturday, June 26, 2010
Welcome to another installment of "So I've Been Playing" (or SIBP for short). Today, we're going to be looking at Nintendo's Super Mario Galaxy 2 for the Nintendo Wii.

I wonder if Mario will ever learn to speak like a human being?
So, did I like it? Love it? Hate it? Well... to be honest...
ACen 2010 Recap - Part 3
Monday, May 24, 2010
The first thing I did after getting to the con was … get my picture taken. I didn’t even manage to make it past the lobby before being stopped for the first time. I have a relatively popular cosplay, so this happens frequently. My favorite part of conventions is walking around and seeing the many cosplayers. I spend most of my day at a con taking pictures and getting my picture taken. I love cosplaying.
Not me, but this Gurren Lagann group was hanging out by the entrance.
Black and White Starters
Saturday, May 22, 2010
World, meet the Pokemon: Black and White starters. Pokemon: Black and White starters, meet the world.

Quack/Hiss, ... Um... khew?, and Oink!
Not a lot is known about these Pokemon (seriously, I had to look all over the net for ANY info on them). All I have are the following:
* The green lizard/duck thing is the grass starter called Tsutarja. I'm guessing that the name will change in localization.
* The blue otter (who has been eating clams off of his tummy) is Mijumaru, the water starter. It could be 50/50 whether that name changes in localization or not.
* The red pig is Pokabu, the fire starter... pig. I don't think I like the barbecue implications.
Well, that is literally all I have. But as we draw closer to the release date (as of right now, Fall of 2010 for Japan) we will learn more about the new region of Pokemon.
Seriously, a fire pig? Lord, I can hear the bacon jokes now.
Pokemon info/pictures found at Bulbapedia and the logo found at Seven Sided Cube.
ACen Recap - Part 1 - Cosplay
Monday, May 17, 2010
This is the first of a short series of articles recapping this year's ACen 2010. As usual there were a ton of great cosplayers. I've collected a few of my favorites here on Ending B (see more after the jump). The full collection is viewable over on my Picasa Web Album here: picasaweb.com/eric.kociecki/ACen2010.
Cowboy Bebop still has a pretty strong presence at cons
