    Things you didn't notice in games from your childhood

    In 'Banjo Kazooie', the theme music all throughout Grunty's Lair is a twist on the 'Teddy Bear's Picnic' song. Very clever.

    Star Fox 64 3D Review

    I'm glad someone else has commented on the voices. I always considered Starfox 64 (Lylatwars, in my neck of the woods) to be a diamond in the rough as far as voice acting was concerned, and seems to be the one thing that Nintendo saw fit to ruin. Why bother re-rocording every line of dialogue in...

    Language in Catherine

    Is there any word on whether the Western release of Catherine will have access to the Japanese dub? It would be a crying shame to miss out on the work of anime voice-acting legends Kotono Mitsuishi and Koichi Yamadera.

    If I could have anyone's voice, I'd probably take Michael Emerson's.

    Are there any good female guitarists out there?

    Yeah, Kaki King is pretty great. Wata from 'Boris' is the most amazing female lead I've ever heard.

    Preview: Magic the Gathering Tactics

    Sounds pretty cool. Been waiting for a FTP-MTG game for some time. Pyroclasm is a *****.

    Idea

    Well, you could take the premise for any good game, recycle it in space and BAM, brilliant game. Nothing entirely new here.

    Captain Beefheart dead, aged 69

    Don Van Vliet, more popularly known by his stage name 'Captain Beefheart' died yesterday (possibly today in the States), as a result of difficulties with his multiple sclerosis. I hadn't seen a thread about him yet, so I decided I'd put this out there, for anyone who was interested. He was...

    Science Fiction Recommendations

    "I Have No Mouth, and I Must Scream" by Harlan Ellison is one of the most moving things I've read. And G.R.R Martin has quite a lot of fantastic science fiction novellas, all set in a persistent universe. The 'Tuf Voyaging' series is very good. His 'Dreamsongs' collection contains many of his...

    NES Controller Coffee Table Conceals Working Console

    My thoughts exactly. I'm a little confused as to whether or not that was sarcasm, because this table is going to go for so many thousands of dollars, that it IS funny.

    Water Temple

    Regardless of whether or not you found it difficult, you have to appreciate the fact that it is the most ill-designed of all the dungeons in the game, and one of the worst in existence. It's needlessly long, ludicrously convoluted, repetetive, and boring. The soundtrack begins to drone after a...

    I AM NOT TOUCHING THAT FORUM WITH A BARGEPOLE

    I always have a little chuckle when someone creates a thread about homosexuality or Yahtzee. It's never going to end well.
