Bonus Pokemon Power Goddamn, you don't post in forever then drop posters for two incredible games (well, I guess the second is actually a cover?). The BattleTanx poster is okay for what it is. Just like the name, the poster drives the game's concept across. Granted, the explosion is effectively a lot of white space >_> BattleTanx is probably one of my favorite N64 games. As for the Pokemon cover, it's a little simple -- the kind of layout that a layperson might put together -- but it looks alright and it drives interest. --- (\/)(\/)|-| There are precious few at ease / With moral ambiguities / So we act as though they don't exist. |

Doom though on the SNES did not play very well in my opinion. Just looks bad and doesnt play very smooth. I was just speculating and Im sure there are probably several other reasons why it never was released but there must have been some marketing money behind it to get a poster before it was canned. I can understand forgetting some of the other titles, but Wolfenstein 3D? C'mon, man! And I can't remember any real issue with Doom, but it's been a minute. --- (\/)(\/)|-| There are precious few at ease / With moral ambiguities / So we act as though they don't exist. |

Surprised this franchise never got picked up as a Saturday morning cartoon. tbh, the ingredients were all there for it to be a massive hit. The fact that it never got picked up is even weirder when you think about the other animal-team cartoons that were used to cash in on TMNT (some of which were more Jawesome than others). idk, maybe frogs was too close to turtles or some crap. --- (\/)(\/)|-| There are precious few at ease / With moral ambiguities / So we act as though they don't exist. |

Wow, so that's radically different. Oo Looks like it was because the versions had different devs, which is kinda weird from a licensing perspective... and it looks like there was also a NES game which formed the basis of the GB game. Kinda surprised. ChronxDaHemphog posted... Day 42: Star Trek Deep Space Nine Huh. Didn't remember there being a DS9 game on the SNES.

The show is okay, but not as good as I wanted it to be. Though the last episode was definitely a strong note and probably the best so far. To be fair, I felt exactly the same about the book: it was okay, but not as good as I wanted it to be. When I first heard the name of the series some time ago, I was enthused.

Always a bit amazed at just how much easier it is to watch a show you're enjoying to even a mediocre one, let alone a bad one. Not sure what to watch next, but I might do another rewatch of Reincarnated as a Slime. I can't remember the last time I was really into re-watching an anime. I loved Ouran High the first time around and still got a kick out of some of while rewatching, but I eventually got bored. I think about the only time when I'm really down with rewatching an anime is when I've only seen the sub, as was the case with Parasyte (well, that and I watched an edited-down version of Parasyte that didn't start from the beginning). idk, rewatching anything half the time doesn't feel that appealing, except when I get suckered in by some Youtube clips. However, I'll sometimes re-read manga. After finishing Shibito, I read through a few of the earlier chapters yet again. Although for that, I kinda rushed through the series so it gave me a chance to appreciate some of the stories a little better. --- (\/)(\/)|-| There are precious few at ease / With moral ambiguities / So we act as though they don't exist. |

| Zeus 09/04/20 5:33:12 AM #465 | Finished Devilman Crybaby. That shit went completely off the rails by the end. Midway through the series, there's kind of a turning point and then another turning point before everything just gets absolutely crazy in the last two episodes. I was digging the show up to that point, but I'm not sure how I feel about the ending. At first I was kinda thinking series like Devilman and Ultraman were cool for getting very different remakes/reboots... but then I considered it a bit more and realized that how a *lot* of shows actually do that. Transformers, for instance, has done it like 3 dozens times now where characters are heavily reinterpreted (although some defining character traits always remain). I_Abibde posted...
Am I better off starting with the early stuff or just going with certain series? And are there a lot of different series?
