Confessions of a Backlogged Gamer, Week 34: How I Roll

Yeah, I know I used pretty much the same title for a recent podcast.  It fits, okay?
So, as you might surmise, I have been hitting the Katamari pretty hard.  Really, why wouldn’t I?  It’s bright and shiny, the music is as infectiously adorable as ever, and the King of All Cosmos retains his creepy awesomeness.  [...]

Confessions of a Backlogged Gamer, Week 33(ish): Milestones

I sort of abandoned this column for a while, and for that, I apologize.  Rather than bore you with lame excuses, though, I’ll start off with what spurred me to come back to it: after 120+ hours and plenty of both enjoyment and frustration, I have finally completed Persona 3, including the FES content!  I’d [...]

Some Other Podcast, Episode 26: How We Roll

This month marks six months, or one half of one year, that we have been podcasting for your amusement.  Have people really been listening to us for that long?  Yes!  And we love you!  Anyway, we both have kind of boring gaming habits this week and we are exhausted, but we make up for it [...]

Some Other Podcast, Episode 25: Professor Layton and the Sack of Oranges

That Layton character is not to be trusted.  Something is definitely hidden in his gigantic hat.   This is pure, uncut Some Other Castle goodness down to its very core; if you are offended by diversions into completely unrelated territory, well…. you probably aren’t listening to us anyway, so I probably don’t have to warn [...]

Our very first package!

Recently we told you of the mystery package that was sent by loyal listener Iruga.  Well now that we have figured out how to use the internet for video (I know like 10 years behind everyone else) we have a little video of us opening the mystery package and Leah making crazy high pitched noises [...]

Boss Fight: Leah’s Final Fantasy Primer, Part 3

With Dissidia releasing tomorrow for the PSP, I thought it would be a good time to wrap up my Final Fantasy rankings.  This mini-series of mine has required a lot more thought than I anticipated, but it’s turned out to be a ton of fun to write, so I hope everyone else is enjoying reading [...]

Bonus Dungeons: Leah’s Final Fantasy Primer, Part 2

In lieu of my usual Backlogged post for the week (and because I haven’t really been doing much other than playing WoW obsessively), I’ve decided to return to my Final Fantasy rankings for the next installment.  I really wasn’t expecting the outpouring of support that X-2 got, but I still won’t be including it in [...]

Random Encounters: Leah’s Final Fantasy Primer, Part 1

A question that we received via listener mail (LISTENER MAIL!) for our last podcast got me thinking; I’ve been a Square Enix fangirl for a long time, and in particular, I rank the Final Fantasy series among my favorite games of all.  But what does that mean, really?  Looking solely at the numbered installments, which [...]
