I'm typically a fan of melodic death metal myself, but there are a few death metal bands that I still love to listen to every now and then. Some of my favorite old school death metal albums are mainly from Bolt Thrower, Death, and old-school Amorphis. I also REALLY enjoy Entombed and Dismember's...

I have to admit that I wouldn't be into heavy metal if not for Linkin Park being my gateway to heavier music during my teenage years. It's also quite jarring listening to these older tracks now and realizing how deeply they actually related to Chester's long struggle. R.I.P. Chester, I'm certain...

Thanks for the heads up! It really looks like it's all a guessing game at this point. Let's just hope we happen to all be refreshing that amazon page when they finally decide to open up pre-orders.

Well yeah. I already corrected the post that you're quoting once I did research on the news that Peter brought up about the whole debacle with the Apple vs. Nintendo parts battle. Thanks for pointing that out nonetheless.

Well, that's what I get for trying to utilize pure assumption and speculation. Such mixed emotions right now... I'm glad Nintendo isn't seemingly using the artificial scarcity method, but I'm also saddened to find out that it sounds like the whole mess with Apple could delay availability of the...

Well, I definitely don't belong in the "watch the world burn" category. I just find it interesting that Nintendo made such an apparently huge blunder with the Classic NES stock and instantly proceeded to do the same with the Switch months later. Either they're incredibly incompetent at assessing...

To me, hearing this news is the equivalent of hearing that a small mine of gold was discovered in a small town in the Appalachian Mountains. It sounds tempting, but there's no way in Hell I'll be able to actually win a race with the audience to attain it. I sincerely hate Nintendo's new...

I like the looks of this game so far. Of course, I loved Sonic Generations, so it makes sense that I would get excited about this as well. My only qualm is that I'm worried about the avatar character gameplay sharing similarities with the God-awful Sonic Boom gameplay.

I decided to drive 10 hours to go up and see Iron Maiden in Virginia couple weeks ago with a friend of mine. I was surprised by the turnout, as the metal shows I've been to have never exceeded an audience of a few thousand people... this had close to 30,000. I thought the band was top notch with...

I joined 13 years ago and have posted sporadically for several years now. I originally joined to find out more about the fate of Toonami since it was leaving weekdays on Cartoon Network and becoming Saturday-exclusive. I got a lot of entertainment out of Matt Wilson's (Who here remembers that...

Killer bumpers, the amount of work they've put into the packaging for the block with the Intruder event is amazing. Not to mention one hell of a twist with Tom 1 as well... I didn't expect this event to be NEARLY this good.

Ya know, I never really understood why they even considered using that additional wish on Vegeta. Why didn't they just use it to revive Goku immediately so he can take on Frieza? I mean, Vegeta's obviously going to kill them from what we can tell at this point, so it's not like it would benefit...

I thought that was a decent episode to introduce the series, but what's up with the tone being literally all over the place? One moment, Tatsumi's killing a little girl and is all shocked by his friends being tortured and murdered... then the next, he's acting all goofy when being forced to join...

Warning, incredibly negative post forthcoming. Well.... that sucked, to be frank. I think it's quite obvious that Nintendo has given up on the Wii U being a profitable console at this point, which is why we had not one new surprise. I did find the new Mario and Luigi/Paper Mario crossover to be...

My initial reaction with this was... oh great, another April Fools Joke. Oh wait... it's October. OMG!
