2022-08-20 15:12:35 +0000 UTCThe Black Panther soul power in Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow is still my favorite dash in a 2D game - the minute you get it, you never walk again. Combined with the Hippogryph Soul (Super Jump), Flying Armor Soul (Glide), Giant Bat Soul (Flying), and Skeleton Blades Soul (Slide), it's gotta be one of the best smorgasbords of movement types out there.

2022-08-16 00:04:29 +0000 UTCOh yeah, Trigun has some hot ones for sure. I (brandon) just rewatched the movie - it's sort of just a long disjointed episode, but still nice?

2022-08-15 17:53:03 +0000 UTCI was just thinking the other day that Trigun might have some of the best names for characters with examples like "Brilliant Dynamites Neon," "Midvalley the Horn Freak," and "Chapel the Evergreen" to name a few. However, the Guilty Gear name prompt really makes me question my feelings. That series has some pretty excellent names, haha This was a great episode! Especially liked the dirt bag question discussed this week.
