Too Much Awesome

Last time on TMA Mondays, I gave a list of 5 Good Games that have had negative effects on the industry. Upon reflection, I realize that perhaps my points may have been wrapped up too briskly with very little context on where I was going with the article. To make a few things clear, the [...]

As we narrow toward the end of the first month of 2012, new rumors have recently surfaced of the next generation of consoles. Microsoft has revealed it’s development of the Xbox 720, and updates on the Nindendo Wii U are all but imminent at this point. No rumors yet on Sony’s new system (I’m gonna [...]

Today, I begin with yet another of my personal new years resolutions. When last we left on Authentically Awesome Anime, Chris had given us a passionate recollection of his history with Death Note, the breakthrough hit series that jump-started the careers of writer and artist duo Tsugumi Ohba and Takeshi Obata. As of this point, [...]

At the end of every year, every site posts their mandatory best of/worst of lists. One of my own new years resolutions was to get at least one of those done before too long. For today I have chosen to approach movies, so while our memories of 2011 are busy going from short term and [...]

What a better way to jumpstart a new year than with a fresh new story to one of my favorite things in the entire world. With a brand new series rumored to begin by the year’s end, Dark Horse Comics provides us all a means to pad out that time with some good-natured Post War [...]

Today, we at Toy-TMA bid farewell to the fond memories of 2011 and look forward to a whole new year on the horizon. 2012, Year of Democratic elections, Disaster predictions, and the Dragon (gotta love the dragon). Will the year be dramatically dangerous, or disappointingly dismal? I don’t know. But in the mean time, it [...]

Twas the Brawl After Christmas, and all through the Wii, Not a creature wasn’t stirring as far as the eye can see. Only one will survive I wonder who it will be? This is the Ultimate Showdown of Ultimate Destiny. (Nintendo Reprise)

“Will the Play Station Move continue to struggle and boggle down Sony’s progress? Or was 2010 simply a relapse year before the PS3 gets ready to blow our minds again? Only time will tell.” -Me, Last year. Well, the time has come. After a pretty uneventful 2010, with God of War 3 and Heavy Rain [...]

I figured while I’m on the subject, I might as well continue with my Crash Bandicoot Retrospectives. Last week in Part 3, we covered Crash’s critically acclaimed kart racer, CTR, and boy did that become more confrontational than I intended it to be. I apologize, and promise from now on to judge Crash games by [...]

It’s been a whole year and a half since my very first guest article here at Toy-TMA, and I realized that I have some serious unfinished business to attend to. I debuted on this site with a Retrospective on the classic Crash Bandicoot Trilogy, which still stands as my all time favorite video game trilogy [...]
