On this week's Aeropodcast, I...
...tell my GTAIV/colonoscopy story.
...admit to taking days off of work to play Animal Crossing.
...defend the Wii's library.
...talk a little about Starcraft in Korea.
...push PixelJunk Monsters.
...buy Lair.
He repeats what we say.
Clark already uses the word "blu-ray" like it's normal.
"We buy that on blu-ray, Daddy?"
Pokemon Neo in stock (?)
Target usually has a box of cheap $1 card packs, ranging from out-of-favor movie trading cards to old random game boosters. This weekend I found a Japanese Pokemon Neo pack. 100% Japanese. That is the 1999 set that introduced the Gold/Silver generation of characters to the card game. How in the hell did a ten-year-old Japanese booster get to a Target clearance shelf?
By the way, in true Pokemon TCG fashion, it was a double-rare pack.
Year None!
I almost missed the first issue of Ambush Bug: Year None this week because my shop skipped my books and there was only one copy left at the end of Wednesday. Wednesday being New Comics Day, that means my local store was sold out of Ambush Bug: Year None by the end of the very day it was first on sale. That either means the book is unexpectedly popular or my guys under-ordered; I guess that can go either way.
Needless to say, I did not get the 1-in-10 alternate cover version.
I should work on revamping my Ambush Bug fansite. It's largely unchanged since 1998.
