I own the first two entries (Panzer Dragoon, and Panzer Dragoon Zwei) on the Saturn. I'm no Johnny-come-lately to Panzer Dragoon. I also own the Xbox version. That leaves me missing out on the third Saturn version (Panzer Dragoon Saga, the RPG-ish one). Are there any other versions than those four? Read more

Though I have a Kinect, and I see the Kinect controls as a natural and appealing way to play this game, I agree that they should have gone the Child of Eden route on this one (giving the player the option of controller controls or Kinect controls). Read more

I don't agree. A lot of business gets done in private clubs like this, and locking women out of them helps entrench the "Old Boys Club" both literally and figuratively. Read more

You're probably right, on every account. Though the Kickstarter element to Double Fine pretty much was the news story, and lots of us weren't getting the emails. Read more

Since when are we tired of hearing about Kickstarter? Kickstarter is an awesome, democratising influence in the game industry. I just bought my first two Kickstarters yesterday (or was it the day before?) after following it on here for a while. Read more

The hilarious thing about August National is that they convey automatic membership to the CEO of IBM. For the first time in its history, the CEO of IBM is a women. I suppose, in their sexist way, they didn't consider the possibility that the head of IBM might some day be a woman. It'll be interesting to see what Read more

The Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms is very clear that discrimination based on gender (and, well, most other things). Whether something is illegal, and whether a group has been Read more

I was amazed when I recently discovered that August won't let women join. That's enough reason to be disinterested, if you ask me. That isn't even legal anymore where I live (Canada). Read more

Glad to see some love for the Cannon Fodder theme song, though to me it was brilliant satire as opposed to cheesy but c'est la vie. :) Read more

You're welcome. Though I must admit, I'm using a Kobo Vox, so can't say how manga looks on an e-ink Kobo. I know they look awesome on my Vox, though. :) Read more

I just bought the first issue of the manga on Kobo, and I can't wait to check it out. Interesting to see this just after I bought it, odd timing. Read more

For me, I stopped buying comics because of the space they were taking up after three decades. Getting a Kobo Vox tablet-style e-reader has reinvigorated my comic buying, because there are no storage issues. Ditto with all my media consumption (books, music, movies, TV box sets, and games), I buy them all digitally Read more
