Yoko Kanno, who scored the original anime, isn’t the only one returning to Cowboy Bebop.

Tales Of Arise Reminds Me Why I Fell In Love With JRPGs
6.10.2021
A man wearing an iron mask who doesn’t remember his past. A woman who electrocutes people and has a magic rock hidden in her chest. A rag-tag band of rebels trying to overthrow an empire. The start of Tales of Arise is ridiculous, and also the most fun I’ve had with a JRPG in years.Read more

Nintendo Deletes Horny Tweet
4.10.2021
I don’t know what to say so I’ll just start with the facts. Nintendo, through its France office, tweeted an image over the weekend of Metal Gear’s Snake looking at Samus Aran from Metroid’s ass. A couple hours later it then deleted the tweet. Now we are left to pick up the pieces.Read more

Bandai Namco Changed Its Logo And Fans Think It Kinda Sucks
1.10.2021
In 2005, Bandai and Namco merged, and the following year, Bandai Namco was born. To mark the new conglomerate, the company got a yellow, red, and orange logo with the company’s name in white font. It’s not a bad look, and stands out among Japanese game companies. But next year, Bandai Namco...

The Latest Life-Sized Gundam Is Disappointing Some Fans

Before You Start: Tips For Playing Tales Of Arise
10.9.2021
Tales of Arise, the latest entry in Bandai Namco’s long-running series of games about spiky haired boys who scream “You bastard!!!” and then stab an evil dude, is a notable deviation from established formula. Rather than an action-oriented RPG, as you may expect by now, this one’s more of...
Tales Of Arise Is Even Better If You Remap The Buttons
10.9.2021
For years, Bandai Namco’s Tales games have largely been role-playing games with an action bent.

It rules....
FYI: Tales Of Arise’s Costume DLC Adds Hidden Skills
10.9.2021
A Tales game isn’t a Tales game if it doesn’t have a comically ridiculous wardrobe. In that regard, Tales of Arise, the latest entry in Bandai Namco’s long-running series of JRPGs, does not disappoint. (See: screenshot above, screenshots below.) But heed this warning: Downloading the game’s...

Smash Bros.’ Most Ridiculous Tournament Is Glorious Chaos
8.9.2021
Pro-level fighting game tournaments are a joy to watch, often even when you’re unfamiliar with the game being played. The one guy gets hit, and then everybody yells, and then some cool shit happens. It’s great. While the nuances of a given game may be lost on a newcomer, that’s fine. Fighting games...
Bandai Launched A Gundam Model Recycling Project In Japan
30.8.2021
Much of the appeal of making Gundam models is getting a box full of parts connected to plastic frame sections, cutting those parts out, and then piecing together a badass mecha. But when you’re finished, there’s still a box full of discarded plastic frames! FNN reports that as of last year, when...
