News & Updates for November 2004

Added an anime profile for Slaves to Passion.

Okay, I know some of you are probably wondering why the heck am I'm wasting time writing videogame reviews instead of posting more anime profiles. Well, I recently got our new project at work up and running, so I've been spending a lot of time at the office working hard on that. Thus, I haven't really felt like getting on the computer when I finally make it home. Instead, I've been playing videogames to help me settle down. Then when I'm at work waiting between 30 minutes to several hours for a script to finish executing, I use that time to write my thoughts on the games I've been playing. So that's what's going on there.

Wrote a review for La Pucelle: Tactics.

Wrote reviews for Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.

Wrote a review for The Nightmare of Druaga. Added a spoiler warning in rotation with the existing message located underneath the Absolute Anime™ logo in the navigation bar.

No new profiles this weekend, but did a whole bunch of corrections. Also, I converted the Directory Listing from a whole bunch of HTML files into a couple of PHP files. There should be no noticeable difference to viewers, but it will shorten my build time and greatly shorten the upload time.

So you may have noticed some new ads up there in the navigation bar, but I was also thinking about possible doing a random anime thing. I'll have to put more thought into that, though, as I don't want to have to load giant JavaScript file filled with all the anime series, nor do I want to use an iframe.

Picked up Ratchet & Clank: Up Your Arsenal this weekend for Treeses, and she hasn't been able to put it down. I loved the first one, but haven't really played the second one too much. This third one looks like more of the same, which isn't bad because the system works. I'm looking forward to getting Sly 2. Oh, and she discovered that one of our controllers is going dead, so I suppose we'll have to pick up one of those.

Added the anime profile of Hooligan. Added the character profiles of Mikail Diagliev (from Plastic Little- The Adventures of Captain Tita); Alister (from Yu-Gi-Oh!); Asuka Tenjoin, Professor Chronos, Judai Yuki (from Yu-Gi-Oh GX); Ayato Kamina, Quon Kisaragi, Reika Mishima (from RahXephon); Ciel (from Tsukihime); Hiro Granger (from Beyblade G Revolution).
