Bad Buddy – BL Drama (TV) Review

Arden Skye2 years ago2 years ago18 mins

A BL Drama for the Queers and such a fresh breath! Sets the bar high for the industry. Remember my review of KinnPorsche and where I said that that series introduced some good changes for the BL fandom? Jokes on that. Bad Buddy came out half a year earlier than KP and managed to triple…

The “Yellow Paint” Virus

Aaron Bird2 years ago2 years ago04 mins

It’s a debate as old as, well the last few generations of gaming. The basis of the argument seems to be around “signposting” in gaming. In reality though, how wide spread is this issue, and does it really detract from the gaming experience?

Emulation – Is it a game saver?

Aaron Bird2 years ago2 years ago03 mins

Emulation, some see it as a dirty word, others as the saviour of the retro gaming scene. These days, retro games are hard to come by, and when you find them, can cost £100s if not more.

The girl I want is so handsome! – Manga Review

Arden Skye2 years ago2 years ago02 mins

Also known as Shiki-senpai is too handsome! or in Japanese Ikemensugi desu Shiki-senpai! (イケメンすぎです紫葵先パイ!) is a two-volume Manga by Yuama. Quite unexpected! I guess I read a little too many Mangas with unbalanced pace, so I’m actually surprised the author had it balanced it here. It started fast, was fast in the middle and ended…
