Multimedia Failure 12 – Battle Arena Toshinden

Jason Arriola, Vanessa Cahill, and John Lucero  check out the hair on Eiji as they take a dive into the Battle Arena Toshinden OVA. This, much like our next episode, is a two part thing we’re covering in one episode because they’re short. That and, honestly, we don’t think we could dedicate two episodes to these things. Like […]

Blaster Master Zero 2 Review

Platform: Switch Inti Creates, developer of Mega Man and Mega Man-like games, are not-so-good when it comes to first goes around. To me, a lot of the developer’s initial games in a franchise seem more like a proof of concept for an eventual, better sequel. This is fitting for a company that’s made so much […]

ROWYCO 10 – Star Fox

Jason Arriola and Dominic Chavez get back to a slightly less ambitious project. This episode, we’re talkin’ Star Fox’s hit-or-miss soundtrack. Rather than cover any low points, we stick to highlighting what we feel are strongest compositions in the game. This wasn’t Hajime Hirasawa’s only work. It was not only the first major work he […]

ROWYCO 9 – Ys Seven – Disc Two

Jason Arriola and Dominic Chavez finish up their tribute to the longtime Editor-in-Chief of RPGamer, Michael ” Macstorm” Cunningham. We take a deep look into the second disc of the Ys Seven soundtrack for what is easily our longest episode yet. This episode also acts as a great primer for people looking to get into […]

Multimedia Failure 11 – Fatal Fury: The Motion Picture

(Quick note, I want to apologize about my audio. It was something I didn’t notice until I sat down to edit a batch of these, so the audio for the next couple of episodes on my end isn’t up to where I’d like it. I’ve got it fixed now, but I guess that’s what happens […]

ROWYCO 8 – Ys Seven – Disc One

I’m going to go ahead and, if you will, break the fourth wall on this post. I tried writing this in the third-person like I normally do, but it just never felt right, no matter how many times I attempted to fix it. This episode is a little different. Dominic and I are not just […]

Stray Cat Doors Review

Platforms: Switch (reviewed), Android, iOS The Nintendo Switch eShop is packed with games and dozens of new ones release on a weekly basis. This makes it rather hard to not only keep up with all the new content, but also weed out the good from the bad. Every once in a while though, a game […]

ROWYCO 7 – Pictionary (NES)

Jason Arriola and Dominic Chavez take their first dive into the music of Tim Follin. Tim is a bit of a legend for some of his work with the NES, but we decided to take a look at one of his less-celebrated soundtracks. Pictionary is, admittedly, a bit of a strange place to start, but I think as […]

Multimedia Failure 10 – Samurai Shodown

Jason Arriola, Vanessa Cahill, and John Lucero  watched Samurai Shodown for this episode. Somehow, we managed to talk less about this one than the Art of Fighting OVA, and that one was half the length of this. That said, it should be fairly obvious there’s not a lot to love about this one, but we do our damnedest to keep it […]

Resident Evil 2 Review

Platforms: PlayStation 4 (reviewed), Xbox One, Microsoft Windows It’s been 21 years since Resident Evil 2 released on the original PlayStation and to some, it’s regarded as the pinnacle of the series. Regardless of your feelings on the survival horror classic, it’s safe to say that most people would agree that the Resident Evil franchise […]
