  1. The Rebuild series for Evangelion is worth a look if you want a more focused and condensed version of the story with plot alterations.

    Personally though (I have yet to find an actual reason why), I love Eva.


  2. Really I never thought LOST was about finding the answers, but rather the effects that the questions had on the characters. I enjoy pretty much every season except the final one, only because i thought the whole alternate universe thing was a decent ending, but consumed too much time from each episode.


  3. I also just recently finished watching Gurren Lagaan..... yeah that's an easy one, I can't really recommend this to anyone. I wouldn't actually say it was bad but it is too saturday morning kids show to say it was good. Still I don't really go in for anything Mecha with exceptions being Full Metal Panic and Escaflowne but those are greatly due to the story, so it did well to make it past the first episode. What was strange is that it started out very humourous and then after around the 10th episode went kind of dark and very serious. Again I can't recommend it but I did watch it while playing Kingdoms of Amalur, so if you need background noise go wild.

    TTGL really is the "lets-cool-off-a-bit" counterbalance to Neon Genesis Evangelion. While the story is easily dismissable I would still recommend it to most, as it is a very well crafted series because of it's awesome music and incredible animation (seriously, TTGL is a technical masterpiece).

    I've recently finished Death Note and Madoka Magica, which were both pretty good. The first half of Death Note, in particular, is immensely thrilling.


  4. The part that stumped me was the beavers.

    What got me was that it involved a bit of timing. You had to do a thing, and then do the next thing quickly, which hadn't been part of the game's vocabulary prior to that.

    I spent for the longest time trying to Rambo my way through the bridge by running on it and then trying to get out the extinguisher before they make Manny run back out.


  5. I tried to play it a little while ago, turns out the kid me who enjoyed adventure games died off at some point. It's sad because I love everything about Grim Fandango except actually playing it.

    Yeah, it'd be really nice to play Grim Fandango without being forced to stop playing because you're literally stumped like Chris in the podcast. I've gotten to the petrified forest part with no major roadblocks so far.

    Opening the tube-machine threw me for a loop though.
