PIPA, SOPA, and saving moolah headline PB & Jason this time around.
Have you ever been on YouTube to see a message that a video has been removed to protect someone's intellectual property or prevent copyright prevention? Yes? Well, have you ever seen that message when trying to view a promotional trailer released specifically to be placed on YouTube by various members of the media? Doesn't that sound a little mind-numbing? Click through to find a link to hear more about this particular issue, and how I reflect it to the SOPA & PIPA bills currently being talked about in the US Congress. Oh, but there's a lot more to PB & Jason than just those bills; click through to see the rest!
The cantankerous PSP struts past that Vita whippersnapper.
The Media Create numbers that track video game sales in Japan for the week of January 9th through the 15th are out and present some pretty poor numbers all around. The drop in sales across the board is probably due to the post-holiday retail doldrums. The PS Vita sales numbers are getting the most attention for falling behind the PSP, which isn’t making way for Sony’s newer handheld.
Atlus to release the game this year for PSP.
Atus recently announced via press release and their web site that they will be bringing Growlanser: Wayfarer of Time to North American PSPs this summer.

No word on whether an Xbox 360 edition is planned.
Just a few weeks ago developer Just Add Water delivered on their promise to rerelease Oddworld: Stranger’s Wrath in glorious HD. Many gamers would have been content with seeing this underappreciated gem get a second chance on a new platform, but according to a tweet from their official Twitter account, the folks running Oddworld these days have further plans to spread the HD love by announcing Oddworld: Munch’s Oddysee for an end of quarter two release.
These zombies ate my neighbors, so now they all need to die.
Until Lucasarts does something with their cult classic Zombies Ate My Neighbors, this is the true spiritual successor to the classic SNES/Genesis multiplayer zombie killing simulator. From the overhead perspective to the cartoony visuals and wacky weapons, this game brought warm, fuzzy memories to someone that spent hours with Zombies Ate My Neighbors.

The N64 was two, almost three generations ago, right?
I would call myself a gaming enthusiast – someone who can appreciate just about any type of game for its unique merits.
