E3's almost around the corner and already has Nintendo decided to tease more of the Wii U. It's looking alright at best, save for the Pro Controller, that sorry excuse for a controller. It's like they took the 360 pad and reversed Sony's stick placement.

Already posted this in the Sonic 4 Ep. 2 thread, so I might as well share it here. Here's my cover of the vs Metal Sonic music. ...so far.

So if owning and even remotely liking Ep1/Ep2 is silly in ila's book, then I must be twice as silly. ...Although in my case, that's probably not a good thing. Music and other issues aside, I thought Ep2 was worth the price. But at $10, it'd definitely be a better sell, no doubt. I agree that despite the improved physics and graphics, some of the more notorious Ep1 gimmicks (bubble chains, too many springs/boosters) are still present in Ep2. But the placement/number of boosters feels (or seems to feel, anyways) better handled this time around. Special stages are still as frustrating as Ep1's are, but they should be easier than rotating a maze. The bosses (most of them, mind you) are actually original (or somewhat original). Anyways, Ep2 is definitely a step in the right direction. If there is ever an Ep3, it needs to have (as Destructoid's Jim Sterling put) "more soul". Ep2 has improvements, but it's heavily lacking the ambience that came with the older games. EDIT: I think I might've actually improved upon the Metal Sonic music. You be the judge of that.

Sorry for Triple Postin'. Yet another new piece I've started work on.

So long as the mouse works, it's good as gold.

The thing that sucks, however, is the cost of said controllers. There definitely is a market for them, but the cost is what's killing it right now. Anything more than $30 is theft, IMO. Edit: Alternatively, if you don't have a problem with sticking a joystick on your phone's screen, then you might want to check this out.

On a larger touchscreen such games might work. The games that might work best on a smaller touchscreen would be games like Zen Pinball or even puzzle games. But the latter would be a mixed bag depending on execution, of course.

The Avengers Sci-Fi/Action, Marvel/Disney/Paramount, 2012 A combination of intense action, explosions, humor, a working story & dialogue, and six Marvel icons teaming up to create what can only be described as the most awesome movie of 2012, more or less all time.

Adam Yauch, of Beastie Boys fame, passed away today at the age of 47 due to cancer.

Something I've been up to lately.

I *shamefully* did for the brief amount of time I owned it, but kinda grew out of that. I mean, the glitches and story eventually got to me. It's no longer in my library and that money went to other additions to my library.

I do try, rawr Rawr. seewhatididthere.jpg

...Acknowledged and fixed.

Congrats tentril! I wish the best for you and your wife!

From the genius who brought you the incredible comes a new tale of a professor endowed with superhuman speed and a taste for cucumber sandwiches.I present to you,

Somehow, I'd like to see Wonderland animated. I don't know why, but I do. Anywho, great work as usual, Rawr.

Did you try the search function? Also, you can send him a PM.

It's a shame that this is a gimmick to make people buy up Episode 1. Otherwise, playing as Metal Sonic in the game as is would've been interesting on its own. But you know Sega.

Interesting news today. Sega unveiled a at GameSpot today (via On The Spot) and a nice bit of free bonus content for owners of Episode 1 & 2 (the latter of which comes out next month for PS3 and 360, 15th and 16th respectively) called "Episode Metal".Said episode allows you to play as Metal Sonic in Episodes 1 & 2 and includes "four exclusive levels".

Just a little something I've been working on. You can has Bounce remix? Of course you can has.

Because playing as a super fast talking dog instead of Sonic totally equates to an amazing game.

Thanks! I was actually attempting to animate it with Flipnote on the DSi. It's a bit crazy, but I'll share it eventually. Edit: Here you go. Of course, in typical comic-to-animation fashion, I'm faithful to a good portion of my comic yet executing the premise (somewhat) differently than what I originally planned when I drew up the comic. So, I tried a few faces after stumbling upon a site called howtodrawmanga.com. It seemed a bit odd at first, but I think it really helped me with facial structure (so to speak). I'll admit, not everything I wanted to erase erased properly, so there's a few pencil marks of another face there. Also, the second one (on the right, aka the side profile) came out a bit odd.

I'm pretty sure Lee's remix of Open Your Heart was on the True Blue album, but I could be wrong. Edit: .

They'll hit enough likes on the Korra Nation website soon, I reckon, so you might be able to watch there sometime tomorrow or Tuesday March 24th. :/ Unless someone had downloaded the episode and is planning on reuploading to Vimeo or Dailymotion.

And THANK GOD they didn't. I hear so much good about this anime and how much Hollywood adaptations (of just about anything) usually suck in comparison to the originals.
