Illegal Operation: Back from the Grave
Carda here.
While appropriate, the post title has nothing to do with my laptop. It’s back up, so I’m able to start posting again.
No, the title of this week’s little rant concerns a game that is near and dear to my heart: Uru Live, also known as Myst Online. It’s been proclaimed dead multiple times, but it just keeps coming back. What is it about this game that grants it perpetual Lazarus status? To understand the forces at work here, let’s have ourselves a little flashback to late 2003, and the release of Uru: Ages Beyond Myst.
Anime Ramblings
FlashMan here.
Our regular Saturday columnist, Carda, is being held up by technical difficulties (his laptop’s power cord, like mine, is damaged). I decided, hey, it’s been a while since I wrote something, and I imagined he could use the break anyway.
Props to NetRaptor and Carda both for a continuous stream of fantastic articles for Eye Lazor Beams. I am extremely thankful to have such talented writers on staff; if you haven’t read any of their fiction, I can’t plug them enough.
On the news front; Break and I are coming off of hiatus soon so you can expect new content to trickle back in. We haven’t forgotten about the project we teased way back last year on National Dreamcast/Ice Fairy Day, we haven’t forgotten about the audio columns, and most important of all we haven’t forgotten about you, our faithful followers.
That said, here’s a few disjointed ramblings on anime series I’ve watched recently. Spoilers abound, you have been warned. More after the jump!
