Maybe your neighbors here in Arizona will pick up on this if it goes well. :)

Consider your bracket busted  . |
Hush you! (It's pretty common to have a 12 seed beat a 5 seed going in, but with that abysmal first half... bleh - at least they made a game of it in the 2nd half.) Speaking of the tourney, "The Pit" is a pretty nice venue to watch games being played. If tickets hadn't been so astronomically expensive, I might have enjoyed seeing some of the tourney live.

And while the news itself is still kind of weird since I've never really paid attention to anything originating from New Mexico aside from Brian Urlacher, I guess it's cool that your state is now expanding all the way to the "Land of the Rising Sun" . |
Yeah, good ol' Urlacher - IIRC, they sell his Jerseys at the Lobo store too. Anyway, I'm still very curious about this news item and the plans to get some production work here. Heck, maybe they could get a dubbing studio out here and I can audition for roles. There's irony for you - I'm not a big fan of dubs, but I love to act - so if I were to actually get in something, people like me will be complaining about people like me.

Maybe you would have to change your opinion, eh? You too could become a dubbophile!

Remember that it does not say just "anime" but "anime and video games." Any which way you slice it, video games is a much larger money maker than anime. And I venture to say that most game programmers don't need to be all that creative, at least artistically. Heck, even alot of people in the anime industry don't need to be creative, marketing people and what not. |
Yes, because there are definately not any creative, artistic games on the way. There haven't been any articles about video games approaching artistry in the New York Times. Shigeru Miyamoto of Nintendo doesn't create games to connect with people's emotions. In no way is Killer 7 meant to be a new standard of video games as an art form, with articles on the direction in the likes of Nintendo Power and other prominent video game magazines... Nope, video games will never achieve anything higher than letting people jump over barrels and blindly, emotionlessly shoot people.
