Lol Justin is gone more than Nick used to be.

I also want to say something about your Blogcast title but there’s no way to go about it without spoiling the game lol Arkham Knight is a really hard game not to spoil

I believe the X in Peter Molyneux is silent. Lol.

Steven Universe is on Hulu. There’s a lot of Cartoon Network and Adult Swim shows on there now. I’ve been been watching adventure time and I’m halfway through season 5 it gets so deep later on

I didn’t find the babadook that scary but I have a really high tolerance for horror movies I can watch really gory stuff without blinking an eye the babadook actually made me laugh at times. Lol.

Stuff we talked about: Nothing relating to the Vita.

Genuinely more TV/movie talk than Vita talk. Pretty disheartening how there’s no enthusiasm for Vita on the Blogcast.

I was hoping there could have been a mention of last weekend’s announcement at Anime Expo for Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth, which will be heading to the West on Vita and PS4 in 2016:

It still remains to be seen what, if any, other Bandai Namco Japan games might make it over to North America – though either of the two most current God Eater titles for Vita and PS4 (the recent God Eater 2: Rage Burst, or the upcoming God Eater: Resurrection) would be welcome on this side of the Pacific:

So far as ideas for new segments goes, it would be handy to have a “what’s on in Japan” segment perhaps once every month or two – to talk about some of the games which are being developed and published over there. While not all of those games end up coming over to the West for various reasons, it might help raise awareness and/or anticipation for those which do make the cut.

You guys know the title of this one should have been the vanishing of Bruce Wang…

Hey guys!
I’m finding myself in disbelief that Ryan and Nick haven’t watched The Babadook. As it falls into an almost art house category of horror, oozing with symbolism and imagery, I would’ve assumed this would’ve been right up their alley. I’m almost wondering, if they were to force themselves to sit through it, if the film itself would end up changing their minds…. Really guys, you might want to give it a go. :)

Also, I vote for relationship talk, only because I can already tell it would be incredibly entertaining. I met my partner when I was 15, and I’ve been with him ever since (19 years total!), so it’s not really relevant to me, but I can’t think of anything better than you guys dishing out relationship advice.
