Fictional Character Face-Off: Sonic the Hedgehog vs. Samus Aran

Sonic the Hedgehog was a blur as he made his way to Dr. Eggman's latest fortress. It was sorta boring for him actually, another day, another scheme to stop.   "If only something interesting happened..." he muttered to himself.   Meanwhile, a ship was descending down the atmosphere. Inside housed the intergalactic bounty hunter Samus Aran. An anonymous client had offered a very nice sum of money for her to terminate a certain speedy, blue hedgehog. Landing at the coordinates given to her, Samus n

Fictional Character Face-Off: Link vs. Sora

So remember this? Of course you don't. Well the gist of this whole thing is that I pit two fictional characters against each other for you wonderful people in the blogosphere to debate who the victor is going to be. Normally, I'd write up a quick narrative on how the battle started, but I cannot figure out how to do so for this match, so we're going to skip to the rules. For simplicity, the Link discussed is the Adult Link from Ocarina of Time. Both characters have access to all weapons and abil

FCFO: BZPower vs. The World!

BZPower was chilling like a cool person (not cool dude) does, until every website in existence walked up to it and said (in unison), "U are not good website, we beat you up!"   Then BZP laughed at their faces and said "Nu-uh, you guys can't stand up to my awesome!" BZP then showed off it's awesome, scaring the website.   "Anyways," BZP said, "Fight!"   --------------------------------------------   Yeah so it's BZP's twelfth anniversary, so because the site has been around so long, it's obviousl

EVO 2016

So I haven't been on here much lately, haven't I? Sorry bout that, but I've been getting into the Pokken Tournament competitive community and been trying to improve my play hard these last few months. Also been watching people stream, talking on Discord, etc.   Since it was basically 5 hours away from me, I decided to visit the Evolution Championship Series 2016 to compete in Pokken Tournament and meet the people of the community! I've been practicing hard to get in shape for this event, but we'

Check out Sonic: Pure Chaos!

Everyone, you probably don't know this, but my friend here Sybre has an OTC comic series going on called Sonic: Pure Chaos.   It's an original plot with fan-characters, and I think it holds a lot of promise, so I'm putting this on my blog as an attempt to get his series more exposure, as he could use the comments and(constructive)criticism.   Thank you for reading this entry, and I suggest you give the series a go!

Bravely Default Outsells Lightning Returns

I am not surprised at all by this revelation, but it's still the best news I've heard about the game yet. I choose to take it as a testament that maybe classic mechanics, plot, characters, etc. aren't bad. Experimentation is great and all, but the general opinion I can see of the Final Fantasy franchise as a whole now isn't very positive. =P Hopefully the game's good sales leads to the localization of Bravely Second worldwide, and maybe a new franchise that can get up there with the JRPG kings t

Blatant Advertising

Are you a Kid Icarus fan? Are you an RPG fan? Are you all of the above?   Well then check out Kid Icarus: Unanswered Prayers, the ultimate RPG!   Are you a human or a spirit? Will you ally with the Human Army or the Underworld? Or will you even aid Pyrrhon and Phosphora as they try to uncover the mystery of what happened to the gods?   YOU get to choose! Have fun!   (I'm advertising this because it has a severe lack of players. Well don't just stand there, check it out!)

Blarg AMA fad.

You get the drill, ask me absolutely anything!   So long as it is BZPsafe, and does not involve farm animals.

Best Sonic Final Boss Music #15

Sorry for not updating this yesterday, I was busy. I'll try to make this list daily, but no promises. Anyways, onto the next song!   #15: Sonic 4: Episode 2 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kqWrJBhXOF0   Most of my problems from the Episode 1 theme are still present, but not as extreme. It's ever so slightly longer, and each part has some variety, with an attempt at the end to build up an "epic" feel. However, I still don't like the instrumentation, and the song is still on the short side. In a nu

Best Sonic Final Boss Music #14

Okay, now I consider all songs from hereon out to be within the decent, good, or amazing ranges. The past two songs were in the mediocre range. Anyways, onto the music!   #14: Sonic the Hedgehog 1     Now the Classic series that people love so much gets some representation! Like the last two, I believe this song to be a bit on the short and repetitive side, though nowhere near as pronounced. I also like how this song has a greater sense of finality that the last two lacked.   Tune in tommorow (

Best Sonic Final Boss Music #13

So here we are again! Apologies for not uploading yesterday, I kinda forgot... But anyways, let's get this starting up again!   #13: Shadow the Hedgehog http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ePWUTKEKySs   Now we've got some lyrical compositions going on! To be honest, I Am... All of Me has always been one of my least favorite Crush 40 songs. I know some people will like a few of the metal overtones going on, but it's just needlessly dark and edgy for a Sonic game. Though that's a complaint I have with

Behold, My Masterpiece

You're welcome, internet.   (Btw I got the Rayquaza sprite from someone in The Spriter's Resource a while ago. I made this years ago, and had to dig it back up. =P)

Awesome Videogame Music #1

Yay! Embedding YouTube videos! It is happy day! To celebrate, how about some awesome songs from videogames?   For our first entry, we're looking at songs from two fangames, Sonic: Before the Sequel, along with After the Sequel.   Now, I have to say, the soundtracks from both songs are amazing. It's proffessional quality stuff, made by extremely talented people(one of which is working on Final Fantasy!) Both soundtracks have an amazing variety of songs, and I will list some of my favorites below.

AWESOME SUNDAE

TRY AND TELL ME THIS IS NOT THE BEST SUNDAE IN EXISTENCE.   Yes, I posted a picture of myself. It's also the one that looks absolutely ridiculous.   By the way, this was taken on my birthday this year.

ATTN: Looking For Composers!

There is a game project I am assisting with by Unown Mercury, and so far besides me, there's a spriter. But while he might be able to mess around somewhat with LMMS, it would be waaaaaaaaaay better if we had an actual composer on board! So anyone who's potentially interested in partnering with him, I suggest you contact him through PM. Just keep in mind that the position will be unpaid.

An OTC Collab Story Idea...

As the title suggests, none of this is final. I literally just came up with it today and I haven't set anything in stone yet.   So anyways, my idea is a story centered around side-protagonists (so no generic shopkeeps from a JRPG or anything, people with a name and impact on the story but not serving as the main point of view) from different media getting invited to a sort of... Vacation home? Vacation neighborhood? Not sure what it's called. Anyways, said characters get a letter saying somethin

An Omega Adventure: Part 5-Health Hazards and Maxie

Jim made it out of Mauville, only for it to turn out the HM Rock Smash was necessary to pass through. He then returned to the Pokemon Center and withdrew King Duuuh.., who was unhappy at being required to perform actual work, but happy he would be returned to the PC immediately afterwards. after traversing through the terrain, Jim proceeded to catch even more Pokemon.   Pokemon Acquired!-Pikablu the Marill The Marill line always has that cheery smile on their face, which must mean they're all ha

An Omega Adventure: Part 4-Contests, Rivals, and Evolutions

Stunned, Jim went up to each Magma grunt in the line and questioned what they were doing. Responses ranged from telling him to stop cutting in line to mentioning how they were polite for paying the entrance fee..... And one who wondered if they should take the museum by force. While his unease was only heightened, Jim backed off and let the grunts go, as he didn't want to have to deal with fighting all of them at once right then and there.   The trainer rushed off to the shipyard, where Captain

An Omega Adventure: Part 3-Brawly Down and Magma Rising

(author note, I forgot to do some profiles last post, so I'll add them to the current list of Pokemon Acquired)   In no time at all, Jim was already at Dewford. The young boy thanked Mr. Briney as both of them wished each other good luck. First things first, Jim took time to explore the small town, talking to everyone in it. One child in particular rambled about how Potion Festivals were the hip and 'in' thing, asking the trainer in the making if they were hip at his hometown too. Jim answered n

An Omega Adventure: Part 2-One Down, Seven To Go

After resting in the Pokemon Center, Jim decided to try out the 'Pokemon-Amie' feature. He took several Pokemon from his party out to play, feed them Pokepuffs, and bounce yarn off their heads. Though it was strange to pet a Beldum at first, Jim soon found himself growing ever closer to his team.   Yet the fun had to end sometime, and the boy set out to Rustboro to challenge the Gym Leader, Roxanne. Everything was well and fine, until he reached Petalburg Woods. A strange man in a red outfit fro
