Rest in Peace, Kon-sensei
Tonight marks a sad night for the Otaku community. Anime director and writer Satoshi Kon has died at the age of 47 from cancer.

Gamer Diary: Professor Layton and the Curious Village prt.1
After logging almost 200 hours on Pokemon, and still not catching the Legedary Birds, I decided to play a new game. Originally, I was going to buy The World Ends With You, but a glitch on Amazon was only showing the really expensive copies, so after reco… more »
