LIVESTREAM UPDATE:

The next livestream will be this Friday, September 26th at 7pm est!  Based off how quickly I’ve been able to get home from work, I feel fairly comfortable moving the streams back to their regular time.

We finished up Apollo Justice this weekend, so it’s time to move on to a new game!  Up next… Resident Evil 6!  I picked it up during the Capcom Sale on Steam last week or so.  I’ve never played it before, and though I’ve heard it isn’t so good, I’m really excited to play it!

See you then!

END LIVESTREAM UPDATE!

I first heard about the Professor Layton vs. Phoenix Wright game nearly four years ago, and I’ve been waiting not-so-patiently ever since.  Between the two series, Phoenix is definitely my favorite, but I’ve always seen the Layton games as a spiritual sibling and enjoy them both.

When I heard the game was finally out, I had to pick it up.  So far, it doesn’t disappoint!

Actually, in many ways this might be one of the most shocking games I’ve ever played.  The Layton series has always been very cute-sy, and despite the most recent Phoenix entry getting an M rating, it’s violence is never really front and center.

I want to avoid spoilers, so I won’t get into specifics, but holy heck, the violence has been incredibly in-your-face so far.

Not just any violence… there’s been some really brutal stuff.

I have no idea how this PL vs. PW got a T rating while Dual Destinies got an M.

Not that this bothers me, but PL vs. PW even has a character clearly drinking alcohol.

…I have no idea how the ESRB works, and may never.
