I find it amusing that he and Scoob were both voiced by Don Messick (though Don Messick was pretty versatile and did a lot of little kid voices: Ruff, Boo Boo, Pixie and Dixie, Shag Bear...)
It's funny that you have this caste of old school voice actors who could do a thousand voices and are in everything, like Mel Blanc or Frank Welker.

Is it bad form to underline random things in my writing notes?
They're mostly ideas I want to remind myself to expand upon or come back to...

I just kinda worry because it comes mostly from reading years and years of wikis and the like...I'm underlining names of characters and locations the first time I mention them, as though I was linking to the relevant article. >_<
I guess it helps me see how my characters and stuff relate to each other, but it feels kinda spergtastic...

That is a review of the new Transformers game I didn't know was coming out that ties into the movie I didn't know was coming out. It's also really depressing because most of the review is the reviewer kind of wallowing in self-hatred.

Oh Rock Paper Shotgun.
what's wrong with RPS?
I think it's OK. No worse than any other game news site anyway.

It is generally good but a bit, uh, humorless sometimes? Also trying a bit too Tim Rogers-y sometimes.

well, it's Very Indie, so I suppose that is true.
I don't know who Tim Rogers is.
"Tim Rogers is the worst game reviewer working today. The man loves video games and video game culture. He seems to live video games. That sounds like a great quality for a reviewer and gaming journalist, but without the context of the real world he has become a living embodiment of everything that is wrong with gaming. When you live gaming everything you write on the subject becomes an introspective blog.
Tim obsessively name drops developers he has met, random Japanese words he learns and constantly strives to love the most obscure games possible. He spent an entire review fixated on the woman who sang a song on the soundtrack of the prequel to the game he was reviewing. He will ramble incoherently for upwards of twenty pages, jumping from topic to topic with little structure or point and lashing out at people who make fun of his ineptitude. He will philosophize and proselytize at an eighth-grade level and he will imbue even the simplest activity with intolerable quantities of forced quirkiness. For Christ's sake, he reviewed solicited GBA games using a system that involved riding a train around Japan."
Basically he's trying to be the Hunter S. Thompson of videogames, while skipping the "having adventures" and "doing drugs" and "being a good writer" part.
Yeah I'd describe that Transformers review as being entirely too much like a blog for my own tastes. The entire comments section was also people going "oh poor baby" which is only going to encourage this sort of thing in the future.
I have no hatred for bloggers, but media is segregated by function for a reason, if I'm clicking a review for the new Transformers game, I don't want to read about your midlife crisis.
I just kinda worry because it comes mostly from reading years and years of wikis and the like...I'm underlining names of characters and locations the first time I mention them, as though I was linking to the relevant article. >_<
I guess it helps me see how my characters and stuff relate to each other, but it feels kinda spergtastic...

just get a wiki for this stuff mon
I tried that for like two days before I found out I like writing it out with pencil and paper better...

Yay
I really like this one. I'm especially proud of the vidya journalist's facial expressions

guns. Poems that wrestle cops into alleys
and take their weapons leaving them dead

you guys have done me proud.

They are generally politically noxious, but oh well.
The Internet knows that.
