ADV and Their Amazing Changing Boxes

I’ve gotten a few questions from friends about this, saw Nebs wonder about it, and seen at least two people claim they had to for ‘legal reasons’, so I felt it was about time I explain what is up with ADV re-releasing all kinds of old thinpak boxes they’ve done with new covers, and why [...]

What is Bob’s Game?

This guy named Bob (Robert Pelloni) has been spending five years making an RPG for the Nintendo DS.  Instead of battles you have conversations.  He made all the graphics, story, and other assets himself.

The issue with it is WHERE the connector points are… Yeah… Well, if you [...]
