We're down to just one missing issue of Sendai's P.S.X. magazine, and it's this one. Anyone out there possibly have this stashed away?

Hazy Bit #7 - I'm playing Onimusha: Warlords, the short but sweet first game in the Onimusha series. It hasn't held up the best, but it's still a solid action game. hazybit.beehiiv.com/p/onifans-on...

Ace Attorney Investigations: Miles Edgeworth - May 28, 2009 (DS, JP) In this first entry of the Ace Attorney spin-off series, you play as series mainstay Miles Edgeworth as he searches for evidence and interrogates witnesses. I haven't played it, but I assume there's a lot of finger-pointing.

What was your first console? 🎮 I got a SNES when I was 4 or 5 years old. A lot of my early memories are tied to that little grey and purple box. I spent so many summer days playing Super Mario World, Super Mario Kart, NBA Jam, and TMNT: Tournament Fighters with my brother and cousins.

Digimon World - May 23, 2000 (PS, NA) The first entry in the Digimon World series has you rescuing Digimon all over File Island. This one sticks with me for its approach to the monster raising RPG subgenre when compared to Pokemon and even its own sequels. Imagine Pokemon with bathroom breaks.

Baroque was originally released for Sega Saturn on May 21, 1998. This post-apocalyptic roguelike tasks players with reaching the bottom floor of the Neuro Tower to *checks notes* redeem themselves from sin and fix the world. Just like any other day, eh? Have you played Baroque or any of its ports?

RIP to voice actress Rachael Lillis, perhaps best known for her roles as Misty and Team Rocket's Jessie in the original Pokémon dub. A deeply underrated piece of the international franchise, Lillis found depth and sympathy amid the fantastic and the boisterous.

"Sometimes life is too uncertain to have regrets." - Goku Akira Toriyama passed away on March 1, 2024. This man's artistic endeavors have impacted me more than any other manga artist. He will be missed. This title, based on the 1997 anime remake, closely follows the OG manga over its 7 chapters.
