      Jimquisition is an amazing reviewer/games journalist. I like how pro-consumer she* is. Obligatory fuck Konami.

            It’s been about 5 years since they came out, so if you haven’t been following them in recent years you wouldn’t know! They go by James Stephanie Sterling now.

              He finally missed a monday a few months back.

              I don’t think his heart is really in it any more.

                They went on a break not too long ago. I wouldn’t blame them for being tired of doing it after this long.
