About Me
I'm Josh "unangbangkay" Tolentino, and this is my cry for attention.
I'm also the News EditorJapanator. Come visit, and see me gush about things not directly related to video games. Or not. But hey, diversifying your interest in me is definitely something I would encourage.
As a bit of shameless self-promotion, I also write about games for the California Literary Review.
Here's a personal blog-thing that I write in when I remember to: Death By Eroge!
Below are some of my pre-staff C-blog works. Consider them an origin story of sorts, as proof that you too may one day "go grayscale"!
-Resident Evil 5 isn't racist, just ignorant and unambitious
- Dude, be cool! Don't hate on Final Fantasy so much!
-Don't Blame the Genre, Blame the Game: Why JRPGs Don't Intrinsically Suck
-Thoughts on The Escapist's Piracy Issue
-Sorry Doomsayers, Japan Isn't In (much) Development Danger.
-Can Critics Be Trusted When They Don't Trust Themselves?
-The Colorless Mask: Insult or Insight?
-Your Fate is in the Cards: "The Fool's Journey" in Persona 3
-Persona 3: The Rest of The Fool's Journey
-Thoughts on Piracy: Why My Eyelid is Twitching
-Persona should be called "Pimp-sona" and its heroes are enviable pimptastic jerks
-Truth and Reconciliation: Why Persona 4's ending is super awesome
-You wanna buy some goddamn eroge. DO IT DO IT DO IT

-Playing With Others: Playing Alone, Together
-A Time to Destroy: To Hell With Your Rules, I'm Cheating

....Not that I really needed an excuse, but now I can say that I'm doing this in honor of the coming DLC packs!
The original-size pics are in the gallery, seeing as Dtoid still suffers from that auto-scaling issue. Usually, company NCOs are portrayed as grizzled old foul-mouthed vets that keep the company together in the face of incompetent officers. I think I prefer this one... 
Despite the somber tone of the image, all my mind can focus on is the ABSOLUTE TERRITORY 
Someone asked for the original version of that header image from the last image dump. Here it is: 
What really makes her outfit is the fact that it lacks sleeves. 
My friend claims that VC isn't really a Japanese game, and his proof is that Selvaria's umbrella isn't transparent. Very persuasive, that argument. 
If you haven't heard, one of the DLC packs will have you working on Selvaria's squad. I anticipate much cursing as Alicia zips past your lines like a lightning bolt dressed in a baker's bonnet. 
Elysse Moore, the loliest lancer on the face of God's green earth. 
Someone REALLY likes Elysse. 
It just doesn't feel right if the graphics are as edgy as the story, as I said before, especially since Jane's a psycho. 
This should be a flag, waved when the doors open at any nerd convention. 
Isara Gunther, the loliest tank driver on God's green earth.

Also I can't wait for the anime.
If not at least for the epic tits :D
SLOWLY?! DO IT NOW NOW NOW GO
BUY IT!
As foolish as you've been, I can't blame you. Sega failed at everything except the decision to release it in the first place and translate it properly. They released a niche game in a niche genre with a niche appearance and niche premise, with no substantial promotional support, all in the most crowded holiday period in gaming history.
Big fat surprise that the only people who bought were the ones who planned to already and those that were converted later on.
