Relevant Tweets involving Toonami straight from the horse's mouth:

Okay guys! About to start the info dump. Regular Twitter friends: I apologize in advance for clogging your feed.

So: New Toonami! First things first. For now, that IS the schedule. I know I said we wouldn't tell you, but the higher ups changed that.

We will not be showing Naruto, DBZ, etc for now. The rights to those shows are owned by our competition or are out of our price range.

SPEAKING OF WHICH: Something you should know about THIS Toonami: We have very,very little $$. This experiment will need ratings success...

...to receive more funding for new shows, more Tom animation, etc. I'm thankful for the $$ we've gotten, but it isn't a lot.

Toonami will have to prove itself to get more resources, just like it had to do when we first launched.

TOM: Will be voiced as always by Steve Blum. Who is doing it for love. Just like we are. Tom will be an updated hi-res version of Tom 3.0.

The Absolution will be a slightly different but almost identical version of the one from the Tom 3.0 era as well.

There will be no SARA for now. She costs too much to make. But if we can bring her back, we sure will.

We will try to have some new content each week- game reviews, music videos, content pieces etc. As much as we can afford and make.

Music: Music will come from a number of places: Ghostly, Warp Records, Victory Records, Now Again records, as well as...

...friends of ours like therealelp, flyinglotus, Chris Devoe, Ben Burton, and many others. No, we won't be using JBV.

Peter Cullen will NOT be the voice of the promos. He's busy with Transformers and Eeyore and doesn't do many promos. Love you Peter!

Schedule again: you are all entitled to your opinions, but we feel good about it. And yes, Kim Manning is programming it. Love you Kim!

Lastly, just want to say thank you to all who have supported and brought it back. If you can KEEP supporting us, we will have more $$...

...which means more shows, more Tom footage, Sara, etc. SO THANK YOU. And keep it up!

And one last thing: this is my only Twitter account, and I'm considering going private, so don't take it personal. It's getting too crazy.

That's it for now! I will answer GOOD questions for the rest of today. Fire away if you're not stupid. If you are... shhhhhh

Oh, and schedule was updated, looks like we're getting Casshern Sins and Deadman Wonderland.

I had better luck with Special Stage 7 than I did with 6.

6 took me like 5 or 6 tries, 7 only took 3.

I honestly thought they were going to be terrible like S2's stages, but instead I really liked them.

I thought the bosses would be better though, I really hated Oil Desert's boss (And all climbing bosses, they aren't fun.), And while the final boss wasn't terrible, I'm still having issues understanding how Super Sonic is weaker than the rolling combo when it came to the bosses shield.

Yeah, the schedule they have up on the site is filler.
Williams Street is keeping it secret till the 26th. As they say "Old School TV Style"

No longer true as the people in charge changed that.

Well Toonami also doesn't officially return until the 26th anyways.

That schedule was for the 26th.

On that part you're supposed to go slow.

Huh, I'll give that a try later.

That worked, 314 is such an odd number to collect.

Also beat the game, still missing 6 Red Rings and a couple of trophies (Which I can safely say I won't be getting, Don't really feel like playing the entire game again to get Endurance Run, really don't want to experience the frustration of beating all the bosses with Super Sonic, ESPECIALLY The Oil Desert and Final Boss. And I really don't feel like playing Multiplayer, even if I can just do it by myself. I'll collect the rest of the red rings, but that's probably it.)

Nice line up.

Its just the normal line up with 200% more bleach than before.
Maybe this means they will have 3 new episodes a night as opposed to just one, get the damn thing over with quicker.

FMA, Brotherhood, [chameleon sting]ing FLCL, GiTS and Cowboy Bebop (never watched Bebop or GiTS, but I heard they're amazing). Looks like an awesome lineup to me. Bleach is easily the least interesting thing there, and more FMA is always great.

They could have flooded it with Naruto like the last time Toonami was still broadcasting. Thankfully, they didn't.

We can thank Disney for preventing such a horrible disease.

Posted on: May 17, 2012, 06:59:42 PMAh, looking at the internet Schedule, there is only three hours of Toonami (The late hours, naturally), And its just Bleach, FMA:B, and Cowboy Bebop repeated twice. So its probably just a filler schedule.

Link here. Hopefully it isn't so much comedy in the real deal, would be quite a shame for them to [tornado fang] this up.

How far are you into the game? Cause you actually can't use the moves right away. Can't team swim until Sylvania 2 and you can't team roll until Sylvania 3.

I just beat Sylvania.
I feel rather [tornado fang]ing stupid now, though it is dumb that you have to "Unlock" the team skills.
They should've made that more clear.

Though, I will ask, is it even possible to collect all the rings in Special Stage 1 with one player? I know speeding up allows you to grab rings to the side of you, but there's an area at the beginning of the third section where I've tried constantly to grab them all (Right before the first set of electric things.) and I keep missing 5 or 6 of them in one of the sets.

Vix: Still, there was far less leeway in that one than the others. Retry option helped too.

RMZX: Tails does that when you hit the call button. Which is useless in single player cause you activate a team command with Tails being anywhere on or off screen. So it sounds like your R2 or RT or whatever button might be on the fritz.

But I'm hitting Square, not R2.

So I just got E2.

Is there some reason why Tails is apparently a [tornado fang]ing ghost? I want to do the team combos and all he does is run into me (or jump into me) and become see-through.

To think I wasted $15 bucks on this just to have THE MAIN GIMMICK completely drop out on me.

Those, sadly aren't even the worst offenders.

Say "hello," Ichi Go.

Oh my, somebody who can't even make original names so he just modifies existing names and apparently that makes a whole new character.

If creativity were that easy then everybody would be creative.

even if they did, it's being said that all previous leaders and champions return, so that would include wallace (he was a gym leader first) and juan if they're going by emerald as well.

Must be that they were showing off the more well known ones.

« on: May 13, 2012, 08:44:56 AM »

Its that time of year again?

Oh boy.

Anyway, Speculation time:

Nintendo:
Showing off the Wii U, maybe a look at Pikmin 3.
New Super Mario Bros "Mii" will probably show up too.

Sony:
LittleBigPlanet Racing (Or whatever they're calling it)
Probably something with the Vita

Microsoft:
I got nothing, I don't follow Xbox stuff since I don't own a 360. But if I have to guess there will probably be Halo 4.

EA:
Sports and such.

Activision:
COD and such.

Capcom:
Super Street Fighter X Tekken
Demon may Croon

Square-Enix:
Versus XIII Confirmed to not be appearing.

Anyway, maybe this year I'll actually follow E3 instead of completely forgetting about it like i have done for the past 3 years.

where the [tornado fang] is wallace

he's being too fabulous to join in.

Though I'd like to think it's because they're following off of Ruby/Sapphire and not Emerald.

The Legend of Zelda (NES/Virtual Console). At first I was thinking of getting Metroid to relive good times with Zero Mission, but then I thought "You know, at some point in my life I need to play the original Zelda". PurpleTriforce sum this game's difficulty too well but I'm not regreting it.

Can somebody please tell me how Zelda 1 is considered hard?

Zelda 2 fine I can understand, but not 1.

A nice change of pace from the usual lot of articles that I see, with published authors, including Stephanie Meyer, telling fanfic authors that we're nothing but lazy time-wasters with no talent.

Implying that she isn't what she just called Fanfic writers.
Regarding the no-talent part, of course.

I would like its design more if it actually resembled a Knightmare Frame in any way.
It looks too detailed and too advanced for something that was supposedly around at the time of the first season.

Plus its got Zoids/IGPX-esque CGI.

Having overpowered Mary Sues is much better than ruining established characters, am I right Mirbs?

Most of us had overpowered Mary Sues.
I'm no exception, hell if anything I'm a glaring example.
Though one can't help but look back on some of those RP's and cringe.

It would be rather nice if we could all work to make one that is halfway decent.

i hate when people join rps and don't make their own characters. i mean, it's like why not use your own damn imagination to make some original characters instead of taking some premade ones and turning whatever the rp is into a horrible crossover fanfic.

Oh dear god you're talking about me oh no what do i do.

Nah, i'm only joking. But I know I was that bad when it came to my RP'ing.

^I got the 3DS version so I never encounter the "It's a homing attack" 80 times or so... plus I think the 3DS version had a much more fun battle against the Final Boss unlike the the console version I saw on YouTube.

Also, Sonic the Hedgehog 4 Episode 2 is already out? I have to check it out if that's the case!

May 15th.

The videos are from Beta 8, which was accidentally sold on Steam for a small period of time.
