Ash wrote this one entirely on her own, which is why it’s so ra ra feminism ra. I hassled her to play Ico for about a month, and once she did she found herself infuriated at the game. As much as I loved the game the first time I played it several years ago, I find it difficult to argue with her now.

That said, Shadow of the Colossus is still tits.

Leave him alone, lady. He just wants to watch television.

We recorded a new HAWPcast, and you can watch it here.

There are SPOILERS for Inception and Shutter Island.  If you’re worried about that sort of thing, just skip to the twenty minute mark and you’ll be fine. Probably. Unless I’ve forgotten something.

Which I likely have.

Either way, this episode is about Inception and great fictional villains.  Hope you enjoy it.

A while ago, I detailed my intention to do a particular thing to Ashley Davis, at a particular time, to a particular song.

Thanks to this late wedding present by Manic Maverick, I no longer need to.

(I think the way he drew my mouth really sells it.)

I think Ash’s performance in this latest HAWP is probably one of her best. Though using the word “performance” in reference to a video like this, in any capacity, is probably a mistake.

Anyway, hope you dig the new episode.

In case you don’t know, Once Upon a Pixel is HAWP’s spinoff series that retells known videogame stories in interesting and wacky ways. This week’s episode is basically a retelling of the Prinny mythos from Disgaea, except framed as a Public Service Announcement.

You should watch it.

It’s pretty cute.

Boosh!

The site doesn’t mention that Ashley Davis, creator and star of Once Upon a Pixel, will be there as well (probably because I didn’t, you know, tell them that).

Neither Ash, Blavis nor I have ever actually been to MAGfest, so the experience should be fun. If nothing else, I’ll get to meet the guy who voices Duke Nukem and make him grunt “balls of steel” for the eight thousandth time in a row.

Hey, another HAWPcast. Our situation has changed — I’m in Texas, Ash is still in Arizona — but our own meandering, rarely interesting brand of conversation has not.

You can listen to it here. In it, we talk about the Actual Movie that Ash is going to be in, the awesomeness of Toy Story 3, and, at the very end, and for the last time in a very long while (ideally, ever), we talk about the most recent episodes of Doctor Who.

MASSIVE SPOILERS FOR TOY STORY 3

Ashley Davis and I were married last week. This post will highlight my favorite moments of the ceremony, just in case you couldn’t make it but for some reason are desperate to know what happened.

You can also check out SenorDoucheoisie’s Destructoid post for video of the actual ceremony, as well as an adorable/awesome WarioWare microgame he made to commemorate the event. In honesty, his post is more comprehensive and detailed than this one will be, so you might just wanna read that one.

Kicking open the door to the bathroom while Ashley Davis is on the toilet with this song queued up to 00:25 and blaring at full blast behind me, before shouting “IT’S TIME TO FIND ADVENTURE” and continuing to stare at her, silent and frozen in adventurous pose, until she finishes her business.

I honestly dunno how chazzhay managed to make this so quickly — doesn’t it take, like, a lot of work to get two Sims to love each other enough to get married?

Either way, check it out. It’s pretty kickass.
