Bit of a smaller update this week, and I do apologize about the lateness. We have booze, women, and fast cars to blame for that.

This week, we have another article by one Mr. Newman. It’s a review of Prototype 2, in keeping with our love for sequels around here. Better get that bio ready, Sean.

In other, slightly more disturbing news, we have a nice Mother’s Day story from our good friend Jew, just in time to miss the holiday. Sorry, mom. I also have some plans to get some stuff up sometime mid-week, but I’ll keep those intentionally nebulous.

Finally, The Concast has a new episode available for your listening pleasure.

That’s all for now. Remember kids, alcohol is for wasteoids.

We here at Robot Boombox have been pretty busy as of late. As you may have noticed, the Rants section has transformed, Michael Jackson-like, into the Audio section. And the audio section itself holds our first real podcast, The Concast, where our hosts Mike, Ian, and Beau discuss anime in its various forms.

But that’s not all! Act now, and you’ll receive an updated About section featuring bios of the Robot Boombox staff. Just pay separate shipping and handling. I also updated the Articles section to have the newest content at the top, and you can expect a new article from yours truly sometime tomorrow.

Finally, one Sean Newman steps into the ThunderDome (…I think we’re calling it that) with an article on bear fighting. Will he be around for more articles? I suppose that all depends on what all five of you think.

I’d better not get any angry emails from PETA over this…

For this week’s round of updates, our good friend Jew provides us with some insight into the anime biz from the perspective of a guy with a connection to bittorrent and nothing better to do. First up is kid-friendly drivel, and then there’s drivel marketed to that one weird kid in the Linkin Park T-shirt who sits at the back of the bus and smells like Lipton soup mix and old cat hair. Both are definitely worth a read.

In other news, next week we can expect a much bigger update. I’ll finally be getting around to adding a proper About section, and I’ll be writing a couple things as well (Me? Writing articles on my own site? You don’t say!). You can also expect a few other interesting goodies, but I don’t want to ruin the surprise.

Fuck Bleach, Yu Yu Hakusho 4 lyfe!

In our latest article, Pete explains in great detail the fine art of trolling video games. Read this if you want to be able to induce maximum rage, as seen in the example photo to the right.

That’s all for this update. Have fun getting banned from Xbox Live.

Ah, Megaman Zero. Quite the bastion of perfect action platforming, but does its plot hold up to the same standards as its gameplay? The Flyin’ Jew puts that to the test in our latest article.

In other news, we finally have an update schedule. You guys can expect something new every Sunday night/Monday morning (depending on how much sleep I don’t get). Consider it something to read with your morning coffee (because who the hell reads the paper anymore?).

A reading from the book of Teh Internet:

And lo, on the Seventh Tuesday after The Great Purge, did The Flyin’ Jew stagger from the wasteland towards a new home, yet rife with promise. Many feats of strength, skill, and intestinal fortitude could be recorded here. And so did a new wave of awesomeness wash over that which is known as the World Wide Web…

For those of you who would like something in plain English, we here at The Boombox are proud to welcome Pete Kowalsky, AKA The Flyin’ Jew, to the site. All negative five of you who visit might recognize him as the man behind such literary titans as TehInter.net and EandN.net.

For his first article, Pete explains why Soul Calibur V is an extreme disappointment, and an insult to fans of the series.It’s definitely a good read.

Also, look forward to more content in the upcoming months, as another summer crests over the horizon like so much…toothpaste? I dunno, this metaphor thing is hard.

That’s all for now.

I’ve posted a review to Saints Row: The Third, which you can find by clicking here. That’s all for now.

As you can tell (or possibly are unable to tell), I’ve finally succeeded in integrating the news from the WordPress blog into the front of the site. And boy do I feel freaking accomplished in doing so.

Welcome to the Robot Boombox Blag, a special place where words can be sent directly from the base of my skull to the internet with minimal interference. This area will allow quick posts that might not be full features or articles to be generated quickly and with minimal hassle. It should be pretty awesome.
