The movement on to PSP games.
So unless you’ve been under a rock, you should know by now that nearly every new otome game being released is PSP only.
I grabbed this schedule off Girls’ Style and as you can see if its not PSP its DS and MULTI is PSP and DS. Not a single PC release in sight! I decided to just give in and I bought myself a PSP this past week. Unfortunately that means I can no longer broadcast my otome gaming. I was unable to get RemoteJoy Lite to work on my Windows XP Virtual PC and I’m not going to disable driver signature on Windows 7 because it’s unsafe especially since I broadcast on a daily basis. While I still have a hefty PS2 backlog left, a lot of PS2 to PSP game ports have additional content/scenario/CGs added on to them. Therefore a game I may have originally intended to play on the PS2, I want to maybe play it on the PSP instead. The good news is I can take screenshots so I’ll keep my gameplay tumblr updated, but my broadcast will be few and far between and eventually I will probably stop broadcasting all together. I’m sure there will be PC game releases in the future but a lot of them will probably be R-18 and well I’m rather tired of that genre so that’s another reason I won’t be playing too many of those.
Anyway just thought I’d give a heads up for anyone who has been following the broadcast & secretly lurking ;D. Maybe someday they will release a better PSP to PC broadcast program but for now I have no intentions of purchasing a capture card so that will be the end of that. Thank you to everyone who’s watched it up to now. I’ll still broadcast all the games I can so be sure to stop by if you haven’t yet!
Broadcast Frustration orz;;
Alright so we got Justin.tv, Ngame.tv and own3d.tv. I’ve used all 3 so far and the conclusion I’ve come up with:
Justin.tv – chat works, video recording works, quality is so so, often has lag/d/c issues when some faggot streams a soccer game, announces to twitter if it feels like it (doesn’t work for me) otherwise a share button.
Ngame.tv - fairly new, often has buffering issues, chat lags some of my friends browsers, no video recording working, servers have had a lot of maintenance/downtime recently, no announcing automatically to twitter but has a share button.
Own3d.tv – no automatic recording, excellent stream quality, java chat that’s very awkward to get to unless you use an MIRC client, no announcing to twitter in any way, no real way of following user for broadcast announcements. Since the chat is java, a lot of Japanese text doesn’t show up either…also it totally died on me while I was broadcasting & writing this post.
So I’ve been jumping back & forth now and I don’t even know what to do. I was on ngame for half a month but they’re just not ready and while own3d quality is great, the inconvenience of the chat is depressing and now my chat room is mostly dead unless I redirect people to the java chat on quake net =_=; So now I’ve temporarily returned to Justin unless one of the other 2 improves or unless Justin has soccer game lag again in which case I’d use one of the other sites as an alternative? I don’t even know what to do anymore. I guess my only advice is, be sure to check the link on the blog (the tv gif) every time to see where I’m broadcasting as that will probably be changing depending on what’s happening with each of these sites….or you can just bookmark all 3 and check them simultaneously xD; Sorry for all the inconvenience, I’m just as frustrated as you guys are!
2 Year Anniversary! (✪ω✪)

My computer blew up.
Well specifically I had a motherboard failure, but basically it’s the same thing. I ordered a replacement from Dell but I think it’s been caught in Dell’s replacement part delay of doom. It’s a total ripoff too ($260 for a new motherboard) and they want to charge me $80 to have some guy come in to replace it if we can’t do it ourselves.
I’m so angry at my lack of knowledge of putting together PCs. I wish I could just buy the right parts and put a computer together but I have no idea what to buy. I don’t want to spend money on a new computer because other than the mother board, all my other system components work fine. I think my video card is okay, my CD/DVD drive I barely ever use for anything and I have 3 gigs of ram + 500 gig hard drive. I don’t want to just “sell it on ebay”. I think they can still be salvaged…but I don’t know a thing about putting together a computer, or the compatibility of anything.
I’m extremely upset about this. While I can still visit sites like poupee girl from my phone or at work, I can’t play otome games. I can’t play tartaros. I can only login to tartaros from JP’s computer to get my login count but I can’t really play properly from his laptop (I don’t know how he does it.) I thought I would be able to be back up and running by this weekend but now it feels like getting back on to a computer feels further and further away. I don’t know when I will be back but I guess don’t expect too many updates on this site until then :’(
Tartaros Online CB impressions.
My Soma-kun
First I want to explain something. My Japanese sucks a lot more than you guys think it does. Sure I can get the basic hang of stuff but when I want to write out detailed thoughts about something my Japanese is watered down to “I like it, there’s a few bugs, I got new clothes and I made a video.” Honestly it’s a pain in the ass. I thought that blogging about Tartaros on so-net would give me points for Postar but apparently it doesn’t unless I blog about gamepot’s games…so yea after posting 3 entries I decided I’m gonna blog about Tartaros here.
To avoid unnecessary people finding this site though, I’ve blocked all search engines from indexing it. I will also not provide any translations or registration guides here, this will simply be a game diary, which is what this blog is supposed to be in the first place. I really don’t like the idea of having to run away somewhere because certain retards keep accessing this blog but I also am sick of limiting my writing because my grasp of the language sucks when it comes to MMO terminology. Until recently, I didn’t even know what the fuck the kanji for “Vs” was in Pangya sigh -_-; My Pangya blogging will continue to be in Japanese for obvious reasons, but for now I’d like to blog about Tartaros in English. (And my blog never made it into the fansite list anyway so not like it matters at this point.)
I’m also considering the return of registered user only commenting but I’ve not completely decided on that yet. We’ll see how the engine blocking goes. It only takes a few people to ruin it for everyone. So anyway on to the impressions. Read the rest of this entry
1 Year Anniversary!(ﾉ´▽｀)ﾉ
Well technically I think I started this blog back in Sept. or Oct. 2008 but because of the stupid DDOS attack to our previous host, the blog was reborn on December 3rd. A lot has happened in the past year. Playing Pangya Wii, A18 closing, NtreevBR reopening, leaving & coming back to Pangya Japan. Playing other mmos like Megaten, Bright Shadow, and Prius Online. Starting new dressup games like TinierMe and continuing old ones like Poupee. Reviving my interest in otome games was a big change as well. I scanlated a bunch of pangya 4komas which is something I’ve also wanted to do for some time as well.
It’s a shame a lot of the things that had originally been the foundation of this blog have to come to an end. Stuff happens, morons appear and ruin it for everyone. My focus for the next year is mostly just on otome games at this point. I can’t deal with American company incompetence anymore so I don’t really see myself blogging about any US MMOs in the future. Any Japanese MMOs I blog about will be in Japanese, elsewhere, since usually Japanese games give you rewards/incentives for blogging about their games anyway – and it’ll keep the idiots at bay.
Thank you all for being through it with me for all this time. I always love reading everyone’s comments and reactions to updates. Thank you to those for reading but not commenting – your lurking is still appreciated 
Plus I talked to most of you on twitter or in game anyway. Here’s to another year! (人´∀`)ｧﾘｶﾞﾄﾈ♪
