Busou Shinki shifted

Just a heads-up for those of you who visit Fuyoh! for updates and links about Konami’s Busou Shinki line: I’m in the process of copying the toy-related entries on this site over to my new toy site, Fanmode.net. I’ve just reposted four primer-like entries on Busou Shinki at Fanmode and henceforth all Busou Shinki updates will posted there.

Be sure to check the fan-letter from a certain “Kurt Busiek”.

Guild Wars: To do in 2008

Vizunah Square trouble.
I’m really glad ArenaNet dropped this style of mission. Two teams of players might mean two sets of players with wildly different mission objectives. One team might be a meticulously constructed group striving to earn Master’s while another might be a PUG consisting of low-level players with low-grade armour merely content to complete the mission. Pre-Heroes, this mission was a royal pain in the derriere. I recall being incredibly frustrated trying to get Master’s for my Assassin.

Chibi-style.
Rough pencils but it looks very promising. Favourite.

Oktobertfest 2007 still on.
The original organiser of this fan-organised event quit the game entirely but the event is still on schedule thanks to heroic fans who’ve stepped up to the plate.

My Ascalon.
There’s a germ of a really great idea here. With melancholic music and greater emphasis on the juxtaposition between pre- and post-Searing Ascalon, you’d have a really moving video.

Jora wallpaper.
None the Wiser had never even heard of the game before he saw the concept art in the PC Gamer Ultimate Guild Wars Guide issue but he was so inspired he decided to create this beautiful 1680×1050 wallpaper.

Nani kore?
What the …? What’s my Necro doing in Japan?
