The end of the game.com

Mr. Sound-About:
I should probably be packing a suitcase for my imminent trip to Japan - especially since I've been unable to visit for the past three years [!] - but what the hell: Let's make the game.com a priority.

I'd be a Halloweenie if I missed the "opportunity" to announce the discovery of the Castlevania: Symphony of the Night prototype (or as I like to call it, "Simfauxny of the Naught") in time for the upcoming holiday. So... BOO! I'm announcing it.

Go to the unreleased games page, where you'll find a link to Castlevania: Symphony of the Night. Click that link, et voilà: Drac is back. I've also added the game's icon to the cartridge icons page.

BTW: In case you're curious about the origins of this prototype, I invite you to read some of this website's recent updates: a few of which snuck in just now! *wink*

Also, suffer through this video if you like...

Mr. Sound-About:
Let's have another interview, eh? Today it's Brian Rubash, who was the Director of Web Marketing at Tiger Electronics from 1997 - 2002. A very enthusiastic fellow indeed, Brian was kind enough to spend several hours on the phone with me back in 2020, rapping about the game.com and his favorite company. It is, so far, the longest and most detailed interview posted to the website, so be sure to give it a good read!

Mr. Sound-About:
I put myself through the horror of recording the Castlevania: Symphony of the Night soundtrack – via real hardware of course – so if it tickles your fancy you may now listen to it online, or download it. I personally recommend neither option.

Mr. Sound-About:
A very impressive, indepth vid about the Castlevania prototype was upped to PooTube today...

It's pretty cool, Beavis.
