With the recent broadcast of The Clone Wars season 7, I thought it was a good time to catch up on the last piece of expanded media I hadn’t gotten to.
Subjective game reviews, comic translations, pixel art, and other video game bits & bobs.

[Review] Lego Batman: The Videogame (PS3)
A long while ago I played the PSP version of this game by myself. Now my spouse and I played it together, the way these games are arguably meant to be experienced.
