Does anybody read Gamespite?

Because I love the books. Some don't care for the writing style, but I'm not afraid to admit I'm part of team Parrish.

Guess that's a "no" from Tats. :)

Anyway, it's a blog that was recently rebranded to telebunny or something.
Here is a link to the books. They are real and they are spectacular.

There is a perverted Japanese businessman in every Swiss PCE fan.

He reprints much of the book content on the site.

This is the current site: http://telebunny.net/toastyblog/
And here's where you can find the books: http://telebunny.net/toastyblog/gamespite-quarterly/

I picked up the first few books, but have kind of fallen off the wagon. They're all worth reading, though.

Games I Need: Bonk 3 (HuCard), Legend of Hero Tonma, Magical Chase, Soldier Blade, Super Air Zonk.

Got one to sell? PM me!

Is this the fellow that hosted the retronauts podcast? Jeremy Parrish? I don't know much about him, but I remember reading some stuff years ago. I always thought he was well-spoken on the old podcast.

STATUS: May investigate further...
