Captainstarball

Iam pretty much another wrestling fan and a WWE fan out there. I also really like video games alot. I found a site which some time ago, but never had a chance to blog it because of me either being busy or lazy or both lolz. Seriously though this site has great updates on gaming and wrestling those are my some of my hobbies one reason I go to their website and follow them at twitter. 
As their site says WRESTLING MEETS GAMING.
I couldn't ask for more.

About captainstarball

Captainstarball was founded in January 2011 by the staff of the site Borderlands Guide. Borderlands Guide is still up and kicking but was dedicated to one game. When we wanted to talk about other stuff, we didn't have a venue for it.
And we had a lot to talk about it. There's a ton of gaming sites. Some are good but there's way too many faceless sites parroting the same information over and over again. Where's the thinking and honest opinions, people? We still have brains, don't we? Please say yes!
Not long after we started the site, we were joined by the fearless and talented jbl316, who has led our editorial strategy. Currently, we have a focus on the intersection of gaming of wrestling but we also step outside of those boundaries to publish what needs to be said. For example, see our popular series on the DMC backlash.
If you've got something you want to shout to the world, we would love to hear from you. Our editors work closely with submissions to make sure your voice will ring loud and true.
And what does Captainstarball mean? We engaged an elite management consulting firm to conduct multi-year, multi-million dollar research on the ideal name for our target demographic. They arrived at Captainstarball.
Kidding. We couldn't afford that. The real way we got that name was the pet monkey in our office (who also serves as our CTO) spelled it out in his Alpha-Bits cereal one day. He also spelled GLKDJFLKC, which didn't work as well.


Nendoroid Linkin Park @ WF2012


Recently at Tokyo's Wonder Fest 2012 we finally get a glimpse of the Linkin Park Nendoroid's. This will probably be final update to my 2 previous blog posts here and here, since I was just really interested how will these guys look in the final product.  Pretty cute if I say so my self.

In other news on Linkin Park toys. If you are a gundam fan you'll love the next Linkin Park toy. Since they did the soundtrack on Gundam VS Gundam Extreme they are having their own Linkin Park Gunpla.

Katawa Shoujo




Katawa Shoujo is a bishoujo-style visual novel set in the fictional Yamaku High School for disabled children, located somewhere in modern Japan. Hisao Nakai, a normal boy living a normal life, has his life turned upside down when a congenital heart defect forces him to move to a new school after a long hospitalization. Despite his difficulties, Hisao is able to find friends—and perhaps love, if he plays his cards right. There are five main paths corresponding to the 5 main female characters, each path following the storyline pertaining to that character.

The story is told through the perspective of the main character, using a first person narrative. The game uses a traditional text and sprite-based visual novel model with an ADV text box.

Katawa Shoujo contains adult material, and was created using the Ren'Py scripting system. It is the product of an international team of amateur developers, and is available free of charge under the Creative Commons BY-NC-ND License

Characters


Hisao Nakai - main character

Hisao Nakai
Troubled over his months-long stay at the hospital after his heart almost gave out and trying to adjust to his new surroundings, he is trying hard to find his place in the world. After being thrown into a new beginning, the chaotic circumstances have forced Hisao to rethink his apathetic disposition, especially regarding things like life, friendship and future.


Emi Ibarazaki

Emi Ibarazaki
  • Birthday: March 14
  • Zodiac: Pisces
  • Blood Type: B
  • Height: 151 cm
  • Weight: 41 kg
  • Bust/Waist/Hips: 70/51/74
  • Hair: Light Brown
  • Eyes: Poplar Green
Despite being left with legs amputated below the knee, Emi is perhaps one of the most cheery, happy-go-lucky girls on the entire globe, let alone the school. Not one to be left in despair even after the accident that claimed her legs, Emi views her disability more as a blessing, her prosthetic legs having brought her to the heights of her ability on the track team rather than becoming a permanent obstacle. 
  

Hanako Ikezawa

Hanako Ikezawa
  • Birthday: July 10
  • Zodiac: Cancer
  • Blood Type: AB
  • Height: 164 cm
  • Weight: 52 kg
  • Bust/Waist/Hips: 86/56/84
  • Hair: Purple
  • Eyes: Grey Purple
At a young age, Hanako had a traumatic experience that left her life in shambles. Her father died when their home burned down in an accident, which also disfigured Hanako herself permanently. She is reclusive to the extreme, shunning from all other people to the point of actually panicking from any social contact. Her only trusted friend is Lilly, who has taken Hanako under her wing ever since the two were introduced to each other. 

Lilly Satou

Lilly Satou
  • Birthday: February 7
  • Zodiac: Aquarius
  • Blood Type: A
  • Height: 171 cm
  • Weight: 59 kg
  • Bust/Waist/Hips: 89/61/89
  • Hair: Blonde
  • Eyes: Blue
Blind since birth, Lilly is caring, responsible and friendly - the perfect foil to Hanako, her best friend, whom she shares an almost mother-daughter relationship with, in addition to her free time often being spent drinking tea alongside her companion. In class she is a diligent student, with her sense of confidence serving her well in her role as class representative of class 3-2. 

Rin Tezuka

Rin Tezuka
  • Birthday: March 13
  • Zodiac: Pisces
  • Blood Type: AB
  • Height: 161 cm
  • Weight: 50 kg
  • Bust/Waist/Hips: 83/54/78
  • Hair: Red
  • Eyes: Dark Green
Since Rin’s arms are tiny stumps due to a severe birth defect and subsequent surgery, she uses her feet and occasionally her mouth to do everything, which includes painting. Because of her disability, using skirts is tough, so Rin is wearing a boy’s uniform at school. Her creativity is matched by her philosophical streak: Rin is fond of occasionally getting lost in thought and giving voice to abstract ideas about man, the universe, and other things that thoroughly confuse people. 

Shizune Hakamichi

Shizune Hakamichi
  • Birthday: May 6
  • Zodiac: Taurus
  • Blood Type: O
  • Height: 158 cm
  • Weight: 53 kg
  • Bust/Waist/Hips: 88/52/85
  • Hair: Dark Blue
  • Eyes: Blue
Strong willed and forceful, Shizune is definitely the leader type. She’s been the class rep, despite being deaf and mute, for as long as her class has had one, and generally takes charge in just about any situation she’s placed in. Shizune is known around the school as a fearsome taskmaster, and skilled manipulator, but also as a fair and just leader. 

Shiina “Misha” Mikado

Shiina “Misha” Mikado
  • Birthday: November 1
  • Zodiac: Scorpio
  • Blood Type: AB
  • Height: 158 cm
  • Weight: 57 kg
  • Bust/Waist/Hips: 85/58/84
  • Hair: Pink
  • Eyes: Gold
Misha is the interpreter for Shizune and a fellow member of the student council. Cheery, playful, and never one to pull a punch, she happily joins in Shizune's attempts to get Hisao onto the student council.
