While comic, manga, and anime adaptations in the West have gone as far away from the source material as the ego driven media snob directors can get away with, video games are getting at least some productions that try to be faithful. Not all, because they’re just as low on the media pecking order as comics, and much of that still comes from anime adaptations rather than the big name studios not putting on Sonic The Hedgehog movies. However, as Bleeding Fool contributor Susana Romero points out, you can only get so far to the source material without losing the casual audience and so far from the source material before losing the gaming fans.

(Although I want to know what the heck slot machines have to do with this topic. What was that section for?)

[EDIT: Forgot to add the link AND I got the site name wrong. Both have been fixed, and thanks to Cornelius Featherjaw for catching the missed link.]

A would be comic writer looking to organize his living space as well as his thoughts. So I have a blog for each goal. :)
