R.I.P. Boo (2007-2020). He was more than a pet, but a member of the family, lost to cancer. 13 years ago, my wife adopted him and had an emotional bond with that can't be replaced. Ever since then, he's been a great fun-loving cat, until his final day, yesterday. He'll be missed.

Today might be the 20th anniversary of the Nerd's first on-screen appearance (Episode 2, Jekyll & Hyde). The digital file on the script says June 15, 2004. It's possible I could have filmed it that same day.

R.I.P. YETI (2008-2024) She was the most affectionate cat I ever had. We had her since she was a kitten. She had a full life, almost 16 years. The past year was difficult. Many vet visits, many treatments. But now the fight is over. Like her brother Boo, we’ll miss her so much.

This summer will mark the 20th anniversary of my NES reviews of Simon’s Quest and Jekyll & Hyde, when I created the character which became AVGN. I’ll be celebrating the occasion a little early, reflecting on retro Castlevania games again. Coming very soon.

Sad to hear of Gilbert Gottfried’s passing. He was an amazing entertainer down to the end. It was a pleasure to work with him. I feel privileged to have met both Gilberts. His public persona as the crazy funny man, and the kind gentle soul behind it. He will be missed soooo much.

Roughly 15 years ago, I reviewed Castlevania 2: Simon’s Quest which became AVGN: Episode 1. If you’d like to know the exact date, I checked the script. It seems the script began May 30, but there’s no way to know when the actual video was completed.
