From the Butlerniverse

A quick update for those who follow my “stuff.”

First, be sure to check out the newest episode (234) of Star Wars Action News to hear the second part of my eight part series on “collecting approaches” (or the “EU Collecting Series” as I often call it). The series began in a previous episode (228) with a look at different approaches to collecting Star Wars EU novels, and this new episode brings a segment about approaches to collecting Star Wars comic books. (For the record, the remaining six segments focus on comic packs, “choose your own adventure” books, trading card games, the roleplaying game, home video releases, and video games, though not necessarily in that order.)

Second, be sure to check out We Talk Clones: Episode 32 on the Solo Sound website. This special episode features me as a guest, as the guys grill me (friendly-like) on the “Mandalorian / Traviss / etc.” issue from The Clone Wars.

Third, be on the look out for more video game reviews in the next week or so. Tonight marks the release of Costume Pack 2 and Desperate Escape DLC for Resident Evil 5, plus the Relics Triple Pack and Dark Forest DLC for Dante’s Inferno, and the first episode of Heavy Rain Chronicles DLC (entitled The Taxidermist).

I am going to have to wait on the Dante’s Inferno and Heavy Rain DLC, it seems, as the Playstation Network Store is not currently recognizing preorder bonus vouchers for either of these two DLC items  (and it is not yet clear whether the Relics Triple Pack is something totally new or if it is made of relics that can be found in Dark Forest, making them redundant). If you are having the same problems, I’d be curious to know (use Twitter) to know whether you purchased either game via Amazon. Both of mine were and neither works at the moment. (Then again, it really doesn’t seem as though it is working for anyone. Also, there seems to be no Heavy Rain DLC for direct purchase, only via vouchers . . . which aren’t working.)

I’ll likely play through the RE5 materials tonight, since those are pay-only (not vouchered, if that’s even a word), so I’ll have those tonight.

That, or I’ll run through the end of Heavy Rain a few more times to change the endings and get my last two trophies on the only game I’ve ever cared about trophies for (he says, ending with a preposition).
