Account Suicide
Anyone know a good way to kill your account around here? I know I could just stop coming here and I will probably do so, but I think something a bit more fitting is in order. I've been coming here... Super Mario Galaxy - Apprentice Mode.
Though it is a little long, there were some interesting tidbits in some developer interviews for those that want to know more about the Nintendo development process, especially with the making of... Will hype be what hurts the Wii the most this Christmas?
Upon reading a 'Hype this game' thread, I got to thinking about the negative effects of hype; In particular with the Wii this Christmas. Unnecessary hyping only does two things. 1) sets you up... The real gimmicks of video games
Another thread about the wii being a gimmick system. So I thought I would take a step back and really think about what makes something a gimmick in the video game world. And here is what I came... Game rankings article at slashdot.org - More info never hurts...
One of my favorite nerd sites is slashdot.org. I noticed they have a post on Game rankings and with peoples comments and such it takes quite a few different angles than the last hashing I did.... Looks like I'll be looking for 3 Wii's this Christmas!
Even though I already own one, my mom saw how much fun they are and wants to get one for each of my brothers and their families. Yep, looks like we are on a quest to obtain not only 1 this... Great Sports Fan Article...
I'm not an avid sports fan but I have been trying to get back into baseball since the strike however long ago that was. With the world series going on and Boston in it I owed it to myself to... Support the non-use of 'Hardcore', 'Casual', and 'Non-Gamer'
Most people that see the problems these terms cause have already stopped using them in their posts. From what I can tell a unified definition does not exist. And without a unified definition you... Remixed Video Game Music
Where I work we are allowed to listen to music while we work. I had some downloaded Final Fantasy Orchastrated music I will listen to every so often when I'm in the mood. Well, I went looking for... Sick of 'Game Recommendation' Threads...
So I opened up yet ANOTHER game recommendation thread "I just got a wii, what do you... blah blah blah". I really shouldn't have, I am not having a great day today. But rather than just ignoring... The lost 'Role' in RPG. Can't they make an RPG like they use to?!
At one time I thought of myself as a RPG gamer. My favorites were FF2 and FF3 for the SNES. Here is what I liked about FF2: A main storyline. I was Cecil. Other characters came and went, but "I"... My gaming history since SNES
I might give the whole story from the Atari 2600 someday, but looking at people wanting to ditch the Wii got me thinking... why did I come back to nintendo. I haven't cared since the SNES, why am I... My Game Ranking System
Everyone seems to be using a different system for ranking, so I thought I should define mine here. So when you see me rank a high ranked game low, this is why: Rule 1: I believe games... Thank goodness for moderators...
As my last rant provided, I was frustrated in that I started a forum topic and it seemed I ws doomed to find no comments worth while until a moderator stepped in and pointed out there are people... Gamespot Forums...
Well, I tried to post something to the forums and got nothing but: 'I agree with you' or 'I disagree' answers. I did get a few 'How would you tell?' questions back which did little than restate my... Wii VC rating system
This might even turn into a Wii thread if I get around to it, but what is up with the Virtual Console (VC) games getting ranked higher than a lot of Wii games coming out? Gamespot tries to tell us... Metroid Prime
As a Wii owner I have the privilege to playing all the games that I should have played if I would have shelled out for a GameCube or N64 (which I owned neither). Well, between working on Zelda OoT... Back to the Karts
Not having played a Kart game since Mario Kart for the SNES, I thought this might be good for myself and son to play together. No heavy laden Forza here and from what I understand not amazingly... Star Wars KOTOR II : Ending Impression
OK. To me there is little replay value it repeating an RPG where you can just guess the outcome of different choices, so I don't see a reason to play this game through again. Some might say that... Star Wars KOTOR II: First Impressions
Um... boring. I was expecting something quite different. The mini-games are all the same as the first KOTOR except for some minor tweaks (pazaak is actually fast now and has a few new cards,...
