Ivy the Kiwi?

I was going to make this little segment thingy in the review about how Yuji Naka seems obsessed with birds in video games, but that whole thing fell apart when I realized someone else made Flicky...

"Can you free roam in this game. I wouldnt see the point on adding cars and bikes if you cant use them"

"What's with all the censoring in the game ,and wii the U.K version be uncensored if anyone knows?????"

"this is better then fifa 07"

"I'm still trying to figure out if the Japanese song at the the was "thats what friends are for"( in Japanese of course )?" - NOTE: the song was in Chinese, since the game clearly takes place in China.

"Crackdown 2 ows you, your mom and your dog."

GunGriffon

I remember renting this game back in 1997 and, even though I got my ass handed to me, having fun with it. Still holds up nicely today. Though, modern gamers might be turned off by the "simplistic" missions featured in GunGriffon.

Title: Interesting how looking up the term 'mecha' lead me to a WTF plot twist... (spoilers)
Posted: August 09, 2010 (12:35 PM)
So, in an upcoming review, I used the word 'mech' several times, but I wasn't sure that was the correct or original term, so I did a quick google search. Of course, the first link lead to Wikipedia... I went and read a little of the history at the beginning of the page, which eventually lead me to a mention of Mazinger Z.

I clicked on that link just for the hell of it. I then read a bit of the info on that page, and decided to click on a link to Go Nagai's wiki page. I was greeted by a picture of Go Nagai waving back at me. Read basically the "First success and controversies" section. At this point, I was like, "What the hell, lemme read about Devilman while I'm at it."

I read the plot section, to see what the hell the story was really about, which eventually lead into the manga's ending: Devilman/Akira's "girlfriend" is killed by a human horde, he finds her dismembered body, and then he goes off to fight satan, where the story concludes with the world blowing up and Devilman being defeated.

o_O

This in turn lead to a half-assed search where I wanted to find scans of these moments, but gave up when I magically stumbled into TV Tropes and spent most of the night reading stupid tropes, one of which lead me to this.... interesting YouTube clip:



Damn you, mecha!

DOES WAYNE BRADY HAVE TO GROW A MANLY BEARD!

Seriously, people have been thinking I'm 16 for the past five years now. This is getting really stupid.

Crackdown 2

This sequel makes me sad. I can't believe this game got good reviews on other websites.

Anyway, now that I got all these reviews out of the way, I can spend more time with Zelda.

Thought the main menu/final stage music was catchy, though. However, it sounds better within the game, since it's matching up with the action on-screen:

Title: Ocarina of Time is turning me into one dumb motherf... airy boy
Posted: July 15, 2010 (05:41 PM)
I had to look at a faq three times over the simpliest things so far:

1) Finding Link's first sword.
2) The gravekeeper's whereabouts.
3) A key in the Forest Temple (it was in the first room...)

I can't believe I'm having such a hard time figuring things out in this game, considering I've solved tougher puzzles in other 3D advetures. It still manages to be better than Mario 64, though.

Super Mario 64

Just in case!

Edit: I forgot to uncheck the box. Now I feel like a whore. XD

Anyway, I never intended to write a review for this when I came back for a revisit. Funny how that all changed halfway through playing it...

The House of the Dead: Overkill

I'd have a craving to play THotD2&3 Return if it weren't for the fact I already have four other games waiting to be finished on my Wii...

Metal Slug XX

I'm actually glad I held off reviewing this when it first came out, because I would have had a completely different opinion on it. When I finally decided to review it, I thought it would be best to play through all the games on Anthology first, to get a better impression on where XX stands. To think, I was so close to claiming it was better than MS6 in a review.

This was actually the same situation I was in with Mega Man 10. I had a clouded impression of the game, since I couldn't remember if similar things happened in past games, whether they were better then, and exactly which ones, too. And I wasn't exactly in the mood to play through 9 Mega Man games, so I passed on reviewing it.
