Aliens vs. Predator (2010) (Steam) My play history with this one is a little weird. There are three campaigns - Xenomorph (the titular Alien), Predator, and Colonial Marine. I played this game on and off; I started the Predator campaign in 2016, though a bug caused the game to crash whenever...

I really hope the giant fire breathing monster is Jimmy Olsen, who's somehow been transformed because he (got too close to a STAR Labs experiment/went to take pictures of a strange meteorite/angered a fortune teller/insert other Silver Age nonsense here). I like how David Corenswet uses...

Mine have pretty much stayed the same since Ultimate's DLC, in no particular order: With Geno, he has a distinctive design and abilities that help him to stand out from the rest of the Mario cast, which seemingly helped to fuel his popularity in Smash speculation for roughly two decades. The...

I've been playing King of Fighters 2002: Unlimited Match lately. It's not quite the Smash Bros. Ultimate of KOF (that would probably be '98 Ultimate Match; 2002 is missing some characters who appeared in KOF before like Wolfgang Krauser), but it's got a very big roster (66 characters counting...

This has been a really strong season so far. Whereas last season had a first episode that was a weird way to start off a new season and a last episode that didn't really stick the landing, I don't think there's been a bad or even "just okay" episode in this season as of now. (though I suppose...

Last year, I made a New Year's resolution to read at least one comic a day and make a blog entry about what I read. (both to get more use out of my comic apps and to start writing more often) I succeeded in getting an entry every day, and the blog is here. Fair warning; I try to avoid anything...

In that scene, Obi-Wan might as well be saying "trust your instincts". (though I've seen it joked that you could replace "the Force" with "the plot" and it would basically mean the same thing) I don't see how it's an anti-science stance, though; aside from the Ewoks, the heroes generally use...

Golden Axe II (Steam; through Sega Mega Drive & Genesis Classics) Normally, a sequel takes what was in the original and expands on it. Think of the jump from Mega Man to Mega Man 2 - the original was a classic, but the sequel set the bar incredibly high for future games in the series, with...

This was a very tense episode, and I was curious about what was going on. I think there'd been hints in pre-release material that this was , but up until the reveal, I guessed that it was . I'm glad that This season's off to a great start so far; I liked all three episodes. (though I'm...

As it's been over a month since I last posted, I'll make a new post rather than editing my previous one. I've been on a bit of a Sega Genesis kick lately; I've been playing the Sega Genesis Classics collection on Steam to find out what I missed out on by not having that system. I also wanted...

I beat Shining Force this morning, which helped me realize how I haven't actually beaten many Sega Genesis games. So far, it's just been Shining Force, Gunstar Heroes, and the 2D Sonic platformers. I'm not even sure about the Sonic games - I'm 100% sure I've beaten Sonic 2, though I'm only 90%...

I'm nearly done Shining Force if the character unlock guide that I'm following is any indication. (I'm on chapter 7 out of 8) I'm enjoying the game for the most part, though I'm having a few issues with it, both in terms of the translation and the gameplay. On the translation side, it seems...

I've been playing some of the Sega Genesis Classics collection on Steam lately (thankfully, I got all of the games before they were delisted, even the ones that were removed earlier like the Sonic games), and it's interesting to go through Sega's back catalogue since I mainly grew up with the...

It's been a month since I last posted here, so I'm okay to post again. I've played some Final Fantasy IX (I got to the start of what was originally disc 3, so I'm further than I thought) and I've started my first Professor Layton game, Professor Layton and the Miracle Mask. (I wanted to play at...

I thought it was a strong start to the season, and Belinda was a likeable companion. (definitely a better season opener than Space Babies was) Also, I've been watching more of classic Who; out of Colin Baker's first full season, Vengeance on Varos was far and away my favourite, and I gave the...
