Re: January Together Retro: Konami Loves Genesis

I beat Rocket Knight Adventures Nice work, null! Glad to hear that you enjoyed it. Out of curiosity, which difficulty level did you go with? They're called different things in each region, but I went with the default difficulty, personally. I think the higher difficulties result in different ending...

Re: January Together Retro: Konami Loves Genesis

I beat Rocket Knight Adventures and posted up a review in Games Beaten. Long story short, this was an incredibly good, albeit difficult game (for me at any rate). I'm super stoked that the topic this month prompted me to check this one out, being as it wasn't really high in my backlog. Thanks for a ...

Re: February Together Retro Poll

I voted for Doom and Collections. I'll have to put some thought into what rail shooter I might play, but I think I'm leaning towards Sin and Punishment. Not sure what systems (and/or virtual console releases) it's available on though, outside of the original N64 game.

Re: Games Beaten 2019

@null: YEAH! I replayed SMW earlier this month, and yup - it's still my favorite of those early 2D games. By far. I saw that! And what's funny is that I had already mentally earmarked SMW as my first game of the year when I saw that you had beaten it. Great minds thinking alike and all that. SMW ha...

Re: January Together Retro: Konami Loves Genesis

I myself started playing Rocket Knight Adventures last night, and ... wow! This is a great game. It's interesting, because going into it blindly, I never would have pegged this as a Konami game. If anything, there are several moments where I feel like it hews pretty closely to Treasure in both style...

Re: 2019 Gaming Goals and Resolutions

I don't have a whole too many gaming resolutions this year, but I figured it would be worth recording the few that I've been mulling over. 1) Write a brief post-game review/summary for every game I beat this year. This is a continuation of my (undeclared) 2018 resolution which I accomplished. I find...

Re: Books!

This might be the year that I finally crack the cover on the Witcher games. So in preparation for playing the games, I started reading the books at the beginning of the year (using the reading order suggested here ). It might just be that it's been a while since I've read any sword & sorcery fan...
