Re: The Backlog Check-in Vol. 414: 12/6/25: Mutant Football League 2 Edition
Still really enjoying Shantae 1/2 Genie Hero. I never played an entry before, but I'll surely play some more. Got a fun sense of progression with secrets and abilities that are sort of Metroidvania-like, albeit within discrete levels. And the platforming and presentation is fun as well. Season 6 of ...

Those Swedes definitely know how to make some music. ;) Swedes do ALL well :P ...well except maintaining their cultural integrity. Now I sound like a racist. I hope I'm not - I don't think I am. All is in flux always, but I do miss when the world held pockets of uniqueness, I guess is what I'm tryi...

Games added: Hello Kitty Island Adventure (switch) (don't judge me!), It's surprisingly good though. Very mellow, as one would expect, but it's more-or-less Animal Crossing w/ Hello Kitty characters. Ha, don't worry, I won't judge. I put it on my wishlist when I first saw it. I was drawn to the mel...

Hey, Happy Thanksgiving bros! https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/spiceworks/original/4X/0/7/0/0702d84ab79f95445b28b207e3d83cc3b1ce4735.gif Hope you all have a nice holiday. I've still been drowning in OOTP and I also have been playing an older game I had long been interested in called The Path, kind of a...

I've only had a couple of hours with DQ3 (I got a job last week and thus no longer have unlimited free time), but what I played was great. Hope to get back to it tonight. Congratulations, or would that be...Congratulations? :P Are you still in the same field? (copy editing, was it, right?) Or have ...

Re: The Backlog Check-in Vol. 410: 11/8/25: Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 Edition
Yeah, it's the painting spots & I'm also missing 3 puzzle boxes somehow. I have another couple of trophies that wouldn't be any big deal, but I just didn't bother with them since I wasn't going to do the other two. When I was looking for the last painting spots my wife goes "it's that game...

Re: The Backlog Check-in Vol. 409: 11/1/25: Post-Halloween Edition
But like real sports, things happen in ways - both good and bad - that you might not expect. And that drama is intoxicating - both in the highs and the lows. And that is why I still watch real sports. Although I try not to let the lows drag me down the way they did when I was younger. Yeah, I used ...

Re: The Backlog Check-in Vol. 409: 11/1/25: Post-Halloween Edition
I've got DQ VIII all ready to go on my emulator, but I'm just looking for a window to jump in. Sooner or later. I loved Mutant Blobs Attack when I played it on Vita back in 2013. I'm not sure it would be as great on PC. Nobody Saves the World is probably my least favorite Drinkbox game, but I still ...

Re: Izzy's 2024 gaming year in review.
I did not see that coming either. Great choice. I played it on Vita, and it wasn't until my third attempt that everything clicked and I got hooked. Just an immaculate game in every aspect. I have played everything from Drinkbox and loved them all. Great studio with a unique style. What did you thin...

and the babies are super into me reading the bedtime story https://media.tenor.com/GM2NnQyP96cAAAAM/the-office-crying.gif You just gave me an intense and unexpected pang of nostalgic melancholy for days and moments that were sweet, have gone and will never return.
