Happy 10th birthday SSBM!



It's been ten years since the North American launch of Super Smash Brothers Melee.  So many good memories...

I think I'll go downstairs, turn on the Gamecube, delete my save, and set the internal clock back to 2001 to commemorate this day.

I don't think I have anything else to say.

Skyward Sword

I just finished up The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword earlier today.  I don't think I'll tackle Hero Mode until the new year.  I don't know how to feel about it, I think I'll let it sink in for a little while longer before writing anything else. 

What I do know right now is... I really hated Fi.

Xenoblade in North America

In the Immortal words of Captain Falcon:

YES!

Backlogged: Pokemon Blue

Gotta catch 'em all... I swear one of these days I'll actually review a game I haven't finished before...


The post I never wanted to make

I haven't really been posting that much...

There's a reason for that. Backlogged had failed.

I was a weak minded fool.

It failed back in August, five months in. After a rather stressful week at work, I was at Staples. I was actually rather surprised that they sold video games there, and I decided to browse through their discount games. I saw the usual crap. Mini game collections for the Wii, but then I did a double take. I saw a certain game on clearance, Assassins Creed 2 for the PS3, for the low price of $9.97 plus an additional 20% off. I took it, thinking that maybe it was a labeling error, but it wasn't.

I bought it, and began to buy games again.

I've thought about if I should continue Backlogged. And I decided that I should just continue reviewing games that I have in my collection. Maybe I'll actually finish some games that I haven't finished before. Well... we'll see...
