Two days in a row, and not a review to be had!

Today went much like yesterday: wake up at 6AM and move constantly between obligations until 10PM, only to wake up tomorrow and do a lot of the same thing. In light of this overload of responsibility, there won't be a review today.

But fear not, Faithful Readers! In the time I've had, I've thrown together about 65% of a review; this will be posted in its complete form tomorrow. I've chosen this particular game, Ys III: Wanderers From Ys, for two reasons.

1.) A reader, Tal Zahn (forgive me if that's spelled incorrectly), asked through a comment if I was into RPGs, more or less, and mentioned he had some suggestions. I am indeed into RPGs, and I have several on my list I plan on getting to, Ys being one of them. Also, I'm still open to suggestions, as long as the game is accessible without too much trouble and I have time (keep in mind, I have a HUGE collection of older games; if it was released for NES, SNES, GameBoy/GBC/GBA, or Sega Genesis in America, I almost guarantee I have it).

2.) I noticed that I've only posted reviews of games I've enjoyed a lot. I think it's only fair to post a review of a game I thought was completely mediocre. Ys III fits the bill for being both an (action) RPG and a mediocre one at that.

So, there you have it. Tomorrow, look forward to a review of a game I consider to be totally, completely, and utterly average. To close, here's a picture of Nic Cage as Pee Wee Herman, courtesy of one of the most hilarious blogs I've ever seen on Blogspot, Nic Cage as Everyone.

I would watch this movie...just sayin'.

  3. Copy paste comments are copy paste.

    There seems to be a direct correlation here...the more time I put in on any given post, the less copy/paste comments I get. The opposite is also true, apparently.

    Hooray for complete disinterest!

  6. lol the pic is hilarious.
    Also I looked into Ogre Battle 64 and I'm def going to pic it up at some point. I have every N64 game on my computer, but they are often glitchy, so once I pay my rent I might pick Ogre Batte, Jet Force Gemini, and Perfect Dark up.

    Looking forward to the Ys review dude

  8. Spelled correctly, haha!

    I know this is kind of late but here are a few ideas of RPG games (and others) that I happened to like and would love to see you review them!

    Dragon Warrior 1-4 - NES (RPG)
    Little Nemo: Dream Master - NES (Platformer)
    Chrono CROSS - PS1 (RPG)
    Nintendo World Cup - NES (Sports game)

    My big one is the dragon warrior series... since I'm such a nut with that game. Favorite game series, still playing it since I was 5 (24 now). I have a few other ideas but these were the mores interesting games I played.
