Nier's everything has to be one of the best that I've ever experienced. I guess what I'm saying is, Nier is one of the best games that I've ever played.

My god . . . I nearly forgot about Loom. That was a HELL of a game.

The digitized voice sound bytes in Sunset Riders were absolutely incredible. I remember the first time I took down Simon Greedwell (incredible name, btw) at the end of level-one and he garbles out "Bury me with my . . . money," but it totally sounds like "Marry me with my . . . money." Priceless.

I had to cancel my preorder on Soul Hackers due to some unforeseen financial troubles . . . but I didn't lose too much sleep over it due to my current immersion is Etrian Odyssey IV, and an overall lack of enthusiasm for how little was done to actually update the game from its Saturn version. SMT IV on the other hand…

Custom Armor? Inspired by Monster Hunter and Mega Man? Brightly colored? Aimed primarily at school-aged children? This game appears to check off a number of items that qualify it as something that I'd like to play. It reminds me alittle of Saint Seiya crossed with Level-5's Little Battlers Experience games, which I…

I'm on board with the theory that's been floating around that a young Snake will appear near the end of MGS5 voiced by Hayter. Though Hayter did voice act a younger Boss in MGS3, and an older snake in MGS4 . . . it's a viable possibility given that the older boss shown in the 5 trailers would have aged and undergone…

Lets double team this project.

I know. It's currently blowing my mind.

It's really not my nature to be so negative . . . but I have to ask . . . am I the only person who's just complete numb to this sort of thing anymore? I'm not saying that the visually fidelity on display here isn't remarkable . . . just that I don't actually care. I know I sound like a grumpy old man/snobby indie guy…

Well, I work in the LV Mall, so I kinda hate the mall with everything I have.

Wild Arms will always be my favorite game that makes me feel like Indiana Jones. The entire plot of the first game (not to mention the majority of the entire series) revolves around the consequences of exploring dungeons and finding ancient treasures within. And there's no shortage of clever traps to disarm…

I'm actually pretty sure that Reading Microplay is the last one in the US. Though each store is privately owned, the franchise itself is Canadian, and when the corporate office pulled out of the US, Reading and Whitehall were the only stores that I recall who paid for the right to continue using the name. That place…

I would read the full version of Jeremy Parish's review for IGN for an answer to that. He approaches the review as someone who is a big fan of both Pokemon, and the Mystery Dungeon series in general, and comes to the conclusion that this new title fails to be a good example of either. It seems like a particular…

Small world. The MacArthur location and the Cedar Crest one were actually the same store, it just moved. That was Joe who opened the control pad. He actually moved out to California to work on his wrestling podcast which was gaining some momentum (Smart Wrestling Fan). So the store is closed.

Salisbury alum eh? When did you graduate? I know afew folks who went there. Are you old enough to remember Microplay on Cedar Crest & Hamilton?

I'm a huge fan of the left forearm guard and the shoulder piece as well. My favorite elements of any piece or art from FFVII are the elements that most strongly say "this world is NOT medieval." Cloud's left wrist and shoulder armor look like they were cobbled together from industrial junkyard scraps. I like to tell…

I'm actually from Whitehall myself as well. But we're even less interesting than Allentown . . . so when people ask me where I'm from, I usually just say "an hour and fifteen minutes North of Philly."

Don't be so down on yourself my friend. Bethlehem is home to Matey's Famous Steaks and Pizza. My go-to destination for delicious general Tso's Chicken Cheesesteaks. I know its' famous, because the name tells me so. Also, the Christkindlmarkt is pretty chill every December. The Mrs. and I never miss it.

Thanks for throwing the Nomad in there for reference.

Very cool. I don't have Primus, though I wish I did. I display my Unicron with my Generations Galvatron, Cyclonus, and Scourge.
