My parents have so many books. I enjoyed picking them up off the floor after a major earthquake, and several years later, moving them to another house. So many books. I, too, was once on the way towards acquiring a large personal library. Then I moved to another country, and became a permanent nomad who will probably…

Merve? [persuses list] Check..I’m going to go with the even easier, flat-out-cheating answer and go with Mario Bros. No other series has upended previous conventions with such confidence. Even going from the single-screen “normal” to the scrolling Super, to the US’s second iteration of Super, it totally bucked the…

Hey Gameologerinos! I’m still trying to figure out the nightmare of a commenting system that is Kinja, but I thought I’d take the time to remind you that our book club for video games, the Revue Club, has survived the A.V. Club’s Kinjafication. This time, we’re discussing tactical third-person shooter Binary Domain: ht…

Trumpified? I mean, it’s a shit system and it’s ruined the layout of everything but we’re still white supremacist free down here in the comments... which is actually a big deal for a video game website.

I’m so glad No Man’s Sky is coming into its own. Their ability to make a compelling, “living” universe from literally the ground up means that competitors should be able to do the same. One of my least favorite parts of the otherwise procedurally-generated Elite: Dangerous is that there are some things that aren’t…

If they kill off Gameological for more Brian Ashcraft travel photos from Japan I will flip my lid.

I’ve seen this sentiment about MEA online quite a bit, and I think it’s funny that we as consumers are now upset when a game DOESN’T have DLC post-release. Meanwhile, I’m giving Mario X Rabbids side-eye for having “Season Pass” for a cutesy XCOM clone.

Maybe I should keep using HTML tags as a nod to the past.

Thanks! I’m happy to see you here too! I’ve got the hang of the text formatting now so hopefully I can post something more extensive next time around, should I have anything noteworthy to post, without fear Kinja will consume it with utmost indifference.

Hi friends! Nothing stops the game train or me talking about it, even if Disqus was replaced with charcoal on a stone tablet.

You made the switch-over! So, so glad to see you here (although I dearly hope you’re not going to make a habit of curtailing your expansive side). Have a lovely weekend yourself!

Even the miseries of Kinja cannot suppress my desire to occasionally natter on about what I’m playing this weekend.

Hey, I swear the picture was upside down in the preview! Also, now it won’t let me edit my own comment? Kinjaaaaargh.

Salutations~!

Greetings, all. It is I, the artist formerly (and currently, to some of my non-internet friends) known as Karlos. Since I have no idea when the legacy account switchover is happening, I guess I’ll be posting from this Disqus-derived account until then. I was going to change the avatar picture to my regular one, but…

Kinja is awful in many ways, but we can upload screenshots- that’s me picking up a hitchhiker in Plunkbat, which I have now uninstalled for a third time due to it being too damn addictive. I’ve done enough- won four solo games and had a round where I killed more than five players- so I’ll be parking it until it comes…

Hey everyone. Good to see some familiar faces. I moved to California to become a junior software engineer at a game company that makes video game pinball machines. They’re known for Pinball Arcade. It’s been pretty great so far at work. I’m working on adding the dlc to the PS4.

Not just SEGA. I hope every license holder of classic franchises understands what a great modern adaptation can do for a franchise. Square seems to get it with their Tokyo RPG Factory studio, and Nintendo got in on it with NES Remix (for which one has to assume a sequel is due at some point). To take what makes old…

This has far more familiarity with the franchise than I can appreciate, but it does get to the heart of the unexpected delights of the game,which I am playing because my son wanted it for his birthday. This gave me the opportunity to take it for a spin myself, and you know, I think this may be the Sonic game for me.…
