Hey fellow Gameologerinos. I’m quite happy to be posting since the Kinja widget here initially seemed busted (and I’m typing on a phone). But I persevered, haha. I’ve got a long day of manual labor at a warehouse ahead of me - not exactly expected work as an archivist, but it’s part of the job’s excitement that you…

Oh man, you’re getting into Pokemon at the best time. I’ve been playing, I kid you not, since the original ones came out back in 1997 or whenever; I gave up pretty definitively after Ruby/Sapphire, but came back in a big way with X/Y. While HeartGold/SoulSilver will always have a place in my heart as some kind of…

It’s just that Kamilah’s an only child.

This is a good batch of games, guys. Y’all better vote!

I can see it this week! It’s a miracle!

I’ve got two games occupying my focus this weekend, both of which got a fair amount of play last night: Picross S and Super Mario Run.

Yes, I love Fiasco! Easily my favorite GM-less role-playing game, and an excellent exercise in cooperative storytelling. For a somewhat similar vibe, I’m really excited about the upcoming Wet Hot American Summer role-playing game which should be out in a few months (I’m looking forward to paging through the test…

Haven’t played any games since last weekend, I was out of town for work and heading out of town this weekend with my wife and get family. Really could have used a Switch!

No idea why anyone would put him on a pedestal.

As I’ve said... elsewhere, I always liked Lyn as my introduction to Fire Emblem, and her inclusion makes me very happy indeed.

There really isn’t a middle ground with Destiny, is there? People either like grinding endlessly for that slightly better gun or they hate it. I’m square in the ‘hate’ crowd.

There was absolutely no reason for this to be a video.

Dude, get the fuck out of here with this shit.

I really hate Kinja. You would never see people talking like this at the old Gameological site.

I’m curious how the remake approaches the soundtrack. I recall M2's Gameboy soundtrack being surprisingly atmospheric and dissonant. Does the remake go for a 1:1 remix or do they do something different?

Yeah, weird how a company with its value tied almost entirely to its intellectual property rightfully protects it.

Getting away from the discussion of Another Metroid 2 Remake, I’d like to talk about the game’s relative quiet. Anthony discussed this last year in regards to the wordier opening of Metroid Prime, and while I stand by PaganPoet, Jakeoti, Merlin, and DL with our disagreement on how it affected the game, I also can’t…

woah there hitler
