Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep

Why do I enjoy the Kingdom Hearts games? They offer very little difficulty (aside from a few key battles), their story is not only fucking stupid, but incredibly convoluted to the point of being nearly indecipherable, all the main characters are morons usually, and they reuse the words Heart/s, Light, and Darkness WAY TOO DAMN MUCH. I mean it's really neat seeing a bunch of Disney and Final Fantasy characters kicking it (even if this one had only Zack as far as I can tell), and the fighting system is usually really fun, but.. I don't know where I was really going with that.

Magical Quest: Starring Mickey Mouse

I don't know if this game is easy or hard. It's incredibly easy to die, or I just really suck, but death doesn't really mean much. You have three lives, and each time you die you start the level over. Though once you hit the game over screen you have two options, continue, or don't. If you hit continue its as if all you did was just lose a life. The only hitch is that you lose your accumulated score, but since when has anyway one really cared about that in a non-competitive setting? Since never.

Twilight Zone Episode 17 - The Fever

"Mr. and Mrs. Franklin Gibbs, three days and two nights, all expenses paid, at a Las Vegas hotel, won by virtue of Mrs. Gibbs' knack with a phrase. But unbeknownst to either Mr. or Mrs. Gibbs is the fact that there's a prize in their package neither expected nor bargained for. In just a moment, one of them will succumb to an illness worse than any virus can produce, a most inoperative, deadly, life-shattering affliction known as 'The Fever'."


This episode is a perfect representation of the two extremes of The Twilight Show. The realm of complete ridiculum, and a genuine problem.

Platinum Notes

Depending on who you are this game is either the best 35 bucks you'll spend, or a total waste. I fall into the former camp, and I'm hella glad for that.

The changes from Diamond have been subtle, but pretty fantastic. Every area has had at least a bit of a graphical overhaul, which was nice and really made the game prettier. The Elite 4, and Battle Island or whatever the devil it's called look particularly splendid in comparison to Diamond. Back sprite animations are pretty nifty albeit completely unnecessary, it made my heart flutter though as a long time fan.

The Adventures of Sardam

So I have a friend, named Sara, and Sara kind of ends up going to Juvie a lot. On her latest journey there I told her that instead of writing her letters, I was just going to draw her a comic. I meant just a page or two originally, and the first few pages reflect this, however as I thought about it, the idea blossomed and became it's own creature. Now I sit at the finale of the first issue, of what I hope will eventually be more. It's not perfect by any means, and the art is iffy at best (though better than most of my previous work).

Anyway, I know pretty much no one reads this blog, though if anyone just happens to stumble upon this place I IMPLORE/BEG you to go and visit the comic's blog. It's a relatively good read, and I want some feedback. Thank you so much in advance.

Heroes: Season 3 (Spoilers)

Heroes season 1 was pretty much amazing. Season 2 was slightly weaker, but I didn't look down upon it as harshly as others have. Season 3 has by far been the most bumpy road I've seen so far in this show.

Super Mario Bros

Mario is probably the most iconic video game hero ever conceived, I don't have statistics so I can't say 100%. Of course whenever a Mario game comes out the world rejoices.

No wait, it doesn't really do that anymore does it?

Mario's initial non-platformer games were pretty low-key. Most people didn't really know about them, or just didn't really care. I mean some were probably pissed if they accidently bought Mario is Missing or whatever, but most people were only exposed to the core series. After the N64 was released Mario flooded the market.

Tennis, Party and Golf, the first three major Mario side games. All with at least two sequels , and the Party series just refuses to die. At least it's finally worth a look again now with waggle control thanks to the Wii and apparently the DS version is pretty fun with friends. But this is besides the point.

Blogging Morrowind

Considering how skewed my ratio of started to completed projects it I'm amazed I made it as far as I did with Blogging Morrowind. Really, for me it was a respectable effort, though I think the game is a bit too large for a project such as "Blogging" it in it's entirety. I had some pretty good ideas for it too. Such as MOD blogs talking about my adventures using fan-made MODs of all sorts, job specific blogs which focus on a character who isn't a barbarian but a thief or a mage which would have been a challenge for me as Morrowind is incredibly easy for fighter classes. Other classes aren't impossible, Morrowind just isn't as quick and easy for them. Without the side adventures the blog would still have ended up being massive.

Freeware Adventure Review: La Croix Pan

La Croix Pan
By: The JBurger
This is an adventure game, usually I'd say to stay away if you're expecting a lot of action, but not only does this one feature a little bit of FPS gaming, it's also veeeery short. Short but good, if not fantastic. It's WWII (oh noez! Another World War II game!) you're the only solider left from your group and you have to secure the small town of La Croix Pan. As long as you don't fuck up along the way you do just that. Seeing as most of the people who read this probably won't take the chance and download this from the above link, I'll just tell you everything that happens. Of course if you DO want to play it then stop reading and download it now! It's very beautiful and honestly pretty fun.

New Project

"Wake Up. We're Here. Why are you shaking? Are you ok? Wake up. Stand up. There you go. You were dreaming. What's your name? Well, not even last night's storm could wake you. I heard them say we've reached Morrowind, I'm sure they'll let us go." - Jiub

I love Morrowind. It is one of my favorite games of all time. I love it so much that I want to write about it. So why don't i just write about it here? Because I wish to write about it excessively. Thus an entire new blog was born! Have you noticed this weird trend building recently where a gamer blogs their way through a game series? It started with Zelda, and other series like Ultima, Dragon Quest and Final Fantasy started getting blogged as well. Now I have my own contribution to the movement.

Blogging Morrowind

If you know anything about the game this is potentially a massive undertaking. How am I going to possibly go about this? I don't know. We'll let the nine guide us together on this journey.
