Nice, I was actually doing a blog series called My Gaming Timeline back on 1up.
I grew up on Mario Kart, but to be honest, I never got as into any of them past SNES as everyone else did, so your CTR love is fine by me.
Oh, and I still dislike RPGs, but glad you got into them. lol
As for SoulCalibur, my favorite will always be the Gamecube version of II, with Link.
Wait, there was a way to go back in Star Fox 64? I guess there was ... just never did it cause there was no save feature, aside from medals, I guess.
I remember playing Star Fox and F-Zero mostly by way of hotels offering rental SNES with those.
Look forward to your new stuff!
If by "excited," you mean "who wants a free copy, along with a free 3DS," I am the true ... um ... excited one.
... I HAVE THE EXCITEMEEEEENT!!
Great blog, interesting sounding game, nice music.
I too suck at RTS and working with opponents, I'm used to one-player action games, or if multiplayer, games where it's all for one and one for all.
I think Oregon Trail, which we all played in grade school, was meant to teach about the economy as well as history, but all anyone ever did was shoot buffalo. lol
Believe it or not, I wrote a blog titled "I hate writing comment titles" that's now in the Blogger archive I made for old 1up stuff, yet now I kind of agree with you about missing it in some weird way. lol
As for KH, I enjoyed the first one as a rental, got to about the Tarzan levels, and when I find time, I'll gladly check out that timeline.
Hey there, look forward to reading your blogs! And I have no problem pointing out grammatical errors, if they're particularly egregious and make something hard to read, so don't you worry. 
Of course, as long as I can read it, and it's coherent, even if there are mistakes, I might not notice, but if it gets out of hand, I'll speak up.
I too came to 1up because of EGM, so it's nice that we have that in common.
BaD tradition lives on; I'd like to get that Simpsons for Android, but my phone is older, and Noom Weight Loss Coach takes up so much space.
I used to love Lego Star Wars, though when I was little, I was more into K'Nex for some odd reason.
I think we share similar tastes in music, judging by the Green Day and Sublime, 90s Alternative is the genre I know most about, according to Song Pop at least. lol
Borat! Taking a girl to his movie almost got me slapped, but it was worth it! lol
Glad you're enjoying the site and especially that you like blogging variety. I'm gonna start trying to tie games into my blogs next month, but I like talking about other things as well.
I feel like you repeated my points back to me, but then I guess I was repeating your points back to you, and just flipping them to be more positive ... hmmm... lol.
I commented in the most abrasive and contentious way I could; also, does that website use Word or something, cause I typed 4, 3, 2, and 1 in this comment box before copy/pasting to your site, and they all became an indented 1. on your site. lol
