Amen! And ya know, Snee, they're going to be sending out physical discs, a first for a Kickstarter project. I just wish I had money to get some of the cool rewards, but mainly I just want to play this game really bad.
This is only the second thing I've ever backed on Kickstarter. I might not have done it for just a digital copy but they're sending out physical discs! And playing other Metroidvanias, while certainly fun...it's just not the same without that gothic horror atmosphere 
Interesting list. Lot of great stuff on here that could keep you busy for a long time lol. But have you never played Metroid Prime?! That's my favorite game ever. You need to drop everything and play that right now O_O
Like you, I'd always wanted to play Uncharted 2 but couldn't bring myself to skip the first game. I actually like the story of the first game a little better but the second one definitely improves every bit about the gameplay and level design. It's great! I still need to play the third one though.
Btw, I didn't see a blog about your intended game playlist. What's your plan?
The Mario Galaxy games are so good. I hope you like it. I assume you wrote a blog about this playlist. Must've missed it. I'll go back and check. Sounds like a good idea though.
That's frustrating. Bosses should never be again to heal all the way in one turn. That sucks.
I miss Bomberman games 
This is a timely choice. Did you listen to the recent Retronauts about the Bonk series? Good stuff. This game looks like a ton of fun. Cool music!
After writing this blog I saw that US Gamer said Never Alone is a pretty good game, so your recommendation makes two.
You really should give 999 a try. It's soooo good.
Have you played Venetica? It always looked to me like one of those B-tier games not worth bothering with but I don't really know
