Since I'm not a big fan of super violent games and I'm not very good at fighting games either, I've never gotten into Mortal Kombat. But boy I sure do remember how popular it was back then! I have to say, the first Mortal Kombat movie was actually not that bad. And my favorite MK characters are Reptile, Sonya, and Jade because they wear green and green is my favorite color. And that's all I know about Mortal Kombat!
I played a little bit of a King's Quest game at a cousin's house back in the day, but I never got into those or Police or Space Quests. I read a lot of the back of the boxes of those games in the stores back then, though.
Too bad you may not have time to watch all of The Dark Crystal. I really liked that series. But then, I'm a big Jim Henson fan.
Oh good, I'm glad that's the one you played. It's a surprisingly good game, isn't it? Mini Motor Racing X isn't as good as Road Trip, but it's still a fun downloadable racer. My review of it will be up by the end of the month.
Aside from Animal Crossing, I'm working on finishing my review of Fight Crab! I just posted a review of something at GamerDad that you'll probably be interested in.
I know a guy who was on the team that made the first God of War game. He also worked on Pac-Man World, Maximo, Drawn to Life, etc. He was also a Disney Imagineer for a while and now works on board games.
The RPG episode of High Score was probably my least favorite, but that's probably because I was only really into RPGs during the 16 bit era. Speaking of High Score, I just wrote a blog about the series, so I recommend you please read that when you get a chance!
Yeah I think my favorite was when they interviewed John Kirby before he passed away.
Gay Blade looked more like just a fan game to me. Didn't feel as significant in the video.
The old LucasFilm Games point and click adventures are on Steam? That's cool. I wonder if Zak McKracken's on there?
That's cool. My iPad is basically my personal trainer now. :) I don't like Nike, but they do have a decent free fitness app with videos of workouts. And Under Armor has an app to track nutrition if you're into counting your macros and stuff. And feel free to ask me any questions, too. I've considered weightlifting my second hobby after video games. :)
Where I work has helped out a bit, too, as I lift a lot of 100 pound toilets and toolboxes. Just yesterday a customer was struggling to pick up a toilet and I ran over and picked it up and put it in her cart effortlessly and she said, "GOOD GOSH YOU'RE STRONG!!!"
