It is what it is. Agree.

I can't play these games on ipad. It's either GBA or ROMs, but no I can't play on ipad. I have never actually played V for whatever reason. I have played them all except this one. I think it's time. Plus that Cthulhu boss appears in one of the first dungeons in A Realm Reborn.

But there's luchadores in Dead Rising 3...


and boxing...


and this...


and Demon Souls with light sabers!

I got To The Moon as well. It's very good. I need to get Cthulhu sometime.

I noticed many comparisons to Symphony of the Night most of all, which is the version it resembles the most, but even that game I don't think is as difficult or as slow paced as DS. I haven't played the 3D PS2 games so I can't say those aren't proper 3D castlevanias and DS is. Lord of Shadows is more God of War than CV. I think early Devil May Cry might be closer. 

The list isn't too horrible. I really love Super Mario Bros 2 though and they left it out. 
Why can't you play NES games? There are plenty of emulators out there. 

I like the first game. Strategy games aren't my forte.

It is really good!

Actually, there were a few people I used to read a lot on 1up but are now on pixlbit, BrokenH, Chris Yarger, whatsacow and Keegs79 to be more specific. I actually didn't feel the urge to jump in until BrokenH wrote something about the collector edition of Dead Island which featured a bloody torso and the drama it caused. I still read/play more than write, and not as interesting  blogger as those I mentioned.

I'm surprised to read that 1up is still alive. I haven't been able to find other gaming blogging sites like this one at all. Sure there are sites like IGN, gamespot, but with so many users your blog will most likely get buried and ignored. There are a lot of great bloggers on this site. It's not all about games. It's games/life/music/movies/tv/comics/rants/raves/beer reviews/ etc. Welcome!
