Video Games: The Movie

I am the Milkman.  My milk is delicious.

Video Games: The Movie


Posted on 10/24/2014 at 07:07 AM | Filed Under Blogs

I'm going to be reviewing the Legend of Korra game.  Guess I'd better learn a little bit about the cartoon first. :)

My brother Jeff came over last weekend and we played Hyrule Warriors on Sunday afternoon.  It's WAY more fun with two players. Impa is awesome.

Like I said, Psychonauts was my Game of the Year for 2005, so you know I really liked it.  Keep playing it, there's so many great levels that are very creative.

RETROspective: History of a Hedgehog

One thing I would've noted in the pre-Sonic era were the many other mascots SEGA had.  Opa-Opa, Alex Kidd, and even Flicky served as a mascot and showed up in other SEGA games as power up icons or cameos.  Flicky is especially notable since the birds in that game have appeared in most other Sonic games, and some Sonic titles have even adopted the gameplay of the original Flicky title.  I wonder if Yuji Naka worked on Flicky?

Speaking of Yuji Naka, he didn't come up with Sonic right away.  His first idea for a mascot character was a rabbit who could grab onto things with his ears.  That type of gameplay proved too complicated for what Naka was going for, but the concept returned many years later in a game called Ristar (which I thought was a better game than Sonic).  And before Sonic was a hedgehog, he was actually going to be an armadillo.  But combining jumping and attacking made more sense with a spiky hedgehog, so that's what he went with.

I'd like to see that Sonic Boom cartoon, but Dish Network and Turner are under negotiations right now, so I can't watch Cartoon Network on my TV until they settle things, and that's the station that Sonic Boom will be on!  Ugh!  I bet Tails will be cool in it, too.  I've seen it a million times, but Knuckles new look still cracks me up!  He's been working out!

Good article, though.  Later!  --Cary

Instruction manuals are so helpful when I review a game.  I hate it that most games don't have them anymore.  If they're not going to do that, at least make the games cheaper.

Yeah many of the characters were pretty creative.  That's why I decided to write a blog about them.

It's OK.  I don't now if I comment on ALL of your blogs.

Still not a big enough connection for me.

Hi Tami!  Yeah, sorry, some of my blogs aren't as good as others.  Can't win 'em all. :)

Outside of the German name, I don't see any connection.

Nope, never played any other Arcana Heart games.  So I'm glad I got the opportunity to review this one.  I think Atlus published the others, and they can be a bit stingy, but Aksys published this one and they love me.

I don't know why I'm so familiar with obscure Neo Geo games.  It may be because there was an inordinate amount of Neo Geo arcade machines where I live, or that my circle of friends are SNK fans, too.  SNK's always been supportive of me reviewing their games, too.
