First Class Day


Posted on 08/25/2014 at 07:51 PM | Filed Under Blogs

Surprise, surprise, I reviewed games for my college newspaper.  Austin is a pretty big live music town, so there was always a big music section in the newspaper.  It was called "Sound Bites."  I came up with the title for my game reviews under it.  It was called "Game Bytes."  I liked it better than the Dallas Morning News game section called "Electronic Adventures."

I always went to class.  Except I did skip a few of my Children's Literature classes because I was already making a 100 in that class anyway and I had classes for my major to study for.

I never ate Ramen in college.  I don't really like it that much.

I always visited my professors in college.  I think it did help a bit.

I studied a lot, too.  Another good tip is to get plenty of sleep.  I did that as well.

Only problem with the gym being free is that it was always crowded.  That's why I didn't use it much then.

College was a fun time and I did enjoy it and miss some things about it.  However at the same time, it was a waste of time as far as finding future jobs was concerned.  At least for me.

Which brings me to my next tip: major in something marketable.  Don't be like me and major in Magazine Journalism.  However, in my defense, at the time I was already writing for The Dallas Morning News so it seemed ike a good idea at the time.

I always showered and dressed before I went to class.  You never know when that cute girl would decide to sit by you.

I was involved with the campus newspaper for a few semesters, but that was it for me and college clubs.

And that was some of my college tidbits by me, Cary.

I thought Aqua was really cool in Birth By Sleep.  The game also had some neat gameplay ideas, too.

Kara is a cool character.  So is Angi and Brandy.

I don't have a new blog up yet, but Tuesday evening I will, so make sure to read that.

Finding the Good in Bad Games, Round Two


Posted on 08/24/2014 at 08:36 PM | Filed Under Blogs

Metroid Prime Pinball is great because it's a pinball game first and a Metroid game second.  Even as far as silly pinball is concerned, there are so many better choices than Mario Pinball Land.  Like Kirby's Pinball Land, for instance.

Pac-Man and the Ghostly Adventures may be an awful cartoon, but the game based on it is actually a pretty decent 3-D platformer.  I reviewed it and didn't think it was that bad.  They're even making a sequel this year!

I never played Ehrgeiz, but I did play some of Square's other underrated PSOne games, like Einhander, Chocobo Racing, and Brave Fencer Musashi.

Other M wasn't bad, but it definitely was one of the worst Metroid games.

Mario Pinball Land just wasn't a very good game of pinball.  I've played enough other video pinball games to know that.

I thought Pac-Pix was brilliant.  It was actually the very first DS game I ever played, as a demo when they first showed off the DS at E3 one year.

Retro Game of the Week: Extreme-G

Well he drives a big pink car that's easy to steer and can take a lot of hits, so yeah.

I THINK I remember my brothers renting this one once. But yeah, F-Zero X was much better.  I loved how F-Zero X had a random track generator.  That was a great feature to level the playing field if you had two-player races.  I wish other racing games would adopt that idea more often.

My favorite F-Zero characters are the fat samurai guy who drives the pink car, and Mrs. Arrow.

I bet she's in Tag 2.  Seems EVERYONE is in that game.

Lootcrate August 2014

I think one of my brothers subscribed to Lootcrate.  I might have to look into that, although I have enough junk as it is.

Checking out the Canadian Lays Potato Chip Contest Entries

I want to try the Lays contest flavors in the US, but I can't find them in stores anywhere.  And I even have close relative that work at Frito!  The mac & cheese one sounds awesome.  I bet it wins.
