Dragon's Crown is great.  The Amazon is who I usually play as.

I have this collection as well.  I wrote a blog about it on 1up a few years back.  Sly Spy reminded me of a goofy Rolling Thunder.

As nasty as it is, Tab is a drink with no 'e' in it.  So is Tang.  How about Kool-Aid?

Back when I was writing for The Dallas Morning News, I was the designated Pokemon expert for a couple of years there.  So I also got to review a lot of other monster games like Digimon and Monster Rancher.  Monster Rancher was one of the better imitators, if I remember correctly.  I don't remember much about the series, though.  I know one of the PS2 titles let you use DVDs to make monsters.  And the TV cartoon was awful.  And when they remade Solomon's Key for the Game Boy Color, they changed all the characters into Monster Rancher ones.  Silly Tecmo!

Yes I know the story.  Sometimes timing means a lot.  Grune and Moses and Norma were awesome.

I've been playing a lot of Yoshi's New Island lately, and reviewing a bunch of other stuff, as you know.  The Witch and the Hundred Knight is one of the things on my list to review, so later on you can catch that and see if the game is any good.

My friend really liked that game, so it must be good.

Yeah, Presea's backstory was pretty weird, if I remember correctly.

Well if you're going to get Inazuma Eleven to support Level 5, which is a good thing to do, don't forget to also get Weapon Shop de Omasse.  They did that, too.

The English voice actor for Kratos also did the voice for He-Man, I hear.

Yeah Natsume should do more with the Gabrielle characters, seeing as how popular Monster High is and all.

A review of Yoshi's New Island would be a good idea.  But sometimes I just like to play a game and enjoy it without having to worry about writing a review about it, and Yoshi's New Island is going to be one of those games.  I hope you can understand.

However, since you asked, here's some thoughts I have about the game:

Nintendo isn't doing a very good job of fighting back the argument that their games are the same. Yoshi's new game is so similar to his SNES adventure that whole levels and worlds feel VERY familar.  However, the game is still incredibly fun.  It's just a testament to how beautifully amazing the original game was if an imitation of it is still fantastic.

I also really like the music in the new game.  Well, OK, a couple of the songs, like the title screen music, sound like the Drunken Kazoo Brigade, but otherwise the tunes are really growing on me.  I just love video game music with great instrumentation and catchy tunes.

I also just really like Baby Mario & Luigi.  I'd adopt them if I could.  But then they'd need a mommy and now I'm just being silly.

OK I hope that'll hold you for a while.
