That's sad to hear about Michael. I don't think I ever interacted with him but I remember seeing him around.
Fantasy Life i sounds fun! I do like some definite structure in my games, so I don't know how much I'd gel with it. My wife played the 3DS original and enjoyed it.
I'm glad Shantae Advance is available for everyone now. It was cool playing an honest-to-God GBA game on my SP earlier this year. I thought it was kind of a middle of the pack Shantae game but that still makes it pretty good.
I was confused by the description of Maki's Adventure at first. How do you have a "platformer" that stars a shark? But it made sense as soon as I looked at the review. Too bad it's so short but I'll take quality over quantity any day.
I never played Glover back in the day either and it sounds like I wasn't missing much! But I can imagine people buckling down to get good at it. There was a lot of Stockholm syndrome with games in the '80s and '90s just because that's what we had.
Retro Con sounds fun!
You finally finished that farming game! And congrats on the win! Think how much free gaming time you'll have now lol.
I've read only maybe half a dozen Discworld books and I think they get better as they go. Color of Magic is good but I'd put it at the bottom of the ones I've read. I've been intending to get into Gene Wolfe's works for, well, decades at this point. It is surprisingly hard to find his stuff used and so much else to read in the meantime. The Book of the New Sun, in particular, is supposedly very good.
It's fine. The puzzles are good. I'd rather just have a menu list of puzzles lol. Wait for a sale though. It can get pretty cheap.
I mainly need PS+ for Destiny, so any free games that catch my eye are a bonus.
The eShop says it's the same dev, but the end of Piczle Cross Adventure makes some jokes about how it was made by one person. The Rune Factory and Story of Seasons picross games feel...more robust. I don't know. I'm sure I could find the game credits online if I wanted to look lol
Yeah, you'll be going from pretty slim pickings to a game feast.
Man, 211 in and still working on achievements O_O That game makes you work for it!
I did not know there was a sequel to Valiant Hearts till reading this blog!
I have not heard of either of these games but that is an interesting twist on Pac-Man! I do like the look of the oil one a little more.
