Video from Youtube user: gmaster2647 The Duck was listening to some music from a most beautiful game, “Okami”, and when I heard this one song, I immediately knew it needed its own Resonance post. This song, called “Giant Monster in Wait”, had quite an impact on me when I first played the game, and it…

Resonance: In the Darkness
Video from Youtube user: BrawlBRSTMs3 Hatm0nster was kind enough to let me use his “Resonance” idea, where, if you haven’t yet read these delightful posts, he discusses a particular song from a video game that stands out to him. I have the same love for video game music, as the right music can bring you…
Community Post: The Elusive Stop ‘n’ Swop
The original two “Banjo-Kazooie” games can be rather mysterious, filled with references to the series’ early development and features that were never used in the final versions of the games, but never removed, either. In fact, I find these two games (the first one, especially) to be some of the most mysterious games I have…

Yep, even in games like those, things that would be considered wrong in real life are deemed perfectly acceptable. What am I talking about? Well, have you ever…
The Return of Side-Scrollers and a Quick Discussion of Other Trends in Gaming
Not long ago, I was playing a game on the Wii called “Muramasa: The Demon Blade”. This game is a side-scrolling action game, and it got me thinking about something likely much more than a normal person should have. But, since I’m already thinking about it, I may as well drag you into my thoughts,…

Review a Bad Game: Porky Pig’s Haunted Holiday
No matter how skilled you are at picking good video games, once you amass enough of them, you invariably end up with some downright rotten ones. So when preparing for this post, I listed by console the games I have that are no good. After marking out the ones that are really should be categorized…
Is a Game Bad Just Because It’s Different?
I have been hearing rather often over the years a lot of people saying that a game is terrible because it is different from other games in its respective series, such as the belief that “Final Fantasy XIII” and “The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask” are bad games because they stray from the expected. I…

Hello, everyone. We have just begun a new page entitled Creative Pack that will list links to a variety of other game-related sites, including links to fan art and fan fiction accounts, development diaries, podcasts, etc. (It’s like an expansion pack filled with awesome links and, of course, a nougat center.) This will be a…
