I haven’t done this in a while, but you can bet that when I start to resort to the 100 theme challenge and the 30 day gaming topic…um, thingy for blog post topics, I’m running out of ideas. You’re welcome for the honesty. Ahem, today’s 30 day video game topic is #9, the saddest game…

Top Anticipated Games: #gamersonwatch
With E3 at a close, I must make a confession. While I have certainly heard of this important gaming event, I admit that I don’t typically pay it much heed, and any news I do hear comes from random people or articles on the Internet. Nevertheless, I have a short list for you all in…
Listmas: Favorite Items and Weapons
Video games are home to much more than just delightful characters to control and interesting locations to explore. No, most games just wouldn’t be complete if it weren’t for creative and useful items and weapons that make the game that much more fun. So now, a list of some of my favorite items. Those I…
Games I’m Thankful For: Final Fantasy XIII
Image By Flickr User: Al Pavangkanan (cc) With Thanksgiving having come and gone this week, I thought I’d look back at a few of the games I’m most grateful to have had the chance to play over the years. Like the Duck of Indeed, there’s more than a few games on that list: The Legend of…
I Don’t Have the Patience for Multiple Endings
As I’ve been saying, I have been busy catching up on a bunch of old games I was told were the duck’s quack, and one game I beat rather recently was “Chrono Trigger”, a game made by the same developers as “Final Fantasy”. The story involves our heroes traveling through time in their efforts to…
Gaming Humiliation: The Massage Mini Game in “FFX-2”
My next post on humiliating and/or embarrassing things in video games was a no-brainer. If you’ve ever had the misfortune of playing “Final Fantasy X-2”, you’ll notice right away that it’s, to put it lightly, silly. I’m not going to say too much against it, as I know it does have its fans, but I’m…
A Plea for FF8 Assistance
With Cary and Jacob already on their quests to complete “Metroid Prime” and “Final Fantasy VII”, respectively, it got me thinking of a quest of my own that I would like to accomplish one day. My own game to complete is “Final Fantasy VIII”. I have reached the final boss, but I just can’t beat…
The Inanities of Video Game Bosses (Created by Square, I Mean)
Some time ago, I replayed “Kingdom Hearts”, a game I had gone through two times prior, and yet, for some reason, this was the first time that something struck me. Video game bosses are weird. Not just the concept (why are they even called “bosses” to begin with?), but…you know what, have you ever beaten…
The Duck Discusses the Wii, 360, and PS3 Generation: Part 3-Sony Still Can’t Think of Creative Names
Today is the last day of my series of posts on what I like and dislike about the last generation of consoles, the Wii, the 360, and the PS3. While I loved the PlayStation 2, I actually didn’t have any intention of getting the PS3 because Naughty Dog was still refusing to make any more…
The Duck Discusses the Wii, 360, and PS3 Generation: Part 2-360 Boxes
Not long ago, I published a post discussing what I like and dislike about the Wii, and seeing as the next console of this particular generation that I bought was the XBox 360, it makes sense for Microsoft’s console to be the subject of the second post in this series. It’s a funny thing, though,…
