In this newest installment of Rayman Origins, I get the Lum Medal in Best Original Score, where I face birds, both malevolent and not, and weird, electrical wires. No idea what that all has to do with a musical-themed desert location, but I just accept it. It’s not the strangest thing we see in this…

A Better Way to Level Up
I have mixed feelings about leveling up in video games. As we all know, this common feature of RPG’s allows us to make our characters more powerful and, in any game that includes it, it is typically a requirement. You simply can’t get through RPGs without leveling up your characters, or else you’ll be doomed…
Youtube Time: The Duck Plays: Fragile Dreams-Part 16
Things start to get really weird in Fragile Dreams at this point (as if they haven’t already) as I continue exploring the underground tunnels. Such oddities include multi-limbed enemies that scream and shoot fireballs and a really cryptic memory involving a bell. I am so lost in the plot at this point…. All I can…
Youtube Time: The Duck Plays: Rayman Origins-Crazy Bouncing (Time Trial)
In today’s newest installment of Rayman Origins, I get the Time Trial in Crazy Bouncing, though it gave me no shortage of trouble. Those darn spiky birds are an absolute menace, I say!
The Lost World of DKC2
I’ve always loved secret levels in games. Even if I’ve played through them countless times, knowing they aren’t a part of the main game just makes them feel special, and I like that. When I cover secrets in games, however, I typically write about secrets that aren’t as well known, such as the 1000th Yellow…
Youtube Time: The Duck Plays: Fragile Dreams-Part 15
In today’s newest installment of Fragile Dreams: Farewell Ruins of the Moon, we finally get to see what’s through the door in the hotel. After that, we make our way into a spooky tunnel and go down a really long ladder. So, in short, more of the usual excitement you’ve come to expect from this…
Youtube Time: The Duck Plays: Rayman Origins-Crazy Bouncing (Lum Medal)
Hooray, today in Rayman Origins, we finally get to check out world two, the Desert of Dijiridoos! The first video in this strange location involves getting the Lum Medal in Crazy Bouncing. There is some bouncing, but I’m not certain how crazy it is. Rayman also gains the ability to fly with his hair again. …
Youtube Time: The Duck Plays: Fragile Dreams-Part 14
Welcome back to Fragile Dreams: Farewell Ruins of the Moon! Today, I wander aimlessly until I find the moon the weird ghost girl wanted, and then I fight an evil tree. That’s right. An evil. Tree. It kicks my butt.
Youtube Time: The Duck Plays: Rayman Origins-Hi-Ho Moskito (Lum Medal)
Hey there, everyone, I have an exciting video for you all today! This is Rayman Origins’ first moskito level (misspelled on purpose), where you actually get to ride around on a giant pink mosquito that can shoot and suck up enemies! While these levels can get pretty brutal later on in the game, they are…
What Makes Super Metroid Great: 21 Years Later
The waning health of my Super Nintendo has been a double-edged sword. On one hand, it is quite a sad day indeed when one of your oldest consoles begins to die. (Well, characters disappearing is definitely a nuisance, to say the least.) Plus, now I need to hunt down a used one, still in working…
