It is now time for the Duck’s second Listmas list. This one is kind of like my gaming Christmas list, listing all the gaming-related things I would like to see someday, whether they be things that can actually happen someday or are merely silly and impractical.

Merry Listmas: Things I Dislike About Games I Like
Hello, everyone, and welcome to the duck’s first Listmas list. I enjoy lists, whether it’s keeping track of all my games (in order from best to worst, of course) and realizing that my collection might be getting a wee bit enormous or marking things off a list and knowing that I’m getting one step closer…
Glitches Involving Injustice
Today the Duck is continuing my little glitch series with a description of glitches involving injustice in this already unfair world. These glitches involve the unfair deaths and restarts that can sometimes be as amusing as they are frustrating. Sometimes, your characters end up in another dimension (at least, they might as well be): In…
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…
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,…

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…
Games That Inspire Adult Tantrums
Several posts ago, I wrote about how many video games seem to be getting easier now than in the past. This made me think of games on the other side of the spectrum. Not really difficult games, though, as you’d expect. Difficult games can be good for those who like a challenge. But, what I…
The Duck’s Personal Trials and Joys of Multiplayer Gaming
I am a solitary gamer. I hardly ever do any multiplayer, and I have never done any online multiplayer gaming (except PC gaming once playing “Runescape” on an old computer that froze every two seconds). Just never wanted to, plus no way am I paying to use XBox Live. You raise the price of each…
Are Games Getting Too Easy?
Seriously, are they? Over the years, I’ve been noticing that an increasing number of new games take less and less effort to beat nowadays. I never have to wonder if I’ll be able to beat a new game or not. In the past, I had many games sitting around that I needed to return to…
