Announced bosses are Sheep Man and his Thunder Wool attack. Also, Commando Man.

When I saw the story, I had to do a mental...

Simon's Quest Dialog Fix?

feeds@yuku.com (thealmightyguru) — Tue, 15 Sep 2009 16:36:33 GMT

Does anyone know if there has ever been a ROM patch for Castlevania II: Simon's Quest that fixes all of the terrible dialog, thus making the game playable for someone who can't figure out the graveyard duck?

Am I remembering this correctly?

feeds@yuku.com (thealmightyguru) — Sat, 08 Aug 2009 00:32:22 GMT

Didn't you used to have a section in game oddities that showed all the various NES games that had crosses in them, or am I remembering it from something else?

Organic Boss Fights

feeds@yuku.com (Bomberguy221) — Wed, 05 Aug 2009 06:13:58 GMT

This is in the same vein as my post a few years back about bosses fighting in stages that put them at disadvantages.

Every now and then, I'll play a game where there's a boss who is essentially an enemy who has more energy / hit points and possibly greater attack power. In essence, a mini-boss you would find in the majority of games fits this category, only concluding a major section of the game rather than being a warm-up for an upcoming, larger battle. Mantis Ant from...

I assembled this list yesterday and added a few updates to it today as well. It's in the same format as the XBOX one, only this covers GCN import games: http://jeckidy.webs.com/gcnjpexclusives.html

XBOX Japanese Exclusives Release List

I took the time to assemble this list. It may come in handy, as it covers import-only XBOX games (which is a fairly small list). Have look and give me your comments: http://jeckidy.webs.com/xboxjpexclusives.html

feeds@yuku.com (RK Sparxster) — Mon, 01 Jun 2009 20:07:58 GMT

...Puzzle games? I consider myself somewhat of a puzzle game addict, but never found any websites dedicated to covering puzzle games from various platforms, like there are for RPGs and Sh'mups, and whatnot. Maybe I'm mistaken, but I was tempted to make such a site. Anybody here know of any?

The Sewer level!!!

feeds@yuku.com (greybob) — Sun, 10 May 2009 20:46:29 GMT

Why do alot of gamers say that the sewer level is always the worst level? I've found several games in which that isn't the case. For example, Clanker's Cavern in B-K is actually pretty cool, once you get used to the underwater controls. So, why do so many people say this?

Wii whiteout

feeds@yuku.com (LambdaMan) — Sun, 03 May 2009 14:20:30 GMT

a few months ago, I unplugged my wii, and didn't plug it back in until a few weeks ago, and when i did, the contrast was all F*cked up. It was either too bright, making the menu screen look washed out, or too dark. The picture on the TV when I watch shows looks fine, but it's as annoying as hell when I play games that have alot of bright colors in them (like Mario Galaxy, Zelda, ect.) Any idea what's going on here?

Video Game YouTube & Other Videos ONLY topic

feeds@yuku.com (Flying Omelette) — Sat, 02 May 2009 10:21:55 GMT

I know we have another topic for posting videos, but a lot of times we tend to post goofy stuff in them and for various reasons I'd rather have a separate topic for more serious videogame-related videos.

Whatever is posted in this topic should be game-related. If it's a goofy game review or parody, I would prefer for you to use the other video topic. I would like this to be for more serious things.

Anyway, here are some...

Good Old Games

Older (but not REALLY old) PC games with no DRM and Vista/XP compatibility. Priced from $5 to $10. I'm picking up Freespace right now. I'll report any issues if there are any.

A Comparison of Zelda Intoductions

feeds@yuku.com (greybob) — Wed, 25 Feb 2009 23:54:55 GMT

This was an idea I've had for a while now, to look at the relative lengths and content of the intros to the various Zelda games over the years. I mainly got the idea for this from people complaining about the intro to Ocarina of Time being too long. Whenever I see that, I think, "they haven't played Twilight Princess!"For the record, the definition I'll be using here is "from the moment the player has control, to the moment the player enters the first...

Hardest/ Most Difficult Bosses?

feeds@yuku.com (greybob) — Tue, 17 Feb 2009 23:09:24 GMT

I've watched alot of Top 10 Hardest Bosses lists on Youtube and the wider internet lately and, well, most of them are just SAD. I actually haven't seen ONE list like this that impressed me. So, maybe you guys can do better? Just post your personnal top 10 hardest bosses you've ever fought in a game.

I honestly can't make my own list because, well, I haven't really played alot of really difficult or challenging games. Even if I have, I can't remember...

M-rated games and Parents

feeds@yuku.com (LambdaMan) — Sun, 01 Feb 2009 00:37:13 GMT

This is just my family, but my parents think that M-rated games promote violence, and that they all are about murdering people. They still havn't gotten over that whole Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas Hot Coffee thing. How can I convince them Otherwise? I tried to explain to them that at least 50% of M-rated games have you trying to kill aliens, Zombies, mutants, or all of the above, but they didn't buy it. What can I do?

Trigger Stopwatch?

feeds@yuku.com (greybob) — Fri, 30 Jan 2009 21:35:33 GMT

Look at this hilariously badly translated article on Chrono Trigger. I have no idea what site this was on. It looks like a wikipedia article, only... crappier. I found it while searching for stopwatches on Google.

And some people thought the fan retranslation was too literal!

I've been playing video games since I was a kid. A lot has changed in gaming, and in the way I play games. I started with games like Pac-man, then moved on to games like Super Mario Bros.

The first big change for me happened when I played Dragon Warrior 1. That game made me slow down...take my time.. and really enjoy gaming. I realized I didn't just have to mash buttons to have fun playing.

Another change happened when I realized something else, "system or...
