Trails of Cold Steel 1 so far. Yeah. I know. Not a 2023 game.

Zeep and Marino are certified Cool People. And that artwork is something else. Love the Peanuts one in particular.

Great write-up. I love the game and its crazy story. The mini-games are super frustrating but there's so much to love here, and that ending is my favorite in the series.

Not at a concert, but a buddy and I drank with a bridal party at a bar with a band doing live music all night. We were college kids and they were from out of town. It sounds like the beginning of som...

Rorie is the glue of this site in so many ways, and he's just as cool and decent a human being behind the scenes. Wishing you all the pups.

That egg picture is great.

sparky_buzzsaw posted a message in the forum topic The Outer Worlds - DLC Field Report. on the The Outer Worlds board Mar 2, 9:38pm

Good write-up. I've been thinking about playing this again, depending on how small the fonts end up being on my Steam Deck. I don't think I ever played the DLC and this would scratch a certain itch.

sparky_buzzsaw posted a message in the forum topic Great Games You Think People Forgot About. on the General Discussion board Mar 2, 9:30pm

I got to thinking about Lunar and Breath of Fire today, and while I don't think those are exactly forgotten in RPG circles populated with old farts like me, they also aren't talked about in general. ...

sparky_buzzsaw posted a message in the forum topic Are Metroid and Metroid Prime the same guy or different like Mega Man and X?. on the Metroid Prime board Feb 27, 5:48pm

Same guy, Ronald Metroid. If you want the full story, you need to play Mass Effect.

I had a few caveats with the last one, mostly the uninspired finishers and the Krypt, but sure, I'm interested. The story and Towers are always fun.

That looks fine but with a trailer like that I'm kinda surprised they went traditional Doom rock and not something sillier.

sparky_buzzsaw posted a message in the forum topic Finishing Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII [Part 2] - Who Do We All Have At Least One "Messy Game" We Love?. on the Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII board Feb 22, 12:38pm

@zombiepie: Yeah, that's a fair assessment. I think the game's biggest issue is the teeth-grinding random encounter rate, but I hold to it that the characters for the series have rarely been stronger ...

Confess, Fletch - Silly, smart fun, and Jon Hamm nails the characterization.
