The Week in Gaming
Episode #2 - The Golden Sun Rises
How in the name of Almighty Sinnoh is 2024 two weeks old? I'm still trying to process Christmas, honestly. Trying and failing. It doesn't feel like I had a break. Things have just blurred together and I'm still a miserable, depressed wreck...
I'd love a shiny Spiritomb, but that's probably never going to happen unfortunately.
Within the realm of possibilities, I'd like a shiny Dialga and Palkia, and also a Reshiram. I was in the process of shiny hunting Ultra Wormhole Legendaries and I actually got quite a lot of them, but I lost...
Rarely, I've just never found it to be particularly interesting or worthwhile. I think I've only ever really bothered in the spinoffs, and with Legends Arceus they basically gated off the entire story behind the postgame, which was a tad ridiculous. For all that people complain about postgame...
He's pretty well known so you've probably encountered him by now if you're looking for VG covers, but FamilyJules does some pretty great covers. One of my lasting favourites on his channel is that duet he did with Grant Kirkhope a few years ago:
The Noble Demon is also a really good channel...
The Week in Gaming
Episode #1 - Fun and False Starts
Welcome to The Week in Gaming! For those of you who read my Game Journal - thank you, by the way, it's nice to not be screaming into the void - I thought I'd start a hopefully weekly series where I go over generally what I've been doing, what...
I think mine is either the Dualsense or the Split Pad Compact. The former I've had a better experience with overall, but the latter I've spent significantly more time with.
After playing with the Dualsense I don't think I'll ever be able to go back to earlier controllers, much as I loved the...
#1 - Super Princess Peach
The entrée before the show
Ahead of Princess Peach Showtime releasing later this year - and I really hope I get a review code for that, I'd love to cover it - I decided to replay Super Princess Peach, and it turns out it's the first game I've finished in 2024! Not part...
Bringing the games up to modern standards in terms of presentation would be a bare minimum - as a AAA franchise, the games should be hitting *at least* a consistent 30FPS on the relevant platform - if not 60, although plenty of first-party titles on Switch do fine at 30 - I would say. They've...
Pretty often. But to be honest I think people are far too sensitive when it comes to the use of certain words - tone and context are far more significant than the words you use much of the time.
I think the simplest answer to this entire conundrum is to not want anything specific. With Pokemon, you know exactly what you're getting: more Pokemon. It never changes. It never has and it never will, because it doesn't need to. It's the highest grossing media franchise in the world, and even...
The default town and exploration theme gave me a headache honestly, it wasn't particularly catchy and marks the first time in the franchise history that I've played with my own background music instead of the in-game music. Sound design in the games wasn't particularly strong, and a lot of it...
I'm a bit disappointed they didn't give Genesect a past Paradox form honestly, I would have loved to have seen what it looked like before Team Plasma messed with it. A future Mewtwo would have been the Mewthree that my inner child always wanted, too.
I was asleep. I haven't stayed up deliberately for New Year since the Millennium, and I probably won't unless by some cruel twist of fate I live to see 2100. Staying up to make sure the old year actually does end is a little too paranoid even for me at the moment!
I think it depends on what you want/expect from a Pokemon game as to whether or not these are worth it really. The gameplay hasn't really changed in any meaningful way since the first generation, so if you have fond memories of Pokemon and want to play another one, you'll have a good time. It...
