Every UFO 50 Game Reviewed! - Barbuta
Oct 8, 2024
Hi folks! I've been playing a ton of UFO 50 lately. 73 hours as of this writing to be precise, and there are still about 15-20 games I haven't even touched. I suppose it helps that I've been on a big retro gaming kick this year. And though UFO 50 presents games from a fictional console from the 80s, it's quite forward-thinking in its design despite the purposeful technical constraints and retro...
PlayStation Pastime 001: Gamera 2000, Gungage, iS: internal section, Panzer Bandit, Rising Zan
May 5, 2024
My brother and I had a PlayStation growing up in the 90’s, though it served as a JRPG machine more so than anything else.

It looked neat and that’s exactly...
Favorite Games of 2014... So Far
Jun 21, 2014
We're just about at the halfway point of 2014, and the end of June is when I like to think back on my favorite releases of the year up to this point. But instead of writing a list, I decided to create a video! I've never done any video editing before. Ever . The video makes that obvious, but it was a fun project and a nice change of pace from the usual list. For those of you not interested in w...
Amateur Endurance Run: Dragon Quest VIII
Jan 23, 2014
Update 3/5 : The Amateur Endurance Run has concluded! I had a lot of fun playing through Dragon Quest VIII, it has personality and charm in spades. And there were plenty of memorable moments: Jessica in a bunny costume, Yangus riding a sabrecat, and of course, who can forget the puff-puff club. Thanks to every who watched/will watch, and a big shoutout to Twitch chat for the continued support....
