All reviewsSuper Mario Galaxy2007
5 out of 5 starsCompleting a game's story and beating the boss is an accomplishment in most games. In the case of Super Mario Galaxy, the game is just getting started by the time you've beat Bowser for the final time and saved Princess Peach and the universe. Miyamoto and team have taken everything they've learned about good and bad gameplay in the last 20 or so years and created a game that's both simple and deep. Aside from some…

Dec 6, 2010
I've spent one or two hours (give or take a few hundred) on GB member FunExplosion 's Official Giant Bomb Minecraft server ( link to official server forum topic ) over the last couple of months. There's a been a lot of really great construction going on by a lot of very nice people, and I wholeheartedly suggest taking a look and saying hi if you have a copy of the game. Anyhow, inspired by all...
Playing: Minecraft and BioShock 2
Oct 13, 2010
Building forts and playing with LEGOs are two of my favorite childhood activities, two itches that Minecraft scratches in a really crazy way. There's no actual game to be played here, but if digging staircases deep underground, discovering crazy water and lava filled caverns, and building gigantic towers in the sky isn't some of the most fun I've had in years, I may be losing my mind. I've been...
YoctoYotta's Top 16 Games and Series' of All-time
Sep 28, 2010
I've always hated definitively ranked lists of "the best games ever." Who the heck do people think they are, ranking pieces of art like they are cars or computer hardware where the performance and value are measurable via the good old scientific method. So, just to make sure we're on the same page, I'm not proclaiming these to be the best games ever. For one, I don't play PC games much, and I m...
YoctoYotta's Top 16 - #1: Super Mario (series)
Sep 27, 2010
Super Mario Bros. on the NES was the first game I ever owned. Sure, I'd played my dad's Atari 2600 quite a bit, but nothing on that system could even approach the fresh brilliance of action platforming that Mario's first major outing provided. I've explored and exhausted every nook and cranny of every single Mario game since then, 2D and 3D. I view them as a sport, and--especially with the late...
YoctoYotta's Top 16 - #2: Half Life (series)
Sep 27, 2010
Valve decided that cut-scenes are stupid. While I'd can't say I agree completely, I definitely can't argue against their masterful use of the first-person perspective and silent protagonist to weave one of the most immersive stories told in the video game medium. Add the ahead-of-its-time physics-based puzzles and spot-on shooting mechanics, and you got a game everyone should play, even if they...

1500 out of 1500 Achievement Points. 170 hours. Terrible Shotgun to thousands of faces. Heads rolling. Pure love.
