How convenient then that I finally mustered up something in time!

All game reviews should end with a picture of the final boss in an apron and surrounded by pie.

... dammit, I'm probably going to miss my day. If dude after me wants to go first, you're more than welcome.

Seriously guys, it isn't that difficult. If you've already got pictures prepared it only takes maybe an hour or so to do.

It took me a while to look up pics and take screens BUT THIS IS WHY YOU DON'T START TYPING IT WHEN IT'S ALREADY YOUR DAY GOD DAMNIT

If nobody minds, can I take today to make up for my miss on the 26th?

Don't worry about Omni, your not the only one that missed their day. Put your review up when you find the necessary time to do so.

I'll take that as a yes. I actually have the review ready to go and just need to post it. I guess I'll go ahead and post it then.

The voice acting in Radiant Dawn's cutscenes is absolutely horrible, but damn are they fun to watch. That execution scene with the Greil Mercenaries showing up to easily wipe out the remnants of the rebel army is still my favorite.

It's a great game once you get past Part 1 with the geniuses of the Dawn Brigade. "Hurray, our previous psychotic dictator had a secret heir! Putting him in charge is a fantastic idea."

Sure, the voice acting's not great, but I've heard much, much worse. To be fair, that's not much of an excuse, but still. I really do enjoy the cutscenes, and yeah, the one I posted is still my favorite.

I was really hoping for a screenshot of shooter toaster, but I guess the absence of it just gives me more incentive to finally give Secret of Evermore a whirl.

And that Gamingforce Procrasination™* game Acer reviewed looks sweet, where can I download it (lemme guess, the developer never got around to appropriately distributing it). Also:

NOT ENOUGH!

*

Obviously the never released and never distributed and never finished game would just be about Acer being THE WORST

Maybe Acer would be the FINAL BOSS and the good Gamingforce people would unite and DESTROY him. And his various MINIONS OF PROCRASTINATION.

(Acer Sucks)

FUCK YEEEEEAAAH FIRE EMBLEM. I kinda liked 9 better overall but that's because 9 doesn't force you to play as the horrible, horrible Dawn Brigade for a few chapters. However once that's over 10 is pretty fucking baller with ULTIMATE TEAMUPS and FIGHTING THE BLACK KNIGHT EVEN MORE and HOLY SHIT ALL THE LAGUZ EVER FUCK YES YOU ARE ALL AWESOME.

YEEEAHHHHHHHHH

Man, I would have loved SoE if not for that goddamned Alchemy system. I remember getting all of my spells leveled up in the Prehistoric world only to have them completely nerfed by the change to antiquity. Also the whole deal of the alchemy system annoyed me a bit. Maybe if it was just a general skill level for the entire world that you leveled up instead of each individual spell it would have been better (and less time consuming for how many stupid spells you had to cast).

Sorry for the delay guys.

I've had a lot of stress at work lately, and I was really busy when I was home over Easter.

I just want to say thanks for everybody you did a great review for this years Gamers Month.

I think one of the best things for the Gamers Month this year, is most of the games that have been mentioned I never played before.

Encephalon's review of Bioshock, has me pretty convinced to pick up and play my first person shooter since the days of 16 bit action.

I absolutely look forward to getting my copy of Snatcher. Trust me, I know its an expensive game, but I'm only 15 games away from finishing my anime style domestic sega saturn collection. Sega CD will be the next system I will undertake.

Some of my favorite reviews from this year is definitely:

San Francisco Rush - Extreme Edition
Flower
Secret of Evermore
Sonic CD
Golvellius: Valley of Doom

All time favorite review for this year is Sousuke's review of Super Metroid.

That guy captured the very essence of what makes this game great. I remember playing it for the first time, at my cousin's and he has his video game set-up in a really large spacious room in the basement, but there was no light fixtures, the only thing that even remotely lit up the room was the glow of the tv. The atmosphere of that game and the music were suspenseful and frightening. Not knowing anything about the game, you didn't know when things were going to jump out at you, it was definitely one of the best snes gaming experiences I ever had.

I'm also a little concerned, we still haven't had a review from Hito and Wvlfpvp yet. I don't know if these guys are busy, but I don't want to hold it against them.

Acer is just being Acer, lol.

Anyway, thanks for another year of allowing me to do this event. I look forward to doing it again next year.

I am terrible. I know.

I just haven't had the time or drive to work on this like I wanted to due to various things. I will do my review eventually. PROMISE.

Anyway yes you all are awesome people please be awesome again some more. I <3 these reviews so much. =)

I think Golvellius wins for my favorite review this year. Uzuki took a game that I'd never heard of before and would probably serve to do nothing but frustrate the hell out of me, and he managed to make it sound genuinely interesting. You could tell just how much he'd played and loved the game.

Next year I'll do an actual review of Final Fantasy VIII.

The reviews don't have to be positive, do they?

LOL, no Mo0, I'd like to see joke/hate reviews to be reserved for another thread sometime. :)

Well, for me Gamers Month is a celebration of videogames, so wasting a spot to bash something you can just as well bash in your journal would feel like a.. well, a waste, really. Don't you ever play any good games, Mo0?

Mo0

I don't see a problem with doing a review of a bad game for Gamers Month. The point of it for me is telling people about games they may not have played and have personal meaning regardless of whether it was positive or negative. Most of the time that's going to be a good game, but what's the problem if someone can write an interesting review of a game they found particularly atrocious?

FF VIII still isn't a good choice, though. We've all played it and we all know the many faults with it. You'd have to write a damn good piece for it to still be amusing and interesting.

I would rather have a negative review than no review at all.
