Should I add VMU games?

I can't handle it...

So, I can't force myself to play too much more Blue Stinger right now. When faced with the opportunity to play better Dreamcast games (or Dragon Quest IV), looking at Blue Stinger makes me cry.

So I've posted a bit on it. You can read it here if you wish. It's also the first page to include an image! A glimpse of the future, I assure you.

In closing: Blue Stinger? More like Blue Stinker amirite? lol


I'm also going camping tomorrow after work and I won't be back until Sunday. So farewell, people!

(Notice the ads? It won't help much, but any money I can get would be great. I think I'm at like six cents!)

((If anybody knows how to split the post in half and do that "rest after the jump" stuff, could you post in the comments how to? That'd be great.))

I have not forgotten...

But seriously, Rock Band 2 took me away from my Dreamcast. And I'm going camping this weekend, so I've got to promise myself that I'll have something up before then, so expect a new read by Thursday!

It's time for the retarded mascot olympics

No, I'm not talking about Mario vs. Sonic at the Olympic games, I'm talking about generic animals at a generic sports event.
I'm talking about Pen Pen TriIcelon. Don't worry people, I'm still playing Blue Stinger, but a cameo by the PenPens made me crave this title, so I took a small break from that horrid game to write about another one. Is it less horrid than Blue Stinger? Read and find out.

(It's bizzare, though, because PenPen is published by InfoGrams while Blue Stinger is published by Activision. I'll do some investigation to figure out what the hell is going on.)

Cast Your Vote!

I've got a few things to address.

First, Zombie Revenge and Dynamite Cop are up.

Second, Blue Stinger is pretty bad.

Third, you should notice a poll at the top. I'd like you to choose which answer you think best fits the question.

Forth, I'm not exactly sure what I should be doing. Ok, so I'm going to play and attempt to beat all the games, that's not changing. But I'm not sure what their article should consist of. As of this point, it just seems like I'm writing semi-informational pieces on them. I realized after writing the third one that they really weren't reviews, and I haven't talked about the actual act of playing the games much. I'm sure when I hit a game I don't like (possibly Blue Stinger?), I'll be trashing it left and right, and that will make for a much more interesting read. So, uhh, what would you guys prefer?

Fifth, shit, I forgot what I was going to say. I remembered I wanted to say/ask something when I was typing the fourth thing, but I don't remember now. Augh this is going to bother me all night. THANK GOD I REMEMBERED. Pictures. Should I include pictures? Either screenshots or box art. Or should it just be a wall of text.


Enjoy, people. My suffering will be your entertainment(?). I promise things will get better YES I REMEMBER NOW GOING BACK TO TYPE OUT QUESTION.

That was fast

I've had two separate people tell me the same thing. The next game I'm going to play is




























Blue Stinger! Yay! Horray! I'll get crackin' on it once I get home from work.

What next?

Ok, I wasn't planning on asking so early, but I'm going to anyway.

I've already gotten my Sword of the Berserk, Zombie Revenge, and Dynamite Cop pieces written (just gotta type them out), and now I need to know what games I should do next.
So, whichever gets the most votes will be it. Without further ado:

Shenmue (bit long, will require secondary game)
Omikron (bit long, will require secondary game)
PowerStone
Typing of the Dead
Marvel vs. Capcom 2
Jet Grind Radio
Coaster Works
Sonic Adventure
Chu Chu Rocket
Pen Pen TriIcelon
Time Stalkers
Blue Stinger
Alien Front
Cannon Spike
Charge N Blast
Crazy Taxi 2



Ok, so that's a lot. Whatever, pick away. I've gotta go write.

Edit: Sword of the Berserk's up. One down, dozens and dozens to go.

Time To Get Playing!

I've started something like eight blogs. I never keep up with any of them.

But this one will be different! This one tracks my progress through my adventures of playing Every Dreamcast Game* and writing several hundred words on each game. I'm recording all the progress on the wiki I'm going to link somewhere on this site, so be prepared to be amazing at how pathetic I truly can be. I'm not going to tackle them in any order, but if I get enough readers (like five) then I'll hold polls for the next games.
I'm also going to play these games fresh, instead of using my memories; it just seems more fair that way.

Without further ado, I present to you "Andy Plays Dreamcast Games!"
