Coming to grips with my past romantic failures in Stardew Valley, I lay it all on the line for Haley right off the bat. When I wasn’t putting on the moves, I dove deep into the mines for rare minerals. Throughout the stream, we also touch on the subject of long distance relationships, rough working conditions, and a trio of random games make it into show & tell!
At the end, I take a few detours into a few oldies: Atari Flashback Classics and Panel De Pon!
Though I’ve been pining for Haley for weeks now, we’ve made inroads with someone else in ways that I didn’t expect. Besides that, we partake in our first egg festival, discuss our issues with using social media, and geek out over the return of the Tony Hawk series!
Kris from Double Jump and my brother Randy join me to start our latest venture: Triple Jump Start Farm! While the two experts breeze their way through the early stages of Stardew Valley, I spend too much time pining for love in all the wrong places. Also, did we make it out of the mines alive?!
I bought a voice changer mostly to sound like Auto-Tune when I thank people. Instead, it takes on a life of its own when I use it with Stardew Valley! Why does the wizard sound like T-Pain? And even though Haley has voiced her disinterest in me, I can’t stop leaving her voicemails through my Simp Phone (TM)!
Is it too late to claim my farm in Stardew Valley? After sitting on this envelope for years, I finally claim Snorlax Farm for my own! Join me for my first few days of farming, making new friends (and enemies), rambling about the old days of the internet, getting heated over turnips in Animal Crossing: New Horizons, and wrapping up with a Wii U games show & tell!
I can barely contain my excitement as we partake in a series of thrilling online matches throughout this Guilty Gear -Strive- closed beta live stream! Cannot wait to play the final version on release! For now, enjoy what might be your first look at the game!
The flagship franchise of Arc System Works’ ever-growing portfolio of anime fighting games returns in striking fashion. Guilty Gear -Strive- takes their 3D anime visuals to the next level while massively overhauling its gameplay with greater accessibility in mind. Set for release later this year, I got a chance to play in the closed beta. After a few hours of play against the computer and online opponents, there was much to unpack.
A while back, Arc System Works set up applications for the Guilty Gear -Strive- closed beta. Though access wasn’t guaranteed, as applicants would be placed in a lottery, I figured I would sign up anyway. Guess who got access?!
In an age where pretty much every major console is region-free and most games are localized globally anyway, the allure of importing games is not what it used to be. However, there was a time when Japan would get games years before the rest of the world. At times, notable games would never make it across the shore. Heck, it took decades for the now-massive Fire Emblem franchise to get a chance at international stardom.
Though I remember the days of seeing import order sheets in the back of video game magazines, I didn’t really start importing games until the Nintendo DS era. The advent of online made it not only easier for me to learn about these great Japan-only games, but to buy them as well. Here are a few titles I bought from a faraway land!
Years after the Toys-to-Life bubble burst, Ubisoft took the bold step into the deserted space with Starlink: Battle for Atlas. Unlike Skylanders or Amiibo figures, Starlink takes a modular approach with its toys. As such, you can customize your loadouts by strapping a unique pilot, ship, and weapons to your controller before entering warp speed. It doesn’t hurt that the Nintendo Switch version gets access to console-exclusive Star Fox content, including a sweet-looking Arwing toy. Is the game worth the trouble of slapping all of this extra plastic onto your Joy-Con controllers?
