But it wasn’t until 1991’s Terminator 2: Judgement Day. Crafted a truly terrify...

6 February, 2015. The Super Famicompletionists: Gradius III. The quest to play every Super Nintendo game in existence! US release date: August 23, 1991. There’s one thing I didn’t really think about when we were creating this Famicompletionist concept. It’s very quickly going to illustrate how inept we are at gaming. I’m pretty sure everybody is inept at Gradius. I hope you’re right, because I’m downright terrible at it! Were I playing it on an actual arcade, I’d be a lot poorer by now. That’s true...

25 January, 2015. The Super Famicompletionists: F-Zero. The quest to play every Super Nintendo game in existence! US release date: August 23, 1991. I really suck at this game! I can safely say that I suck less at this game than you do. Even without being entirely familiar with it: it wasn’t a game I had back in my youthful, SNES-filled days. I particularly like how terrifying those explosions are. You juuuuust. The Mute City music! The Mute City soundtrack from F-Zero. But I’m somewhat similar in t...

1 January, 2015. How The Stanley Parable. Breaks free of the simplistic interactive narrative. Am I the player? Or am I Stanley? Am I playing a game, or is the game playing me? My contribution to the Dear Esther. Or reduce the scope to that of a pure ’walking simulator’ ( Proteus. In which no distinct narrative is implied. This minimalistic take on story input is rather surprising, given that an inherent property of games over mediums such as film or books is that a player can control the action beyond s...
