What Are You Playing (Summer 2012)

Quarth (arcade) 112670 pts.

Konami puzzle game with a simple idea: all these giant Tetris pieces coming down at you- and if one reaches the bottom line, game over. Shooting at them tacks on other blocks, and forming a perfect rectangle shape clears them out (any other blocks will stop moving down while this is cleared out, giving you time to make more boxes). Getting several different pieces into one rectangle racks up big bonuses.

The BGM by Norio Hanzawa isn't bad, even if it's nowhere near a match for his work on Gunstar Heroes.

I have added a bit of information I've found around the dang internet to this.

I've been playing the shit out of Earthbound Zero and it has been a treat. So much of the music is the same or similar, I'm blown away by how well the music coming out of the NES sounds. Lots of enemies from Earthbound show up, it's almost like a demake. I'll probably make a blog post on the similarities when I'm done.

Nice. I like the info and the fact that someone reads these.

I'm so entrenched in this "Summer of Retro Gaming" a lot of us have taken part in that I'm reading damn near anything I can get my hands on. I feel like my next system will be either a FDS (sort of redundant since I have the NES) or a cheap SNES.

I'd send you a cheap SNES but I think most of mine are in pieces, used as spare parts for Super Famicoms.

Every once in a while one pops up on craigslist for like $30 with the hookups and a game or two. They're just 2 hours away, and well fuck that.

I hate you.

It has nothing to do with your posts, just with your name. Hate. Hate. Hate.

THERE CAN BE ONLY ONE (BRETT)
