If you’re able to, grab a rom from the Tecmo bowl updaters. Theyve tweaked the AI to choose plays you can’t see on the screen (to prevent knowing the play) and updated for current rosters/stats/etc.

It’s well past the “pick Bo Jackson and win” stages

Over pixels?

Nah, you got what you get.

At this point I can’t even be surprised.

Knee-deep in Umamusume.

I’ve seen some previews of upcoming trainees, and watched a friend play in the JP servers.

I can’t wait for Akebono’s banner. She’s hilarious.

I think the better question would be WHICH Madden?

I’m personally a PS1 Madden enjoyer, but the more recent ones feel so bogged down for ‘realism’ that it sucks the fun out of the game.

That being said, Tecmo Super Bowl on the NES (and the roster update versions online) is the best football game, hands down.

But however will the poor shareholders get their value this quarter?

Someone think of the shareholders!

• Parasite Eve
• Prototype 1
• Legend of Dragoon
• NFL Blitz (just a modern upgrade, keep the arcade feel)
• Smash TV

We’re actually getting a Star Ocean 2 remaster in November, so I can cross that off the list.

The port of FF4 on the GBA was really good.

Original Gameboy, though, I played a LOT of the Tomogotchi game. I don’t know why, but I loved that janky garbage pile of a game.

Wario Land 2 was a constant as well.

I still make the argument that Sonic 2 was the best out of the trilogy in terms of gameplay and music.

While 3 was great, I think it suffered from the level design being a bit wonky on some areas (looking at you, Marble Garden Zone).

Or that he liked Nickelback?

I’ll see past many things, but Nickelback?

Not even once.

Considering I deal with people who blast their music from their phone speakers without headphones, I do not want to know what over-bassed track they’re listening to.

Me and some friends jumped into the new season of Fortnite zero build. Not too bad, even though I have the reflexes of a sloth.

Been playing more Space Haven since they put out a big update last week. I do enjoy the game, but the gameplay loop leaves a bit to be desired.

I restarted my Sims 4 playthrough, forgot who these other Sims are, and just started fresh with my own sim.

Otherwise, standard mahjong games.

I just fired up a GD game with a friend last weekend. I forgot how to play since it’s been so long.

Necro/Occultist all day long. BoneZone and the boys causing havoc all around.

Will also tack on Boneraiser Minions to that list. It’s a great survivors-like but your minions deal damage instead of the player. Great art and music.

I love me some cities skylines. Even if it’s just me making the worst-designed cities and getting mad about traffic.

…my bones hurt, now.

Standard business practice.

• Get it out there, tout it as the new biggest thing. Most people won’t know it’s not busted.
• Improve said item once the company behind it actually figures out what they’re doing.
• Say it’s better, when it’s basically the original thing you promised.
• ???
• Profit.
