That's a minute quirk of mine as well. Years ago, I was showing the game to a friend, and when we got to the mysterious "Drink Me" bottle, she kept insisting I don't drink it because the genie obviously filled it with poison. Then she kept trying to poison other people with it. It's an odd case wher...

Well, I am sure he went to Mars at some point - when he meets Martian Manhunter from Supergirl, he will flash to the island, that transported him to Mars, where he was rescued by Martian Manhunter who brought him back to Earth and placed him on the island... give it time. That's what I love about t...

For Arrow - I got sick and tired of the Flashbacks to the island. EVERY. EPISODE. YES! And they keep extending his backstory every season, so there's always more to flashback to! Remember that time he was on the island? Well, he also went to China! And Russia! And Mars!* *that's a joke, unless he a...

And like you, I dropped all the DC shows (which is a shame, because they were putting all the Marvel shows to shame...) Assuming we're talking about the CW shows, I really did enjoy the ride for a while. But keeping track of the story across Arrow, Flash, Supergirl, Legends, and Black Lightning was...

With a kid around, I've had to cut back on TV time considerably. I try to keep up with Netflix's Marvel shows (finally finished Jessica Season 2 last week), but I'm a whole season behind on SHIELD (a shame, because I really loved season 4). Haven't started on Runaways, Gifted, Legion, or Inhumans. C...

I find it hard to take things like this seriously when things like "Fifty Shades" and "Game of Thrones" sell like hotcakes, even though the former features a sleazy guy who treats women like dirty, and in the latter, just about EVERYONE is out for themselves and wouldn't stop at anything, including...

Ooh! SkiFree and Chips Challenge!

Actually, I look forward to seeing if this is a more convenient way to run my old KNP games.

Remember Datadog! Drew wouldn't leave the shower!

Who doesn't love a nice long shower?

As for the worse - you really think it was sexually harassing? Rather than Gabe flirting? You really think it's flirting when the women aren't flirting back? Grace keeps telling him to back off, and he still keeps climbing that ladder. And many of his lines towards women are closer to predatory tha...

Sins of the Father Best: Learning about voodoo and New Orleans is pretty awesome! More of that, please. Worst: Spending the first four days sexually harassing every woman you meet. The Beast Within Best: When it made me hungry for weisswurst, and I discovered a German Christmas Market in the city w...

Whoo-boy... here we go... Lounge Lizards Best: The disco scene is fun in both versions. Always a nice setpiece to look forward to. Worst: Even if Faith asks for it, even if it was "stylish" in the 80's, it doesn't look good on Larry to pass out drugs for sex. Looking For Love Best: I think the airpo...

In general, the combat has always been the worst aspect of these games, so I won't touch down on that. The only time I've seen it done well is in AGDI's QFG2 remake where it's functional, fun, and has advanced moves you can unlock. So You Want to Be a Hero? Best: Laying down the groundwork for the s...

I don't know that I remember the Michael Jackson thing... "Thriller" plays outside Dracula's castle when you first arrive. How is that the worse?!?! I should clarify: it's the loop of beating Mannannan that's the worst. Because for 20 minutes, you have to run back and forth up that mountain, hiding...

No bad moments? Probably an aggravating moment like the root maze or the tunnel maze, but it's hard for me to pinpoint something SQ2 does that shouldn't ever in be in a game. Of course, I'd have to play it again to be sure. Surprised the worse wasn't the rollerskating area... I was turned around on...

The Sarien Encounter Best: The Spider-Droid/Orat puzzle. Like KQ1, I enjoy solving a puzzle by having a thing follow me. Worst: The skimmer sequence. Still not fun to muscle through after all these years. Vohaul's Revenge Best: HOLD BREATH. PUT GEM IN MOUTH. This is a parser interface at its best. ...
