Ironically, I played/beat DuckTales 2 before. I rented it from the video store way back in the day and beat it in a weekend. It took me almost 20 years to finally buy it again. Chip N Dale 2 will be a whole new experience for me as I've only dabbled in that game. I have one last Capcom treasure coming, but that won't appear until near Christmas.

Yeah, my friend played one of the Shin Megami Tensei games for the DS or 3DS and he said it was incredibly brutal. The original Persona games were very brutal and very grind heavy. I grinded in Shining, but it was never to that extent. I've always wanted to like the SMT games and there many off shoots, but I never know where to jump in. I've heard good things about Persona 3/4 and Digital Devil Saga.

I bought Glen Frey's greatest hits and he does have some stand out tracks. "The Heat Is On" and "You Belong To The City" were worth it for the purchase. Honestly, I've never dived deeply into the Eagles. I obviously know their radio hits, which are hit and miss, so I'll be curious to hear more from them in the future.

Billy Idol is some FANTASTIC driving music and some good music to get the blood pumping. I think he straddles the line of cheese and rocking just perfectly. 'Cradle Of Love' is also another fantastic song and video.

I don't think I was ready for that. It's.. It's... PERFECT

Pandemonium! was...playable I suppose. 3D platformers were still in the primordial soup of being developed before the release of Mario 64. Crash Bandicoot 1 is in the same boat, and it's easy to point to Crash as being the better game. I had high hopes for the ability to choose between two characters but there is just no reason to pick Fargus. His cartwheel move only defeated enemies you could already bounce off of. If he was invulnerable during a cartwheel then that would allow for unique solutions for avoiding obstacles in the same way Nikki's double jump gets her easily past obstacles. And as I recall you were booted to the title screen on each game over making the game feel very slow to progress in. I caved and started typing in the password for all levels and 30 lives as I played each level in order.

The beginning and ending cutscenes are very charming though. And some stages have Sonic-esque segments of you running down slopes at high speeds and jumping at the right moments to stay on the path. Those moments are great.
