Vagrant Story is one of Mark's all-time favorite games, but is he ready to talk about Ashley Riot's butt? Can Caitlin cope with the madness that is JoJo? Or capybara feet? It's a whole lot. StarVaders allows us a break to focus entirely on the game of it. buff.ly/L8nzgR8

The nineties were a rough place, as the writing of Parasite Eve reminds us. Is Jusant a corrective, given that it has no dialog at all?

Why do we allow some games, even ones we enjoy, to drop off and go on the back burner? And why do some get picked up again and not others? It is mysterious, much like why designers continue to insert terrible "comic relief" characters in games like Okami. buff.ly/vCcSdRP

This was my first run win in Monster Train 2. I didn't realize I was going to win after I had multiple retries of this last turn moving Fel and the two angels around trying to see what was the highest amount of damage I could get (1822 of the 2004 health was the best I could manage)😆

How much ax could an Ax Battler battle if an Ax Battler could battle ax is a question Golden Axe fails to address, but it gets to be brilliant and foundational all the same. We then turn to Avowed, Obsidian's latest RPG. redcircle.com/shows/912e34...
