Halloween is coming up soon, and I’ve got some treats for you! No tricks! It’s a new batch of game reviews I’ve recently written at GamerDad! Please click on the links and read as many as you can, and maybe post a ‘like’ or comment or two. I’d appreciate it. OK let’s begin!
In the fall you get a lot of food with pumpkin flavors. I liked pumpkin flavored stuff before it was popular. But most of it now is just pumpkin spice. I really prefer just the plain old pumpkin flavor because pumpkin spice just tastes like nutmeg and cinnamon. Anyway, here are some pumpkin flavored reviews for you all. Please read as many as you can, and maybe post a ‘like’ or comment or two. I’d appreciate it. OK let’s begin!
Happy Halloween. Today I took a look at an umderappreciated entry in the Castlevania series. I also tried to pattern this show after Count Gregore, who hosted TV horror movies in Oklahoma that I used to watch with my dad.
It’s spooky season, and I’ve got some treats for you! No tricks! It’s game reviews I’ve recently written at GamerDad.com! About half of them are Pokémon related, so that explains the title of this blog. Also there’s a new Pokémon game that just came out. I’ll probably get it soon, as I did like the first Pokémon Legends game pretty well. Anyway, please click on the links to the reviews and read as many as you can, and maybe post a ‘like’ or comment or two. I’d appreciate it. OK let’s begin!
Remember those Tamagotchi virtual pet keychains that were super popular in the late 90s? Well they’ve never really gone away. In fact, back on the Nintendo DS, they had a series of games called Tamagotchi Corner Shop, and there were three of them! You ran little shops and would play touch screen mini-games to serve and help out other Tamagotchi customers. My brother Jeff and I were weirdly obsessed with those games back in the day, probably because we did like those virtual pets (Jeff was even a Tamagotchi for Halloween one year when he was little). Well, Tamagotchi Plaza is the sequel to those games, so of course I had to get it. There are a dozen shops for you to run, and two more if you have the Switch 2 version. I thought it might be fun to run through the shops in this game, so let’s go!
Those epic RPGs shot me down. I couldn't take it any more. Neither could I take my rediculous listomania. I was totally overwelmed and so dove into some lighter, shorter fair and found some cool games. Check, check, check it out (to the sound of the Beastie Boys song with those words).
Just in time for Halloween, this batch of game reviews I’ve written recently at GamerDad.com features all sorts of spooky stuff, like witches and bats and alien bugs! Well OK, it’s really not that spooky, this IS me we’re talking about here. But please click on the links and read as many as you can anyway and maybe post a ‘like’ or comment or two. I’d appreciate it. OK let’s begin!
Halloween is coming up and thoughts turn to spooky things like evil bad guys, so on this episode of The Pizza Pixel Podcast, my brother Jeff and I talk about our favorite video game villains! So please click on the link and give it a listen and make sure to stay at the end for a secret clip!
Princess Peach Showtime is out and in the game, Peach gets a starring role as she dons new outfits in stage plays. So I thought it might be neat to go through all the outfits she has and what they are like. But keep in mind there may be some spoilers here and there, so watch out for that. OK, let’s pull back the curtain and start the show!
I only had half a day to game this week because of jury duty in the middle of the week. Still, I ripped through quite a few different titles. I kind of like playing games this way because it's like going the arcade back in the day. I play a little of this and a little of that. Fun.
I got really fed up with brick breakers mainly because the Xbox controller is just terrible for these games. I watched a youtuber complete NES Arkanoid with the Arkanoid controller you could get for NES. THAT is what I need on Xbox. I may try and get that thing. So, I added some other games to my list and began the deep dive into pinball. Here's all:
These darn brick-breakers, that is. I've been trying to play the earliest gaming styles on Xbox to coincide with my console Gen 1 theme this month. It's been a struggle, and compromises have been made, but it's also been fun, if at times frustrating. Gen 1 might get a miss from me next year if I do this again.
Not the losers of the World Series but the ones drawn by Osamu Tezuka and animated in a tv series - you know, the really important stuff. Not having the 1963 series, I watched some episodes of the 2003 Astro Boy. It's pretty good. Great animation. Sometimes a very kids oriented story in some episodes but still enjoyable to aged me. Mad Krammer just bought the '63 series, so I'll get to that soon. Anyway, gaming.

And lo, a Deadly Alliance formed in the background of Nerds Without Pants. Could Julian withstand a dual assault from Rob Ottone and Mike Fallek? Tune in to find out! It’s not quite a Halloween Havoc, but it’s certainly scary!

Nerds Without Pants is back a wee bit late with some of the biggest news of the year. What a whopper! Can you tell I don’t remember what we talked about? Shh! It’s a secret to everybody.
