Late To The Party: Pee-Wee’s Big Adventure

June 27, 2022June 28, 2022 Lynn McKenzie

I never saw Tim Burton’s first full-length feature because it was released at the wrong time of my life. I’d just graduated college, had my first job, and had no patience for a movie about an overgrown adolescent who had … Continue reading Late To The Party: Pee-Wee’s Big Adventure

Late to the Party: Metal Gear Rising Revengeance

May 23, 2022May 23, 2022 buttsmcgeeissad

I have played Metal Gear Solid 5 to completion, but I have only given 2 and 3 a short amount of time each. What I know of the franchise is mainly based off what I hear/read from other sources and … Continue reading Late to the Party: Metal Gear Rising Revengeance

Late to the Party: Halo Combat Evolved

January 24, 2022January 22, 2022 buttsmcgeeissad

I’ve been a Halo fan for many years. I’ve lost count of how many hours just dicking around in Reach’s multiplayer back in the early 2010s. Sometimes we would decide to play the campaign and within an hour, we are … Continue reading Late to the Party: Halo Combat Evolved

Late to the Part 2022 Part 1

December 4, 2021January 24, 2022 buttsmcgeeissad

The idea for the discussion is simple, once a week a volunteer (or volunteers) will do a write up on an older piece of media that they are digesting for the very first time. So here’s the link to signup … Continue reading Late to the Part 2022 Part 1

Late to the Party: Avatar: The Last Airbender (Season One)

September 6, 2021September 6, 2021 Nudeviking

Perhaps due to the fact that I grew up in an era when most cartoons for children were little more than 30 minute commercials (with commercial breaks) for toys I have long been of the mind that there is little … Continue reading Late to the Party: Avatar: The Last Airbender (Season One)

Late to the Party: Naruto Shippuden: Gaara and Sai Arcs

August 30, 2021August 27, 2021 buttsmcgeeissad

When I was in elementary school, Naruto was my favorite show. Now I’m not 100% why, but probably because it was often the only animated show featuring blood that aired while I was still awake. I have no idea how … Continue reading Late to the Party: Naruto Shippuden: Gaara and Sai Arcs

Late to the Party: Klonoa

August 9, 2021August 9, 2021 Blargg

As a Nintendo 64 owner, I missed out on many Playstation exclusives in the late 90s. Klonoa, a “2.5D” platformer from Namco, always intrigued me. When Sony announced that the PSN store would no longer be available on PSP or … Continue reading Late to the Party: Klonoa

Late to the Party: Captain Toad Treasure Tracker

June 28, 2021June 27, 2021 buttsmcgeeissad

The thing that makes the 3d Mario games stand out so much is the movement. Even Sunshine, often regarded as the worst of the bunch, provides a level of freedom to approach many levels that developers couldn’t possibly even think … Continue reading Late to the Party: Captain Toad Treasure Tracker

Late to the Party: Final Fantasy V

March 15, 2021March 14, 2021 thesosogatsby

I love dragoons. I just need to get that out first. So much of my interest in this game stems from my love of the design of dragoons. As long as I’ve been into RPGs, Final Fantasy V has forever … Continue reading Late to the Party: Final Fantasy V
