What's the subtlest way to let everyone know it's my birthday without making it obvious?

Don't put soldering irons near your phone kids. Shit.

So Yoshi's New Island is fine? And it's one of the nicer looking games to turn the 3D on for. Why do people hate this game? It's 100 times better than DS so far. Woolly World still da MVP of course. Wow... I've really done a serious 180 with this series.

Yoshi's Island DS, you started off well enough, but world 4 hit and you totally fell apart. World 5? Some of the worst 2D platforming I've ever seen. Ever. 'New' Island comes tomorrow, so we shall see. In the meantime, Woolly World be my light in the dark

Since I've come around to Yoshi's Island, I decided to take another spin with the YI DS and uh oh this one isn't as bad as I thought it was either... so I guess I'm playing that now. And I just ordered Yoshi's New Island... I guess it's Yoshi Month.

I just now finally finished SMW2: Yoshi's Island. I take back a lot of the bad things I've said about this game over the years... although I still have a lot of issues with it. Oddly enough, I needed to start it on GBA to find the drive to play it.

Which game that already own that Nintendo knows I already own should I use my 30% birthday month discount on?

Let's talk about the 4 different games I was playing today on my day off. Ace Combat 5. Death's Gambit. Dino Crisis 2. New Super Mario Bros U Deluxe.

Just finished Dino Crisis. I don't know... I wanted a long lost Resident Evil B-side sort of experience and it was definitely that, for better worse. The systems in place were ok, but it didn't have that special something. Should I play 2 now? Or move on?

I think I'm done with Rayman Legends. I beat the 8-bit granny rock stage and whoever designed that level is a sadist. I was a little frustrated with that world actually. Obscuring the players vision is never a good time on top of removing the checkpoints!

Took a left turn yesterday and decided to get back to finishing Silent Hill: Homecoming. It reminded me a lot of Metroid Other M - not a bad game, but a bad Silent Hill game. Also, I got the stupid UFO ending... so thanks YouTube for bailing me out.

I'm maybe halfway through Rayman Legends, but I think I can finally rank all the games in this series accurately: Rayman Origins > Rayman Legends > Rayman 2 > Rayman 3 > Rayman. Legends and Origins is the hard one... maybe they're equal? No... Origins.

2 missions left in Advance Wars and I can't decide if I hate the game or love it. Definitely hate the shitty fog of war though. No question there.

First world of Rayman Legends done. How is this game even better than the last one? (so far). That metal song level... oh my god.

Rayman Origins. 10/10.

So uh, I think I'm in love with Rayman Origins. Finished the first world... I get the feeling that the difficulty is going to ramp up though, and I might start getting frustrated.

Rayman 3 finished. Not bad. Not as memorable as 2, but not bad. The voice acting was a mistake. So now on to Origins and Legends. Questions about which version to buy in the comments for anyone who's played both.

That's Rayman 2: The Great Escape done! Instant personal classic! It had a few frustrating sections sure, but it was an otherwise joy to play through. Now on to 3!

After MUCH deliberation, I've settled on the Dreamcast version of Rayman 2 in Demul. I was gonna do the 3DS version but had second thoughts. I'm really happy I played 1 for the context, and so far I'm loving the game a lot. It's super chill and pretty fun

Playing the original Rayman for the first time. This game is simultaneously amazing and terrible all at once. There are just as many brilliant levels as there are cruel and unfun ones. Just beat the saxophone boss. Probably not gonna go for all the cages.

Sick 4.5 day weekend. I decided to play a lot of games: Air Combat, Ace Combat 3, Pilotwings64, Aerofighters Assault, Chopper Attack. And I just got the AC 2 3DS remake in the mail, and I'm 5 mission in. Notice a trend? Lots of flying. AC7 (and 5) next?

How is Tales of The Abyss for 3DS? I'm thinking of mopping up some of the retail only 3DS games I still haven't played, but was only somewhat interested in, or hadn't considered. I've only played the GameCube one, btw.

Are we not talking about the elephant#80 in the room? Fine. Let's talk about Wes baby, let's talk about you and me. Let's talk about all good things on his taco that I see. Let's talk about Wes.

Bird Box was one of the funniest movies I've seen in a long time. I hope it takes home all the Razzies. Woof.

Finishing Chrono Trigger has made me more interested in a handheld solution to my PS1 backlog. PSP GO? PSP 3000? PS Vita? Keep in mind, I would absolutely be hacking the thing to play PS1 games not available on PSN. Anyone have any opinions on this?
