"I ain't gonna let it get to me, I'm just gonna creep. Down in Pumpkin Hill I gotz to treat-or-treat.
I know that candy's here, I can sense it in my feet. The Halloween spirit allows me to feel. I can't see a thing cause my mask is on wrong. I'm gonna stop now with this silly Knuckles song."

As to your comment, I do not know why. Please elaborate. Also, Sonic eXe wasn't that bad. I mean, I didn't enjoy Cream's voice or Rouge's censorship but I thought Cosmo was a great addition to the show.

Thanks for reminding me of this wonderful masterpiece.
Really? I thought I made myself clear with this one. Basically, Vector got those black shades with red Xs marked on the lenses for Sonic to wear these on just so he could look like Sonic.exe (or lord X as he's know by now), since hes "scary" for the kids. You know, that infamous creepypasta that almost everyone keeps talking about even now for some reason?
That being said, nah the ShOuw totally suckz!!! Especially Kres Threwdyke! I du naut liek how pussesive he is to Sawnec! (jokes on you, I DO like the show)

Ha! This entire list of traits reads like someone I'd date without a second (and clearly better) thought.

Someone might say "you might want to think twice about dating her." Don't tell me how many times to think, pal.

I was wondering what happened to the penguin in those The General insurance ads. Glad to see him moving up in the world. Also, they're wearing the two strongest forms of lawyering attire - a penguin suit and suspenders. I want to believe Seagal's (what a delightful name for a penguin by the way) greatest rival in court is a crane named Denny.

Bertn1991 responds:

Thanks for stopping by, dear friend. Pff, freakin' Denny. That fooligan probably didn't even go to the General to save some time.

Clearly, it is the beautiful, toothy smile of Waluigi (known back then as GioWAHnni) that is the shiny in this image and not the Murkow who didn't exist in the first generation because the daytime in Kanto back then was never-ending which forced all the dark types to move to Johto.

You think a lucky a trainer threw a master ball into his teeth alone?

I guess today is kind of sort of like their birthday? That's kind of cute.

Admittedly, I never got into Splatoon (not big into shooters... exceptions do exist). I enjoy the music and have more remixes of it on my playlist than one who dislikes the series probably oughta to (I have a bad habit of buying music from games without playing the games first) but I did love the contrast of pointy design paired with round design and believing that someone blurted out, "We NEED to add a beeg fish to the group!" The one thing about Splatoon's overall design I have never been a fan of is the large heads and hands on comparatively small bodies, but that carries over into most media. It's definitely not just a Splatoon thing.

ICam2k responds:

In a sense, yes.
That I totally get. I think the only first person shooter I'm most familiar with was Counter Strike and it's only because my brother kept playing it in his teenage phase. Not like I've gotten to play it anyways (...ok, maybe besides the ghost city or that fun map that took place in a giant kitchen, yep) since well, it didn 't appeal to me lol. I guess the cartoony aesthetic, the emphasis of sea life and the rural feel is what dragged me in to play that game specifically. There's also the ability to turn into a squid that allows to both submerge and swim in the ink, quite quickly too so that's nice. And those weapons actually being based on pretty standard objects like a pen and brush.
Totally agree about the music. It's nothing like I've seen anywhere else in this decade.

Oh crap. I forgot I bought this game... a physical copy, no less, and still forgot about it. Well, thank you, Cami. I now know at least one of the games I'll be playing for the month of October. Also, seeing 80s music now labeled as "vintage" hurts my aging soul just a little bit.

ICam2k responds:

Luigi's Mansion 3? 2 or 1? Just being curious. Granted I do hope you'll enjoy these, the games are pretty interesting and unique from the standard running and jumping.
Maaan, the last I would ever want to do is to provide the harsh reality by labeling these songs as retro or old to someone, even if it's accidental. I do and still love these songs and I would dive on that hill. It's just that I couldn t think of any better name that would fit these types of songs.

RIP Greg Martin. There are so many artists in the video game industry that will never receive the kind of love Martin got for his work. It helps that he contributed to one of the most dedicated fanbases, I suppose. His is definitely my favorite of the Sonic designs but that's partially because I never got a Sega console after the Genesis and the few times during my childhood that I ever drew Sonic characters was while referencing his style.

ICam2k responds:

There are certainly other artists that might've been just as striking, but Martin certainly stands out the most when it comes to Western video game art, especially from the way he paints the shading on characters and their surroundings. Some people nowadays tend to dismiss his interpretation of the blue blur because he looks "barely expressive", to which on one way I can undertand. But I still can't deny the charm that's provided. I still love that mohawk, to which it can shape up into a buzzsaw when he rolls into a ball. Obvious, but ingenious.

So one Plok wants to be your brother and the other Plok wants to be the brother of your child? Wow, I guess Plok is pretty cool regardless of which game he's in.

Mewx responds:

That boss music goes hard though.

Might have taken a while, but this was definitely worth the effort. That is some fantastic stuff.

Big fan of the round cartoon bombs and you definitely have three fine examples of cultured individuals who wield them with style.
