14.11. A very obscure little show with lots of potential. It's actually based on an Argentinian comic book about a Batman-like female mercenary who hunts Nazi war criminals and scientists who continue their superhuman experiments in hiding. It isn't all action, but there's also hints of telenovela and stuff. The concept is great, even James Cameron supposedly plagiarized it in Dark Angel. This show suffers from multiple severe flaws, mainly that it's aimed for little kids so they had to cut the juicier stuff and forget the backstory entirely, which in turn makes the thing feel very confusing and flat unless you know the comic. The writing is also very wonky, dialogue weak and sound effects cheap and overused. On the other hand the animation is top notch television quality and visually the show has way more personality than most similar cartoons of the day. I just wish this show was more adult-oriented so they could've had utilized the source material properly. [youtube id=YuYaHTqCGgg]

Some years ago I decided to play the first three Mega Man games, but at the end I never beat the first one. If I remember correctly there was a part where's this one secret item you're supposed to get or else you can't get to the end. Naturally you couldn't know about this thing unless you had already screwed up, cheated or had help from someone beforehand. That's bullshit.

Even though I LOVE the original, I've never bothered to complete this one. The Sega-CD version is just perfect as it is, but I found the remake mostly boring and slow even if it's nowhere near as filled with new content as Silver Star. I know the original doesn't start really kicking until few hours in, but this is like 10+ hours or so and that's way too much.

I used to play this thing on an emulator and still never made it to the end. SMB2 was supposed to be more advanced and difficult version of the first one, but somewhere along the way they got really carried away with the idea. It mostly works just like the original, but now there are all new hazards that can kill you instantly plus all the infamous jumps that require one nano-pixel accuracy. The big boss of Nintendo America tried this game out and was so frustrated with it that he instead told Nintendo to give Western players something else.

I can't remember the last time I played this gem, but I remember feeling very frustrated since the difficulty isn't easy. Maybe someday I'll have to try it out again. Demon's Crest reminds me of this PC hysteria we have these days. Back in the day conservative parents lost their shit when they saw this game, since it has so many references to gothic horror and all kinds of evil forces, so that's why it's so rare these days. The game itself is brilliant.

I've owned this game since it was released but never made it through. The reason being that I really hated the game itself, it simply bore and annoyed me to death. For example, the story and the characters are as boring and flat as they come, I hated the voice actors and some of the design choices are just plain terrible. Unlike some of the 16-bit RPG's you still can't save FFXII whenever you want and the save points are very scarce, you might have to run back and forth for hours just to be able to shut the game and get some shuteye. The dungeons are just endless one way tubes with unlimited amounts of one or two basic enemies and building character abilities is just one guessing game with zero depth In other words, it's a bad game.

11.11. I think one should always be willing to learn to understand other people even if you're not into their way of thinking. That's why I gathered some Soviet-era ideological literature and had some fun with it. Good thing this stuff is still stored in local libraries as historical documents. So far I've read this book and a one big collection of essays, speeches and letters, and it's very fascinating. I don't think even people advocating this stuff have ever read all this nonsense. But now I understand the strange logic behind Soviet Union a little more than I did before, and that's just what I wanted. There will be more...

9.11. It just happened that I found an incomplete saved game I had completely forgotten about, so had to play this thing through once more. Still one of the best games ever made.
