How did Dunsparce get in over Dudunsparce?

No one has ever said this.

Not a lot to be excited for today...

Why the hell did gen 1 need to have 10 pure poison types? That's over 6% of the entire game.

Cool, another ranking topic where I got a score an infinitesimal distance away from a group threshold.

I barely use Steam so this horrendously inaccurate graph is pretty funny in its attempt to categorize the few games that I played.

Although I was thinking about making a topic about a certain game that I played this year, which I might post later this week.

Lilligant

[intentionally withholding 4 votes]

It sounded good until you mentioned that it wasn't on SNES.

For some reason I thought Eldegoss was pure grass.

That "reason" is because it is.

Well this was an easy vote after listening to the three songs. My preference lined up with what I expected from reading the writeups.

The Birthday Massacre > Handguns > Miranda Lambert

Hmm, 3 things that I haven't heard of. If we get writeups from Snake then I'll make my vote based on that. Otherwise I might listen to the first song on each album or something.

I'll be skipping this ranking. I already don't like Lindsey Stirling and Christmas music is not gonna be the thing that makes me change my mind. I legitimately don't want to listen to this album.

Almost wanted to vote for Xerneas just for Snap bias, but ehh.

Katamari Damacy Reroll is $7.49 and there's a guy who will pay you $30 if you beat the game in under half an hour.

This is the 4th day in a row that you've changed your title format and foiled my attempt at highlighting this topic series.

Is it gone or still there for people? I never saw it at all so it might have gotten blocked by something that I'm already running. I also don't see anything out of the ordinary on my phone.

Tool - 10,000 Days > Weird Al Yankovic - Straight Outta Lynwood > Taylor Swift - Fearless

I didn't actually vote in the other poll before it was stuffed, but I was leaning towards one of the first 2 (I just didn't decide on an order which is why I didn't vote). Ordinarily I wouldn't use popularity as a basis for voting (either for or against), but with Thriller being as big as it is, it kind of breaks my logic in that case, and it really feels like we should be giving a chance to anything else.

Need another vote for Vanilluxe :(

Oh, I missed that they were the top 2, so I guess that makes me feel a little better.

Mean poll =(

Girls Just Want to Have Fun

Money Changes Everything - I think they ran out of ideas half way through and just added a few more choruses to extend the song.
Yeah Yeah
Witness
He's So Unusual

I've heard some of these songs before, but until this topic I didn't realize that 50% of the album was cover songs.

Can we just cut my week entirely? Disqualify everything and either have the "BlueCrystalTear/darkx/neonreaper" week moved up by one to fill in or just take an official week off for the holidays? I don't want to deal with this and I don't want the host to deal with it either. Not quitting or removing myself from future cycles, but I think cutting the week entirely is the fairest and happiest solution remaining.

That doesn't solve the problem because the same thing could just happen next week or any other week. It's an issue that needs to be discussed ASAP.

Oh yeah, I did listen to this a few days ago, still need to do my ranking.

However, I do think the lyrics of many of these songs went hand-in-hand with Lauper's persona to cement her solo debut as, indeed, so unusual relative to what was radio-friendly in 1983.

Well, I guess this can't even be my favorite "boundary-pushing female vocal pop album of 1983" then.

One of the few typings where I can definitively name my #1 without debate.

Make sure you make an Epic account if you want to keep playing Rock Band 4 online :)

(I had to debate on whether I even wanted to spend my 4th vote...)

I bought the starter kit ($99.99 MSRP) for $8 when my Toys R Us was closing however many years ago. Didn't even have a smartphone at the time, but I knew I'd have one eventually. Then I just never downloaded the game once I got a phone. I have the app now, but at this rate it might not even work by the time I try to use it (some of the comments on Google Play were already talking about how it didn't work on their model of phone).

Less than 2 weeks ago they announced that they were taking Fuser offline (scheduled for next week). Fearing that DropMix might be next, I quickly went and downloaded the app onto my phone (I have the board/card set that I bought on discount several years ago, but never got around to playing it).

Turns out that I was right. Based on the announcement, it sounds like they removed it today, so people wouldn't even have advance notice if they wanted to get it.

Rock Band Blitz is a game that I've never played but have heard exclusively good things about, and I know that I would have liked it based on its similarities to Amplitude. It will be missed.

Can we start blaming Epic for killing Harmonix yet?

If the results haven't been tallied yet, I'd like to swap Happy Colored Marbles and So Many People in the Neighborhood on my official submission. Marbles has become my clear favorite in the days since I posted my list.

The Fucked Jam

So Many People in the Neighborhood - I can see why some people wouldn't like this song (especially in the lyrics department), but if you give me a song that sounds like this on a mostly rock(?) album, of course I'm gonna like it.

The Fucked Jam - I would like this song if it had any more substance. But as of right now it's basically nothing at all. With just a bit more I could see this being like my #3 or something.

I needed to look up some puzzle answers in Hypnospace Outlaw in order to progress, and I can say that not being able to beat the game would have hampered my enjoyment of the game and also that I consider it an objectively good game.

RB's raw gameplay wasn't even good in the year that it came out. What made it popular was all the extra stuff which this topic explicitly ignores.

We <3 is the best Katamari game

Yes.

MartinFF7 posted...

can someone refresh my memory of Katamari Forever - was that a brand new game or a remake/remaster (or some blend of new levels & PS2 remasters)?

"Technically" a new game although the vast majority of levels are recycled from the previous games (this is explained in the plot). The gameplay modes and overall physics engine are new.

MartinFF7 posted...

totally forgot about the first ReRoll since it started as a Switch exclusive before I had that system.

It came out on PC at the same time.
