Highlander: The Series 2x12 - Under Color of Authority

On this July 4th, we celebrate AMERICA... with a Richie episode. Richie bleeds red white and blue! This episode features him in a super-prominent role for a change, as he must battle another immortal. For AMERICA!

Ultima: Quest of the Avatar (NES, 1990)

The best Ultima game on the NES... or any console, really. While it's an adaptation of Ultima IV, It's completely different than the PC version, much like Exodus. Unlike Exodus, this game is infinitely more playable. Let's get on with it.

Highlander: The Series 2x11 - The Fighter

The recent flurry of Duncan Macleod posts is continuing for a couple more days, as I want to get to a very non-special episode called "Bless the Child". But first, here's yet another episode where Duncan must deal with a troubled old friend. I'd hate to be friends with this guy, seriously.

This is the boxing episode. Because there had to be a boxing episode somewhere. Fun Fact: This episode got Highlander temporarily called "the most violent show on TV" because the idiots who keep track of these things count it by punches thrown and only watched this one episode.

Highlander: The Series 2x10 - Epitaph for Tommy

This is a pretty bad episode, but it features RODDY PIPER~!

Highlander: The Series 2x09 - Run For Your Life

Finally, another good episode. It's been a few. While the last one was very Walker: Texas Ranger, this one has a super Quantum Leap-y vibe... which can only be a good thing.

Highlander: The Series 2x08 - Revenge of the Sword

Note: No swords actually get revenge in this episode. Still, this episode contains LIU KANG.

Highlander: The Series 2x07 - The Return of Amanda

It's the return of Duncan's favorite friend-with-benefits!

Highlander: The Series 2x06 - The Zone

Time for one of the worst episodes of this show. It isn't as bad as Season One's low points, but it really isn't good. In this one, Duncan must deal with the bad side of Seacouver, The Zone. Nobody goes into The Zone. In other words, going into The Zone is a lot like putting Baby in a corner.

Highlander: The Series 2x05 - Eye for an Eye

Time for Richie to get an Immortal Training Montage in what is otherwise one of the worst episodes in the series!

Highlander: The Series 2x04 - The Darkness

Time for THE SADDEST HIGHLANDER THING EVER.

Highlander: The Series 2x03 - Turnabout

Quick Highlander episode review. This is kind of a sad episode, but nothing compared to the next one.

Kirby Super Star Finale - The Great Cave... That Some May Find Offensive

 Just how offensive are we talking?

Kirby Super Star #2 - King of Swing

There's a lot more of this game to cover. Simply put, it's HUGE. Previously, Kirby defeated the mighty Dynablade. Now, he'll need to contend with the debut of Meta-Knight, who would later become his arch-nemesis over the years. 1996 sure was a good year for the Super NES.

Kirby Super Star (Super NES, 1996)

Kirby's Dream Land 3, I respect you and I'mma let you finish, but it's time for the best Kirby game of all time. OF ALL TIME!

Kirby and the Amazing Mirror (Game Boy Advance, 2004)

If you think about it, Kirby is a huge communist. He takes all of King Dedede's food and redistributes it to he people of Dreamland. He's a pinko commie!

Super Mario Bros 2 (NES, 1988)

 Today I'm taking a look at one of the biggest games of all time. Super Mario Bros 2 revolutionized the platformer genre and made vegetable-throwing into America's pastime. This game transpires not in the Mushroom Kingdom, but in the peaceful land of Sub-Con. It...isn't really all that much of a Mario game. Read on as we probe the depths of this fantastic work.

Nintendo Power, Volume 23 (April 1991)

I recently tracked down the first Nintendo Power that I ever read. I was eight, and the local library had a ton of Nintendo Power back-issues. This was the most recent issue at the time, and despite barely playing any video games yet I was enraptured.

Highlander: The Series 2x02 - Studies in Light

Season 2's second episode is really, really good. It's one of the better efforts this season has to offer, and the best episode for at least the next ten or so.

Dragonball Z Gaiden: Saiya-jin Zetsumetsu Keikaku Finale - The Trouble With Tuffles

 

DBZ Gaiden - and DBZ Month - winds to a conclusion as our heroes face the ghosts of the past.

Dragonball Z Gaiden: Saiya-jin Zetsumetsu Keikaku (Famicom, 1993)

Dragonball Z Month ends with a bang, as I bring you a mega-post on the last Famicom DBZ RPG. This one follows the events of Plan to Eradicate the Saiyans.
