Some Top Video Game Songs with Organs in Them
So the other day I was thinking of a video game song in
my head (because this is the sort of thing I do often) and accidentally
confused it with another video game song, because both of them involved organs.
Spurred by this thought, I tried to think up all the video game songs I could
involving organs and came up with a surprisingly high tally. Deciding that
there are far stupider inspirations for articles out there (which I will
assuredly act upon later) I decided to compose a list of some top video game
songs with organs in them.

A Paper on Environmentalism
Earlier today I was struggling with an assignment for an unnamed class in which I had to identify a problem related to the class being green and offer a solution. I was not fond of the assignment, so I did something I've done once or twice before to amuse myself: I wrote out a fake, comedic version of the essay. Normally I only write these for my own amusement, but upon showing it to a friend they said I should post it on the blog. Given that school and my own laziness is keeping this blog as empty as usual lately, I figured why the hell not. So here, presented for your amusement, is some unedited, off-the-cuff madness from a bored and frustrated paper writer:

Mega Man Battle Network 2 Review
This week on Genericide, I review a game that isn’t over
a decade old! AHAHAHA! I had you going for a second there. Seriously though,
today I’m reviewing an old Game Boy Advance game you quite possibly have never
played or care about. Because what do I look like, some kind of normal person who lives in the present?
All of the cool kids are stuck decades in the
past, man. That and people with malfunctioning time machines.

Sonic Adventure 2: Battle Review
So over my holiday I’ve been submerged in a sea of older
games, even with enticing new titles vying for my attention, mostly from the
holiday steam sale. If this seems silly, it’s only because it is, but I can’t
say I haven’t been enjoying myself revisiting past titles. One such title is
one I already owned but lost track of, so I bought it for five bucks during a
sale and became instantly obsessed with it again. That game will be obvious to
anyone who read the top of the page. That’s right; I’ve been playing a
considerable amount of Bill Hatcher and the Giant Egg Sonic Adventure 2:
Battle.
Sonic Adventure 2 was released for the ultimately doomed
Sega Dreamcast console in 2001, but due to the whole doom thing it was later
re-released with extra content on the Nintendo Gamecube less than a year later.
This was the version my smaller self owned in the somewhat distant past, and I
quite liked it at the time. I’m happy to report that the game holds up in my
eyes today, but it’s still not without its problems.
The right image is the
copy I remember from my childhood. The left image is the copy people with poor
purchasing luck remember.

Paper Mario: Sticker Star Review
[Note: As I was finishing writing this review I had noticed a prevalent
trend. Although I don’t regret it because this a blog of my opinions rather
than a completely impartial outlet, here’s a fun drinking game I’ve devised:
take a drink every time I compare Sticker Star to other Mario RPGs. Good luck.]
So I return, metaphorically jumping out of the casket at
a comical moment to inform everyone that I am not, in fact, dead. This past
month of academically induced radio silence holds the new record for longest
amount of time I’ve spent without updating the blog. So now that the honeymooning
period of updates every week or two is over I’ve moved boldly forward in the
realm of not updating, soaring to new heights with the new lows I’m willing to
set. Um, that is to say that, I’m like, reaching a new low in actuality, but I’m
using the phrase new heights to refer to the new record in lows I’m setting,
which on reflection is kind of confusing. I mean, it’s sort of like the lows
are the lowest because they’re the highest speaking in terms of lows, sort of
like if gravity were flipped upside-down and flying high in the sky would actually
be burrowing underground, but oh wait that would mess up the low part of the
analogy. Er…
Okay I can figure this
out, lemme just get out my tape measure…

Golden Sun Review
So once again we arrive at our regrettably bimonthly
update. College continues to limit my time spent with the games of video, so
there are really only two games I’ve played in the last couple weeks. The first
is more World of Warcraft, and the
second is GBA RPG Golden Sun, which
I started (and finished) another playthrough of on a whim. What’s that? You say
you want to see more of this game I speak of? And you wish to do so by way of
an informative and/or humorous internet review by some random blog? Well that
just so happens to coincide with what I planned on doing, Suspiciously Informed
Theoretical Inquirer. How exactly are
you so well informed? Are you theoretically stalking me?
I’ve had it up to here with your theoretical shenanigans!
Get the hell out of my theoretical house!

On Random Chance
Greetings to hypothetical readers, self-deprecation as a
result of slow update rate, etc. You know the drill. So I have been rather busy
lately, which is partly responsible for the lack of updates. The other reason
is the fact that since I haven’t had much free time, the only video game I’ve
played in like 3 solid weeks is the pet battling system from World of Warcraft.

looks like
