See ya, Giant Bomb

Well, this is awkward…

I used to be a huge fan of Giant Bomb.

This blog post mirrors a blog post I made on GameSpot in October 2007. There I expressed my huge dissatisfaction with GameSpot's decision to fire Jeff Gerstmann. It seems like some people don't learn from history as it seems to have repeated itself.

Bye Giant Bomb. You used to be Giant Fun. Today you're just a wet firecracker.

Finally found it!

I finally found the first game I played on an IBM PC back in the mid-to-late 80'ies -- Willy the Worm. I've been looking for it for years. I remember it even came with a level-editor which gave us hours of fun. Until we found Larry Laffer.. ;)

Minesweeper Flags - Annoying piece of crap

I rarely buy Live Arcade-games because most of them pretty much suck. If a game doesn't appeal to me within the first few minutes of playing the free demo, it''s deleted. If a game looks and feels promising, it might stay on my box a little longer. And if I feel like I'm going to be playing it some more, I might even buy it. Then there are games like Minesweeper Flags. What an annoying piece of crap that game is. I started the game, selected game-type, pressed the A-button 3-4 times -- then the free play-time was up and the game ended. What kind of marketing is that?  Give the player a complete round or a few minutes, at least.
