  • Not the biggest fan of the Fall Out Boy cover, but everyone here that wasn’t alive when the original came out is doing themselves a disservice by not listening.

    The lyrics have been updated, it’s not a cover. Hearing Trump’s name in the same song that mentions MySpace and Sandy Hook has got to be the same level of cultural whiplash as Billy Joel mentioning “Wheel of Fortune,” Watergate, Joseph Stalin, and “Stranger in a Strange Land.” Except it really hits home, because those of us that weren’t adults when the original came out recognize and have memories of almost everything in the song, just like Billy Joel intended.











  • Bonanza Bros, Blast Corps, Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days, Vampire: The Masquerade -Bloodlines, Cruisn World, LEGO Battles, NBA Jam

    Bonanza Bros would be a great couch co-op multiplayer game in a world where we need more. It would benefit from some gameplay tweaks, and adding online play and 4 players would be big.

    Blast Corps was awesome, I found it to be an extremely underrated Rare game. This game in an engine with simulated rubble and crazy explosions would be a gem. I also think changing the camera to first person should be an option at the very least.

    Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days got its cutscenes remastered. I want the full game. It was dripping in atmosphere, and I loved the premise of scouting the new worlds. The graphics could use an upgrade, and the combat could be brought up to par with KH2. But, I love the leveling system and think it would barely need touching.

    Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines is awesome and not super long. It’s extremely buggy, but luckily there’s a modder named Wesp5 who has spend YEARS creating an Unofficial Patch, to a point where all the cut content is restored and it’s essentially feature-complete. There’s a version that just patches the game, and a restored content version. I think he should be given a team and be allowed to curate content and rebalance cut mechanics for a remake. It would be magical.

    Cruisn World is one of my favorite arcade racers ever. It has untouchable vibes, and I’d just like to see that with a nice sheen over it, maybe more levels and vehicles?

    LEGO Battles is an RTS for the Nintendo DS. Put it on PC, nuff said.

    NBA Jam is not very niche. I want a remake, and I don’t care if it’s up-to-date. It’s the best sports game period.
