I figure I might as well talk ’bout this, too, e’en though I only truly played the 1st 1 when I was young. The Donkey Kong Country remakes get particular flak, not all undeserved; however, they’re much better than the Super Mario Advance remakes. In particular, I remember how excited young me was when I […]

The fact that this article was on Wired makes me wonder if they programmed a highly sophisticated robot write it. ¿Can we have a flip-side to the Turing Test? — the test to see if a work is so dumb you can’t e’en tell if ’twas written by a human or a robot. It starts […]

My experience with Crash Bandicoot is opposite to Spyro’s in 1 strange way: while I hardly played the GBA Spyro games, — ’cause just look @ them — I hardly e’er played the PlayStation Crash Bandicoot games, ’cept for faint memories o’ playing Crash Bash when I was li’l & rather recently trying the 3rd.

Last week I made fun o’ Ruby for the crime o’ being used by idiots who don’t e’en know why they like it. But Lispers are hilariously crazy.

That’s right, bitches & kitchens: I’ve officially dedicated April to the… um… less pristine classics o’ the Game Boy Advance as a tail-end to my GBA tribute that’s lasted o’er a year1. ¿Why April? ’Cause like my main gangster T. S. Eliot told […]

Since I’m sick o’ political bickering, I’ll focus on the much mo’ important issue o’ programming language wars. The most interesting thing ’bout programming languages is how their quality is inversely related to the quality o’ the people who use them. While I’ve found nobody who defends PHP beyond “it’s faster” & “it’s convenient”, & […]

You ‘scaped my camera eye this time, my lovely waxing-gibbous morning moon, by making its battery run out o’ time just in time. But next time…

Nadie se engaña esta vez.

I wanted to end my GBA Tribute with Mario vs. Donkey Kong on March 21, exactly 1 year after I started it. But then I remembered I absentmindedly forgot this pillar o’ gaming & knew I had to continue. Also, I ne’er did Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga. But that’s later. We have, ahem, a […]
