I used to rent games all the time when I was a kid.  But this was back in the NES and SNES days.  Games cost anywhere from 40 to 60 bucks plus back then, and renting them from the local rental place only cost a buck per game (but there were late fees).  So you can guess what I chose to do a lot of the time.  But I stopped renting games once everything went to CD because I kept getting games with scratches on them and they wouldn't work.  And it was easier for me to wait until games went down in price, then I could just buy them and play them whenever I wanted.  Now, most games I want to play, I also want to own.  Plus it helps that I get review copies of a lot of games, too.

I'm pretty new to the PS4 scene, too.  But I think you'd really like Tearaway: Unfolded.  If you like point and click adventures, I'd suggest downloading The Little Acre.  Shantae: Half Genie Hero is a fun 2-D platformer.  Atari Flashback Classics vol. 1 and 2 are nice collections.  I don't know how you feel about Minecraft, but I also think you'd really like Dragon Quest Builders.  I haven't played my copy yet, but I did like Odin Sphere on the PS2, and they re-released it on the PS4.  

Ah so you know about that one (didn't want to spoil it).  "This is as good as I'll ever be."  Dang!

I didn't think the Pac-Man and the Ghostly Adventures games were that bad, really.  Yes, they were based on an AWFUL cartoon, but if you looked at them as just a game, they were fairly decent.  Nothing I'd recommend to people, but not anything I'd bash either.

I do like that you mentioned how annoying the voices were.  Why do cartoons nowadays cast characters with annoying voices?  Why can't they go back to the days where cartoon voices were done (mostly) by comedians?  That's actually one of the best things about the 80's H-B Pac-Man cartoon was the voices.  Of course, the old 80's Pac-Man cartoon wasn't very good either, but at least it was better than the new CG one.

You know, normally I would write a blog about the Super Bowl commercials.  But I didn't this year.  That's how underwhelmed I was with them.

I didn't really care which team won.  I decided to root for the Falcons since they were furhter south and I have relatives in Atlanta.  Too bad they lost.  Oh well.

I'm not a fan of Lady Gaga, but I don't hate her either.  The halftime show was pretty good, I guess.

I was more interested in the Puppy Bowl on Animal Planet. :)

I got a few of the new Darkwing comics a few years ago.  They were really cool and did stuff that they probably couldn't do in the TV show.  I remember in particular one story involving Quacker Jack.  The ending in that story just made me go, 'wow.'  I hope I can pick up any new Darkwing comics.  I REALLY liked the Disney Afternoon cartoons when I was a kid.  I'm glad Disney is reviving DuckTales as a cartoon (hope it's good), and I hear in 2018 they're going to do the same with Darkwing.

Zero Mission was a great game.  I should play it again sometime.  I didn't like the stealth sections as much, but that was the game that introduced us to Zero Suit Samus, so I guess it wasn't all bad (ha ha, I'm being immature).

WayForward should make the next 2-D Metroid game for Nintendo and the next Mega Man game for Capcom!

Have you ever played Poker Night 2?  You might like it if you like the Borderlands characters.  GlaDOS from Portal is the dealer.

Sometime in March, I plan to write a blog about my favorite Wii U games. Just to kind of honor the Wii U since the Switch will be out by then.

Yeah sorry you were not able to comment.  I provide content for the site, but I don't keep up with the nuts and bolts of it.  But thanks for reading!
