It's nice that the front page says that you announced yourself savior of Caltrops for reviewing pedo anime shooters, but the time comes where we all have to accept the fact that no one found Blue Wish Resurrection fun, or really any other of the bullet hell games.

We must accept this because it's painful to see our loved ones fall into a spiral of denial. Rentals----> cheat codes---->death of action games? Wasn't it you who said that a game has failed the instant you feel the urge to break out the cheats?

Remember when everyone here was obsessed with Crimsonlands high scores? "Fun" is probably a more likely explanation than "Blockbuster never carried it."


In fact, I originally was only planning to post this on the Shmups.com forums, but this is still my favorite space on the internet so I thought I'd let you monsters take a crack at it, too. Bananadine had once asked me about why someone would ever think to 1CC when the game is blinking at you to continue and I never was able to give a satisfactory answer before. As for the frontpage shmup reviews, I was being openly bribed to do those. Alas, the traffic his shop was getting out of Caltrops was way too low and the deal sorta fizzled. I did get a free copy of Samidare out of it, though.

It's Tuesday, welcome back!
