Super Mario Galaxy Progress Update 3
In my third progress update, we continue on our path of conquering the Fountain Observatory galaxies, having completely conquered the Terrace Observatory galaxies by the second progress update. Currently, I stand at 17 stars and over 1,000 star bits. I have completed the Space Junk galaxy, and when next I play, I will be challenging the Battlerock galaxy. I beat the special Rolling Green galaxy...[Read More]
Super Mario Galaxy Progress Update 2
Last night, in between watching the Food Network, Scrubs, DVR’d episodes of WCG Ultimate Gamer, and the season premiere of Dinner: Impossible, I found time to squeeze in some more Super Mario Galaxy. I’ve completed the first set of Galaxies completely (both of the full three-star galaxies, all three special one-star galaxies, and the Bowser, Jr. boss galaxy), and have started in on th...[Read More]
WCG Ultimate Gamer
Lindsey and I were up very late a few nights ago, and we noticed something on the Sci-Fi channel called “WCG Ultimate Gamer”. Both of us being avid gamers, this piqued our curiosity, and we switched over. What we saw was a re-run of the first episode of WCG Ultimate Gamer, a “reality” competition show with video game challenges. It’s a very interesting show, and th...[Read More]
Donnie the…dog?
We were sitting here watching TV with the sliding glass door slightly open so that I could listen to the rain (it was coming down very heavily), when suddenly we see a bright flash of lightning, followed by a loud blast of thunder. Suddenly, a shaking Donnie jumped up on us like a child looking for safety from the big loud scary noises. And here I was under the impression that we had a dog, not a...[Read More]
Boom Blox (Wii)
Over a month ago, Chris and Kelly (http://www.themarriedgamers.net) were kind enough to lend us their copy of Boom Blox for the Nintendo Wii, claiming that it was a great game that we just had to try. After letting it sit on the shelf for so long, we finally put it in and gave it a try yesterday afternoon. We were very impressed with this game. Neither one of us has played the single player gam...[Read More]
Sukiyaki Western Django
Ok. Last week we rented a few movies, one of which was Sukiyaki Western Django. We just finished watching it this very moment, and I could not wait to provide the internet with my review. It was ass. There were some cool bits, but it should have been done in Japanese, because the actors were very awkward speaking in English, and it affected the quality of their performances. It’s suppose...[Read More]
Super Mario Galaxy Progress Update 1
Today, for the first time in almost two months, I spent some time with Super Mario Galaxy on our Wii. I had played through the first star back in February when we first got it, but put it aside for a very long time in favor of Animal Crossing, since it is such a relaxing game. For some reason, though, Mario caught my eye this morning, and I decided to give it some love. Having spent more time pl...[Read More]

Happily Ever After…
Three nights ago, in the aftermath of Episode 13 of the MehCast, Kelly (a friend/viewer who goes by the handle MrsLeftyBrown), while having a conversation with Lindsey, suggested a local wedding chapel for us to just get married. Caught up in the thought of finally getting married, we called that night and scheduled a sit-down with them to go over the details. We scheduled ourselves in for the n...[Read More]
Year 1 Episode 13 Recap
This one is a few days late also, but we have our excuses! Episode 13 was fairly short, as the past few episodes seem to also have been, unfortunately. We had a few topics to discuss, as usual, and went over our usual “…of the Week” items. The interesting stuff started happening after the show ended! Details will be up today or tomorrow! Episode discussion at: http://worldof...[Read More]
Year 1 Episode 12 Recap
This is VERY late in coming, and because of that, I have no idea what we talked about in Episode 12! I remember only a few things. Our show was rescheduled from our regular Friday night time to Sunday afternoon, because Lindsey and I went out of town for a conference. We did our basic weekly random topics, as well as one or two more serious topics. We also mentioned my bare-chested Starbucks r...[Read More]
Warioware: Smooth Moves
Last week, my closest cousin (geographically and emotionally) and his wife purchased a Wii. With this Wii, they purchased a game called Warioware: Smooth Moves. Warioware: Smooth Moves is a party game that supports a ridiculously large number of local players, since it only uses one Wiimote passed between players. The game consists of incredibly short mini-games that are part of an overall scor...[Read More]
