I've abandoned this blog.

It's been some time now actually. I found that constantly taking screenshots of games became tiring and made gaming less enjoyable. This doesn't mean I'm done with tumblr though. I have a (mostly) game-dedicated blog linked below if you're interested. I will be recycling a couple of posts from this blog just for the sake of it, but those posts will be over with very soon, if there's more than one or two. It'd be really awesome if you'd follow the blog below.

It is a very common thing in action games to block the player from progressing until they have defeated a room full of enemies (God of War, Devil May Cry..). Brawlers in particular love to do this, and they will do this through very artificial means such as an invisible wall...

All I can see is regret on his face

The clocks, the gilded statues... this image tells a story on its own.

While playing through Castlevania 3, I've noticed a depressing lack of wall chickens (or werewolf legs, if you wanna get technical). Finding this one was such a relief, since it was placed exactly where I would never have a use for it. >_>

KINGDOM HEARTS 3 AND MIRROR'S EDGE 2 HAVE BEEN ANNOUNCED

Currently shitting myself.

My entire life has been leading up to this moment, when Kingdom Hearts 3 will be announced. It looks so beautiful. :')

And I've just always wanted a followup to Mirror's Edge, I loved that game.

Wow. Konami really stepped their game up when it came to Castlevania 3's art.

[thenandnowgaming]

Holy shit, this game's HUD is absurd

But yeah, reliving some of my childhood in the GBA Simpson's Road Rage. Fun game for us poor bastards who didn't own a Dreamcast to play Crazy Taxi.

Another nice piece of art within the Bioshock universe. Not because it's aesthetically pleasing, but because of what it says about Columbia. Apart from the city's clear racial prejudice, this poster might suggest a subtle culture of misogyny as well.

Something tells me I got a bad rom.

Metal Gear's english translation is wonderful.

The story of Castlevania 3- where dracula creates a bad world filled with evil by changing countries from good to bad. A+ writing

So, I finally made a post that surpassed 100 notes! Feels good. No new followers from it, but it's nice to know that there are people out there who enjoy my posts.

This tree looks excessively startled.

This man is more frightening than perhaps all of Bioshock 1 and 2 combined.

do you see that finger

(Censored to prevent spoilers)

But I found that if you attacked this old man with your sword, the fires beside him would start to shoot at you. Interesting little feature. Here's me running for my life.
