🟥RETRO REBOOT🟥
This week's review, I take a look at Ex-Mutants for the Sega Mega Drive. A rather little known action platformer based on an obscure comic book.

Frankly, researching the comic series was more interesting than playing the game

So since his defense is more visible than his offense, why not swap Cole Sillinger down on that 4th defensive line, and try Chinakov on a third/second pairing, flexing Boone?

I get why Olivier is there, but the secondary scoring is anemic, and Chinny is a lightning bolt.

Crosby and Zegras benched from the shootout.

That wave was coming. Josh Doan pots it in during the skirmish.

Sabres turn up the heat, the Blue Jackets look like they all drank a quart of Robitussin during the first intermission.

For a second, I thought Mears said "Wood CRAFTS in the crease!"

Chinakov with a beautiful backhander, beats Lyon.

I'll be an absolute mark for this player, if they can't figure out a way to keep Chinny around, the Jackets are making a mistake in dealing him. Develop and cultivate your talent.

🟥RETRO REBOOT🟥

This week, I review Spider: The Video Game for the PlayStation 1. This 1996 arachnid action platformer is solid, but feels like some potential was missed here.

I didn't have "Battle Arena Toshinden collection announced" on my 2025 Bingo card.

Doing good on progress so far today. Was up working until 1:30 am and started back up at 8:30 am. 99% of orders are ready to go and just need to be packaged. I should be able to ship everything out by noon and have the rest of the day to finish the Rad Shop for tomorrow.

Well, I'm glued to Billy now.
Alright, I'll take it.

I may not care for the PlayStation brand anymore.
But 17-year old me was pretty different.

In remembrance of its recent 25th birthday, I say some words about the PlayStation 2, the first console I paid for with my own money.

Rewatching this game.

This team doesn't deserve Yegor Chinakov, if they look at his speed and tenacity and say, "nah. Keep adding more grinders."
