There's a "Hair Metal" song a bit later in. No thrash, I'm afraid.

As I watch the year tick up with every single post, I can't believe we've already reached the 80's. I've got a few ideas for this decade, and I hope you enjoy them as much as I enjoyed planning them. Let's just ram right into this crazy decade face-first. It's The Police, with Don't Stand So Close To Me.

Another bri... Decade has reached its end. We're coming up on the home stretch, but that doesn't mean we're slowing down. Quite the contrary, to quote another badass 70's rock band that I missed the boat on: "B-b-b-b-baaaaby, you just aaaaaaaaain't seen n-n-n-nothin' yet!" Electric Light Orchestra: Don't Bring Me Down.

Um... Why is the pony in your signature a Nazi?

Sadly, only 13 more years of good music ever existed. :<

This might be a sin of some kind, but I'm just not a disco guy. So, when '78 rolled around, and featuring disco grew inevitable, the damn Bee Gees started appearing in my nightmares and threatened to break my legs if I didn't feature Stayin' Alive. So, I made a compromise. Behold: a disco song that I actually really like. Donna Summer, with Heaven Knows.

Four games and a movie, and the first game isn't even a year old yet. Dear God. At least Scotty seems to be taking his time with this one. By Cawthon standards, Halloween is centuries away.

It's not because I don't like it, or that it's incessantly overplayed on classic stations, or even that I necessarily prefer this song. I just wanted to go against the grain for once. A few of the spots on this blog have gone to the obvious choice for featured song, but not this year. This year, we have something unexpected, if only slightly. Fleetwood Mac, with Don't Stop.

Those of you feeling the heat in Britain this summer, I offer you Stevie Wonder. Pastime Paradise.

Yeah. The entire thing could have been fixed if the stakes were a bit higher, and she had dealt with it realistically. It came so damn close to being a great episode, but ended up being the low point of S5.

Thirty years ago, I posited whether we could simply burn down the world through noninterference. It was a question of whose lives meant more: Our soldiers, or those they fought for. I guess we have our answer. Queen, with Bohemian Rhapsody.

"...I shall resign the Presidency, effective at noon tomorrow..." No president in the history of the Union has ever resigned until just now. I remember when Nixon and Kennedy squared off against each other in '60. Looking back now, nobody ever expected both men to become president, much less that neither one would leave the office conventionally. Funky President, by James Brown.

In my humble opinion, hell yeah.

And so it ends. The last American troops are leaving Vietnam as we speak. Maybe now, after all these wars that were supposed to end all wars, this could really be the one. Yeah, Dream On. This is Aerosmith.

This actually has nothing to do with gameplay. Guitar Hero and Rock Band are published by Activision and EA, respectively. Historically, two of the chillest companies when it comes to gaming commentaries/videos. SME, meanwhile, stands for Sony Music Entertainment. GH and RB are music games that feature copyrighted music. Connect the dots, guys.

Shame on whoever let this thread necro. Have them flogged immediately. Anyway, bumping with trailer, and my own thoughts. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q3BctD4dOMQ Now; some people are saying that EA has butchered the game. DICE's current feature list includes: (List retrieved from Kung Fu Cthulhu on the game's KYM page) Now, to me, this feature list doesn't sound bad at all, but I do have a few comments. 1. Galactic Conquest wasn't mentioned. This doesn't mean that it can't be in the game, but I wouldn't hold my breath. DICE is a multiplayer developer, I wouldn't expect them to branch out into designing a single player light strategy mode just for this one game. 2. "Missions mode" doesn't sound like what I want in my Battlefront. While I don't need a full single player campaign, I at least want to be able to play instant action on any map. The botmatches were incredibly fun in BF1 & 2, but missions, by the sound of it, is some sort of scripted, objective-based mode. This is far less replayable than IA was. 3. The lack of space combat actually doesn't bother me at all. DICE has confirmed atmospheric dogfights, and I actually prefer these. While space battles were fun in Battlefront 2, I always preferred just dogfighting on Bespin: Platforms from BF1. And the less said about Elite Squadron, the better. 4. AT-ATs are on rails. This, I have a problem with. Driving the AT-AT was one of the best things about Hoth/Rhen Var in the originals. Putting them on rails just sucks the fun out of it. 5. Battlefront was designed like no other shooter on the market. It was intended to replicate the feel of the movies, not for its own style. Even balance was occasionally sent to the dogs in the spirit of keeping it true to the movies. This doesn't sound like the philosophy of DICE. This new game looks like it's borrowing heavily from the Halo games, mixed in with a bit of Battlefield and Call of Duty. Rank-and-file rebel soldiers didn't have deployable shields or Jetpacks during the battle of Endor. Spartans have them in Halo, but Rebels didn't have them in Return of the Jedi. This is not authentic. 6. Ten maps (counting the free Jakku maps) is fine, but DICE says there are going to be even more than that, so we'll have to see. 7. The lack of Clone Wars kinda bothers me, but I can live with it. The GCW is the more interesting era anyway, and I suspect they're going to be including Force Awakens content as well. 8. Heroes are back. Fuck yes. Overall, the game looks very good. I just hope there's enough content to justify shelling out the cash for a PS Plus subscription to play the thing online.
