LONG BLOG
My Blogs: A Full Recap
Hello all, I have been blogging here in Dtoid since the start of 2014. In the beginning, I really did not think I would continue blogging for such a long time. At first, I only started with the goal of finishing up my SNES reviews series. Then, I actually finished that series, and then went on to review the Genesis and its games as well as write a number of other blogs on varying topics.
In that time, I was also honored to become one of the regular recapping team, which is a responsibility I greatly cherish.
Now, I even managed to get front-paged once, and I just started my reviews of the 5th generation of videogame consoles with my reviews of the Sega Saturn games.
In an effort to keep all my writings organized in one place, I am going to categorize all my blogs here for now and in the future.
"This is a repost of an older blog, which I will continue to repost once every 50 blogs or so.
Total Blog Count: 292
Front Paged:
- How to Massively Improve Nintendo's Games.
- Where the Hell is Advance Wars?
- Where the Hell is Arc the Lad?
Personal:
Here are my more personal blogs. Mostly, these are simply off-topic blogs rather than actual personal writings.

Where the Hell is... :
This a series that I wanted to start for a long time. Many of the best game franchises for me have died as the generations moved on. The PS3 seriously crippled the Japanese gaming industry, and the mobile market attracted many of its talents. In this series, I take franchises that I am interested in, and write a full retrospective look at their entire history, and analyze why they died. Finally, I conclude each entry with a hopeful imagining of their possible resurrection, which in most cases is unfortunately as mobile husks of their former selves.
So, yeah, enjoy:
- Where the Hell is the Secret of Mana Series?
- Where the Hell is Breath of Fire?
- Where the Hell is Onimusha?
- Where the Hell is Wild Arms?
- Where the Hell is Shining Force?
- Where the Hell is Advance Wars?
- Where the Hell is Phantasy Star?
- Where the Hell is Tenchu?
- Where the Hell is Grandia?
- Where the Hell is Arc the Lad?
- Where the Hell is Trauma Center?

About Lord Spencerone of us since 5:57 PM on 01.12.2014
Being the lurker that I am, I have been following Destructoid for more than four years. Well, its 3 AM where I live now, and I just plunged in getting HUGE in the way.
Here is hoping for a fun time.
Oh yes, here is a little more info about me that is probably not as interesting as I think it is:
-I owned and played about 1000+ games.
-I owned and read about 2000+ books (I counted comic books I read as a kid so this is not as impressive as it sounds).
-I absolutely love Legos.
Out of all the games I played, I only regret playing a few. I am a big fan of gaming, and thus I really like most of what I play.
Thanks to the excellent work of community member Dango, now I have a cool infographic of my top 20 games. This list is not my final one, but what I thought off at the moment. If you notice, they are presented in chronological order:
Oh, and here is a link to my blogs:
