Working on the GAB topics for these past 6 years has been a lot of work, but it pays off often enough to make it all worth it. This time we have Dolucky's A-League Soccer, which is basically the game I always wished Megaman's Soccer had been but never knew existed. This is a crazy thrill ride of big hits and big goals, so if you like wacky sports this is one for you.

I intended to put this video up for ages, but somehow it kept getting delayed. Well, here it is, better late than never, Chiki Chiki Boys. This strangely-named game plays a lot like Wonder Boy, albeit a lot quicker and more streamlined. Surprisingly, this is actually a Capcom game, so you can expect the 16-bit era Capcom level of polish even though no one has ever heard of it.

It's my 100th upload, and to celebrate I'm finally putting up Puyo Puyo and Tetris, at the same time, even! As the name implies, this game is a fusion of Puyo Puyo and Tetris, which can be played like either of the two games on their own or as a number of interesting fusions of both types of gameplay. As a game that combines two of the most prominent puzzle franchises in a very successful manner, this will be one to watch for Puzzle fans.

Don't let Pieces' boring name fool you, this one's a true hidden gem. On the surface, it might seem to be a simple jigsaw game, but the brilliance here is in the powerup system, which provides a ton of creative ways to boost yourself or mess with your opponent. It's a hilariously fast-paced experience that belongs in the collection of anyone who likes puzzle games.

Monster Rancher 2 is a bit long for a playthrough, but it's a fantastic game so it's well-worth doing anyway. I'm trying something a little different here in that I'm attempting to play the game without save scumming. Pretty much everyone recommends saving constantly to minimize the effect of randomness in the game, but I'm playing it totally legit. Will I ever come out on top? You'll just have to see.

Here I've listed a handful of games I've considered doing runs for. If you have a particular preference for one of these games, you can vote for it here. There's no guarantee that a game that gets a lot of votes would get done right away, but it might influence me when picking the next game to do.

Should I switch to using Youtube?

My photo
I'm just a guy who plays far too many video games. I own an Intellivision, NES, SNES, N64, Playstation, Playstation 2, Gamecube, Dreamcast, Wii, Gameboy, Gameboy Colour, Gameboy Advance, DS, and PSP, as well as far more games than I could count.

I started doing these game runs both as a way to show off and to challenge myself. Mostly the former, though.
