So, ScrewAttack 4.0 is almost upon us, and I was privileged enough to be able to check out the new website. Now, I want to get right into this rant, since there are lots of things on the site to talk about.
Just a few quick notices first:
I am aware that anything I like/dislike may well be changed.

Today on Room 101, a very special guest... when I was still a Wii-hating, 'hardcore', garbage-writing newbie on the site, this guy was busy being the pioneer of good blogging. One of the most experienced, intelligent and respected bloggers on the site, one of my major role models on here, and the kind of blogger whose work I would suggest for ANYONE to read... Wandering Swordsman!

Today, I'll be talking about a certain symptom that can be detected in several games. It has happened previously, it's happening now, and I'm sure it will happen again.
I refer of course, to Super Mario Bros 2 Syndrome.

That's right people, I am announcing to the world that I volunteer to become a moderator on this site. To be honest, I don't know whether I should send this to a mod, or a member of the Screw Crew, so I'm just going to post it here and keep my fingers crossed that somebody sees it.

Today's guest on Room 101 is a rising young blogger on Screwattack. He's established himself as a writer, reviewer, artist, and even interviewer, recently providing an insight into Keith Apicary himself. I also think he likes a Mario game, but I forgot which... if only he talked about it more...

Gah.
Anyway, this is the... 9th episode (If you include the crappy 'Resident Evil 4' special I did with Oldschool Master, and the episode with me, OSM, and Thunderbird) of Podcast 7.9, and it's just as terrible as the other 8.

Quick Edit: I should point out, this blog is fairly useless. I started it when 2 blogging issues were going on, but then I got bored... and was very busy played Golden Sun 2. I kept it, half-finished, until I decided to finish it today and post it, just for the hell of it. I wouldn't say the 2 blogging issues I talk about were resolved, but they did die down after a while.

Sometimes when you're blogging, you don't want to go into depth about things that don't matter. You don't want to over-analyse things that don't make a difference to anything in the game. You don't want to spend hours writing about something that nobody even cares about that much, and only a tenth of the people who read it will understand it anyway.

Howdy g1s, and welcome to a new mini-series. My Famous Five Donkey Kong games are still on their way, and I'm still interviewing DJGrandpa for Room 101 soon, but I've had several small ideas. You know, ideas that would be good for a blog or two, but then I'd just lose enthusiasm.

Being a writer myself, I love reading. Being an online writer myself, I get lots of things to read, most of them being unique and interesting. And, being a moderately successful online writer myself, you can be sure there are some large influences behind me.

Hello everybody. I'll start today's blog with a little sidenote; Today is my 18th birthday!
So... hurrah, I can now buy alcohol (Which I wouldn't) smoke cigarettes (Which I wouldn't) go to clubs (Which I wouldn't)... basically, this just means it will be less of a hassle when I eventually put aside my hatred for Kratos and try out the God of War series.

It's been a while, bloggers, but I've eventually decided to revisit this old series of mine. Last time, we looked at the core games in the Mario series, the main games that stayed true to either 2D Sidescrolling or 3D Platforming. Today however, we look towards the spin-offs.

SING-A-LONG WITH ELMO!!!
That's right everyone, I've devised another song. I did this once in a blog many months ago with the infamous Rick Astley song 'Never Gonna Give You Up', and I never thought I'd make another musical blog again. Then, I saw the Rocky Horror Picture Show...

Guys, this is getting way out of hand. I offer up this blog as the official debating ground of the issue, since I don't want it erupting into other blogs.

The wind was starting to make him shiver.
When he'd eventually spotted the building after hours of searching, he hadn't really known how to react. At first he'd just walked towards it, as if he couldn't believe he'd really found it, and then he just... stood there. Basking in the glory of what once was.

Ladies and gentlemen, my guest today is one of the finest bloggers on Screwattack to date, and definitely one of the most thorough. You probably already know him for his amazing 'Top 100 games' list, so let's give a warm welcome to... Jet Fire!
Well, let's jump straight into your picks. What do you want to go into Room 101?
