I finally decided to start a blog

rharpe · Sun 07/12/2008 22:32:47

Blogs have been around for quite a few years now, and i figured it was about time I jumped on the bandwagon. I probably have nothing more to say than the average Joe, concerning adventure games, but it keeps me out of trouble, gives me something to do, and it's something I enjoy talking about.

If any of you are interested in reading it, be my guest: Cartoon Adventure Games [blog]

Blogs are like sandwiches. You can't really have enough of them

Nice overall topic, nice read so far, and quite a nice layout. I'll check back.

(Er, as a matter of fact I just double-commented there... sorryyyyyyy)

Sadly, I haven't played a single one of the games mentioned, except for Police Quest 3.
I really want to play Sam & Max, especially after seeing that screenshot.

I noticed at the bottom of your page it said "XHTML 1.0 Strict". I clicked on it and it posted "11 Errors, 7 warning(s)". It's obviously not very strict.

(not that I have any idea why they say it isn't.) I checked and my website came up with zero errors. So I'm happy. Thank-you website template.

Most of the errors appear to be the firefox url at the footer.

Nice blog, I'd love if I could follow that.. 8)

Bookmark it and make yourself a "Follower Of Obi" shirt!

And you wouldn't be the first, because I already HAVE! (bookmarked, not printed)

Sorry to hear you haven't played any of them... you really should!

As for the errors, I noticed that too. Oh well, the page seems to load ok, right? Hopefully Google,or any of the other search engines, will not count this against me?

For those of you watching my blog, I just added something today for your viewing pleasure!

Is it sad that I've finished every game in the LucasArts post?

Babar · Sat 13/12/2008 11:40:52

Is it sadder (or more awesome?

) that I've played every LucasArts game except Labyrinth (which I can't find anywhere)?

Interesting angle you're taking with the recent articles. For me it always seemed there were basically only 3 companies: LucasArts, Sierra and (Legend, Revolution, Microprose, etc). Nice to see some exposure on other ones, even if they are gone now

Rharpe, I remember you posting some information about chiptune programs on your blog, but they're not there anymore. Can you tell me what they were?

rharpe · Sat 13/12/2008 15:53:12

Hey Babar, you are right... only the three or four stand out. I guess my experience with strange games extends out to the less known companies. Oh well, keep reading... I've added more today!

"chiptune programs", you got me on that one??? I don't even know what that is. Are you sure that was my blog?
