Crescent's 2015 Wishlist of things that will NEVER happen


As 2014 closes, we begin to look forward to 2015 and all the new things that are on the horizon. Last week, I went over several of the things I am looking forward to 2015 that will probably happen at some point before the year closes. This week, I'm looking at all the things that I really REALLY wish would happen, but am pretty much resigned to admitting that there is no way in hell it will actually occur in order of most likely of the unlikely to Santa Claus is sooner to be proven to exist than this ever happening. Let's start this boulevard of broken dreams with:

Crescent's 2015 Wishlist of things that will likely happen

YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES!
Hi there, sorry for the lack of an update last week. I would like to lie and say that it was because I was getting ready for a Christmas special update.... but that would be a lie. I was just lazy and didn't have any review or post ready to write last week. Truth be told I STILL don't have anything to write this week, which is why I am going to use the end of the year to make up something that vaguely sounds like I'm actually doing some work. With 2014 coming to a close, we now can set our sights on 2015 and all the new games that await us in the coming 365 days, so what do I want to see in 2015? Well, here is a brief list of the things that will most likely happen.

Crescent's Thoughts On: 25 Invisible Benefits of Gaming While Male or QUICK ANITA'S RELIVANCE IS DECREASING! REVIVE A DEAD HORSE SO WE CAN BEAT IT SOME MORE!

I guess they're invisible because they DON'T EXIST!
Well it seems like Anita Sarkeesian is at it again, or rather John McIntosh who also likes to speak out of his exit hatch. This time he made a video version of a Polygon article he wrote back in April (Link to the article). And so, I've decided to go through each of his points one by one and see just how many "benefits" there are after I'm done exposing the flaws in his list. NOTE: I've not watched the video, but I am using the Transcript from Feminist Frequency for reference.

Game Review: Project X Zone

Strategy RPG; Nintendo 3DS; Bandai Namco Game/SEGA/Capcom; 2012
Thanks to Thanksgiving weekend, I have finally completed a game that by all accounts should have never made it to the west. Project X Zone (Pronounced Project CROSS Zone, because X means Cross in Japan..... Sometimes... I think...) is successor to Namco X Capcom (ALSO Namco CROSS Capcom) and features characters from Namco games, Capcom games, and new to the mix SEGA games. But is this mix up of several of gaming's most iconic characters as bad ass as it sounds?

Game Review: Xenoblade Chronicles

RPG; Nintendo Wii; Nintendo/Monolith Soft; 2011
I FINALLY BEAT IT! It clocked in over 100 hours, but I have FINALLY BEAT Xenoblade Chronicles. GODDAMN this game is long. Anyway, now that I have beaten it it is time for the review. And if you where wondering if this was going to be a positive review or not, I've been playing this game for several months and have on record over a 100 hours, do you THINK I would be playing a game for that long if it WASN'T good?

Game Review: The Legend of Dark Witch

2D Action Shooter; 3DS eShop; Flying High; 2014
OKAY! THIS IS THE LAST INDIE GAME I REVIEW IN A WHILE I PROMISE! I'm coming close to what I believe is near the end of Project X Zone, and I'm also coming to what I HOPE is the end of Xenoblade Chronicles. PXZ isn't that bad, but Xenoblade has taken up nearly 100 hours of my life. Anyway, now it's time to talk about a game that can be best described as Mega Man crossed with Gradius.
