'F' and 'G' statistics

Well, as you can see from the last two reviews, the letter 'H' is off to a rollicking start. But before we completely forget about our friends 'F' and 'G,' I have some statistics that are sure to delight and... STAT-ISFY! I can almost feel the cacophony of laughter wash over me as you all read that delicious pun.

Getting through these two letters was difficult, not because they contained games that were any worse (necessarily) than games that began with other letters, but because the last few months have been fraught with vacation, sickness, and all-around personal problems. It's almost enough to make a man throw his NES off a second-story apartment patio!... almost. Anyways, I'm going to try to be more diligent with the reviews, but that's what I always say. The proof is in the writing! Here's to approx. 500 more glorious reviews! 

 

# of Reviews for the letter 'F':28, which would be one for each day of the month of February, except this year was a Leap Year. Curse you, random extra day!

# of Reviews for the letter 'G':35!

Add 'em all up, and what do ya get:63!

# of Games I didn't review due to lack of peripherals:4 – Gyromite, Gumshoe, Gotcha!, and Freedom Force. 3 of those games needed the Zapper, which is easily obtainable, and Gyromiteneeds R.O.B the Robot, which is not obtainable without a couple benjamins.

# of Games I didn't wantto review, but reviewed anyway:At least 13, but probably closer to 25.

# of Flight Simulator Games reviewed that didn't suck:0

# of Shmups reviewed:6

# of Shmups reviewed that were awesome:5 (sorry Galactic Crusader)

# of Golf games reviewed:only 3

# of Golf games I thoughtI'd be reviewing:at least 12 – enough to drown in.

Out of all the letters reviewed thus far:'G' might just be my favorite. Surprsingly, the letter grade I awarded the most was 'B,' and I attribute that to the high amount of shmups and just all-around solid games. Not to be outdone, I'd say The Great Waldo Searchis one of the least essential games for the NES library. Its worthlessness can't be overstated.

Until next time!
