You outed yourself as a time traveler! :D It's coming out on October 15th, so a couple of months to go still.

Eric Adams, easily. Halford is iconic, but his strength (the falsetto screams) are done much better by other singers like Ripper, imo. His lower register has him often sound bored out of his mind. Not the biggest fan. I was never a big fan of Bruce during his air raid siren years. I adore his...

Me and MindRuler: :D

Welcome!

I really enjoyed Castlevania IV. Its atmosphere is brilliant, I adore the soundtrack, and there are some pretty neat effects for a SNES game. I don't mind that it is quite a bit easier than many other entries. That franchise is known for some pretty cheap and unfair sections here and there. I'm...

Hey, I don't understand myself half the time either :lol:

I'm listening to the songs right now and should post my votes either later today or at some point tomorrow.

It's also interesting to observe how Square kept pushing cinematic moments in their games as they went along. FF1 has its story and setting but it is relatively barebones, which makes sense given the time it was released. 2 introduced named characters and had a bit more emphasis on story. 3 was...

You ain't a soldier >:( :D

If you enjoyed the previous entries there's no reason not to play 7 and 8! 7 gets a ton of praise, and considering its historical significance it deserves quite a bit of it. It's obviously not a perfect game though and some aspects have not aged that well. The presentation is kinda funny...

Do we have any public information about that? So far I've only seen Nicko say positive things about Simon, as well as a bit of bantering.

V is my favourite from the 2D entries. If you enjoyed the job system in III, V has that on steroids. You can do some really fun things. Its best features are less the story or cinematic moments and more the gameplay systems. VI on the other hand is much more cinematic and if you've played OG VII...

I apologize for coming across as too confrontational and aggressive. In my mind there was an undercurrent of levity and bantering to that comment which apparently didn't translate in writing. My bad. I think it's a pretty big leap to make though. Steve and Bruce have always had a somewhat...

Let me get this straight. Are you saying that 34-year-old Steve in 1990, who listened to the solo album of his bandmate, on which the then new guitarist of Maiden and replacement for Adrian was playing, taking note of Bruce's vocal style and deciding to write for that in Maiden as well is the...
