About the Site/FAQ

Essentially, I like games.  Classic, retro, whatever you want to call it.  So I'm going to replay all the games I can, and as I go, rank them to see who the best really is.  Off the top of my head, I can remember a few games that just blew my mind.  Have they stood the test of time?  Or maybe I was just a lame kid.  I won't know until I replay them.  This will be constantly updated, so always check back in.

I will not rank a game until I replay it.

So if you see my number three game is Duck Tales and I haven't even listed Mario 3, don't flip out.  I probably haven't replayed Mario 3 yet, so it isn't ranked.

This is not scientific.

If I have fun with a game for no apparent reason, I'm going to rank it high.  If there is a really well made game that make me want to sit on a cactus I'm not going to rank as high.  Check out my reviews though, I'll explain my rankings there.

FAQ

Q:  What order do you play games to rank games in?

A:  Random, mainly.


Q:  Can I request you to rank a game?

A:  Yes, email me at juice.box@gmx.com


Q:  Can I complain about a ranking?

A:  Yes, email me at juice.box@gmx.com, but I'd prefer you to challenge my ranking instead of complaining.

Q:  What do you mean challenge?

A:  Example:  Right now I have Bubble Bobble ranked below Snow Bros.  You could choose to email me in two ways:  "Snow Bros sucks!"  to which I would say "No.  I like Snow Bros."  Or you can say "I like Bubble Bobble better than Snow Bros, I think you should re-rank them."  At that time I may go back and replay both games back to back and see if maybe I did screw up.

Q:  What is the Abadox Quagmire?

A:  An immediate death sentence for a game.  As described in the review for Abadox, it is the thing that irritates me most about games.
Essentially, it is when a game fails to give you any checkpoint, or regeneration when you die, and you die after one hit.  It is a game that tries to make itself more difficult by making it easy to die, and making you start the entire level over again once you do.
