Thanks.
Axelay review uploading now to make up for that one people couldn't hear. The video quality will also be poor since I can't seem to get decent recording from an emulator on this computer (as I said, wanting to improve the abysmal video quality).
I also continued in the Axelay video. Amateur review.

Watched one review out of boredom. Now I've spent most of the night watching the rest. You have another fan, Rob.

You'll have to explain that one because Icycalm is a gaming writer I can believe in.

I prefer R-Type III or UN Squadron/Area 88. Biometal is still better than Axelay. Phalanx isn't bad either.
SNES... console of horis.

actually, i take that back. watched a few more of his vids (he must have like 10+ with "xbox" and "sucks" in the title
), and he is quite class. his nerd impression in the samuel vid was gold.

I started laughing, then read it out loud in an announcerly/you-get-it-whatever type voice starting with the second half and then went to the first half. I should go sweepy-tiem.
