Yeah, I know, it’s like 10 P.M. and I’m finally posting this. I spent the whole day coding for a new project (more on that when it’s ready to be announced) and as always I let time run away with me. For your holiday joy I present a now somewhat famous scene from King of …

Today, June 23rd 2021, marks 30 years since the release of Sonic The Hedgehog on the Sega Genesis (Mega Drive for the rest of the world.)

Let’s Get Back On Track
I’ve been neglecting this site for far too long. I know, I know, I’ve written probably a dozen entries this past year on just this subject, but it’s really starting to get to me that I go nearly a month between posts now, when I used to do near daily entries about something which caught …

Moving swiftly along to the June games with Gold lineup we actually have a post which is on time and not halfway through the month? Amazing! You know what else is amazing? Not this game lineup! Okay, no, I’d never call a GWG lineup “amazing” and if I have in the past please let me …

Don’t Call Me Negative When You Ignore Things Like This
Yesterday was May 4th. Star Wars day to many. While I consider myself certainly a fan of the franchise, I honestly find May 4th a bit annoying. The date doesn’t actually have anything to do with Star Wars or George Lucas — it’s not the latters’ birthday or the release date of any film in …

The Greatest Test Flight – STS-1
Today marked the 40th anniversary of the launch of Columbia on the first mission of the Space Shuttle Program, STS-1. It’s a little hard for me to think that it was that along ago, or that the program would go on for just over 30 years, ending in July of 2011 after 135 missions. Of …

Distance
As is obvious to anyone visiting this site I’ve been quite distant from it, and quite a bit of social media, over the past few months. This has been a way for me to clear my mind, or at least, an attempt to. I’ve been focusing heavily on other projects and shying away from the …

I Grow Tired Of This Bullshit From Full Grown Adults
While I was at work today the phone rang, as it regularly does. After all, I work in a video game sales and repair store — people are always calling wondering what we have, how much a service costs, or just wanting some advice on something. It’s a fun job, for the most part, and …

14 Years Of Xadara
5,113 days ago I decided that I should register a domain name and select a hosting provider for a website to host what was, at the time, nothing more than a collection of music game related files and some discussion forums. That site was the very one you’re on, www.xadara.com, and in that time things …

Angry Video Game Nerd Episode 134: Hong Kong 97 – Episode Review
It’s been a while since we looked at an AVGN episode, so why not jump back into the craziness with the next episode, Hong Kong 97?! This is one of those fan request type episodes, but a good one given Hong Kong 97 was, at the time at least, one of the more mysterious games …

Ha! I’m not going to be late for this months Games with Gold overview! Oh no, this one’s coming out on the first, and it looks like another interesting enough month of games that I’ll likely consider playing but never get around to enjoying, because I never play anything anymore yet I still insist on …

What’s Coming For March 2021 On Xadara
Well, February was a complete wash as well. 2 whole articles in the past 28 days. That’s it. 2. I couldn’t be bothered to write a damn thing for the site, not even getting to the “Games with Gold” article on time! Much the same as January, I’ve been busy with some other projects combined …
