5 Favorite Retro Vs Games is now on the official Burned Retinas page.

The site is still under redesign, pardon the awkwardness with access.

Sharks are pretty feisty, this team may be better than I expected.

Golden Knights, hmmm. They're gonna score points. But no Petro back there makes this defense completely different.

I learned that Zenless Zone Zero got rid of these style of exploration missions in later portions of the game.

Why? These are really fun!

Hustled to get this one finished before other responsibilities called. Let me know what you think (and please share!)

This week's review, I revisit Captain America and the Avengers for the Super Nintendo.

Vastly inferior to the Sega port, this SNES version ranks with me as one of the lamest brawlers on the platform.

What a start to the Panthers' season. Losing Rodrigues would be pretty crushing coming out of the gate.

That's a good point. The days of a goalie logging 60 starts are drawing to a close.
Elvis would run out of steam, so pontooning will probably behoove him

I'm surprised it's viewed as even as it is by the coaching staff. Quite fair, though I feel the leash has been more than generous the last two seasons.

I got Flins. Still have done absolutely nothing to level up Lauma and Aino, but it's progress. And I missed Ineffa.

Time to grind for more resources...

Gonna try and double up tomorrow, it's been a busy day. Taking care of prompt 3 "Murky". And I recently rewatched the Mystery Science Theater 3000 episode Boggy Creek II.

This video of Chicagoans intervening to save a man from being abducted off the streets by ICE is making the rounds on Instagram.

From what I saw, looks like a two-year deal. The perfect kind of bridge contract to let Bowman know that there's a statute of limitations on being serious about turning the Oilers into a legitimate winner

CONNOR MCDAVID IS STAYING WITH THE OILERS! 🔵🟠 Details to come.

Today's prompt was "Crown". Here's a quick sketch of a generic king. Fun enough.

That sounds like it should be illegal. Using any kind of petroleum or such would make a fire that much harder to stop
