Well, I managed to get this one assembled before the end of November, so that's cool. At 24 minutes, this is the biggest GBW video by far.

Oh, wait, no... this is Anatomy of Super Castlevania IV: Theme of Simon, not Anatomy of Simon. I guess that would have been a very different piece of writing.

This game is cool! I am really terrible at it! Anyway, it's a nice change of pace from the endless procession of puzzlers. And how great is that cover? (So great.)

Sigma's Popeye is not very good, and kind of makes me want to punch the sailor man right in the face. Anyway, here's the script—I should have the episode up this weekend.
