Just a heads-up: Mark posted recently on Patreon that, while researching for a new book (Tome of Infinity), he digged into his collection and made some reviews that he's uploading to the CGR website. Keep in mind they are not part of the CGR 2085 show and are just quick reviews similar to the last Youtube ones. They are available over here.The games are: - GRADIUS III review for Super Nintendo - ZONE RANGER review for Atari 5200 - ASTRO BATTLE review for Bally Astrocade - SKY TARGET review for Sega Saturn - Phoenix for Atari 2600 review |

It was great to watch these. I wonder why he made videos this year. Perhaps he wants to do a mass upload on his old You Tube page once he has a bunch done? I can't tell if this was uploaded using Daily Motion or not. It is really odd though, because no one really knows that these exist. |

I love Gradius III, it is one of my personal top 100 games, and one of the first two shmups I ever owned and finished, alongside Imperium also on the Super Nintendo. People didn't like the port, but as a kid it was still perfection to me. I had been waiting for years for this review, probably since I started watching the show back in 2009. Thanks for the share.
It is not working on my phone, but I'll try watching them on PC when I come back home. I'm going to watch Ozzy No More Tours 2 tonight at the Hollywood Bowl, and even if it is a Monday I still expect a lot of people will also show up for it. I love Ozzy, and you never know when is his last tour for real.

I thought he cancelled a lot of dates because of an injury? Hopefully not tonight. I'm really excited for it. I already have the tickets, but if something happens, thanks for the heads up, at least I will now be more prepared psychologically. |

Man, since you told me I went to check. Thank you so much. You just saved me time, gas, and parking. They postponed it until March 21th 2019. I don't know if they will give me the money back, or if I can still use the same tickets next year. I was so excited now that Zakk is back with him. What a bummer. |

I love those songs: - Shot In The Dark - Mr. Crowley - Road To Nowhere I was also hoping to hear tonight in no particular order: - No More Tears - Mama, I'm Coming Home - Dreamer - Crazy Babies - Bark At The Moon - Breakin' All The Rules - Crazy Train - I Just Want You - Back On Earth - Gets Me Through - See You On The Other Side - Perry Mason And hopefully: - N.I.B. - War Pigs - Iron Man - Paranoid Now I have to wait like 6 months. I was so excited already. |

The four scrapped shows were originally scheduled as follows: Shoreline Amphitheatre in Mountain View, California (October 6), Mattress Firm Amphitheatre in Chula Vista (October 9), the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles (October 11) and MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas (October 13). The three California shows had previously been rescheduled following his initial prognosis from doctors. All four shows have now been rescheduled for July 2019. The new dates are: July 20 - Las Vegas, NV - MGM Grand Garden Arena July 23 - Chula Vista, CA - Mattress Firm Amphitheatre July 27 - Mountain View, CA - Shoreline Amphitheatre July 29 - Los Angeles, CA - Hollywood Bowl Ticketholders for the four shows should hold on to their tickets, as they will be honored for the rescheduled dates. Refunds are also available at point of purchase. Thanks for the heads up. I'm happy he says he is going to honor them. It sucks that I now have to wait until almost August. They were saying March, August is way ahead. I hope nothing happens along the way that they have to cancel it altogether. |
