There's a mistake in your Beavis and Butthead review.

"It's the SNES game where you are trying to get concerts to a GWAR concert."

Thanks, I'm working my way down the list and might be able to get to B&B tonight

That would be the one

Along with some other platformers that will be later in your list for sure but not as high as Id prefer haha
 

No more Acclaim/Ocean/THQ/Mindscape averages? I thought those were a really fun touch  

I haven't decided if they're coming back. If they do it might be a post at the end because they were getting pretty long. And my constant changes to the list as I work on it was making it annoying to keep them updated

At what point does the tone shift from meh to bad to pretty good?

Just curious. I sense its starting to go from bad to meh. Last list i felt we went from horrible to bad

Top 300 will be positive

300-400 are generally positive, but held back by any number of flaws.

Just wanted to tell you how much I've enjoyed reading these throughout this past year. It's quite an undertaking, and I appreciate the effort. Can't wait to see Volume V.

I was partway through reading this when I realized I already read it months ago. I was just hoping so much for the next volume that I'll read anything. Still reads good too. Keep up the good work.

Next one is very close. I know it's taken awhile, but 4 months per installment might be what is realistic

I thought I saw a new one and was waiting until the weekend to read it when I have time.  I'm glad to know you are working on them.  Take your time and don't get too stressed out.  We appreciate it.

Your unrivaled dedication is great, keep it up!

What did you find so bad about Bart's Nightmare that you couldn't finish it.  Yes it did suck you had to repeat some sequences, but it wasn't life sucking horrible either.  I finished it plenty of times back when it was a new game.  I went out and bought it myself as it looked good.  I remember the control being just a little odd in a few of the sequences but it never was a big problem like how badly the Simspsons games slid and jammed around badly on NES.  Conversely I found Carrier Aces confusing and utterly terrible to the point of being unplayable as the air combat is just beyond broken which is a shame as I loved the source material.  Also once or twice in they day I had R&S Veediots too, and finished it, and you're right it's just cruel.

If it was "life-sucking horrible" it would be at #699 instead of #599
