After a long break I have returned with my Journey (the arcade game) review. It was just one of those games I had to review.

I remember it sitting near the doorway to the arcade in the old Mission Viejo Mall. So many good arcade games were there.

I hope my long-time fan reputation does not show through. Though they were clearly corporate rock, Journey is/was/has been a guilty musical pleasure. Since Steve Perry left it has been nothing. I don't care what they say about au jerie, he doesn't have the range, control, or drama that Perry had.

Just because this review has been posted prior to my others does not mean I am not working on them. I am anxious to get my Drakan:Order of the Flame review finalized and posted. The sheer volume of demands are daunting. Then again, I need the writing practice, and analytical exercise that comes with writing a review.

One of these days I hope to do more. . . in a professional, not just cathartic capacity.
