Here are the latest MobyGames entries as a result of this blog:
I don’t think I did Zen enough justice. Check out this much more thorough thrashing of the game.

The Games So Far
I was taking stock today of how much I have enjoyed the games thus far in this Gaming Pathology experiment. Out of all the games thus far, I can think of about 4 that have really stood out, that I have really enjoyed playing, and that I look forward to playing again when I get the time (these include Hot Wired, Clockwork Knight, Snow Day (really!), and Skateboard Park Tycoon). And the others? There haven’t been too many games that I have intensely disliked (I’m looking at you, Criticom) — I’m the type of person who can find a positive aspect about anything. I feel fairly ambivalent towards a number of the games — don’t love ’em, don’t hate ’em, but also don’t feel any desire to play them again at a future date.
So how many games have I played so far in this experiment? I have started keeping a static page in this blog that lists all the games played: Master Play List. Note that this page also shows up under the page list on the side bar. I will eventually spruce it up with some links, e.g., to the MobyGames entries when they become available.
GapKids Code Dialog
My curiosity was satisfied this evening when I booted back into Windows and found the mechanism by which Snow Day: The GapKids Quest alerts you that it’s about that time to pay another visit to your local GapKids clothing outlet:
I was presented with the preceding dialog on startup. I can’t believe it didn’t occur to me to search in Windows’ Startup folder where there is presently a program called GapSDR.exe invoked every time Windows starts.
New Saturn Entries
MobyGames has approved a number of my new Sega Saturn entries:
Tek Kids Are In
MobyGames has approved the entry for Tek-Kids Flash-Ops: Mission: Polar Challenge. I look forward to one day playing the remaining 3 games in the series.
Sick Day
Gaming Pathology is closed today on account of illness. On the plus side, MobyGames approved a new entry for Snow Day: The GapKids Quest.
