These are old sections of FlyingOmelette.com, some of which are no longer updated, but are kept here in an archive. You can browse them at your leisure, but be aware that I may not accept submissions for some of them since they aren't being updated anymore.
SECTIONS ARE IN ALPHABETICAL ORDER!!
(Sorry, if I don't say that, I'll get people complaining that they can't find anything.)
Caption Contest
The FlyingOmelette.com Caption Contest that I started on the forums just because a lot of other websites have done their own. It wasn't all that game-related. It was also open to email submissions. Some of them are funnier than others, but I think the best ones are really good. (Why are Menudo jokes always so funny?)
Cartoon Corner
Episode reviews and other random stuff related to animated cartoons I've watched and enjoyed over the years, such as Transformers, Urusei Yatsura 2, and Real Ghostbusters. This is also where you can find my Transformers Animation page.
Game Ideas Archive
These are a collection of game ideas that I archived from the forums. I basically commandeered my page and Crawl's page from the Deathamster's Nest site so that I could keep them updated, and I archived the game ideas from my forums that were never posted to that site. Some of these game ideas are meant to be plausible, but most are just intentional silliness.
Game of the Month Archive
This was my attempt to get myself to write a little about games every month because I'd often go a really long time between writing actual reviews. It was also a means of giving a little extra attention to games that I felt deserved it, especially if they were obscure or unpopular. I retired Game of the Month in April of 2005 because I just couldn't motivate myself to write it anymore, and I was often getting two or three weeks into the month before I'd post one anyway.
Google & YouTube Videos
This is where I will post links to all of the Google and YouTube vidoes that I have made and uploaded.
Kitchen Sink
Collection of random pictures and stuff that I couldn't really find a use for in any other site section. Includes videogame stuff, random old message board crap, and funny screen captures.
Poetry Preserve
A collection of short songs and poems that I've written over the years. Sometimes I write them to the tunes of videogame music, but not all of them are. Many of them are really old and dumb, written when I was very young and not very knowledgeable on how to write well. I think some of the newer ones are better, though, like "Weaving Two Paths into One", "Departure", and "Last Sunset".
Rec Room
The Rec Room was a section meant to shine a spotlight on some of my favorite games. Unfortunately, I have been unable to find time to keep it regularly updated. Right now it currently only spotlights two games (ActRaiser and Star Fox), but has lots of pretty pictures and music downloads for them.
Top 25 Most Overrated Games I've Played
You know, after the incidents with both my Top 50 Favorite Game Ending Songs and Top 100 Favorite Games lists getting mistaken for "best of all times" lists, that the same thing didn't happen with this one yet. I probably shouldn't speak too soon...
Top 100 Favorite Games
My top 100 personal favorite games. This list is outdated and until I have the time and motivation to update it to my current standards, I'm relegating it to the museum.
Video Game Cameos & References Database
This was my attempt to document all the little cameos and references in various games I've played. I asked for help from readers to send in the submissions from the games they've played, and the database was a huge success. Unfortunately, it turned out to be a bit too successful for its own good as I eventually became unable to keep up with it. The Cameos Database has been one of the most controversial sections of my site, as sometimes information was submitted that turned out to be false, but on the whole, I think we did a really good job with being thorough and accurate, and we have a good deal of information here that had never been documented anywhere else before. As a result, I learned a lot of things about many games that I never knew. Despite the troubles it sometimes caused me, I had a great time running this section of the site and may it now rest in peace.
Year in Review
A reflection on the changes and events of FlyingOmelette.com in 2007. Only time will tell if I continue this trend next year.
