So I landed my first voice over role. What that is? I'm not exactly sure. All I know it's some video a girl is making about a character she plays in a circus freak show (she walks on broken glass and eats fire) and, after auditioning, I have been given the role of the narrator. I don't know how many other people auditioned, but it feels pretty awesome to land the role. Could this be the start of something more? I guess only time will tell.



DONKEY KONG COUNTRY 2 - SNES - 1995

Is DKC2 my favorite classic game ever? Probably not but, like I said in several other posts, picking just one game for a lot of these categories is near impossible. But with the recent release of Donkey Kong Country Returns I've had DKC on the mind and in particular I've been reminiscing about Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest. DKC2 is, hands down, the pinnacle of the Donkey Kong Country series. It took everything that made the original DKC great and made it better. The level design was great, the graphics still look incredible, and it has one of the greatest game soundtracks of all time. My brother and I would sit around playing this gem for hours (I would be Diddy and he would be Dixie) as we worked together to clear the levels, smash the enemies, and take down Captain K. Rool. While some my feel the original DKC hasn't exactly aged well, DKC2 has stood the test of time and remains one of the greatest platformers ever made. It's a shame it was followed by the lackluster DKC3 and DK64 but from what I've seen Donkey Kong Country Returns is the sequel DKC2 deserved.
