This must be how normies feel about Weird Al every time he releases a new album. Everytime he does, I see headlimes like “Weird Al is back!” like it’s some kind of nostolgia tour.

Meanwhile I’m like “Uhhhhh…he never left. He can’t release an album every month…”. But if Green Day release a new album every 6 years, the headline is always “Green Days new album shows they still got it.”

Even though I think Weird Al has TONS more range than most bands that have been around 30+ years. Unironically, Weird Al may be one of the greatest musicians ever, but always gets treated like he’s been dormant since the 80s.

And I guess thats how I viewed the Carmen Sandiago series. I haven’t heard a peep out of them since the mid 90s when they had that late afternoon game show where players use clues to figure out where in the world, and later where in time, is Carmen Sandiago. But I guess I’m wrong. 22 games in 40 years is more than most series. Thats like Mario levels of game releases if you ignore the side projects.
