Half-Life has been on my agenda to beat for quite a while now, and I'm happy that I finally got around to beating Black Mesa. I could never beat the original but this is the definitive way to play the game. Really enjoyable experience throughout, but Xen is pretty crap once you hit the conveyer belts and the final boss was just okay. Loved the atmosphere though and now I can get around to Half-Life Alyx.

Shelving this for now, I really like it but I'm getting annoyed with some of the maps and how open they are. I prefer Doom 1's tight level design in terms of old boomer shooters but I can still appreciate this game is good even if it has a ton of bullshit.

You will see me launch this 20 times and you are gonna like it

Was this game worth the wait? Absolutely.
Is this game the masterpiece many will claim it is? No.

Rebirth is much improved on Remake in so many areas, the combat is quite a bit better, the music is great as usual, visually even in the “performance” mode this game looks amazing besides some textures along the lines of “the door” from Remake.

But,
And a HUGE but:
The story outside of what was in the original fucking STINKS. None of it makes sense in the slightest and I’m not sure even Max Dood is going to be able to make sense of this one. The only positive to this is that we got a Yakuza 5-tier final boss sequence at the end (in both gameplay and story).

I’m probably also just mad that Vincent is here for a decent chunk and is not even used how Red XIII was in Remake. For what it’s worth I did like what they did with Cid to make up for him not being playable.

Still, a great game that was fun and extremely good for the majority besides certain story sections, and I hope now we get a Vincent game in the vein of Intermission to tide us over til the next game.

There’s no way they don’t call that one Final Fantasy VII Reunion, right?

Only just found out this game had an "Extra Game" mode, and that it is evil.

Decent game

People out there have beaten this game and I am genuinely astounded as to how, this shit is impossible

I'll give it props for inspiring Ys and Legend of Zelda but this is so shit to play

Didn't really need to play for long to get the gist of this. Not much to it, brainless automation game that is probably better played on a browser than buying it.

One of the most influential RPG's ever made. You can see how unique and charming the enemy designs are here even in an NES game. Enjoyable but you probably will need a guide, and the grind can get tedious. Back in the day this would've been mindblowing to play but with speedup and guides, the game is honestly not that long and only serves as a piece of history to experience.

This game is great apart from when I mistime one move and get carried to the wall for 80% of my health

Randomly decided to get the rest of the achievements

Please play this game

Saw what was in the club and decided to call it a day

Was going for all the achievements but accidentally activated the all emblems code in the SADX Mod Installer

SA1 is fairly nostalgic for me even though I played it a bit later in my life than other Dreamcast/PS2/Gamecube era titles. Sadly due to this after revisiting this game there are some issues I've seen, but apart from Big and Amy's stories as a whole, I don't really care. Even Knuckles is more fun to play as here than SA2. I was honestly surprised by the extra content you get after beating all the stories as I had never played through that on my previous playthrough.

Definitely a bit janky in places, and now in my mind harder to rank above SA2, but there is something about this game that makes it so special and unique to the point where I recommend it even to people who claim they don't like Sonic games.
