On hold due to work.
Janky and repetitive collectable platformer with a strong opening and a weak end game. Excellent music and theming with enjoyable characters. Great dry humour. Forced the 100% and the final level/boss were a pain.
Great Mario platformer. The flower kingdom's enemy, items, and theming are fun to use and encounter. Great music and levels. No issues with the online but it does make the game easier (it can be disabled). End game levels weren't as difficult as 3D World/SMB3 but still fun.

Played Ken spamming sweep and throw to Gold. Had a blast. It's Street Fighter.

A cool little DOOM wad. Go in blind.
Easier to comprehend than the Sky House.

It's F-Zero with 99 racers, unlock-able colors, and cool team modes. Not a fan of the track voting and the special modes repeating the same courses.

It took too long for me to like this game. The first half is very boring if the atmosphere doesn't appeal to you.
Beyond that, very good combat and platforming mechanics and challenges with the ceiling reaching as high as you are willing to stretch. Exploration is open with little guidance but is very difficult to lose your footing. Most of the experience is fun for those willing to face the challenge. Except Godwoken which is a trial in tedium. A bittersweet experience that I love and am glad that it ended.
Silksong when.

Back for Season 14. Want to hit Emerald IV because it looks cool. Playing top lane. Stormsurge sucks

cat fr; was gifted game before I could buy it. I had very simple fun
Final Edit: Can recommend. Fun game but drags on in the last third. Controller support is extremely inconsistent and quest/key item bugs are still frequent. Expect to reload often.
Edit: The game has been patched fixing most of these issues. The game itself is very enjoyable so I will be changing my review accordingly. I'll return once I've completed the game.
Noticably buggy. had UI softlock, HUD disappear, combat lock-on issues, enemies attacking after dying, quest progress improperly, enemies despawn, etc.
m&kb controls are clunky (especially UI) and I've had issues with controller support consistency
gamplay and story so far is solid but this game needs cleanup bad

After watching an Oregon bearded hipster living in Texas making a video on this game I've been hooked.
A highlight real of all the top arcade machines and games that you can think of along with a variety of prizes and attractions to boot. This is a passion project with as much love as skill and I can't say enough good things about this game. Survival mode may feel flat due to its repetition, but I can always play birthday mode and go wild. A must buy if you want an authentic arcade experience at home with the benefit of winning most games.

This a great game and if you're looking for cyberpunk adventure games I'd put this on your wishlist.
A 2D adventure RPG game centered around hacking the cyberspace to evade capture by an "evil" corporation. You can go guns blazing, fist to fist, or full stealth mode depending on your augments and which path you take. The maps are surprisingly open with lots of pathways to follow for solving problems. The writing is well done and although the plot is simple its executed well. Art is a subjective topic but I can say its very consistent and well done.
My only gripe is combat can be brute forced very easily. If you've played Deus Ex, Dishondered, Akrham Knight, etc. you know what I mean. If not, at a certain point of upgrades you become God and encounters are one-sided even as enemies improve. Its consistent with the narrative but if you're expecting scaling like in Thief or Prey (2016) you may be disappointed.

Good soundtrack and some of the uses of the hole are quite creative.
Extremely short-live, linear, and the uses of the hole aren't varied. I would not recommend if you are expecting something similar to a Katamari game.

Either I die in the first 5 minutes or I play a three hour atari game and it crashes
great game don't buy.

This is a good re-imagining that replicates the original but does NOT replace it. I enjoyed the game and was able to 100% ingame with little trouble but it was not an improved experience.
There are a lot of issues regarding your hp, the redone combat, camera, missing sound effects, and more that all result in a game that plays differently from the original and not in a good way. If you haven't played the original and want to purchase a copy to play, I recommend buying the original if you have a console. if you enjoyed the original, you will enjoy this one but feel like something is missing.
The horde mode multiplayer is dog, buy for the singleplayer.
