I've made it a personal rule of mine to not trust anyone who dislikes this game

This review contains spoilers

I would've simply made a giant dome that can filter out ultraviolet rays

Makoto Kagutsuchi is a dumbass

In a way, I feel X8 represents the X series really well; it has some pretty abysmal lows but also some astronomical highs and that's really what this series is all about

And by that I mean that this game is peak as hell and nobody understands it but me

Why yes, I do believe André Segers would slurp up his employee's intestine like spaghetti if they didn't bring him something to drink

Kirby after Dedede steals all the food in Dream Land but he takes it with good humor: "Got a good chuckle out of that one. I'm coming after you."

Having already played the original DS version several times before this, I'm happy to report that this remaster more than lives up to it

While not all the arranged tracks quite live up to the originals and I kinda wish they had made the game widescreen instead of just sticking customizable bars on the sides, everything else works phenomenally and looks smooth as butter to boot, and since you can swap the arranged OST with the originals whenever you want, there's really nothing stopping this from being the definitive version of the game

As for the game itself, it's still just as amazing as I remember, one of the most unique and creative gameplay loops for a visual novel-type adventure game coupled with an emotional story tying together the fates of several different individuals, full of insane twists that make me wish I could experience this game blind again

I completely forgot how hard "a dead man reaching his hand out for a cat" could hit me (I teared up)

Game so good when you ain't got a bitch in your ear telling you it's unfairly difficult

Mf really needed that paycheck

Yakuza 2 fans when the game doesn't require them to go find some random cat in an alleyway to get a really useful ability

This game dares to ask the question "what if a survival-horror game allowed you to do a bunch of raw as hell shit"

Gonna force (heh) Infinite on a copium IV drip so this game will never happen

Tetsuya Takahashi kept cooking so much with this one he forgot to stop

And you know what
I respect the hustle

Ten years in the joint must be hard on a man, hopefully they won't make him into a very big weakling!

It's a pretty blatant rip-off of the Dreamcast/N64/PC version of Donald Duck: Quack Attack (goat) but it's enjoyable I suppose

This is the game people should really talk about when they say Sonic Colors "ruined" the series
