Silent Hill is a game brought to us by Konami in their golden age. The game sees protagonist Harry Mason, and his young daughter Cheryl heading into a wooded resort town for vacation when they get into a car wreck. Harry wakes up to discover Cheryl is gone and is thrust into the mysterious town of Silent Hill where he must find not only his daughter but also the secrets of this isolated town. The game is a survival horror classic where ammo can be sparse, and tank controls and fixed camera angles are the name of the game. This game takes a while to get used to in terms of controls from a modern perspective but once you do it should get easier as you go on. The game has you exploring the misty and dark streets of Silent Hill solving puzzles, reading memos, and fighting for your life as you look for your daughter. There isn't much to say without spoiling the game but I highly recommend this game to anyone who is a fan of horror games and a great mystery.

Klonoa Phantasy Reverie Series is a remastered collection including Klonoa 1 and 2 and so I will briefly talk about both.

Klonoa 1 sees us take the shoes of the titular Klonoa who one day is suddenly tied into a a plot to take over the world by the evil Ghadius, and Joka by taking control of the Moon Kingdom. The game is a pretty standard run of the mill side scroller of it's era but with an coat of extra cute paint, and lovable character designs. There is also the unique mechanic of grabbing enemies with the wind ring and using them as either projectiles or for extra air time and distance on jumps. Don't let the game's childish appearance fool you as there is plenty of challenging platforming challenges, where you have to think quickly on your toes.

Klonoa 2 is more of the same but we see Klonoa with a sleak new design. After the events of Klonoa 1 Klonoa wakes up falling in the ocean where he is saved by two new companions who request his help to save the world from an impending dimensional merge. The game functions essentially the exact same as the first game but this time with more dynamic camera angles and difficult platforming challenges. There is also more level variety with surf boarding levels which provide their own unique challenges.

Overall Klonoa is a fun and enjoyable series of platformers, that are masterfully remastered for this current generation. If you love early PS1 and PS2 platformers and somehow missed this series now is the perfect time to give them a try!

Saints Row Gat Out of Hell is an expansion of Saints Row IV, and it does not let up on the absurdity as the Boss is kidnapped by the Devil himself to be married to his daughter Jezebel, so now Johnny Gat with the assistance of Kinzie, and Dane (from Saints Row 2) work together to defeat Satan, and bring the boss back home. The game is a really short expansion for SRIV but that doesn't mean it's not a quality game. GooH features an all new map along with a whole new set of weapons, the devs seemed to realize that cars were pointless with the inclusion of powers, so they removed all ability to customize cars, or keep them which honestly is fine as the main mode of transportation is using Satan's wings to fly around the city of Hell which is a ton of fun, especially when you upgrade some of your powers. As a short expansion for IV there could be a way worse game but fortunately if you enjoyed IV you will also really enjoy Gat Out of Hell.
