Going Under
2020
hey. so this game is pretty cool. its like a satire of trendy start-up culture or whatever and ngl its sometimes a lil cringe and wont age well but thats okay. i know roguelikes are poppin but thats a big ask upfront sometimes. i gotta put in alot of work before i even know if the game sucks or not lol. im a renaissance man, you gotta court the yalp. anyway i kinda like this “series of mini runs” approach cuz the investment to payoff ratio is a bit more consistent and thats just like….. better
speaking of better, going under is set up in a very non-egghead way. instead of crunching numbers, combat focuses on a more “chaos baller” style of engagement. things are exploding, youre grabbing chairs and keyboards, victory is determined by how much you can go wit the flow, think on your feet. most of the skills make more things explode, or give you command of the explosions, or make people date you. i thrive in chaos, i love to go hyatt (she makes that noise cuz its like zelda) and i too hate capitalism and love spongebob
anyway games pr sick
see you later gamer dweebz xoxo

Really fun game with good story, but the platforming dream sequences with slowed movement are some of the worst levels I have ever played in a game.
But the rest of the game is great, and has some of the best voice acting ever.

Opening showed me where capitalism is taking this country and I was too depressed to want to play more. I will give yelling/crying into a pillow and emotional eating 5 stars though.

This is based on the fact the Boy has played this on and off for six months now, just bombing down the tracks and mostly ignoring the races/rogue-like main game. He is having a blast.
Doom 3: BFG Edition

If you like shotguns that use banana peels and toenail clippings as ammo, this is the game for you.

If it wasn't for the technical issues (game completely broke after the tutorial forcing a new game, performance issues throughout) this game would be outstanding. Loved the game world, the movement, the voice acting is excellent and it was a genuinely emotional ending for me. So damn good on multiple fronts.
Super Mario Bros.

One time I played this game with warp zones to attempt a speedrun and I showed it to a Nintendo discord and they all got mad at me for "not playing the game right" so this game is actually terrible and anyone who likes it is a moron
Game of All Time
Took an edible and played this while zooted. 10/10 recommend
Still the best Mario Kart. No idea why they haven’t made a sequel in this style.
Played this version from the Disney Collection on the Switch. It follows all the same beats as the 16 bit console versions level by level just watered down to fit the handheld. For what it is and supposed to be, it works well enough. To be honest, it actually controls and plays better than the Genesis variation which has a ton of control bugs. It’s just hyper basic and watered down. Can be completed easily within a half hour’s time, just enough time for a car ride to your Aunt/Uncle’s house.

not too bad, been enjoying playing with my husband who isn't really into games, but he is enjoying it. the controls are easy enough, even if some of the boss fights are tricky.
