Started this early in the summer and finished it a few days before school starts up again. Great, as I was expecting. Many moments made me chuckle and the game overall has a great atmosphere. The battles never got old, and in my 30+ hour playthrough I never got bored. I already own TTYD and that might be the most hyped game in my backlog.
1998
Been playing on and off for around a year and some parts are terrible and awful and make me want to throw and destroy parts of my living space, but the rest is perfect. The best platformer on the N64 by far. Tooie is expensive and I don't own an Xbox so I don't know when I'll be able to get to that one. Also the first game I've ever 100%ed.
1994
Easily one of the best RPG's I've ever played. It somehow balances a great battle system with hilarious dialogue and characters. The final boss might be my favorite of all time. James Rolfe called Giygas "intangible", and that's the perfect way to describe the final fight. My biggest issue is the fact that our main characters talk incredibly rarely. It attempts to push this romance between Ness and Paula, and it doesn't work. In spite of that, it's close to perfect in my eyes.
I hated this game for the longest time, but while the original still reigns supreme, this does bring more to the table. The game isn't ruined by the first person perspective like some say, it does make some parts WAY too easy though. The cutscenes are a little too Matrix-esque for my liking, and I recommend any first time players play the PS1 release, but they work. To a degree. It's fine, overall.

An unrelenting, adrenaline generating, masterpiece. My only issue is the bosses. They exist in this limbo area in which, why wouldn't really be that difficult without the horde of other demons that attack the player, but the horde of demons that attack the player is unimaginably annoying and will be the cause of all of the deaths. Apart from that, basically perfect.

Massively disappointing. Gameplay and puzzles are unbelievably stilted and botched. The story is confusing enough to seem smart, but each character is their own brand of stupid. I get more and more fed up as the game continued and every time I had to fight with the terrible combat system. Everything is too dark and too foggy. Everything just feels pedantic to a fault. I can see why people would like it, but it didn't hit the same way for me.
