The source of my childhood anxiety. A fun game with excellent dungeons, but the time mechanic is one of the most un-fun mechanics in gaming history for me.

Quantum dream delivers again. What a gripping story, with excellently done dialogue, voice acting and motion capture. Gameplay is a bit bland, but a great sense of choice and freedom. Over a billion endings.

One of my favorite 6/10 games. Some great ideas but the titular Sonic story, terrible voice acting, repetitive music and more. No chao garden?

I can still remember booting this up for the first time. Playing coop legendary campaign in my childhood home with my best friend. Jumping through the hoops to unlock the Hyabusa armor. Sniping a guy from the back of a mongoose in multiplayer and replaying it in the theater mode 1,000 times.

What’s not to love. It’s Mario 64/Sunshine but in space.

Perfect 10/10 experience. It’s got Mario, it’s got wahoo’s, it’s got hats, it’s got Toshiba, it’s got mama Mia’s.

Perfect soundtrack, graphics and level design makes this one of my favorite Mario’s.

Absolutely the best MMO on the market. Characters, story and game are all remarkable. Heavensward, stormblood, shadowbringers and endwalker expansions all take you on a remarkable adventure 10+ years in the making.

Textures are a step above PlayStation 2 textures.

The most crowdfunded game in history. In development for over 10+ years. Broken promises.

And yet. There’s something amazing here. Incredible sound design, physics, universal traversal with zero loading screens, incredible graphics, faces and flight model. The best space sim on the market, and one of my favorite games to keep an eye on.

What a ride. One of my favorite FPS campaigns of all time.

Best 2D Metroid since Metroid fusion.

Great game, excellent abilities, predictable yet entertaining story. Loved every second swinging around NYC with the swagger of a teenage black kid. His personality and how it shows through to his movement was top notch.

Incredible Zelda game. The first open world Zelda. Great abilities, art, music, gameplay, enemies and loot. The shrines mix up gameplay and introduce many great ideas.

Giving this 4.5 stars because of the weapon durability and uninteresting “dungeons”, the divine beasts.

One of the few resident evils I’ve finished front to back. Excellent horror setting, genuinely creepy and mysterious village. Bosses are excellent and the puzzle solving was entertaining.

2016

Best music in any game ever. Gameplay, gore and guns are all 11/10.

One of my most nostalgic games. I remember every Star, every boss, every wah-hah-wahoo.
