Mario’s first adventure on the Switch is a masterpiece. Every world is packed with things to do. Some worlds are obviously better than others but even the worse kingdoms are visually stunning. The bosses, soundtrack, and gameplay have also brought their A game. Mario controls the best he ever has and Cappy adds so much to the movement. The game gets VERY creative with enemies Cappy can capture and possess, from Mario staples like the Goomba to outright bizarre things like a photorealistic T-Rex. This game is filled with creativity and soul the entire way through, and is for sure one of the best games the whole Mario franchise has given us.

After beating MGS1 I was glad to be done with something that's been on the to do list for AGES, but didn't think much of it.
After beating MGS2 I just kinda went "yeah thats one of the videogames I've played, it was good" and didn't think much of it.
After beating MGS3 was when I really felt this was one of the best video games ever made.
Each boss outdid the last, the game's theme "Snake Eater" is legendary and the times it gets used in game are thrilling. I had an audience for this game, they'd all tell you I am really, REALLY bad at MGS games, but fighting the Shagohod with people screaming at me to quick change to even mundane things like ringing the alarm at the lab to cause problems on purpose made the experience even better.
This game's hard to get nowadays, if it ever gets rereleased again I think even more people would hail it as one of the best video games released, and I absolutely recommend it if you can.

Recently the opinion that there's only three good Sonic games has become more commonplace, resulting in once highly regarded titles like Adventure 2 being bashed without regret. There's some really jank levels (Sonic's final rails level and every part of the game you play as Knuckles/Rouge) that really sour the experience, but at the end of the day the charm and soul of a masterful video game are here, and when it's good it's VERY good. I'd say it's ultimately worth a shot, at least.
I am quite biased towards Joker since his inclusion in Smash is what led me to play Persona, and he's probably still my favorite DLC because of that. Too bad Our Beginning made it in over countless better songs including Burn My Dread, The Almighty, and Life Will Change, one of the signature songs of Persona 5. Even the final boss's actual theme would've been better. It's the most mediocre final boss theme of all time but at least it LOOPS PROPERLY. I am still seething three years later.

This is the fourth game in the Resident Evil franchise and the first game in the Devil May Cry franchise. This game really does show it's the first with it's primitive combat. For new people coming into the series because they heard the franchise is cool or want to know where the characters people speculate will be in Smash Bros. come from, I recommend Devil May Cry 3 over it, as DMC3's gameplay is much cleaner and holds up well even today. A certain reveal in this game actually ends up making much more sense with DMC3 context, as 3 is a prequel that happens before the rest of the franchise. Despite this, DMC1 is still a decent entry in the franchise and still worth checking out if you enjoyed later entries in the franchise.
