This game has been a phantom to me for my entire life. Never once have I understood what in the FUCK I was supposed to do
Almost infuriatingly good. Honestly just makes so many other excellent games look bad. If the others are cartoon shows, this is like the masterpiece movie.
2009
Way WAAAAY too many mechanics for a portable game with an emphasis on story and characters. Requires an absurd amount of dedication and personal time investment for very little to no return. Would in fact be easier to pilot an actual starfleet. Also the main character wants to fuck his sister.
1990
Perfection
2022
A really tightly made and concise 3D puzzle platformer. More about exploring and unraveling than testing your skills. Enjoyed every second of it
Cenobite Game
Was gonna give it 3 stars, but fuck it. I had a good time!
1985
Post-War Cartoon game
1985
The Longest Video Game
The current pinnacle of storytelling in video games as a medium. If you are writing a game with an "interesting" story, play this and pour over it and then throw your trash away and start over. An ode to everything beautiful and fun about B-tier media and the best possible way to end the PS4 generation
1988
Like a really good show you remember from the 80's that felt a lot better than Transformers or He-Man and then you find out later it was actually a show from Japan called Macross
2002
Probably the game i have replayed the most. Excellent game, flawed only by being a followup to a perfect ending. I do not care even one bit about it being "too linear" as imo i just play the games one single way every single time so it doesn't matter to me
2001
Absolute Best Game to star English Philosopher Roger Bacon as Yoda from Star Wars, besides of course Koudelka
And Shadow Hearts 2
And Shadow Hearts 2
1986
Old and musty as fuck but still worth playing. Spend a weekend poking your way through it and you will be hypnotically engaged, despite the general NES Nonsense of it. Still has my favorite ending theme of any Metroid game
1994
All time classic with THE best final act of any video game I have ever played. A culmination of 3 games worth of story only silent spoken and it beats everything from Final Fantasy 6 all the way to The Witcher 3 in terms of impact. Still the best Metroidvania game, proving RPG mechanics are a (fun!) crutch to this core style of game
