You ask true fans of this game what they think of it, and they basically just drop the ground and have a seizure trying to explain themselves.
I wish I'd connected with it in the same way. I found it fun, but I don't think I mined the depths of its bizarre storytelling capabilities, or its willingness to philosophize with my dumb ass.
I'd like to say I'll go back to it some day, but I probably won't. I consider it a missed opportunity, though, and not a bad game.

Some of the most innovative, hilarious, and most technologically profound cinematics of all time, at the time of its release. Its narrative had me by the balls.
Unfortunately, the gameplay was equally absurd, in how frustrating it felt. Sometimes, FPS games just don't have that weight. It doesn't feel like you're hitting what you're shooting at. And as this game went deeper, it also became more shallow.

Oh my GOD what a game. Who in their right mind allowed Cory Barlog to follow through with this vision of the whole game being a ONER? Intense, fast and frenetic gameplay. Satisfying puzzle design and dungeon exploration reminiscent of the best days of Zelda. And a one-of-a-kind narrative with an immense amount of gravity. Loved it - but the map and the compass suck, and the post-game content is frustrating.

I've never been one for strategy games, but I'd heard so many good things.. I booted it up, threw on permadeath, and somehow made it all the way through on my first try. I uninstalled it and never looked at it again. I got away with murder, and I had a LOT of fun.

Man, ARGH. There is so much promise here. The moment-to-moment gameplay, the level design, and the boss fights are all so .. BIG. It's a ton of fun, really. But the loot system and the skills were so tedious that it took me all the way out of it. I heard the sequel didn't fix this, either, which is astonishing. Come on, now. I shouldn't have to spend half of my time with a game sifting through the garbage I just picked up and boldly attempting to decipher whether the red trousers are better than the blue ones. Simplify it, guys.

Oh my God. They did it. I.. I AM Spider-Man.
They could've handled the Peter Parker / Mary Jane plot a little better, but who cares. This game gets a perfect score from me because it made my childhood dreams come true.

A wonderful time, if you've got a companion. Unfortunately, however, it was released on the Wii U.
THE most immersive experience I'm ever liable to have in this lifetime. People complain about the combat, and the general speed of things. I found it to be pitch perfect. I let the game take the lead, and I simply followed along. What a grand, heartbreaking tale.
The only thing I might deduct points for is that it took me an entire weekend to find a goddamn Jaguar. Or something like that.

Really difficult strategy game. Kaiju Chess. I recall getting absolutely smashed, day in day out, and then one day it clicked. I dunno how it clicked, but I started winning, and then I was having fun.
It's Smash. You know the drill. The only real negative here is that it's not Melee.

I used to be a massive fan of JRPGs. The longer, the more challenging, the more grinding required, the BETTER!
.. I don't know what happened. Either I got old, my brain stopped functioning, my patience began to dwindle, or some ungodly combination of the three. But I can't really handle experiences like this anymore.
I was enjoying the narrative, and the unique turn-based systems on display, for the first 10 hours or so. But once I entered the second "Act", or whatever they call it, and realized I would have to grind like crazy to stand up to the enemies in the next area, I dropped it like a hot brick.

This is a REALLY good party game, and my SO loved it. My main gripe is that there are only 4 boards, and only a handful of good minigames. Typical Nintendo BS, delivering the bare minimum and charging full price.

Didn't quite hit the highs that Mario Galaxy did, for me. But I mean, yeah, you know wuddiddissssss

Have you ever wondered what it would be like to be The Terminator, to wake up inside of the Matrix, to be force-fed a jarful of acid, and then to transmogrify into a beetle made of liquid titanium and bright light? Put on headphones and turn off the lights and get ready to unwittingly s*& your pants.
