2012
gonna be honest i think it's a bit too hard for me, but it's still very enjoyable and i really love the unique art and character design
why
2006
it took me 3 fucking tries to make instant ramen right
2009
i have around 1000+ hours into this game. if i spent that much time working i could probably buy this site by now
2018
ssj4 gogeta go brrrr. good story, love android 21, just hate how pay 2 win it is
2014
bought it at launch in 2014 when it was $70 and everyday i wish i hadn't. the game isn't bad by any means, but it's an utter disappointment compared to the other games. there is over $1000 worth of dlc as im writing this which is absolutely atrocious. ea has sucked the soul out of a once ambitious franchise
2016
fun stress reliever with a surprising amount of content for the games size, unfortunately suffers from the burn out all simulation games seem to have. love it regardless and well worth every penny, speaking of penny fuck her i hate you penny.
2013
i could never afford the new pokemon games when i first got into the franchise in 2013 so sadly i couldn't pick this up until 2019, and it was the first pokemon game i completed (i rage quit pearl when i was a kid lol) and i loved it at first, but after playing older entries it's just...so bland? i truly love the ideas the game has and the aesthetic but the gameplay is so lackluster and painfully easy. even with no exp share everything is handed to you regardless. one annoying thing too is that if you don't pick froakie and charmander as your starters, you're left with using other pokemon in the region as your swimmers/flyers to which none of them are really good. i tried to replay it but after the 3rd gym i got bored and went back to platinum. the start of gamefreaks decline imo, had so much potential :( only thing holding it back from being a 2.5/5 for me is the charm held in the region and clothing customization
2014
very fun and charming, one of my favorites for it's creativity and surrealism. but i absolutely can't recommend the $15 price tag for 2-3 hours of gameplay. there's a glitch in the end that makes it impossible to finish that has been known for years and yet still hasn't been fixed :( regardless i really do love this game, the art direction, scenery, and humor is chef's kiss in my opinion. if you find it on sale, i'd def say grab it! it's a good, short game to play when you have some freetime but don't want to delve into something super deep.
2004
the sims has always been an integral part of my childhood, but I never actually played 2 until early 2019. ever since doing so it's become my favorite entry in the series and in the entire game. the love and details put in this game amazes me to this day and i find small secrets whilst playing almost every session. it's silly and raunchy but not over the top, the balance i think modern sims games are missing. i see criticism that the game can be hard, which is fair, but it mostly just takes getting used to. also, the aesthetic is stuck in the early 2000s and i adore it, it's so charming. killer ost, too. i can't say enough about how much i just love this game
