Emily <3 Is a decent game at best, the plot gets very boring through the game IMO, but it has decent features that makes this game a time travel machine at best.
Gameplay
Very interactive gameplay with nostalgic value elements, the game is a literal parody to facebook. The developers were not joking and they even made special sites clickable only through the game that looked like old media stuff back from 2008. In this game you talk to people and check the news feed and that's all. It gets very boring after sometime because you will play a full 4 chapters that are 1 hour each, you can check profiles see pictures and stuff like what facebook is today.
Story
AIM is dead, a social network that you and your classmates talked in the beginning of high school. It's a teenager romance story between you and a girl called Emily, you talk with people and attend parties, things get emotional when you have feelings for Emily and after high school everything ends between you and her because college separated every plan. The first 2 chapters are boring, only 3 and 4 are somewhat good because you start to stalk emily out of jealousy to find stuff about her friend called jeff helped by a mate of yours called matt.
Conclusion
You want teenage years? go outside, yeah I wish i told myself that eariler lol but seriously this game feels tiring as fuck after sometime but it is a pretty long game for a conversation simulator and if you feel the energy you could try it.

2024
Helldivers 2 might be the second birth of christ, well that feels too exaggerated to say the least but this game kicked off 2024 with an awesome bang.
Gameplay
A third person shooter that is based around extraction missions in a first galactic war sci-fi themed atmoshpere, localizing planets and getting a squad ready to exterminate cyborgs, terminds, and the Illuminate. You have a variety of weapons and customization for your soldier, this game gives me the vibes of battlefront 2 (either the old or the new) and a bit of deep rock galactic, but in this game you actually feel that you contribute to something. And the gameplay does not get boring because it is not starfield where you get bored immediate when seeing another planet that is a copypaste. In this game you have a ship that is yours and there you can change armory and select planets on where to go and having objectives all the time while fighting for freedom by capturing certain zones and collecting samples, and a very unique reviving system that also can be applied to call supplies and special artillery, or even a huge mecha droid.
Conclusion
While writing this (4/1/2024) is my second day playing the game and exploring various difficulty levels in-game, this game yet again shows how small devs can bring something that connects everyone including new friendships. I swear, if this game came out in the pandemic instead of among us it would've been better than ever! this game embraces the democracy and freedom in a spatial war with great features and graphics and that makes me happy as a sci-fi enjoyer, also make sure you have a decent PC, my specs are mostly from 2019 but do not get tricked by the minimum requirements, even newer builds suffer while trying to run this game and this thing happens to me but that does not stop me from fighting for LIBERTY, AND DEMOCRACY

I was such a dumbass not knowing this app till I got the information about it, fightcade is a wonderful platform where you can play retro 2d arcade fighters with other people.
I barely got it today and the emulation works great, tried st3 and mk2 and it works amazing, I genuinely have no words how this online platform existed, literally let's you play singleplayer as well, found even my beloved metal slug franchise there alongside with many more games to explore, this is a god blessing in the world of retro gaming.

I'm starting to think that everyone is being paid to say shit about this game endlessly, to be honest I got it for one euro because as of now it's a sale on steam (11/1/2023) and I finished it within 7.2 hours, look they fixed some of the problems about it and I will tell you what problems I had with it. Alt+tab crash, random crashes in-game but not that frequent, encountered 2 bugs in only 2 missions the rest were okay.
Look it's postal, at this point I played every postal game and I finished this one without taking mods or anything and it was okay. This game was not meant to be serious, it's a fun shooting game with objectives. Yes, it's not that open world like postal 2 and it's pretty straight forward when it comes to missions because you are being teleported to the location after the cutscene so yeah. After you beat it you get atleast a free roam mode in the new game, if you boot this game up only to take it serious then I don't know what's your problem pal it's just a clunky game with edgy jokes.
So yeah, postal 3 will never be like the others in the franchise, and I think that's why it was hated besides the awful launch that it had. Overall akella might left it unfinished when it come to some stuff but even some older games have problems but they have a positive fandom so yeah people.

Red Dead Revolver is a forgotten game of it's era, mainly because it was foreshadowed by GUN, that's what I said in my RDR2 review, but is it worth it to try it today?
Gameplay
This game might not be open world like GUN or something like that, but it has a hub which is the town. It's a fine third-person with action and wild west theme even has a weapons menu each time you start a new mission and there you can repair your gun and stuff, even wondering around the town you can go into the saloon,gun shop and stuff like that, and yes it has interaction with NPCs so you can do/buy stuff with them.
Duels are neat, but the game in general gets very tough and I will explain that later.
You play the storyline missions with other characters as well, not only Red Harlow, also the game is pretty goofy most of the times so yeah.
Story
The events of revolver are not canon in the RDR universe, just like the GTAs with the 3D versus HD.
It happens in 1880s, our protagonist loses his parents and this marks a huge revenge sequence in the plot, later on Red Harlow finds himself in brimstone, a city where he takes leads to find his wanted killers. There he takes bounties and tries to stop outlaws for the sheriff, when the sheriff acknowledged his true identity he let him go free later on, as a second antagonist we have Javier Diego the leader of the mexican army, he reformed an army by the name of renegade, he was one of Red's family killers and chased him down while riding a horse on a train.
You can also play with jack and annie, and even red's cousin from his mother side, annie wants revenge because her ranch was burnt out by griffon's men, griffon is the main antagonist of the game.
You can play with another major character in the game by the name of jack swift, a bank robber.
By the end, after red wins the battle royale him and his two fellas are chasing down griffon in his mansion to put an end to his suffering, there you rescue another playable character by the name of buffalo, a soldier that you played in some missions.
After your friends are separated you find griffon and take him to a last duel to avenge your family and after that you decline the bounty price because it was already paid by the satisfaction of avengeance.
Conclusion
A story with a basic plot, not a bad plot but a memorable one because it was not so complex, sometimes i'm really amazed by some games of the PS2, this game got some great content aside from the story but do me a favor, PLAY THIS GAME ON A PLAYSTATION CONTROLLER, I finished it on a 360 bootleg and it was PAINFUL mostly in the end when you have to cover annie and jack and checkpoints are not that many, it had some aim assist but the controls were damn awful and that's why I died so many times in a duel, by default this game is pretty tough and I won't be mad if someone used quick saves if they were in my position (I did it in some parts).

Donkey kong but reversed card, nice climbing mechanism.

Literally childhood
1985
Growing up I never touched nintendo games, neither mario or zelda. Played/finished tons of games growing up but recently I was just like ehh let's try some ancient games and I picked up super mario bros randomly and it was awesome. For his time this game was amazing that's why I gave it a 5/5 stars cuz if i were an asshole i would just give it a 3 but nah, i will keep it like that. Might actually understand westernes when they talk about these games. Challenging, fun, memorable characters, awesome soundtracks.
Anyways, I will pick up the second game and finish it also, the only nes game that i finished before mario was ghost' n goblins, so yeah.

20 Minutes Till Dawn is the type of game that I play in class for some reason, it's in the same top down genre like vampire survivor with roguelike elements, fairly interesting though the mobile version is full of ads and I have some problems with it.
Gameplay
You can choose between 2 modes, a 10 minute one or a 20 minute one, in this game you can unlock other characters and get better weapons by playing any mode you like, gaining points and upgrading is quite fun but on mobile it feels like shit, there's always an automatic roll that you can get better upgrades but you have to watch ads. To be honest in my free time I would play this one on a PC but yeah the rest of the gameplay is simple, killing NPCs gaining points and upgrading abilities and gear. If you die in the mobile version you can respawn by watching a 30 seconds ad and that's something I don't really like, the characters design look decent and you can even unlock some of them by watching ads (2 ads).
Conclusion
Interesting bullet hell with roguelike elements, would recommend to play it on PC instead of the mobile version tho.

A classic in my books.
Maaan the multiplayer was fun as fuck personally. My most played multiplayer cod game is BO2 and MW2 but this one takes the third place with no doubts. I saw the new movement to be fun and fast, maybe one day I will play the singleplayer since I only played the MP just like ghosts.
2019
I'm sorry, you play DOA for the fighting mechanics?
Nah chief, only for jiggle physics.

A great WW1 game, it died so fast tho.
After finishing lotr's trilogy I wanted to try some games that are connected to lotr (spoiler alert: yes this game is connected to lotr but it's not canon storywise) picked it up with dlcs as well and the game was great (finished only the main storyline missions) and i'm looking forward to play it more since I got the dlcs.
Might be one of my favorite RPG game of all time to be honest, the combat is great and the graphics are way ahead for a 2014 game and the stealth is not complicated and very straight forward.
By the way only 20 main storyline missions to finish, so the game is very short there, shadow of war is way longer from what I heard so can't wait to play that one after i'm done having fun with this one.
