I hate comparing games this way but it's sort of like Boku no Natsuyasumi with photographic (or filmed ig) backgrounds and a fewer things to do. That doesn't mean it's lesser though, there's really not much else out there like this and I really liked that it was real locations. Good practice for those learning conversational Japanese too, everythings in kana or very common kanji.
If for whatever reason I ever end up anywhere near the area, I'd love to visit the town this was set in.

I've had this game's cartridge blu-tacked to the outer side of my bedroom door for nearly seven years. I only remember this every 18 months or so, when a new visitor to my house decides it's worth noting out loud. I wonder how many of my interpersonal relationships this has impacted without my realisation, with this being one of their first impressions of me. Perhaps my life would be on a completely different path if I hadn't stuck it to my door on a whim so long ago. I suppose I will never know.

Very addictive but also gets exponentially harder as it goes on. Some of the status effects the later enemies have are totally brutal, like the red orb that rusts your weapon after 2 hits or the shark that steals your food points. I had fun though.

What if the cars films were games and good. Also opening movie is one of the best I've ever seen, would not have gotten as far into the game as I did if that wasn't the first thing i was shown. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MoEpAVAGU2s
edit: changed my mind on the cars movies, the first one is vibes city

played golf and a dressup challenge game with irl friends over discord, taking none of it seriously, and i gotta say it. this game is great when played like this. just some real dumb fun
2002
God knows how I finished this on 360 with all those frame drops back in 2016 but I'm replaying it through emulation now and yeah, this rocks.

this and other minecraft modpacks are like fucking crack for my brain. I actually have to be careful and set timers when I play them or my whole day will be gone. and when I exit the game I have a lingering desire to start it back up that I have to supress, even if I rage quit. Do not play this if you're like me, you have been warned

One of those instances of a simple series game getting localised into English. The mall pizza of Japanese video games. Incredibly scuffed translation (positive connotation, it's pretty amusing), everyone speaks super bluntly and in totally unrelated one-sentence statements like that one Britney Spears tweet. There were also a few quirks with the dialog not being quite right in some instances like a woman saying she had to go home to her wife (cool, but they probably didn't mean to do that), or a 15 year old talking about their kid learning to read? Overall not a bad afternoon if you're like me and have an affinity for janky budget sim games.
Writing this review after I remembered this game exists and that I completed it like a year and a half ago. An on-rails VS platformer I guess? Very silly and a fun enough afternoon, takes maybe like an hour or two to finish depending on how good you are. I haven't seen the show this is based on btw.

Kind of a budget-type kusoge but it's actually quite fun. Sell a few steam trading cards and wait till it's on sale and you can practically get it for free.
A gacha game but without the game. I was a huge SIF fan so I'm really disappointed.
2007
it's nothing special but the average rating would without a doubt be at least .3 points higher if pbg never talked about it

Mysterious LSD-like. Could probably be better optimised, being graphically a PSX throwback but still somehow making my computer louder than when I play Yakuza 0. It's still in beta as of writing so I'm interested to see where it goes.
