This game is weird and imperfect, and more Pokemon games should be weird and imperfect. I loved my team of Typhlosion, Leafeon, Espeon, Ursaluna, Empoleon, and Crobat. One of my favorite teams.

I'm not going to finish the post game, but this game was good enough to finish, which is more than I can say for Brilliant Pearl (which I did not finish), and Pokemon Shield (which I did finish, and played post game, and did DLC, and it brought me no joy).

This is a heck of a lot of game. It's like an extra large pizza with every topping, and a side of cheese sticks, and vegetables (for health). This is a good and bad thing. I still can't believe a game like this got made. It's an incredible experience that I want to keep going back to, but I'm also stuffed on it.

I love Skate 3. It has Dinosaur Jr. on the soundtrack. Being in this world and moving through it is one of the greatest gaming experiences of all time. When I go to my parent's house I still pop in this game and play it with my little brother.

Have you ever asked yourself "I wonder what the company that made Morrowind is up to?" The answer is making a game that is inferior to Morrowind in just about every way.

Morrowind had the outside player come in as an outsider, learn about the world, and piece together the fact that they are part of the prophecies. It's important to learn about the people, factions, and cultures. Skyrim just feels like the protagonist is a tourist in a boring world. This is a big game lacking anything worthwhile.

I took a gaming sabbatical from 2013-2016. I gave my little brother my 3ds and all my games. In 2016 I felt the itch, went to Gamestop and bought a New 3ds XL and Pokemon Alpha Sapphire. This is the game that got me back into video games. It's perfect. I played this game casually, which turned into me playing this game competitively, which turned into me playing video games from 2016-forever.

This game is Sapphire but better. The Delta Episode is excellent. I beat the game with Swampert, Charizard (I wonder traded, big deal) , Hariyama, Aggron, Manectric, and Latias.

This is the last good Pokemon game ever made.

I played this game after Pokemon Alpha Sapphire, and it's inferior in just about every way, except for the roller skates.

This game is fine. I personally thought the Pokemon experience was perfected in ORAS. The additions here, like Z moves, feel bloated in a way that made me not enjoy competitive play—when I even decided to hop online because the online options were so much worse than the streamlined interface in ORAS. Nearly everything about the game was a step backwards, except for getting rid of gym battles in favor of traditional JRPG boss battles which were incredibly enjoyable.

I decided to play with a team of only Alolan/Alolan variant Pokemon, and it reminded me of my playthrough of Pokemon White. My team when I beat this game was: Decidueye, Mudsdale, Alolan Ninetales, Alolan Persian, Salazzle, and Alolan Golem.

While I am a huge Pokemon fan I had never played a Gen 1 game before 2018. I played this game entirely on a trip to Spain and Portugal in 2018. I played this game in the airport, on trains, and in Air BNBs. This game felt almost like a Shin Megami Tensei game—one wrong move spells disaster, but hitting weaknesses consistently will win battles. This game is a testament to the timelessness of Pokemon.

This game is a love letter to A Link to the Past, a game that I do not love. This game is just as well-made and interesting, and that's all I really have to say!

This was the game that made me buy a PS4. My father-in-law bought a PS4 for my brother-in-law, and they turned on Uncharted 4. I had never seen a PS4/Xbox One at this point as I was mostly interested in my 3ds, but Uncharted 4 was the most beautiful game I had ever seen. I bought a PS4 and played Uncharted 4, and you know what? It's fine. It's a mechanically boring game to play, but it looks amazing and that's what counts (not really, 2 stars).

I played this game a lot as a kid, but I bought it as an adult from a record store for $20. This game is a fun, chill, vacation-like game where you just get to hang out in a Pokemon world. I love it. I beat this game 100%. Some of those secrets are really tough, but in a good way that really captured my imagination, even as a twenty-something fool who should have been reading a book.

I played this game entirely solo, which is the wrong way to play. This game is a game mechanic buffet. There's so much to think about and do that this game could keep someone occupied for hundreds of hours and still have more to be uncovered. I played it for like 60 though and that was fine!

I miss my Shibuya teens. Persona 5 is an imperfect, messy game. It missteps in the story and theming and mistreats its characters frequently. It's also one of my favorite games ever made. I played it from October 2017-March 2018, slowly letting it win me over with the best turn-based combat I've ever played, a world designed to just vibe in, and characters that I legitimately miss to this day.

I hate saying that a game is just "hard," but I played this after going on a chill vacation to the Iberian Peninsula and honestly this game is just relentless in an unenjoyable (most of the time) way. SMT IV has quiet, sad moments in its world. It's not so unrelenting like Strange Journey. It's too nihilistic, and just not fun to play even if the battle system is really, really good.

I love Mario 64. You can read my review of it! This game is Mario 64 but more. More characters, more stars, more minigames, more portable! It is almost incomprehensible to my 11-year-old mind that a game I wanted so bad in 1999 could fit in my hands in 2004 (I got this in 2005 though).
