Now THIS is everything I expect from an indie game. The game tosses you in immediately into play with no real direction to go in. The ocean is bright, colorful, and full of life that you can interact with. The music makes it obvious what you should be feeling throughout your playthrough. The world goes from bright to dark and takes a fairly dramatic turn. I had a story that was loose, but had just enough for me to feel good about my interpretation of the events.
Also a big 1up for making me feel comfortable playing an almost entirely underwater game. I still have trouble even dealing with the eel in Mario 64. I need more indie games like Abzü.
This a really fun, fast paced, 2d race against up to 3 other people. The controls are simple and intuitive: run, jump, slide, swing and make sure you don't end up out of bounds. The best way to play this though is with your friends. Every match turns into a tense showdown of who will mess up a jump first.
4 stars for always being a fun time with people I know. Missing a star because I am not going to open and play this one on my own. Though single player mode is plenty challenging. I'm still working on world 1.
I REALLY hate that I'm writing this but... I just didn't get it. Let me start with what worked well. The visuals throughout the game are stunning. The music is epic and sets a great mood through all the different stages. The gameplay is simple and easy to follow.
What didn't work? When a game is short, lacking dialogue, and lacking real conflict, I need the story to MOVE me. Words aren't needed, battles aren't needed, but I need to feel and understand on some level what the game wants me to learn. I ended the game and had no idea what I did. I didn't understand the journey, I didn't understand the destination, and I don't love the "ending". This one hurt.
1. The community is all taking part in the fantasy. With friends and with randoms, people are laughing in chat, yelling call outs, "sacrificing" themselves in large explosions to save their teammates. It's just good fun.
2. Once you get to medium difficulty (which isn't actually medium, there's like 7 harder modes) this game gets tough and requires teamwork.
3. Extracting the team. The longest 2 minutes invovle fighting hordes of enemies while your extract ship arrives and making sure the whole team is alive to finish the level.
There's some repetitiveness in missions, but I'm hopeful the devs are going to keep being responsive and keep giving us more.
Oh forgot about 4: The free battle pass has ALOT of stuff in it and it's reasonably priced. It's making me really consider paying for the premium.
Main story and all side missions complete. 94% complete and I don't see myself searching for a few obscure items to finish the 6%. I loved this game. The story was engaging and fulfilling. Everything about the way it ended made sense to me. The large map became more and more fun to traverse as I unlocked skills. The combat mechanic was intuitive and allowed for creativity. Every boss was unique and extremely entertaining. The 3d enemy moments felt very fresh and different from other games. This is the first official game I completed on the Steam Deck and I think playing handheld added to the experience. Ubisoft completely knocked it out of the park with this one.
I absolutely loved this game. The motion controls were a little rough, but as a kid, it just felt like something you got used to. Played both the story and the multiplayer over and over.
When I started the game, my initial thought was wtf is going on. I played on and watched the story unfold. It's a dark story and the realism is in point. Don't let the goats fool you.
Honestly, I feel like I could leave one review and it would apply to every Kirby game. I'll say I thought this one was more challenging than most Kirby games. The upgrades they made to this game from the Wii are noticable and positive. Highly recommend for yourself and especially if you have young ones.
Great gameplay, challenging puzzles. The carry system was great for obstacles too tough for my kid. Minus 1 star because the story felt a little too vague. I know games want people to interpret stuff, but I need a little more direction for my interpretation to make sense.
I just completed the game and honestly don't know how to feel about it.
The colors and music suck you in right away. I love that every time a letter is read to you, the game gives you enough walking room to enjoy the dialogue without having to stand still or worry about falling. The puzzles scaled in their difficulty and were fun, but I thought they became a little too elaborate towards the end.
The ending though is really what's stopping me from going 5 stars. I had built up in my head a couple predictions of where I thought the game was going, but I didn't think all the great build up was utilized enough. I was left wanting and unsure.
If you enjoy puzzle scrollers though, I still recommend playing. Play handheld if possible.
Fast games, classes that each feel different and meaningful. I'm really loving this game and happy to have something that pays differently than all the current fps. Definitely needs to be played with friends since communication is key. Leaving one star off for some QOL stuff I'd like and a better job of not throwing me into the middle of a game. Look to OW2 and their priority matchmaking system.
My new obsession. Cars drive smoothly, the tracks are unique and there's a learning curve to doing consistently well. As always, having a ranked mode is a plus. Love that Fortnite is supporting this and allowing me to gain battlepass XP while enjoying this fun game.
Glad to review now that the episode is out. Galaga was my favorite arcade game growing up playing with my mom. I'm all in on these space shooters. I play controller for this one (didn't love the keyboard layout). The game is very challenging, but fair. There are some challenges to hit specific scores which will require hitting some perfect runs, but in no way is it a quarter eater like the arcade games of old were. I'm through 3 levels and had to focus in the beat each one. Cheesy dialogue is over the top, but it works. I completely believe that the salty foods are the good guys and the sweets are evil.
Writing this review 2 "episodes" in. This is a really nice kid's first video game. You get to do simple tasks that teach kids concepts like platforming, following markers, and collecting items. Even my 1 year old got excited hearing the theme song play when we turned the game on.
I put 4 stars but if I'm being honest, I think it's closer to 3.5 for two reasons. 1st: For a game with very basic animations (nothing wrong with that) it has some frame bugs and even caused us to restart the game once. A game this simple shouldn't have those things happen. 2nd: the game has a VERY limited audience. Even for my 5 year old, it's already really simple since he's already been playing other games for the past year. All that said, it's a great intro to games for kids and maybe even some adults, grandparents. I had no problem spending 40$ on it.
I finally feel ready to write this review. They did it; they created the new standard for Mario 2D video games. I'm blown away by all the aspects of this game. The music is new, light weight, and fun. The colors pop on screen. The Flower Kingdom is its own world separate from the Mushroom Kingdom.
The level designs are well thought out and expansive. The Wonder Flowers made it seem as if each level was a 2 for 1 deal. Each one was it's own unique experience. Some levels had secret exits. Some were obvious, others took a little extra exploring. The star system was accurate and fulfilling. 1 star levels were a great way to break up a tutorial throughout the game as opposed to front loading and giving the game a slow start. The worlds were filled with entertaining 2/3 star levels and each ended with 4 star levels that were challenging. The 5 star levels were very clearly 5 stars, but were generally not needed to complete the game which leaves the game open to both casual gamers, young gamers, old gamers, and gamers who look for extra challenges.
The collection system is full, but not overwhelming. I am not chasing after 1000 meaningless, obscure objectives. It has not felt like a chore going through and collecting coins and seeds as I play the levels. As I am writing this, I have a few loose ends to tie up and I plan on doing so. Before this, the only game i had any real aspirations to 100% complete was Mario 64.
Thank you for removing the clock system and encouraging exploring. That alone may be the biggest change to 2D Mario. And for anyone that wants a clock, they still gave it to us in small, challenge segments.
This will go down as a generation defining Super Mario game. I am sitting here having serious considerations if I think it is better than Super Mario 64, but I can definitively say it has been the best 2D adventure I have played and it will be placed in my Mt. Rushmore of gaming. "Too-Da-Loo!"
I’m having an absolute blast with this game. Fun, quick matches, multiple weapons, and a great ranked mode. I can see myself playing this for a long time.
The music and graphics are a real treat with this game. The controls are smooth and the different styles of drivers are noticeable and fun. The courses feel short and there aren't many yet, but I'm hoping the constant updating of content addresses that. The pay to win feel hurts the game for me. If you give me a ranked, regulated mode, I'll go to four stars. I would absolutely love this as a C3 event though.
Update: I can't stop playing, so we're moving up to 4 stars. All other previous comments still stand.
Update 2: We're hitting 5 stars. There's an aggression needed in this game, especially off the starting line, that I really love. Your character is rewarded with boost for being offensive and crashing into others. The ranked grind is a fun time. The items all feel useful and skill dependent.
Just wow. I took 3 hours to play through this game. The colors, the music, the play style. This game is tragically beautiful and emotional. This is a game to show people the level of depth and emotion a game can provide without saying a single word.
Very early review. This game is an upgraded version of BBS. KH gameplay and fighting always feels smooth and fluid. I'm into the story and happy to be playing as Sora and Riku again. This series does a great job at making each game in the series add important context to the overall story.
It's a great game to play with a team. Communication is key. A colorful game, with plenty of characters, weapons, and abilities. I never played OW1, but I can say I always have fun playing OW2.
It's dangerous just how quickly these kinds of games just eat up time. Go to play one or twice and all of sudden 30 minutes have gone by and your family wants to know why you're still in the bathroom.
15 years ago, I'd given this 4 stars. When mobile games were starting, this was one I played endlessly. Today, the repetitive gameplay + endless ads are ruining this and many other mobile games.
Time for the official review. This game makes BOTW, former game of the year, look like a demo. Every aspect of the game has improved. The weapon combination system is fun and creative, the new building system adds layers and layers to accomplishing quests, and the map has expanded and changed. I love seeing the differences made to the iconic landscapes of BOTW. The cutscenes give life to the story in a way I thought BOTW missed. I'm engaged and want to complete every task. Nothing seems like a chore even though most of the time my gameplay involves exploring, climbing, and saving Koroks. I spent 100 hours in BOTW, I'll spend 150 easily in this one. Here's your 2023 GOTY, Nintendo does it again.
I love this game and still think it's as fun as ever. My best memories of this game are playing against my mother on the N64. We had the Namco bundle on N64 and as soon as I saw the Namco bundle on Switch, I bought it again.
I really love the team aspect to this game. I'm rooting each round for everyone to be successful and carry me to the next level. Best played with friends.
If you love Harry Potter this game is everything you've ever wanted. Explore Hogwarts, enjoy all the details and Easter eggs, build your room of requirement. There was so much love and effort put into the game.
If you aren't a Harry Potter fan, this game is still great. It has a smooth, creative combat system, characters that you can empathize with, and an amazing open world to explore. It is the best game to come out this year so far.
You'll get out of this game what you put in. If you play with the intention to be as stealth as possible and avoid killing people, you're going to have a fun time finding creative ways to win and explore the levels. If you just go guns blazing, you'll fly through and not truly experience what makes this game fun. 4 Stars because this is one of the few times that I think an original game was better than the sequel.
Finally finished this one. I’m torn on the rating because it has been the least enjoyable KH for me so far. In reality, I’d probably give it a 3.5. I did not love the repetitive gameplay through the three characters, but being that it was a full game on a portable system, I understand. BBS added a great layer to the story and took the series from a random island, with some random kids, who randomly got some weapons, to a story of whether or not one chooses their fate or if their fate is chosen for them. Even if it was not my favorite, I will say the final boss fights in each story were fun and challenging. I’m looking forward to starting Dream Drop Distance next.
I really tried with this one. Played solo, played squads, I just don't get it. If I want fast gameplay, I'll play Apex. If I want fun, creative play, I'll play Fortnite. If I want teams, I'll play Halo or OW2.
Very fun, enjoyable fighting game. Doesn't hold my attention long term like smash bros does, but I'll continue to play it time to time. Definitely different enough and free to play is always a plus.
I’ve finally played this enough for a proper rating. 2 minutes into the game, I knew it was a 5 star, Mario classic. I had immediate memories of playing Mario 64. Some things I immediately noticed and loved: every stage has a multitude of achievements that can be somewhat done in any order, once you gain a “Moon” you can keep playing and don’t need to re-enter the level again, the hat mechanic is creative and doesn’t feel forced. The graphics are a colorful and bright continuation of Mario Galaxy graphics. I feel like this game is the true culmination of 35 years of Mario Adventures.
This felt like a great mix of different style zombie games. There were slow moving target practice zombies and chaotic running zombies in the lockdowned city. The different styles of play made the game interesting to play more than once.
If I could give this game 6 stars I would. Kirby is not about being super difficult. It is just a fun game. Player two is also a great way to play with your kid. There probably isn't another game I've completed as many times as this one.
A difficult game. As a kid, I played exclusively in training mode because the special abilities only required one button press. I don't think I ever beat the final boss, but the game was very fun to play.
Still a fun game, but everything felt just a bit lesser then MMX. Bosses were easier, power ups were almost too strong, and the final level felt easier than the original. Playing on Switch, I appreciate the upgraded graphics.
I only played this one on other people's consoles, but there was something missing to this game. It just didn't have the charm that smash brawl had for me.
Mobile games for me are generally just, play for a few days and forget about it. Jet pack joyride is an exception. I played this game constantly, unlocked all the gear at the time, and kept trying for higher scores.
I didn't know what Doom was nor would my parents have allowed me to play it, but I knew Chex Quest. It is a total reskin of Doom for kids to play. I loved this game and played non-stop on a Windows '95. There's also apparently a remaster for free on Steam with Co-op and multiplayer. I would have never known I could replay this game if it were not for Channel 3!
I remember having to convince my parents to still let me play the series even though this sequel came with an M rating. Warrior Within upped the combat, upped the gameplay, and kept the story moving forward.
This was a great game. The acrobatic movements and fighting style felt unique, the story was engaging, and the sands of time powers were fun to use. Also, this game set the stage for it's semi-successor, Assassin's Creed.
This game is still the GOAT of Mario sports games. The gameplay, the character selection, the ability to create unique teams all came together perfectly on the Wii.
The original Super Mario Strikers was simple in design, but the gameplay was amazing. This was a great intro into what has become my favorite Mario Sport series.
Everything about this game was fun. The story and CPU battles were tough, the multiplayer was great, and the customization felt relevant. Different battles needed different styles of play. I would love to see a version of this on the switch.
I owned many versions of this game at home. Had the dance pads and everything. Some of these also had games on them that were basically speed drills that I would workout with. I put this as one of the games that I considered myself pretty good at. I was the guy playing the tough songs in the arcade.
I had no idea there were so many Gauntlet games. This was there only one I played back on GameCube. My brothers and I had specific characters to always use. Hours and hours of fun.
Update: I've been meaning to write this for a while, but the amount of disappointment this game made me feel is tough to describe. They took what I think is their best sport series and gave us a hollow shell of what it used to be. This game gets the same review from me as Halo Infinite. The gameplay mechanics are there, but the content is a 1/5. Shame on Nintendo.
They've kept the essence of the game while still making it feel new and fresh. This is going to be an exciting skill based, multiplayer battle.
I probably in a minority here, but I find nothing appealing in this game. I don't want to make a house, I don't want to send people to work, and I don't need to listen to their gibberish. Just a boring game.
This is one of the most beautiful games I have ever played. Both for the music and the art work, this game should be played in a dark room with headphones on. The updated battle system, ability upgrades, and save style made this a perfect sequel to Ori and the Blind Forest. This is an absolute must play game.
Despite not being very good at it, Marvel vs Capcom is probably my favorite fighting game. This game is what actually made me a Mega Man fan. My local Doughnut shop has an arcade box of this game free for any customer to use. So now my son gets to play this great game too.
Here's another game that I'm not sure anyone but me played. When you talk about difficult games, Jet Force Gemini needs to be included. I still remember the exact boss I never could get passed. Maybe one day the Switch will give me a chance at redemption. The multiplayer was fun too.
I've never met a person that didn't enjoy this game. This game had 20 levels that could be completed in a kart, raft, or airplane. That would be difficult today to create such encompassing levels. I'm hopeful for a one day sequel or at least bring it to the Switch Expansion.
I love this game, random tripping mechanic and all. The game was given a floatier style of play which contrasted with Melee's sharp and heavy style. The story mode was amazing and the final smashes were a fun addition to Smash Bros (granted it was a feature I didn't use much of). Besides the base game, the mods that were created by fans were great to play too. Brawl Minus was my personal favorite.
I have never met a single person who played or even knew about this game. For me, though, this was the first fighting game I ever owned or played. I didn't know who Ryu or Ken were, but I knew Ryo and Robert. They used their own version of the Hadoken and even used the same button inputs. To this day, I can only beat this game at difficulty 2/9. The CPU does not hold back. This game also holds a special place as the game my dad and I played the most together. To this day, he reminds me how I never could beat him when he used Mickey and his "ultimate move" (hold down on the d-pad and keep pressing attack). I later learned this game was a precursor to King of Fighters.
"X" is the superior Mega Man and nothing anyone says will change my mind. He's older, stronger, and the game remains challenging to this day. Though I enjoy some of the other MMX games, I think this original one is the best of the series.
I just love everything about this game. Mix Disney and Final Fantasy, a story about darkness and light, and the best game soundtrack around, and you get one of the best games of my lifetime. I tear up every time I hear the opening title song.
IMO, this is the pinnacle of Mario 2d scrollers. Again, Nintendo does a great job of adding elements that become staples of the Mushroom Kingdom. Yoshi became so popular, it’s had multiple games dedicated to the multi colored dinosaurs. Mario’s cape has been part of his arsenal since smash bros melee (I prefer it over tanooki). Nintendo also continues its staple of placing multiple secret paths and levels in its games. Great levels, fun music, and bowser riding a propeller jar that would eventually be passed on to Bowser Jr.
The best (64) , the hardest (sunshine), and the most beautiful ( galaxy). Nintendo loves putting out “classics” over and over, but the replay ability is unmatched.
This will always be my favorite Mario game. No game or system has ever made the dramatic jump in abilities like Mario did with the N64. 3D gaming, vibrant colors and stages, and an amazing soundtrack. Though I played NES and SNES games, Super Mario 64 was the true start of my love for gaming.
Though this game was just another game with a Mario skin thrown over it, Mario Bros 2 gave us character designs that have stuck till this day. Luigi jumps high, Peach can fly (float? glide?), and Birdo exists. Not as good as Mario Bros 1, 3 or Super Mario World, but still very fun and memorable.
It is ultimate for a reason. This is the peak of the Super Smash Bros series. It has over 80 characters, and don't listen to tier lists, they somehow made it possible to be skilled and successful with every single character.
Hades succeeds where other rogue likes fail in keeping players engaged and replaying over and over without getting stale. The story continues way past the “main” story and keeps adding layers the more you engage with the characters. I’m 80 escape attempts and I could probably do another 80 and still have things to do in this game. A must play.
From a game play perspective, infinite took everything all us middle aged people loved about Halo and made it feel fresh and new. But the lack of variety in game modes, cosmetics, and XP earning makes it hard to stick to outside of playing with a group of friends.
This game is special to me because my brothers and I play trios and get to chat while not living in the same state. The game is welcoming to all levels and is just a high quality product.
This is my first Souls game and it delivered big time. The game is as difficult as advertised. What really amazes me is the amount of bosses and that each one presents its own, unique challenges. I am 75 hours in and I still haven't completed the map. Even with so many hours logged, I still am enjoying the story and the slow, but steady progress I am making.
No build mode has allowed me to really enjoy Fortnite. It also has the most rewarding Battle Pass system I have come across. I love that I can play alone and complete a variety of objectives that have nothing to do with actually winning a round. The art is also creative and fun with each new season.
Mario kart 8 is clearly the pinnacle of kart, but Double Dash was the one I put the most time in. The weight classes and special character items really moved the series forward. And player 2 was great for the younger sibling.
Create a game around religious and mythological stories and I'm in. Smooth fighting mechanics, multiple fighting styles, and you learned a little bit as you journeyed through the inferno. Had some replayability too.
Anytime someone asks for VR games recommendations, this is number 1. Beat Saber is the most fun you’ll have while also getting a pretty good workout in. They keep adding to the music selection, and who doesn’t want to wield lightsabers?
The "sequel" to one of the greatest games delivered with an updated, smoother battle system, challenging bosses, more Disney characters, and new characters to pull at your heart strings.
As a kid who knew absolutely nothing about football, this game provided a fun and easy way to play. The only issue is that I thought 30yd 1st downs were real.
Nintendo has done everything it could to make non golfers enjoy golf. Best played with friends. My only issue is there needed to be another way to train your Mii outside of story mode.
This game taught me that I’m terrible at staying on task without being forced into it. Oh you need me to prove myself worthy of your guild? Sure, I’ll put saving the world on hold for that. And repeat. Endless hours of fun.
I can’t tell you why this or any Kirby game is great, I just know it is. One of those games that continues to hold up over time with a simple formula for success.
This to me is another game in line with Star Fox for SNES. The game was too ahead of the technology and the Nintendo 64 versions are better. Thank you for walking so the rest of the series could run.
I put this game in the same realm as the Sims. If I wanted to experience normal, everyday life, I wouldn't be playing a video game. I guess it can be relaxing.
Loved this game. I remember having it with the marios bros.2 in 1 cartridge. I also remember I had a orjector version of duck hunt as well. The duck would light up on a wall and you got a rifle instead of the handgun. Fun, simpler times.
Games like Beat Saber should hold a yearly dedication to this trend setting game. Guitar Hero let me feel like a true rockstar. I know for me personally, Guitar Hero introduced me to a whole section of music I had never heard before.
The injustice games made me feel like I could play Mortal Kombat. The move sets are complex, but more manageable. DC generally does well creating animated stories and games, and this one is no exception. Just keep them away from anything live action.
Nintendo came back this year with their proven Kirby formula and nailed it once again. Kirby gains some new abilities and revamps a few classic ones. The colors and art style of the levels and the villains are vibrant and fun to watch. I could not put this game down. Two player mode is great to play with a younger child or sibling.
This was my favorite FPS game during the 360 days. The story was great and the multiplayer was unique and fun. Few things were as satisfying as finishing off an opponent with the chainsaw.
Gears 2 was the perfect follow up to Gears 1. The fighting mechanics improved with Chainsaw duels and the added Horde mode added Co-op fun. The story continued to be a huge strength and emotional rollercoaster.
Only Nintendo can make taking pictures of fictional animals so much fun. I didn't play much of the Pokémon RPGs, but the N64 Pokémon games were always great.
This was my first DBZ game. It was fun, but it had real issues. The Kamehameha was yellow instead of blue, the special moves all required arbitrary inputs, and the game only went through the cell saga.
This game only came out a year later, but there were significant improvements to the game. The art style greatly improved. Special techniques came out in a more fluid form and we got the Buu Saga.
This was one of the most difficult games I played as a child. I remember playing with my parents and writing down all the "facts" in the game guide. This game is still great today.
This was my first Kart game. I played it non-stop and thought I was pretty good at it. As an adult, I've learned I am in fact not very good at this game. I don't think it holds up to the updated versions, but it was great for its time.
I have loved the Mario Tennis series since the N64. This game is fun, easy to pick up, and had a cpu competitive enough to constantly challenge you. Even today, the game is great to play. This game is full of hidden unlockable courses and tournaments, and it was the debut of Waluigi.
Just a beautiful looking game. This was a great upgrade from the previous console's Mario adventure. I distinctly remember just using the flying cap to go around the game lobby.
This was my first experience with FPS online multiplayer. The Xbox 360 was the wild west of gaming and lobby room chats, and I loved every minute of it in HS.
The game doesn't hold up to the sequels, but when this game came out, the world changed. This game was such an amazing change in fighting (party game, whatever) and it has one of the best gaming commercials ever made. When it finally comes out on the switch expansion, I'll be excited to play it again with friends.
There was a clear change towards competition with this sequel. More characters, added moves, the induction of spot dodging, all added up into one of best games on the GameCube.
I probably like this game more than the average person. I don't need every game I play to be a 10 difficulty. Memorable music, fun art style, and fun replayable levels to this day.
Banjo kazooie one was already challenging and this one came and upped the difficulty still. The size of the game was impressive for the time and the addition of different eggs and multiplayer really let this sequel stand out from the original.
I recently played this again and still enjoyed it for what it was. It's not Mario's most exciting adventure, but if you want to enjoy simple, turn-based combat try it out.
I feel this game could've given us more. Smash Bros Kirby had a better design and movement. The saving grace here was the ability to combine abilities. Though the combination mechanic wasn't continued, you can still see the influence of this game in newer titles such as The Forgotten Land.
It had its moment, but this ended up being another Pokemon adventure that I was not very in to. The original game that this was skinned over seemed more fun.
My least enjoyed Mario adventure. The FLUDD mechanics were interesting but this game just seemed overly difficult and suffered from odd Mario camera angles.
I played and loved Dynasty Warriors back on the PS2, so I was really excited to play this game. I just could not get into it. It became a chore just to try and finish the game for the sake of the story.
Maybe it was because I played the remastered version on PS2, but I thoroughly enjoyed this game and its card based battle system. It was genius to create an entire game to connect KH1 and 2 seamlessly.
I think the updated graphics were fun and didn't take away from the fun play style. This was the one I owned o the Xbox 360, so it's probably the one I was best at. Once again, more characters is a good thing.
Legendary music, levels that you can go back and play over and over, and the Chao garden. I spent countless hours on this game. I love everything about it, cheesy dialogue included.
Few feelings are as great as diving off a building into a pile of hay. I feel like this game really added to the gaming world in general by making platforming and parkour skills really matter in a 3d world. Great character, great story.
Here's another sequel that took a game to the next level. The amount of detail in the recreation of Italy is unmatched in my view. Ezio is the assassin I will always relate the series to.
Even though I thought 2 was better, the addition of multiplayer in this game was amazing. It was a unique way to battle using assassins. I also really enjoyed being able to train assassins.
This is the final Assassin's Creed for me. It thought the story held up and was a fitting end for Ezio. Being able to use Altair again was a great add on as well.
RuneScape was then first MMORPG I ever played. This was such an amazing world that I spent countless hours in. I wish I had saved my original account. I still log in once a year in my phone now.
I admit this review is.tainted by the amount of Skyrim I played first. Somehow the same style game with guns didn't feel as fun. Still a good time, just not a great time.
Its my turn to be that person. I played Mario Party 4 and 6 the most. Playing mini games with friends is the only reason I give it 4 stars. Mario Party felt too random to me to be fun. I was over the series.
Same review as 4. Its my turn to be that person. I played Mario Party 4 and 6 the most. Playing mini games with friends is the only reason I give it 4 stars. Mario Party felt too random to me to be fun. I was over the series.
There were alot of things Nintendo did correctly with the Wii. Mario Party 8 was not one of them. I did not care for the game boards and the Mario Party play style just was not for me. Side note: Going through these reviews, I realized I don't recall playing any of the odd numbered games outside of the original. Childhood me knew these games weren't my thing.
Had so much fun with this game. Loved the hack and slash game play and watching the military grow as you battled. Didn't realize all the sequels that exist.
