So much fun doing this.
So many more clears to do as well.
Great work! I saw your name on the speedrun table after this run. Is this a new focus for you now? I know speedruns take an insane amount of dedication, but it would be great if someone I actually watch reguarly moves up the list.

I'll be doing more Speedruns on Metroid for sure, as there's loads of cool bits I'd like to try and I know I can do better. I like the idea of plotting faster routes and getting better. I did a second run live last Thursday and recorded at 47:28 which is 23rd on the Deathless/All Bosses Category. I'll keep working on it for sure. It's oddly addictive.

21 - Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart - PS5

I finished this two days ago and feel like I've forgotten most of it all ready. It's pretty, real pretty and fun but no depth with any mechanics to master or learn. Can't complain though, I definitely enjoyed it while it lasted.

This is a really fun table, loads of ramps and the extra modes aren't too difficult. The whole pack seems decent (this comes with three other tables based around American Dad, Bob's Burgers and Archer), but this is the first one I decided to try to complete all the challenges for. Another great Pinball FX fable!

Can't wait to see what they do with the upcoming next-gen platform, titled Pinball FX (no number suffix). Apparently they have a few new tables ready for release, and they'll look gorgeous.

Just finished off the career of this, as they first present it to you anyway. I don't expect I'll come back for the 100% completion. It was a fairly enjoyable time, and I do have to give credit to the good aspects of it, but I couldn't help but focus on a lot of the annoying little things the game does too. My more positive feelings from my first impressions do still hold up for the most part. To actually drive it feels good, and I do appreciate the lighting and volumetric effects that help make it aesthetically a bit more pleasing than you often get with games based on real world race tracks. But then as I got further in more and more issues started getting on my nerves to a degree. It feels restrictive with what you can drive in a not particularly fun way, and there are a lot of quirks which taken in isolation are just nit-picks, but can't help but put a bit of a damper on the fun in the grand scheme of things.

Aside from the stuff I talked about earlier, I also found this game has a tendency to make cars magnetise together when they come in to contact during a race, which slows both of them down too. It's really annoying, given how it can happen a lot through no fault of your own as AI rams in to you, and it's really hard to pull away from. There's a setting to reduce the strength of this effect, but you can't disable it completely. I also noticed a weird bug with the AI, where if you resume from a rewind at the entrance of a corner when there's a lot of AI in front of you, they have a tendency to veer off the track wildly in the opposite direction. It's so reliable that it can even be used to intentionally exploit in a race. But if you happen to be in the wrong spot when it happens, it can be a pain too.

I don't want to be unfair to this game though, most of the time it's mechanically competent. And I actually appreciated going back to a more serious closed circuit racing game after not having done so for such a long time. A lot of races were pretty fun. And when I compare this against my favourites in the series, I have to acknowledge a huge part of my feelings about the old games was because of the online community. I had a lot of fun playing online with friends back in the day, whether that be racing, drifting, just messing around, showing off cars, etc. I didn't get that with FM7, but I can't say it's the game's fault. I just don't tend to play online much these days in any game, and the circle of friends I used to play with has long since dissipated. I haven't bothered to try out the online in this game, but I gather much like with the homologation system, this game attempts to make things much more focused and competitive, introducing a lot of rules to try to create a better quality of driving online. That may have worked, but at the same time it's kind of intimidating and puts me off wanting to try for myself. I also haven't properly tried drifting in this game either. I got the impression this one might be pretty accommodating to it since it includes the drift-specialised suspension upgrade like FH4 does. In that game it makes drifting much easier to jump in to than any of the other Forza games I played before, so I would imagine it makes it similarly approachable here. So maybe this game is good on those fronts that I haven't delved in to. But as of right now the best I can give it is the benefit of the doubt.

But my general feelings from what I did play, I'm kind of lukewarm on this game. I had some fun with it. It did make a genuine effort to give this series the shot in the arm it needed, but it unfortunately backfired. Yet those things don't totally ruin the experience. There's decent enjoyment to be found here. It's not the franchise-ending disaster as I feared it could be, which pushed me away from trying it for so long. Yet the issues that get brought up around this game definitely are problems.

Finished this on Vita a few years back and really enjoyed it, but picked up the Treasure Trove pack on Switch for Christmas last year, and just finished playing through the original campaign, retroactively named Shovel Of Hope. Still really enjoyed it, it didn't enamour me quite as much as the first time round, but still had a lot of fun. The boss rush at the end of the game I managed to clear first time, and I remember it taking me ages originally. I'll leave it a little while, but plan to go through the other campaigns at some point, too.

22 - It Takes Two - PS5

Really reaally good fun, great gameplay variety in varied environments. Not particularly hard or challenging but that worked in its favour as it was part hangout part gaming session. Story was a bit nonsensical but good enough to keep things going.

A few play-throughs of one of your top five games ever is always a good start to a month, followed by more loads more Cotton Reboot, which is also quickly becoming a favourite! Game Pass newbie Twelve Minutes was a star-studded but janky point and click thriller that starts compelling but becomes confusing. Blair Witch was leaving Game Pass and being a massive fan of the film decided to finally try the game I’d never fancied - it’s alright. And yet another game of Silent Hill 2 done, but in my defence it was the HD version on Xbox which I’d never played before. Finally reached the end of Luigi’s Mansion too, after quite a long time dabbling - another one that’s alright, but looks far better than it plays.

Finally got round to a second playthrough after losing my previous save file. Decided to do an all bosses/mini bosses run. I'll run through NG+ at some point to finish the Shura ending. I was surprised how painless this run was, although I was expecting it to be easier naturally. I beat many bosses on the first try and don't think I died to any more than 5 times.

Replaying the game drove home just how enjoyable this combat system is. The sound and visual feedback, along with enemy animations are spot on. Reading and responding to enemy combos, while playing aggressively and mixing in techniques, tools and items, is so engaging and exciting. Adding a boss rush mode was a great move too.

The biggest drawback is the amount of mini bosses that are surrounded by minions or placed in a frustrating environment. I wouldn't mind the boss duplication if they progressed in a satisfying way. It's a big drawback on your first playthrough particularly, when you're still getting to grips with the difficult combat.

Overall I'm really glad I replayed the game, drove home to me how much I love it and also how nice it can be to revisit an old favourite.

Not sure what to make of this one. On the one hand there are a lot of things I did like about it, but it also left me feeling kind of confused at what it was aiming for. It delivers in some ways very well, but in others feels somewhat lacking. I don't want to knock this game just for not being like the other games in the series, but also don't want to give it a free ride just for being a No More Heroes game.

I did genuinely enjoy playing it for the most part. The visual design is great, with a really cool and diverse mix of aesthetics that is really vivid and colourful, with some really unique and inspired character design. The combat was also pretty fun. While it's not particularly deep and is a little clunky, that does come with the territory of Grasshopper games. But it's fast and satisfying, with a chaotic energy that feels right at home in this series. There's also a lot of callbacks to previous Suda games that were amusing. I particularly got a kick out of some of the references to Killer7. The game is also constantly subverting expectations too. There's always some surprise when it comes to each boss you go up against, and you can never be totally sure how it's going to play out. It was also good to see all these old characters back, and the new characters are mostly good too. FU is a fun antagonist and cutscenes between him and his comrades actually do a decent job of fleshing them out. So on a raw entertainment level I did have a good time with this.

But when I start thinking a bit deeper about the themes of this game and the series it's a part of, things get murky and I don't really know what to make of it. NMH isn't a favourite just because of the surface level aesthetic and game feel, but because of the more thoughtful side under the surface. All the games had ideas and a point they were trying to get across, even if NMH2 didn't do so as coherently as the others. At first it seems like NMH3 is intending on deconstructing superhero media. Not exactly in line with the rest of the games, but I can see how that's tangentially related, and there's a lot of material it could explore there. But the game doesn't make good on that at all. The theme gets brought up in dialogue a few times, but it never feels like it has any relevance to what actually goes on in the game. And I couldn't see any other theme the game might have been trying to go for instead.

Then there are certain things about the content and structure of the game that I have a hard time coming to conclusions on. Things that can't help but inspire comparisons to other games in the series. The open world is back here, but with caveats. A lot of what appears on the map screen is inaccessible, and there are no linear action stages either. The world is small and barren, a criticism you often hear about NMH1. But while I think that worked with the themes that game was going for, and it even had a certain atmosphere to it, I can't extend the same defense to this game. I don't necessarily miss the linear stages, as there's plenty of combat to engage in out in the world itself that serves as a build-up to the boss fights. But I'm not sure how I feel about the idea of having to ride around to spots where you can activate fights rather than them being paced out naturally in a linear stage. Similarly, the menial job minigames come back here, as "volunteer" activities. Some of them were an amusing novelty, but once I got near the end of the game I stopped doing them. With this game lacking the themes of the original, I don't really see the point of these things returning. It does sort of feel like they only exist because they are expected of the series, and not because they actually made sense to be here. The same could be said about the open world as well, although I've always been pro-open world for these games and a little disappointed NMH2 omitted it. I like the idea of Santa Destroy being an important part of the fiction, and seeing how it changes over time. I guess that was somewhat fulfilled in this game, but without the themes to back it up it's perhaps somewhat wasted. Yet I can't say I hated exploring around this world. It's not bad that it's here. I just don't know how I feel about it.

But again I don't want to tie judgement of this game too closely to the others in the series. I went in expecting it to be different. After so long being away, and after what Travis Strikes Again brought to the table, this game was always going to be its own beast. I wanted to let it stand on its own. And by its own merits, there is a lot I liked. When taking my experience with the game in total, it's overall positive. The moment-to-moment gameplay is good, it's a visual spectacle, and it manages to both bring back some familiar feelings and repeatedly surprise in unexpected ways. But it can't escape the feeling that it doesn't quite have the pointedness that made the first game a classic. It feels somewhat aimless, and I'm left feeling a bit confused about it. I liked it, and I'm happy to have played it, yet it still feels like there's something missing.

There's so much that's just a little off about this game. The camera doesn't give quite the right sense of depth for jumping in 3D. The double jump's second jump is a bit crap. The rail grinding sections can get annoying. Oddly the jetski sections are fine.

The special masks range from cool (the purple one gives a cool infinite spin with massive jumps), meh (flipping gravity and slowing time have been seen in platformers) to 'oh dear god why' (the one that switches platforms in and out of existence, which is the first one in the game as well).

It does have good points though. It looks great. The levels with tweaks to camera and jumping could actually be really good and are a nice varied run through platforming locales.

This game is hard and with my complaints above this just made so many deaths feel worse. I played it in retro mode which starts off with 5 lives and running out boots Crash to the start of the level with 5 more lives. The thing is, Toys for Bob new how hard they made the game by including so many extra lives and wumpa fruit. I've died 20 times in a level and finished it with more lives than when I started. I had 80 lives at some point and only ran out at the second last level of the game (which just throws everything at you). I played three earlier levels to get 35 extra lives to finish it again.

The game is two areas too long.

I think Toys for Bob stuck too closely to the originals, but if Crash 2 was this hard, I have to give 10 year old me more credit for finishing it.

Finally this game is rated 12+ by PEGI. I heard someone say bastards at some point. Not something I'd expect in a Crash Bandicoot game and yet again something just a little off here.

Yeah I found this Crash game to be disappointing, for all the reasons for say, it is simply too hard, straying into frustratingly hard rather than fun, with many deaths feeling unfair. I don't remember previous Crashes being this hard.

I played this game a couple of years ago and didn't enjoy it as I found it too hard and I didn't like the roguelike aspect. I have never been more wrong about a game. I am so glad I gave it a second chance as now I adore it. I think what helped this second time was that I knew it was a roguelike going in and I started on Easy to ease myself into the mechanics. I also took my time a lot more thinking about moves, like in a game of chess. With all this I was able to slowly work through the game, unlocking new abilities and squads until I finally finished my first run on easy mode. I am going to now go back to try the game on medium difficulty and unlock more stuff. I think it's an almost perfect game, my only criticism would be regarding the difficulty, easy mode is hard enough so I think they could have done a better job with the difficulty balancing on the higher levels. 9.5/10

#11 - Mega Man X

Been way too long since I actually completed a game. Work's been insanely busy, and I'm a campaign chair for my local riding for the Canadian federal election (Sept. 20, pls vote fellow Canadians!).

But yeah. Mega Man X is one of my all-time favourite games, easily top-10, and it's amazing just how solid this game is. I'm at a point where I know by memory where all the upgrades are, and I have muscle memory for beating just about every boss and enemy. It's wild.

I'll never be a speed runner competing for the all-time best scores, but I do set a new personal best every time I play... This time, it was 2h12m for a 100% run. Not too shabby, considering it was the PS2 version with save screens, and it was a casual playthrough with several deaths (including at least 30 minutes stuck on Sigma).

But yeah. Great game. I'm almost done Onimusha as well, so that's on the agenda. And I started MMX3, so that'll probably roll in too. And maybe I'll finish Chernobylite one day...

Oh wow cool - now, I have no idea whatsoever where this has come from but I'd always thought you were based in Greece!
We have put down 450 lawn signs, and I think like 100+ big signs. I'm so excited having just looked at the data that my heart's palpitating. Like I'm so friggin excited. If we don't win, I'm having a week-long depression nap.

But yeah, I live in London. Ontario. The second-biggest London in the world. 400,000 people. I'm Macedonian by descent, and I have a Greek last name... I think I know who you are on Facebook, so you probably saw my name in the comments and went like, "Oh, Isopod is a Greekman." Macedonian-Canadian. It's a thing. We all know how to cook, and we somehow manage to seem ethnic af 2 or 3 or 4 generations in. XD

With Jurassic World: Evolution 2 coming out this fall, I decided to give the Return to Jurassic Park DLC from the first game a go. It's actually a pretty good edition, new skins for dinos and the island to match the 1993/1997 looks, adds in the Compys and Pteranodon, brings in the original actors from the first movie (none who phone it in), and has a fun story beat or two. The Site B stuff is a little saggy and less compelling, but both the first and third acts were a lot of fun. I've gotten all my five stars on every island, plus the DLC one, so I guess I'll be waiting for the new one now!
