Why am I reviewing Sonic Forces on a retro gaming blog? They bring back Classic Sonic for this entry, and I have some big complaints about this game. As the sequel (but not successor) to Sonic Mania, Sonic Forces brings with it a pretty interesting plot but one that’s more tell than show and has …
I hate The Final Fantasy Legend. It sucks. It can go die, because I hate it. The story is fine I guess, but it goes on for way too long. It recycles its own assets, stores, shops; game mechanics are never made clear; and the soundtrack is the worst video game soundtrack I have ever …
Sonic Revert is one of the best 3D Sonic games out there, and it’s not even made by SEGA or Sonic Team. Sonic Revert is a 3D Sonic fan game made by Taldius that has Sonic designed to move more like a car would than how a normal human would run. This way of movement, …
Everyone knows what Pokemon is. Like seriously, everyone knows. So after finally completing Shantae, I wanted something easy. A game where I could cheat to my heart’s content. Not so much challenge myself. So I chose Pokemon Blue. Pokemon Blue has many different Game Genie codes that you can use to do all sorts of …
When I saw the trailer for Sonic Mania in 2016, I was overjoyed. If you weren’t a Sonic fan at that time, you should know that Sonic Mania is exactly what almost everyone in the Sonic community wanted to see. When it was released the next year, I started a playthrough of the game on …
Spore’s post-game content doesn’t seem to get talked about very much. Nothing changes after beating the game, but it’s safe to say that you haven’t experienced all of Spore just because you got to the glowing center of that star-flavored lollipop. Even for me, there are many tools and weapons I’ve yet to get for …
Mega Man Xtreme gave me flashbacks to the hardest game I have ever beaten, Shantae. Mega Man Xtreme is a port of Mega Man X for the SNES (Super Nintendo Entertainment System). This game tricked me into thinking it was just a standard boss rush with its simple story, challenging but reasonably beatable gameplay, and …
I pirate all the retro games I play. It’s true, and my favorite tool for doing this is a little thing called the “Everdrive GB x3”. This is a Gameboy cartridge with a microSD card slot that allows you to store and play all your Gameboy and Gameboy Color games on one cartridge. I find …
Spore is probably one of the most notorious sandbox games ever released, right up there with Minecraft. At least, that’s what I thought. Up until I started streaming Spore on my Discord server I thought everybody and their grandmother knew what this game was all about, but it turns out I was wrong. Many people …
Shantae is one of if not the most enraging and challenging games I have ever played. Even turning it on takes willpower. The level design and enemies of Shantae can be infuriatingly difficult, but at the same time, the mechanics can be fun and engaging. And although I don’t think the story of a game …
Please don’t steal my stuff.
