I make decently edited videos about game trivia that won’t leave my brain.

Figured I should do something other than just share links to my YouTube, so here's a thread of every game I played this year which'll be updated over time.

(Pic of bulk of current game collection)
The Finale of "Explaining Yakuza 5" is now available for tier 3 channel members, in which the writers try their best to give a satisfying conclusion to the 20 hours of build up, (6.5 hours in the video).

Tier 2 members can watch the full video on the 18th Nov,
Regular viewers on the 21st.

It can be really upsetting to see a promising game get cancelled, especially when the reason why it's getting scrapped are some of the most idiotic explanations you've ever heard.

The new video is available now for tier 2 channel members, and will be public on 7th Nov @ 13:30 GMT.

We all know about censorship, but sometimes it can be kind of humourous just how far and weird the changes can be, often times to cover up something that is very obviously still happening.

What do you do when you've ran out of ideas, steal other people's work, it's fine nobody will ever know... until they do and you become a point of mockery at best, and risk getting sued at worst.

It's pretty common for games to get rereleased on newer platforms, what's less common is a game getting multiple releases for the exact same platform.

We've all made the odd bad choice, and plenty can be made during a game's development. What's less common is when one decision can be blamed for almost singlehandedly ruining an entire game.

A frequent topic of discussion is how the Xbox One was the moment Xbox as a brand started going downhill. On the bright side, atleast it wasn't the worst release a system had.

Whilst Nintendo is responsible for one of the biggest crossovers in gaming history, not every collab they've done has made a similar impact.

Sometimes a game takes a while to comeout, sometimes it just refuses to release for years, wastes millions, & has the potential to burn everything down via the eternal flames of development hell.

Isn't it great to see a classic series make a surprise comeback... shame we're instead discussing the ones that only helped them stay dead.

Achievement hunting can get pretty tedious sometimes, so imagine how much worse that could be if you found out you can't actually get them all.

mmmmm yes I love YouTube's completely flawless copyright system, especially when it allows corporations and artists to claim they should take my ad revenue because they made A COVER of a game song, even though I used the original song and not their cover.

This week I decided to look through some licensed games that either have interesting stories behind them, or are just generally strange based on what was licensed.
