In early 2002, I bought a PS2 and the PS1 version of Street Fighter Alpha 3. And my favorite character was Sakura Kasugano. I only put it down when the blisters on my thumbs hurt too much. After a few months of that, I went out and bought a fighting stick. 👍

Hot Wheels Unleashed 2: Turbocharged. Now that's a fun arcade racer. That's my first race. I'm sure that it'll get more challenging later on.

Wait. What? "That" is a Crysis Remastered trophy on the PS5? Picking up a critter? I just picked it up because I thought that I might toss it at the enemy patrol up ahead.

Breakout was my Dad's favorite game. I was never that good at it. This is my first Breakout: Recharged game on my PS5 and it ended pretty damn fast. But I got a Trophy, so I guess that's a win.

I do play some on PC. Mostly on Steam. And even then, It's mostly retro titles. Like this one. Unreal Tournament 3 Black Edition.

Two Christmas presents to myself from me. I’ve got them in my bedroom. They’re metal posters.

I was about to dig under those boulders when I saw the loose dirt above them. Yeah, that was a trick. If you drop those boulders, you’ll never reach that prize. Now I’ve got a SteamWorld Dig 2 Trophy. Woot!

I'm loving Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves. Of course, I was always a big SNK fan too. I love how this AI is very aggressive, forcing me to really step it up some.

And I absolutely refuse to use that flying axe on him! And due to my stubbornness/recklessness, he almost got me. Almost!

I remember when I played Bioshock for the first time in 2007, I got so seasick during this sequence, that I had to put the controller down and go outside. I was so dizzy that I was moments away from seriously pukeing on my shoes.

I never really played much Tekken, but I'm starting to grow really fond of Tekken 8. Ling Xiaoyu is about the only character that I halfway understand. She's the character that I used when I got Tekken Tag Tournament for my PS2 over 20 years ago.
I am starting to yearn for a PS5 fighting stick. 😉
