Visions Of Mana - 6.5/10

Eh it’s okay I guess, bog standard ARPG riddled with performance issues and bugs.
The games art and sound direction is absolutely gorgeous though and it’s worth playing just to see how beautiful it is.

PowerWash Simulator 2 - 8/10

More of the same goodness the first one gave to us. Aside from a weaker story and some annoying bugs, it’s just a load of fun and the ending was super wholesome.

BALL X PIT - 9/10

I’ve just tapped an absurd amount of hours into this game over a 4 day period since its release. This is so sick honestly, in a sea of paint by numbers roguelikes this one stands out near the top. PLAY THE HELL OUT OF IT.

Whoa calm down, an easily influenced person like myself might start really loving videogames because of these sort of words being thrown around!

Oh god I can’t do this to myself again, I’ve already sank enough hours in the game on mobile and console previously 😮‍💨

It’s gonna suck so bad, the last good thing The Simpsons did was the first movie and no way can they ride that wave again!

Borderlands 4 - 9/10

Just rolled credits on the main storyline, had a lot of fun with it aside from the odd nag with systems and occasional bug. Felt a lot more mature and the humour was much less cringe than 3. Really hoping the DLC’s add a lot more to it in the future!

Metal Gear Solid 4 - 9/10

Simply one of the best games I’ve played. Being half game/half drama series with a movie length ending took nothing away from the experience and I definitely shed a few tears.

Also, act 4 is the best fan service and farewell to MGS’ inception too!

Unpacking - 6/10

It’s alright as a game, the story meant nothing to me and it’s just a moving in simulator for people with order driven OCD.

Just seen the screenshots for the game, my hype is dead already.

WHAT HAVE THEY DONE TO MY BOY!!!!

Good to hear, yours look quality!

Pokémon Snap - 6/10

Had some time to kill today so I started this. Glad I never bought it when I was a kid as this would have been a complete waste of money. It’s kinda fun I guess, but takes about 3 hours to beat overall.

Talking heads on the setup?

Definitely need Devo - Oh No, It’s Devo and Men At Work - Business As Usual then!

Sonic Colors Ultimate - 5/10

I should just stick to 2D, Saturn and Dreamcast era Sonic.

I really don’t like the other games I’ve tried and aside from this being a mediocre and frustrating game, it’s a terrible enhanced version as well with no real effort being put in at all.

Looked rubbish from the onset, just lifeless and uninspired. Not surprised it’s reviewed so averagely.

Herdling - 8/10

Such a gorgeous, simple and short game with tonnes of charm and a beautifully crafted minimalistic soundtrack.

Even without dialogue and small visual cues telling the story, it’s easy to get attached to the herd and it felt very personal to me by the end.
