#JustBeatIt @polykillpodcast.bsky.social No.240 Bomber Boy (GB). Bomberman's first portable outing. The stages all have (sometimes very annoying) gimmicks and you can select your items beforehand. It can get repetitive, but it's bomberman; what you see is what you get. But as always: pretty fun!

#justbeatbeatit Ghost of Yotei fine tunes the open-world experience by immersing you in a world in which every side distraction feels worthwhile and as important as the main story. Plenty of variety in attacks and gear, solid story, fantastic soundtrack @polykillpodcast.bsky.social

I had a good time playing Salamander 2. Great gameplay and visuals and a fantastic soundtrack. I was able to beat the Japanese easy version with 3 credits via the Gradius Origins collection. #justbeatit @polykillpodcast.bsky.social

I #justbeatit Persona 5 Royal. What an experience! I felt a real emotional connection to the characters. It took much of the play through to feel ok with all the systems, locations, mini games. I see the draw to play again; to relive the world. Master storytelling. @polykillpodcast.bsky.social

#justbeatit BALL X PIT. I stayed up past my bedtime many nights for an additional run or to upgrade parts of my town. I still have a few blueprints to unlock and there seems to be more to do, but I may use this beat to go cold turkey on this gaming addiction @polykillpodcast.bsky.social

Only though judicious rewinding could I ever #JustBeatIt Super R-type, even on easy, so that's what I did. The near constant slowdown is a blessing; normal speed returning unpredictably is what'll get you. Mostly a remix of concepts from the earlier, better games.Skip it

Dead Land 2 (PSVR2) doesn't have any of the janky charme of the first game. The game has so many bugs that you can get stuck in the tutorial 30 seconds in. Or the flamethrower may run out of ammo until reinstalling the game. Avoid, even for cheap.

Fantastic little PICO-8 bullet hell schmup with a fun to learn scoring mechanic. Go play it for free krystman.itch.io/cattle-crisis or throw him a few bucks for the installer. I of course can’t beat the scores of the big guys.

251) A Way Out
A friend from work had recommended this co-op game for me so I decided to try it out with my younger brother. The game ended up being really fun. The splitscreen was pretty cool as it made it look like two different games were going on at once

It really seemed like Alan Wake 2 would not end, and after about 50 hours it finally did. I feel like How long to beat is way off on this one. Also knocked out the 2 DLC’s. Way harder than I remember the 1st game being, and featuring some very obtuse puzzles. @polykillpodcast.bsky.social #justbeatit

Finally tortured myself and beat Shaq Fu (Snes). It is painful with poor controls and frames. I resorted to doing enough damage and letting the timer run out because after the first 2 fights, it became painful. 1.5/5 Now onto the genesis version. #justbeatit @polykillpodcast.bsky.social

I decided to go with the PSP version since it has a few exclusive characters. While I love the huge roster and the combat is good, the story mode for me felt muddled with annoying cpu and tedious mission objectives.

#justbeatit Silent Hill f is a solid spooker. Managing health, stamina, special attacks, weapon durability, and items to replenish each, eventually gets repetitive once enemy types stop evolving. Game is short so I overall liked the creepy settings with neat puzzles @polykillpodcast.bsky.social

232) Mortal Kombat 3 (Genesis)
To avoid sounding like a broken record I’ll just say that for this port aside from few obvious technical differences it pretty much plays the same as the SNES port.

#justbeatit Zombies Ate My Neighbors—on PS4 with a save feature—for my first bingo on the @polykillpodcast.bsky.social board. This may be the game I put the most time into as a kid without ever beating; a friend and I rented it over and over and always lost by level 30. It was always fun, even so.
