General / Your own videogame reviews thread

« on: May 02, 2021, 05:50:59 pm »

I thought this would be fun, because I like writing up reviews of the games I played, so I figured others might enjoy doing the same. I want to make this as open as possible, with only a few ground rules:

1) Only write reviews for games you've beaten. There's no need to get 100% or the best ending, just beat it.

2) Only write reviews games you've beaten recently. Please, don't use this as a thread to just rate your all-time favorites, this is a place to flex your writing so others can see what you think about a particular game. If you have reviews you've written previously and want to put them here, that's ok, too.

That's it. Do modern games. Do retro games. Make it one sentence. Make it an essay. Give a score out of 10, out of 5, give it no score. Other than the two rules I'm requesting people follow above, have at it. I'll post some of mine below (these are reviews I wrote previously, when I beat said games, so they do follow my own rules).

Look forward to seeing what people come up with.

Modern Video Games / Did you say you wanted more physical Ace Attorney on Switch? You got it!

The double pack with slipcover is available now on Amazon JP.

https://www.amazon.co.jp/-/en/dp/B0937NTVQT/ref=mp_s_a_1_2?dchild=1&keywords=成歩堂レジェンズコレクション%2B(【数量限定特典】「蔵出し設定画」「蔵出し楽曲」が手に入るダウンロードコード%2B同梱&qid=1619148939&sr=8-2&th=1&psc=1

The individual new compilation Great Ace Attorney Chronicles will be here... but they haven’t gone live yet.

https://www.amazon.co.jp/-/en/dp/B0937NQP1R/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=大逆転裁判スイッチ&qid=1619156149&sr=8-1

Remember, English is on cart for these, and only the Japanese releases are getting physicals.

PS - if you’re a real diehard, the Japanese Capcom store has some snazzy preorder bonuses, but they are pricey, and you need a mail forwarder to get it.

Modern Video Games / Heads up NeoGeo Pocket Color lovers

« on: April 22, 2021, 12:01:29 am »

A physical compilation of 10 games (* see below) is going up for sale tomorrow on Switch. There will be a retail in Europe, so no FOMO required, unless you want one of the CEs.

Limited Repro Games will be releasing a typically underwhelming, brittle CE tomorrow, but if you want something that costs the same, has higher quality, and better components, then the Pix N Love option is for you (they also have even more expensive variants if that tickles your fancy).

Purchasing from PnL also sends a message that you won’t support the other company that engages in gatekeeping of what should be retail prints by limprint companies (again, there will be a PEGI retail, PnL are just doing CEs), or deceptive region locking practices.

* List of games on cart:
- SNK GALS' FIGHTERS
- SAMURAI SHODOWN! 2
- KING OF FIGHTERS R-2
- THE LAST BLADE: Beyond the Destiny
- FATAL FURY FIRST CONTACT
- SNK VS. CAPCOM: THE MATCH OF THE MILLENNIUM
- METAL SLUG 1ST MISSION
- METAL SLUG 2ND MISSION
