Hyrule Warriors: B+

I had a blast with this game. That said it is a dynasty warriors game, and if you don't like those types of games I recommend not picking it up.

Punch-Out! (Wii) - 10/10

Mario Galaxy: 8/10

 

Not my favorite Mario game but there isn't anything wrong with it.  I just don't like it as much as the others.

Mother - 10/10

Although it hasn't aged as well as I initally thought, the story and the world of the game made me addicted for days. Surprisingly short, though, and there's a steep difficulty spike at the end.

So far, my favorite game of the trilogy. Virtual Console plez, Nintendo?

I've beaten Mother 1 at least twice and I think it simply doesn't hold a candle to EarthBound. Everything M1 did, M2 did better.

I haven't beaten Earthbound yet.

Haunt the House: Terrortown - 7/10

Phoenix Wright Ace Attorney - Dual Destinies:  9/10

 

I would have liked to give this game a 10, but I had issues...

 

Namely...someone put the investigations parts on easy mode with the changing cursor.  I didn't NEED a hint, game...and that just seems condescending to those who have played the game series for a while.  So...I had to dock a point.

 

Still...this is a very good game in the series, and the addition of using the witness's emotions to ferret out testimony was a nice touch.  We also were using Wright's Psylock and Apollo's Perceive mechanics as well.  (No use of Edgeworth's Logic?  Pity...)  All in all, a great game with one HELL of a plot!

Goat Simulator - 7/10

Seeing how fucked up a physic engine can get makes for a fun distraction sometimes.

Pokemon X (and Y, but I only played X): 9/10

Pokemon is a nice game to play on the fly, but it'll get boring after a while. However, that's for the casual players. In order to get the full-blown experience, you have to go against real brains - you have to go PvP. Do your reasearch, and plan out your stats. Pick a good item and build the best team(s) you can. If a team don't work too well, learn from your mistakes. There's too much in the game to ever get bored of it, but only when you really get into it. The only reason I didn't give it a ten is because the game will run out of rv (replay value) eventually if played casually.

 

Smash Bros. 3D : another 9/10

Smash... welp, it's a nice game to play on the fly,and it's very probable you'll come across another Smash player in a public enviornment. You can play against AIs for the fun or to train up on a character. And if you wanna test your skills, you can play online. Don't expect easy matches in the For Glory server; those people fight to win, almost at any cost. But if you aren't all that ballsy, you can still play in the For Fun server for a kickass time. I'm not giving this game a ten because the online play "requires" you to get ah ethernet cable for your 3DS to reduce lag. And on that point, "lag" in Smash pauses the game instead of having some input lag, which I can deal with and barely interupts the flow of the game; even in For Glory.

Borderlands The pre-sequal: 8.5/10

 

Uses everything that worked in borderlands 2 only it lacks in content for the main story quests.

Dark Souls 2  7/10

 

I have mixed feelings about this game.  They streamlined the weapon upgrade process, brought back some of my favorite "toys", made you less of a sitting duck while using ladders, and eliminated the need to quit & reload in order to trade with the crows (that was a BIG peeve of mine about Demon's Souls and Dark Souls).  Also, being able to travel from bonfire to bonfire without using a special item rocks! 

However, the boss fights just aren't very fun.  In Dark Souls, I actually looked forward to fighting some of the bosses (and dreaded Bed of Chaos), but the ones in DS2 seem more like a chore.

Pikmin 2 - 8/10

While I adore Pikmin, I'm mixed on this game. I loved it too, but...it seemed too long and WAY too difficult. I do want longer Pikmin games, but this one overstayed it's welcome. Also, fuck the enemies. And fuck the Waterwraith.

Super Smash Bros 3DS: 8/10

 

It's been leveling in the ranks as I play it more.

 

Initially, on the first day I would've given it a 5/10 for extremely low content and lack of story. It was a very disappointing game.

 

Currently now that I've played it a lot more, it moves up to 8/10. Still low on content, and lacking a story, but the Online with Friends is really good. I can't tell you how many times I've wrecked VHS.

 

Also nothing is more sweet then effectively having Marth counter a Golden Hammer. The sheer sound of victory.

 

 

Fire Emblem Awakening: 10/10

 

The best Fire Emblem ever. Hands down. I've never encountered an error in the game, The difficulty is just right and the extensive amounts of content and story make it worth replaying over and over and over. (I've got 3 different files that I'm playing all at the same time)

 

 

Sonic Boom (Wii U) Rise of Lyric or whatever: 7/10

 

How'd this game make it through beta. Was SEGA smoking something? I don't know but it's awful glitchy, least 'cording to the Internet. (Fact: I've only experienced a total of 5 minor glitches in the 6 hours I've played the game)

 

That being said I'm actually really enjoying the game. Even if most of the enjoyment comes from making fun of how bad it is.

 

I enjoy the characters and the story is intriguing and pulls me in enough to keep playing.

 

At first it had some bad stage design but the later levels have improved on that a lot. I also don't like how in the HUB area in multiplayer if anyone bounces on a bounce pad, when they land the other player will warp to them, and Player 1 always seems to randomly warp to player 2.

 

 

And the games I'm currently playing through on Aw Crack:

 

Super Mario Galaxy: 10/10

 

Sure it's got some errors, sure it's the hardest Mario game I've ever played (it really hits near the end on the Purple coin star in the Toy Galaxy). But I like it anyway. Currently in recording I'm on the final stretch so I haven't quite collected all 120 stars. Not to mention the Luigi Playthrough you have to do to get the 121st star (I won't be playing through the Luigi on Aw Crack right away, if ever).

 

 

Pikmin 2: 9/10

 

This game is amazing. It's got some real length to it though. At first the game is really easy, then you get to the third of fourth cave in the game and it steps up to extreme difficulty. Definitely the hardest Pikmin game, as the only difficult thing in Pikmin 1 is the Snagrets and Emperor Bulblax and Pikmin 3's only real difficult part was the Plasma Wraith.

 

It gets docked points because it's got some areas that are so difficult it's no longer entertaingly challenging, just ridiculous. Currently on recording I'm in the final stretch, about an hour or two left of the game.

 

 

Luigi's Mansion: 9/10

 

To anyone who didn't play this game, you're really missing out. This game is freaking amazing. That's all I can say. Recording wise it's done. Watch the full Let's Play on my channel. It's somewhere on YouTube.

[Vlad Yvhv]

Prey: 10/10. Kinda like Doom meets Duke Nukem. I like the snarky comments from the hero, the weapons, and the ability to get killed and come right back and kill the mother****er who killed you. Plus, stuff like taking a boss monster's weapon by cutting off its arm with a forcefield. Best way to get a gatling gun/grenade launcher combo ever! And instead of some lame pistol or otherwise seroulsly underpowered weapon, your default gun is a combination sniper/assult rifle.

 

Prototype 1: 5/10. It was good enough, up to the point of a damned near unkillable boss with a ticking clock. I can't beat that final boss. Keep either getting myself killed, or running out of time. So that knocks off 4 points. Some other minor problems pile up to eat another point. Plus, I really don't like Alex Mercer.

 

Prototype 2: 10/10. They've fixed 99% of the problems I've had with the origional. James Heller is a much more badass hero. Plus, I litterally got to rip Alex Mercer apart. And with New Game Plus, I get to do it again and again as many times as I want. Heller is probly as close to a true Vlad Yvhv style character as any videogame will allow.

 

Skyrim: 10/10. Love the freedom the game allows for. Plus, the ability to build up a truly badass RPG character. Again, my character is more of nerfed version of Vlad Yvhv, but still retains plenty badass abilities and powers. In particar, I enjoy the fact that I can be a werewolf, with infinite transformations. Plus, the Argonians' ability to increase regeneration rate and breathe underwater are rather useful to my style of gameplay. In most situations, I can get in there an do a LOT of damage without needing to rely on healing potions. The only thing that would make this game better would be if they were able to merge it with Prototype 2's abilities and attacks. Then, I'd really have a true Vlad Yvhv style character.

 

Rage: 9/10. Haven't completed it yet. But merging the concept of Doom with some RPG elements seems to be working ot rather well so far. Also, they've included the good ol' BFG. I had to restart my game because I missed out on some choice stuff earlier in my first run. Getting that stuff is making my second run MUCH easier.

Hellz yes! Massively underrated game. I cried tears of blood when I heard the sequel was canned.
