Gone Home (Switch) - Thoughts

 A remarkable tale about a forbidden love, all wrapped within the ancient confines of an old home, all waiting for the big sister to find out the truth when she came home the night before their parents returned from their hiking trip to try and reconnect themselves. A beautiful story laid out in pieces from beginning to end, and a hard felt tale about what one thinks has to be done in order to spread the life one really wants to live.

Mercenaries Rebirth (Switch) - Thoughts

 A fantastic continuation of the 3DS series out on the switch, with moderate changes to the format that really is starting to give the game it's own flavor and not just a recopy of the 3DS games over again, and especially given the different routes in this game, the story is wildly different and can wildly change as it goes on, changing from even who the main bad guy can be, all because of 1 to 2 decisions you've made previously to lead back through the game.

Holly and Desmond, at Peace.

As it should be.

Void Bastards (Switch) - Thoughts

 A wonderful roguelike where you are a series of prisoners forced into service trying to fix the prison ship that you're trapped on and send it back to earth for you to face your punishment (Which it would be better to stay in the nebula, although I do fear what the ship would do if the person rebelled against them), so you are forced to collect random bits and bobs, trying to fix the ship, while at the same time fixing up your own arsenal to try and keep yourself alive.

Which is hard.
Very, Very hard.

Those Screws, man.....

Whose Line Hoedown - Flying

 Towering in the skies above, without a care in the world,
To see the world from such high up would be the ultimate thrill,
There’s just one sad thing, to keep many people from seeing that sight,
And that is their incurable fear of tall heights!

The Outer Worlds (Switch) - Thoughts

 The underlying troubles and threats surrounding the Halcyon colony and all of it's people were almost caused by self-inflicted wounds, and unable to change towards fixing the issues necessary to finally saving the colony. Not even the maniac known as Phineas Welles, who was on the right track, was just one man.

Thus, the introduction of the new Captain of the Unreliable, and their neverending efforts to try and fix the colony, either it be through talking it through the many leaders of the colony, or, eventually, violence if it called for such. It was thanks to this captain that the Halcyon colony may finally see true peace, even if the problems of running a colony may persist far past themselves.

Pokemon FireRed (Switch) - Thoughts

 Pokemon's 30th anniversary passed on by, giving us the remakes of the original two games that started it all to play on our switches, and giving me a chance to experience Kanto again in a retro style, given all the advancements that pokemon had experiences, especially in the past Decade. And how was it?

It was fantastic. It is certainly not something we should go back to, but as a look back at the roots, Pokemon FireRed is one of the perfect ways the series could be looked at, like a time capsule of the past to experience time and again.

Team -

GreenAcres the Venusaur
Kinnikuman the Primeape
Mimien the Mr. Mime
Sunshine the Flareon (Once again proving Flareon can hold it's own alongside it's evolutionary cousins)
Neptune the Lapras
Thor the Zapdos

Super Mario Odyssey (Switch) - Review

 I love the idea of this game, that Mario failed in his initial effort to save the Princess, and now has to travel the world chasing after Bowser to put right what once went wrong and finally put Bowser in his place with this current scheme, and especially given the new mechanics of this game given with Cappy, your new companion for the game, it really does add a lot of movement to the game and helps add to the already wide variety of moves that Mario has at his disposal.

I think my only problem is that the game is FAR too expansive for a normal player, and I mean that in terms of I set myself a goal to get just to the Wedding and stop, no content from the Moon in this review, and I still nearly got Nearly 300 Moons, with almost 600 still to get.

While I am a bit niffed at that number, I still find it hilarious that the Moon count is 999.

Moon Count: 275

Whose Line Hoedown - Reality TV

 Can someone explain something to me, something super important to know,
Why is Reality TV such a hit for so many, and I'm counting even the oldest shows,
You're telling me that Star Trek gets two seasons, or that Firefly barely got one,
and yet Survivor gets nearly 40 without a second thought?

Donkey Kong (NES) - Review

 The opening title of two franchises that have spanned over 40 years, both beginning as mortal foes, and changing after so many years, developing their own stories and characters, both beginning as Mario (Jumpman), the Carpenter trying to stop the Rampaging Donkey Kong from running away with his at the time Girlfriend (And future Mayor of New Donk City) Pauline, using nothing more but ingenuity and his jump to trick the Gorilla into a situation to knock him out and save the fair maiden.


40 Years, and this is where it all began.

Whose Line Hoedown - Roads

 A New driver on the road, Following the letter to the petal,
He doesn’t notice much besides what’s in his view and mirrors,
When he got in trouble, he almost slammed his foot to the metal,
When he was accused of cutting off another driver who couldn’t be much clearer!
