Well as you progress in the games story you build up your friendships with each character from the Anime/Manga and you unlock little scenes with each of them so it acts as a great way to fill time between the epic battles. As for flaws, of course the graphics for the enviroments and buildings are dated as fuck but that's Koei Tecmo for you. Also two or three titans can be a bit overpowered unless you have the right support characters but in contrast the controls are really unique and you end feeling with the hd rumble that are controlling this crazy tech from the Anime. Also the game can get hard and you end feeling like you are doomed, which makes as that's the way the Anime is. I also got to like characters more through the game than I did in the 2nd season of the Anime.

by no means a bad game, i've just enjoyed it far more than i thought i would: assassin's creed origins.

i'm currently playing it. enjoying it way more than any other assassin's creed game i've played. it's a beautiful game with tons to do, and plenty of variety in tasks. i highly recommend it to anyone who's never played or enjoyed an assassin's creed game before.

I did not expect to enjoy Implosion much at all. Mobile phone games have such a bad rap but this game is exceptional.

Like Implosion for me, sometimes people buy you a gift and you try it out. My gf bought Implosion for me while I was at work (she wanted to surprise me) and since I cannot return it (stupid Nintendo policy), I decided to give it a try and it surprised me with its excellence.

Also, I have tried games like Katamari at my friend's house (a game I was sure was not for me) and enjoyed it. I mean, sometimes, we should at least try games that are outside our norm.

Red Dead Redemption 2. Never played the first one, I'm not a fan of Rockstar in general but I'm playing it cause my brother wanted to get through the story together and I'm enjoying it so far. There's a lot of little things I don't like but the character, story and gun-slinging is a real fun time.

A few that come to mind:

Plants vs Zombies
Pixeljunk Monsters
Mario + Rabbids
Katamari Damacy
Axiom Verge
Ico
Heroes of Might and Magic 2
Mike Tyson's Punch Out!!

mass effect. I got it from my brother along with a 360 and gta4 I thought I would hate it became my favorite game series last gen

Journey

I just bought because it was cheap and everybody was saying that it was brilliant, but it didn't look like my cup of tea. loved it.

Celeste. When I first saw it, I was like "Oh, another overhyped retro indie platformer," and put it out of my mind. Fast forward to this summer, and I heard a couple bangers from the soundtrack in someone's Fortnite video. I then figured, hey it's cheap, so I'll give it a shot. Turns out, this game really stands out in the vibe it gives off, and it's not really jumping on the throwback train nearly as much as I thought. The artstyle is very cute and squishy, the story is very heartwarming, the gameplay is hard, but addicting, and that soundtrack... Holy hell, I might've nominated this game for GOTY based on soundtrack alone if I could (and no, it's not that chiptune-heavy).

But yeah, more than 80 hours in, and I've been having a blast. The game's physics are so fun to work with that I've even started to learn speedrunning this game and getting golden strawberries. I'm shocked at how much time I put in, considering I had enough of the NES revival by the time Megaman 10 rolled around, but this game found a way to get to me.

I had played through The Walking Dead Season 1 and wasn't super impressed. Then I for whatever reason tried out Life Is Strange, another game where making decisions and seeing how they affect the game is a central part, and kinda expected to like it as much as The Walking Dead at the very best. But after chapter 1 I was in love, which says a lot about the game as games with a huge focus on story and dialogue often fail to hook me.

Another one I did my best to not even like was Final Fantasy XII. I had really gotten into the series and here comes the next entry, and it's...*barf*...different. The gameplay wasn't the same, the characters looked stupid. Then I played it and, well, really enjoyed it. Not even the Gambit system and having the AI control your party members could convince me to hate on it.
