Street fighter 6 (1000+ hours in and still going.....)

Finished games
Steller blade - 8/10 (Beautiful looking game with great music and decent combat system that felt great. However the story and characters were incredibly dull/ cliche with some janky level design. Regardless of the negatives the positives outweigh it and I enjoyed my time with it. It's a great game.)

NERD survivors. 7/10. 10 hours. Counting the platinum as the victory condition as there are no defined goals asides from unlocking everything.

The Bullet Heaven genre can seem to do no wrong even in it's weaker forms, the formula is just so strong. This is the most simplified, stripped back and least envolved of what I've played so far and yet it's still a ball off fun. It's main faults are the graphical style doesn't do well with a lot happening on screen and it's hard to see what's happening through effects, there is no synergy between weapons and stats devolve down to crit chance, crit chance and more crit chance when things get tough. Regardless, it's mighty fun and well made and a bit a bit refreshing from the massive amounts of mini tasks or grinding in the likes of Army of Ruin, 35 hours into that game and still chipping at random tasks for the platinum. It's a good contained Bullet Heaven, nothing more, nothing less. Can't go wrong for 5.99 with 10 hours of fun content.

Edit: Beat all 9 levels. I'd nearly knock a point for the 9th, it is so wildly difficult even with full permanent progression that it takes getting extremely lucky with RNG, if your 15 minutes in and crit chance and crit damage isn't still consecutively popping you have to quit and and start again cause there is no point in continuing. I found this to be a problem with all 3 of the last levels of each area but I'd know I'd able to get a crit build off the ground much sooner but the 3rd level of the 3rd area in particular was tuned massively wrong and all 3 final levels showcase the problem with the game shoving you down the crit chance and crit damage route without any room for another approach, feels pointless having the choice of unlocks at least when the difficulty spikes.

Finally 100%d Super Mario 3D World + Bowser’s Fury. Yeah that includes beating every level with all 5 characters!

Finished and 100% AC Origins and Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii not that long ago. Also, beat got all the base achievements for Maneater before it left Game Pass. Also finished and got all the base achievements for Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth in January and beat Tales of Graces F Remastered in February.

So far just went through the Kotors again and Star Wars Republic Cammando. Next goal is the killzone series

Beat Like a Dragon Gaiden. 26 hours. 8/10. Platinum.

Fantastic game, a concise story with a beginning middle and end and very nicely sized compared to the long meandering story's of the mainline games. This is my favourite Yakuza game easily, the combat is the best yet, the story is about 10 hours but going for the platinum has you engage with a fantastic tapestry of side content that extends that time more than double and is so much fun to grind and so rewarding. Some of the side quests were weak on the way there and often I wished I could have skipped a few and some I did and the game still feels dated in design but they seem to be in the business of refining what works instead of evolving and if it helps them keep the release schedule up, good for them, it works. The smallest map yet and it's actually a plus, it worked great and I knew where everything was without confusion, they could have easily thrown in Yokohama and had everything spread out and I respect that they didn't, this game proves the smaller the map for these games the better. Kinda ruined LAD Yakuza for me but that's not the games fault, 32 hours into that one and still on chapter 6 of 13 so doubt I'll return for closing that out but if I do I know what happens now and as much as I wanna know what happens in Hawaii and where things go... those games are far, far too long. I look forward to Pirate Yakuza when it's half price, I know I'll love it even more than this from glancing at its Platinum and I'm all in for this size with maximum goofiness.

Beat Terminator Resistance. 10 hours. 5/10. Platinum. 

Not a bad game but certainly not good and not average either, it's a 5 cause the good parts are equally weighed down by shit parts. This studio, I do believe has potential though and going from this to Robo Cop is impressive, I hope someone will give them a budget. The best part of the game, it's tension 8n stealth becomes a real problem in the second half of the game and clear balance issues become apparent, enemies just plastered everywhere and you either shoot or run cause you're going to be detected, however a change from stealth gameplay to action just when you're getting frustrated keeps it from being a severe issue. The whole thing feels like an unofficial Terminator themed Fallout 4 DLC medicore but sticky, scratches an itch of sorts, sticky enough I may do the DLC which looks higher quality and very substantial.

Currently playing Shin Megami Tensei IV. Love the Persona games so thought it was about time I gave it a go. I'm not as enamoured with it but it's still good. The combat can be randomly punishing, it can either be a cakewalk where you take no damage or you can get combo'd into oblivion depending on the abilities they use. Also the map is a bit confusing and I'm getting a bit lost and confused where I have and haven't been before lol. But the story is interesting and it's presented well.

Yeah, that was pretty shit but try Killzone Mercenaries if you haven't already, best VITA game.
