Pokemon Ash Gray (beta 4.5.3) This game is one I wish had more content :/
Pokemon Shiny Gold Girlyman - It has been a long time, but I don't think this version supports that? I think Gold X improves upon that.
Pokemon Emerald By scrolling up the page, and clicking "Click Here to Submit a Review for this Game".

Borderlands 3

Third Time Is the Charm - Borderlands 3
Full disclosure, I probably should not be the person who writes a Borderlands 3 review.

For one, I never liked Borderlands, Borderlands 2, or Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel. It's not that I dislike fun, but typically, first-person shooters are not my jam. And games that rely on multiplayer components in order to have maximal fun are also not my jam.

One of the big exceptions to this rule was Overwatch, as you can see in my review of it, here.

So what made me decide to give Borderlands 3 a shot, if I already went in, expecting not to like the game? Well, it's really quite simple, it had a steelbook, and I am a steelbook whore, who will buy any game with a steelbook. My best friend also really wanted me to pick it up and we needed a new multiplayer game to play, since he was getting tired of Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.

Borderlands 3 is the fourth game in the illustrious Borderlands series (we're not counting Tales from the Borderlands, and it won't even be referenced in this review), and in my opinion, it's the best, by far. The game starts like traditional Borderlands games do, but it's once you get into the meat of the game that it really separates itself.

I'm giving the game a 7, because while the game is technically great to look at, there's some nagging problems that keep me from giving it the 9 I really want to give it.

I wasn't sure where to put this, but the game suffers from frame rate drops like nothing else I've ever played. While the game does a fantastic job of rendering millions of things happening on screen most of the time, it's these odd moments where there's less action, but more set pieces being loaded in the background that keep it from being a nearly ideal experience on the eyes.

The animations in the game are pretty subpar, but you never buy a Borderlands game for the excellent animations. You are just happy if things don't clip int... Read the rest of this Review
NieR: Automata

Glory to Mankind - Nier: Automata
I know. Nier: Automata came out in 2017. It is not a new game. It's not even old enough to be a retro review. It's just a relatively recent game that has slipped by the wayside.

If you can believe it, I was planning on going my entire life without having played this game. I'm not a big fan of games like Nier: Automata in general, just because they seem to not respect the player's time enough.

So what changed my mind? Several years of SGDQ/AGDQ. Seeing gamers like halfcoordinated play this game made me think "maybe, just maybe, this game will be accessible enough to be worth playing".

And in a sense, I was right. Nier: Automata stands on its own as an interesting game, with relatively innovative structure that holds up a dynamic story telling experience, fraught with twists and turns. Better yet, it only cost me 10 dollars because I'm a cheapskate.

So what makes Nier good? [s]2B's butt[/s] Primarily it's the fact it's an action RPG that doesn't go into the extremes of grinding. And where it does, they make it easy to skip past it with smart chip using.

The graphics for me are where I have to most penalize Nier. A game should not look like this in 2017. With the game having been in development for almost three full years, they had time to touch up things graphically, and make the game attractive.

Let's run down a list of problems, graphically. The ruins are uninteresting, and complete copy paste jobs of the other ruins in the game, right down to the cracks in the walls in most places. None of the buildings have any individual character (which may be the point, but we also do see an amusement park, which would seem to indicate that the humans of this "earth" had some sense of personality), and there's jagged edges everywhere, which are immersion breaking.

The textures do not look good in most places, and it doesn't really feel like I'm in a unique worl... Read the rest of this Review
Overwatch: Origins Edition

Overwatch - The Game of the Decade?
Overwatch for me represents the first time I've legitimately wanted to review a first-person shooter, and not just any first-person shooter, but one that only has a multiplayer component. That is to say there is [u]NO SINGLE-PLAYER CAMPAIGN[/u]. This is odd for me, because as the anti-social person I am, I never want to play online. When asked, I usually dodge the question and say I have other things to do.

I don't have other things to do. I'm just not fond of online games.

With Overwatch however, something is very different. It doesn't feel unapproachable. Something you could pick up one random Saturday afternoon, play a few hours, and be good enough to competently help your team push a payload or win a defense map.

And the thing is? That's exactly how I got into Overwatch. My buddy had been pestering me all summer to pick up the game, and finally, one day, the price dropped to 35 dollars. Deciding I couldn't wait anymore, I picked it up, and found myself in love. My first game was played with D.Va. I liked her ability to be versatile. She was a tank (I hate tanks! Another preconception dashed!) who could fly from point to point, had a defense ability that could reflect bullets, making her perfect for blocking so many ultimates, and best of all, she was a cute asian girl in a mech.

The first matches were rough as I adjusted to her play style, but in the next few matches, I found myself doing crazy things like this. To the uninitated, what I did was I surveyed the scene (I saw an enemy Roadhogg, Genji, Mercy, and Pharah in particular) and adjusted on the fly. My first reaction was to get behind cover, and to find something with a roof, so Pharah wouldn't have as much power. Getting under the roof, I activate my defense matrix, mostly out of reflex in case an enemy was already there. Seeing no one, I move forward to block the enemy advance. Roadhogg launches his hook which is basically a death sentence, as there's no gettin... Read the rest of this Review
WWE 2K17
01-29-17 05:34 PM
Welcome to Suplex City - The Same Move Over and Over and Over
I hadn't originally planned on purchasing WWE 2k17, I had seen it in promotional videos and advertisements, and it looked exactly the same as 2k16 (which looked exactly the same as 2k15, and played like it too), and it's hard to justify spending 60 dollars for a roster update. Unlike other sports games in that time frame, WWE games just don't evolve, which is a real shame.

In NBA 2k17, they constantly add new features and possibilities, and expand their MyCareer mode, which makes the 60 dollar purchase worthwhile (which is why I purchased it). MLB the Show? In every installment, they add one or two things that make it worth a day one buy. This year, they plan on adding a retro mode, changing up who is in the booth, and adding more presentation (in a meaningful way for once). That's just scratching the surface, as we've yet to hear them talk about grass tech, player personalities, or the legends in the game. Regardless, it's a day one buy because it innovates.

You can go on and on, but every successful sports game comes with that key word, innovation, and it is something the WWE series has lacked for a long time (the last time I can say a WWE game was truly goo was back before Take Two started working on the games for it).

So why did I buy it?

It was on sale, and I couldn't really resist. For thirty bucks, I thought, we'll take another chance. Surely there had to be some improvements, right? In some ways, yes, but in others, no. Gone are the Showcase mode, that gives you a concrete story to follow, but in its place are actual MyCareer advancements, a better Universe mode, a decent first-try promo system, and more fluid gameplay. It seems to be a net positive on the surface, but the lack of a showcase mode makes me a bit sad, as it would have been fun to follow cover athlete Brock Lesnar's career.

Assassin's Creed: Revelations

Assassins Creed Revelations - Not a Good Review, Ezio
Assassins Creed Revelations represents kind of a negative in the series, if I'm being honest. The last game in the Ezio trilogy (2 and Brotherhood being the others) has a lot of points where it shines, such as in its storytelling, and connecting 2 to 3 (same with Brotherhood), but it also has a lot of shortcomings, in how lazily it is presented, and how rushed the whole game feels.

You do not get any out of Animus scenes, as Desmond is in a coma throughout the game, and we get very little insight into more of Desmond's character development. This game is primarily about Ezio, and what he hopes to accomplish.

So where does AC:R fit, within the scale? Is it as great, for example, as 2, which to this point is the clear gold standard for the series? Or is it as repetitive as the first game, without the fallback excuse of "it's the first game in the series"?

Graphics - 7

Same shit, different day. The game brings very little to the series graphically, as the same old models seem recycled, with the exception of Ezio's, which seems a bit smaller? Would make sense, since he's supposed to have aged, dramatically. There are a few visually pleasing set pieces, but you are unlikely to really be paying attention on them, so it's kind of wasted effort.

But where this game fails is that they don't try anything truly new. Most things seem straight copy pasted, and as such, a lot of this review could be copy pasted from someone's Brotherhood review.

So why a 7? The game does a great job of recreating things, as they usually do. The churches and citadels in the game (based off real-world places) are extremely accurate, as far as I can tell, and a lot of care is taken in these things that history buffs will appreciate.

Sound - 7

Much like with the graphics, the game just hasn't changed, so there's no incentive to really give any points out here. The music tracks kind of run together, and feels so mu... Read the rest of this Review
