Adventures of Lolo
1989
It's a decent puzzle game, but there are way too many unfair deaths and softlock opportunities for how few lives it gives you. Definitely a game to play with save states or NSO rewinding. As a competent puzzle title, it's better than 90% of all other NES games, but still not quite anything worth sticking around for. Worth a try if you're curious.
My friends and I would play a single, unending match for hours because none of us understood how to pin each other
But we would still play all the time because it was so much stupid fun

Sonic the Hedgehog

I don't get Sonic games.
Like, I get that there used to be this element of "whoa look how fast this Blast Processing is!", but even in the 90s, I never got any enjoyment out of running to the right as fast as possible while a handful of superficial, pointless loops try to make the experience look cool.
Style over substance.

Medal of Honor
1999
So Boom Blox is a direct sequel to this, right?
Pac-Man Vs.
2003
A novel gameplay mechanic that was super fun on the rare occasions that you got three friends to play with you while also possessing a GBA and link cable.
How did this get ported to the Switch and NOT the Wii U?!? The Gamepad would have made this game so much more accessible to people.

Getting a strike on 91 pins makes you feel like a living god
Hey You, Pikachu!
1998
Barely a game. Barely even functional. Definitely one of the more severe cases of buyer's remorse that I had as a kid.
On the plus side, I used the microphone that came with it to start recording voices for Flash animation projects on my computer and custom voice packs for Worms Armageddon, so that was pretty rad. Thanks, Hey You Pikachu? I guess??

Civilization: Rampant Corruption Edition
This game is exactly as good as your co-op teammates. If you're happy together and cooperate well, you're gonna have a great time.
Portal 2
2011
It's appalling how perfect this game is.
Controls. Writing. Voice acting. Puzzle mechanics. Characters. Story. Potatoes. Lemons. It's all flawless.
No game has made me laugh harder. GLADoS, Wheatley, and Cave Johnson would all be contenders for my favorite video game characters of all time, mainly because of how flat-out hilarious they are while still being complex and intriguing.
Like the first Portal, the puzzles are still a delight to work through. It's got that kind of difficulty where it makes you feel like you outsmarted the game, when really the game's direction guided you juuuust enough to figure it out without looking it up online.
I don't know if Valve will ever learn to count to 3, but if they do, I hope Portal is higher on the priority list than Half-Life.

Lemmings Paintball
1996
The most violent thing I ever got from a Scholastic Book Fair
Monopoly Plus
2014
Weirdly, this video game based on a board game is WAY more enjoyable than the board game itself.
The Maw
2009
Sometimes Game Pass has weird stuff. Sometimes I beat that weird stuff.
This game's ending felt a lot bleaker than I think it was intended to be.

Duke Nukem II
1993
This is the best Duke Nukem game. Nothing he's done since this is as cool as flying around by pointing the flamethrower downwards at the beginning of Episode 4. PUT DUKE BACK IN 2D.
Super Tennis
1991
This is the kind of game that's fun when you're a kid until you discover that better games exist.
