review of
Bionic Commando: Elite Forces
@brockreiher - It most certainly was an issue with the game... or at the very least with the game cartridge I owned. Consider yourself lucky if you were able to emulate and/or play it on original hardware. Not sure how widespread the issue was, but I do recall looking it up back in the day and hearing other reports of the game freezing on others. None of my other GB, GBC, or GBA games had such an issue. Just this one.

review of
Final Fantasy VII Rebirth
Damn... I love this review. You absolutely hit the nail on the head here... if only I had others in my life who saw things this way as well. I loved the hamburger analogy... I would compare it to a movie theater experience whereupon when you leave, the person you go with will just say it was "good" or "bad" and just leave it at that. No real thought or debrief on what was just watched... just empty-headed consumerism and something to pass the time...

Final Fantasy VII Rebirth
Words cannot do this game justice... this is everything I ever wanted and more... my favorite game of all time given such treatment is special beyond words. I wish everyone could experience having their favorite piece of fiction shown such adoration and respect.
They nailed every character (major and minor), their interactions and dialogue were perfect, the world and its expanded lore magnificent, all of the mini-games, the unbelievable soundtrack, the perfect marriage of action & turn-based combat, some of the best towns in gaming history, etc. Literally everything about this game felt like such a personal and heartfelt gift to my 8-year-old self.
It made me laugh out loud on multiple occasions, smile, and cry in equal measure. They somehow struck that perfect balance that the original so brilliantly displayed between lighthearted and more serious, dark moments.
Here I sit a couple weeks after completing it, and it still takes up residence in the back of my brain. I just cannot stop thinking about it. Like, I cannot believe this game is actually real after damn near 2 decades of hoping and praying for a remake. They did it... they really did...
What I would have thought impossible to achieve only half a decade ago, they were able to realize in such an incredibly short amount of time (like how did they make this in only 3 years!?).
I love this world and these characters so, so much. FFVII is and always will remain my favorite game of all time, and this Re-trilogy is just solidifying the reason why.
A true masterpiece and easily one of my favorite games of all time. This trilogy has the potential to go down as the LOTR of videogames when the 3rd title releases in 2027. I am eagerly anticipating the conclusion to this amazing story and the catharsis that is going to come from all of the character's conclusions. I have no doubt they will deliver something extraordinary.
