I only really remember Brutal Bastion

extremely satisfying slingshot mechanics

only played SOTN (previously played Rondo on PC Engine)

while I prefer the linear experience, the magnificence of the level design can’t be argued

bought on sale for £3.19, what a bargain

I’ve completed the showcase and both myrise stories, the presentation and storytelling in both is fantastic

I won’t be starting my Universe until after the first DLC to make sure it doesn’t corrupt the save data, this isn’t my first rodeo

at the time many mocked the bullet time mechanics, little did they know that 20 years later few if any have done it better

a nothing season and my interest is waning

fantastic handling and sense of speed, a true arcade racer

a devolved soils game with none of the charm and all of the mainstream junk

abandoned after a couple of hours

SEGAs answer to the vastly superior Robocop arcade machine

more of an expansion, but crank the difficulty up to maximum and the mechanics are still super satisfying

that double jump mechanic is fucking brutal

tremedous game to close out the year

allround significantly more polished and coherent than BAYONETTA 3

the series remains ridiculously satisying

im deducting a star for the constant server issues and definitely not becuase they keep nerfing my beloved reef-lux

thats my story and im sticking to it
