Literally as boring of a game as you possibly can be pretty much. All this to say I spent like a good hour and a half on one level. Had my fill forever. Yeah it’s calming or satisfying or whatever but it fails as a video game. Maybe if you want to play something to cure your insomnia. Shocked by the good press that this got.

Didn’t get the hype for this one. Uninteresting gameplay.
2020
This was just downright really bad

I really adored this game's gameplay, story, and artstyle. I had such a damn blast with this. It has not aged a day and still looks and plays like it could've came out today. How funny is it that it would be way better than all the trash the series has produced for the last decade? But yeah highly recommend that you play this. 4.5 ★

Man I really disliked this game lol. Powered my way through it but the flaws were glaring to me and I like it less and less especially after how much I enjoyed S/V. Painfully bad story, characters, and cutscenes. It's not a dumpster fire, but it's just not good. I really found the gameplay to be quite boring too overall. 1.5 ★

Very fun Pokemon game and much better to me than Sword and Shield. A ton of people have been having all kinds of crashing and visual bugs which obviously sucks, but in my 60+ hours I had only one crash and just bad pop in at certain points. Nothing to hinder my gameplay at all really. But yeah its a really solid experience and I would recommend it as the story and characters this time around are more enjoyable. This time the game is fully open world and you can do the story in no set order. I really enjoyed the turn based combat this time around and I don't know if the gameplay improved or if I have developed more of a liking for turn-based combat. I love the traversal this time around, continuing the evolution from Pokemon Legends: Arceus. There are some baffling steps back though from that game for some reason. For example the indicators for what pokemon is a shiny and the dodge move. I would say though there aren't any really steps forward for this game in particular outside of the fully open world. I really enjoyed the NPC pokemon battles and the three main varities of story so it doesn't just boil down to go to gym and beat leader. This game had really good writing at parts as well. The ending was definitely my favorite part of the story and I won't spoil the big twists. Yeah give this a shot as maybe the bugs and glitches might be slightly overblown, and beneath that is a great game. 4 ★

This one sucks as a game and doesn’t hold a candle to nearly every other game in the series. Never gonna play it again.
2021
Gorgeous game that's great for when you just want to turn your brain off and enjoy driving tons of cars throughout Mexico. Racing is pretty fun too.
2019
Top 3 hardest games I’ve ever played. Very simple yet addictive gameplay as you try to reach to the top. It’s insanely brutal difficulty puts this one way down for me. I got really into it for a good amount of time, but I ended my journey near the end. Like it’s just not a great game because there’s nothing to it outside of it being a very hard and wonky to control pixel platformer. I’ve had my fill and don’t think I’m gonna go through that stress to beat this.

I did not click with this at all. I found the game monotonous and unengaging for the most part and did not come away with my hours played really finding it memorable or really all that enjoyable. The characters and animations are charming and the game has wacky moments, but it's not enough to save a just ok PS2 platformer. In the era when these kind of games were all over the place, it stands out nowadays for only its style personally. Didn't hate it or anything, nothing in the game was offensively bad. Just very middling overall. I'm disappointed because I adore Sucker Punch's work and love 3D platformers as a genre. It has been a few months and maybe I didn't really give it a fair shake, but I don't think slogging along to beat the game would do my impressions of it any favor. 2 ★

No doubt the best the series has to offer in terms of content (and more still on the way), I just don't love it mechanic and gameplay wise compared to Mario Kart Wii. It's way too hectic in online races and it just feels like RNG is prioritized compared to a sense of skill. It's a coin toss when your perfect frontrunning race will result in you getting last because you got green shelled last second. Glad they fixed the meta where you don't just see Waluigi Wiggler bike combos only. Speaking of bikes what happened to them after Mario Kart Wii? They're not fun to use at all and control badly. I just don't find myself playing MK8 Deluxe too much. Battle mode slaps though. This game looks phenomenal and the soundtrack is loaded with bops too. This objectively IS the best Mario Kart and no doubt is for many, many people. But I'll take playing MK Wii any day of the week. 3.5 ★

One of the GOATS of gaming, and it's also one of my all-time favorites as well.
2016
Great game and a return to form for the series, it’s only flaw is that it’s not at the level of Eternal.
Don't get the hype or praise at all. Not fun to play whatsoever, not even really a pretty game or great as a way to see landmarks across the world. It's great as a tool for aspiring pilots, but that means nothing to my enjoyment of this.
