A game that provides awesomely fun mechanics to build almost anything you can think of, which you can then use to bypass all the monotonous shit that isn't fun, which is everything else in the game.

I literally bought this game just to watch the Red Letter Media commentary for Demon Wind, but I kept playing it because it was pretty darn funny. Then for some reason I kept playing it after it became pretty darn grating and pretty darn repetitive.

Hogwarts Legacy is a really fun a
game about a fascinating protagonist named Sebastian Sallow but it's dragged down by a glitch that causes the camera to always follow some random boring ass loser.

I don't know what people are talking about, this game felt like doing work I don't get paid for. They replaced all of the stuff that makes these games fun with tedious combat, I had to force myself to keep playing this because I paid full price for it.

I've seen a lot of these shovelware classic "collections" before where you open the game to a list of 200 pieces of shit. Atari 50 is a whole other animal. It's more like a documentary about the history of the video game industry with a focus on Atari, but sometimes you can play the game the documentary is talking about. Really awesome.

I hope they never make any more Mario Kart games because I simply do not have the time or energy to get as good at another game as I am at this, the greatest video game ever made.

I will never forgive this game for giving me Casey Jones only after I played the entire thing and thus completely lost interest.

Goddamn Nintendo can there maybe be a setting where Mario doesn't hang his head in shame after getting 2 over par? My 4 year old is a tad young for me to tell him to "git gud".

This game holds the world record for fastest time from a kid excitedly yelling "I did it!" to that same kid crying.

I just played through this game for the 4th time. Once on my own to finish the story, once with my daughter telling me what to do, once helping my daughter play through it, and once helping my son play through it after it became his favorite game and we 100%ed it at his insistence. It may well be the most perfect Mario game ever made.

'Stray' basically fell apart for me the instant you got a little robot who translated dialogue for you like you're a person. Much more fun when you're just a cat solving puzzles like a cat, before you just become a regular human protagonist in the shape of a cat.
