Lies of P 10/10
I'm basically a Soulslike noob and how long it took me to beat that shows as much, but dang if this wasn't challenging and rewarding to beat. I opted to face the final fight and that took me many, many attempts and I got it with just a sliver of health left, so satisfying to beat the game.

Super Mario Bros. 2

Online
8/10
As my trip down side scrolling Mario lane continues, I find myself wrapping Super Mario Bros 2 feeling quite good like I have in the past. However I did notice some more annoyances this playthrough than the previous ones, even with save states, some of the platforming feels a little loose and a bit slippery and some of the levels feel a bit confusing figuring out where to go or what to do next. Granted this game was pretty much a cut/paste from Doki Doki Panic so it’s arguably not really an original Mario title outside of the characters and music, which to note is still as stellar as the original Mario Bros. And the boss music is pretty intense too. Overall it still holds up pretty well for the most part over 35 years later. Next stop, one of the best. Super Mario Bros. 3!

Virtua Fighter 5: Ultimate Showdown (PS4)
Hosting the videogame room at Evillecon this weekend, and ran a Street Fighter 6 tournament. We also had Tekken 8 running in the open gaming section. People also got a lot of play out of Jojo All Star Battle, Skullgirls 2nd Encore, and Guilty Gear (which none of these should be a surprise at an anime convention).
I did put Virtua Fighter 5 Ultimate Showdown running on my PS4 a couple times. The first time, someone saw it and started playing it right away, exclaiming "Virtua Fighter" in a satisfied voice.
The second time I set it up, another person saw it as they entered the room, and said "Look, Virtua Fighter!" Then the philistine who was getting ready to play on the system immediately went to the main menu and loaded Guilty Gear instead.
As closing time for the room approached, I saw the system was free, and most of the rest of the staff was also in the room, so I popped Virtua Fighter 5 Ultimate Showdown on one more time, plugged in an arcade stick and began playing. With difficulty set to Normal, I managed to get through all 8 stages and beat Dural in best 2 of 3 matches.
It's been a long time since I played any Virtua Fighter, and even longer since I got a legitimate 1cc on standard difficulty on any Virtua Fighter game (I think I've only done it once before).
Pai's moveset was more than sufficient to get through every battle I had to face.
But I did not have to face JEFFRY MCWILD in my run through the game this time.

Based on my post in this thread from June 5, 2021, it's been nearly 3 years. Apparently I played as Pai for that run too.
Here is a picture of Jeffry McWild from the credits sequence. He's saved us all.

I beat Night in the Woods last night, and I'm gonna miss it. Obviously not a very hard game by any means, but it still took me a few months because I'd play off-and-on. It's really more of a story, there's very little in the way of true game play necessary for the plot other than walking around the main character's town, but somehow it works. The character work is great... some of the most relatable little anthropomorphic animals you'll ever meet. Super existential and it does make one think about life, surprisingly enough.
If I had one single criticism, it's that the game's ending feels like a natural spot for it to open up. In that, if it were a longer/larger game made by a bigger group of devs, I feel like the game would have been at least doubled once they introduce what ended up being the game's big reveal. Instead, it just sort of reveals what's been happening in the most ambiguous way and then ends. But still super charming, and given what came before that ending, I can't pretend like I'm upset that it was left so open-ended.
Good stuff, I'd like to find others like it.

My friend and I finished Sonic Superstars on
My biggest complaints with it were how the co-op doesn't feel like real co-op, and the final boss was lame. I'm okay with boss fights that go through multiple phases, but having to start from phase one after each death isn't fun. I can't even say there was a big feeling of accomplishment once I had landed the final blow, it was more like "I'm just glad that's finally over and we can start playing something else now." Once we beat him it unlocked a whole new story as a new character, except that one is not playable in co-op, so I'm not interested.

Evil West
via 
What a throwback to the seventh generation. To back up, you play as Jesse Rentier, a vampire hunter working for his father's hunting organization. His father is also the secretary of war. After killing a prominent vampire, the vampire's daughter rows revenge and unleashes a plot to take over the country. Needless to say, Jesse must stop her.
Jesse has a gauntlet infused with electricity that can be upgraded for some pretty cool moves. Add in effective melee, a flamethrower, shotgun, grenade, bow, chain gun and pistol, and Jesse is a force to be reckoned with. Each weapon can be upgraded multiple times, and some, like the pistol and bow, can gain electrical abilities too. The highlight of the game is definitely the combat. It starts basic, almost too basic, but by halfway through the game, it becomes so fun to chain melee with guns and the electricity. New moves and perks are constantly being added to Jesse's repertoire, and combat becomes a ballet of bullets and blood. Most of the enemy design is really good, with some standard designs too. Bosses are varied, though it uses the fallback of taking minor bosses and turning them into regular enemies after their first defeat. Some of the arenas you fight in are a little small for all the enemies and flash that happens, but with enough dodging and effectively utilizing each weapons' cooldowns, it's entirely manageable. You may have picked up on the term "arenas" that I used. While this is a heavily story-driven game, this is also where the throwback to the seventh gen is most apparent.
Linear is the most apt word to use to describe "Evil West." Jesse is on a set path, with maybe a small deviation for an item here and there, and he can never go back. These paths are narrow and devoid of enemies, and each path leads directly to a wide open, usually circular section where enemies are strictly fought. Often times the enemies are visible either in the arena, or around the arena because the devs didn't hide them properly (more of this later). Invisible walls are everywhere. Those said enemies, even in gun range, have force fields around them and don't even react to your attack unless you're in the arena. It takes a lot of mystery out of the game, despite the excellent art direction and atmosphere. Beyond a few, extremely easy puzzles, this makes the game predicable, and it doesn't matter how much fun the combat is if the game continually shows its hand. Jesse can only traverse the environment by way of set objects as well. Waist high barrier? Only the shimmering chain can be hurdled to move on. Same with vertical chains, wood barriers and everything else. If there isn't a shimmering silver object, Jesse can't interact or move on from it.
The presentation as a whole is really good. I mentioned the art direction and atmosphere already, but the graphics are very good as is the performance (probably better on PS5 and Series X). The writing is solid and the voice actors do a good job. If the game world design didn't give it away, it's clear this is a lower budget game, because key scenes are either voiced over or described on a loading screen. Seams in the game world let white light in. Textures might not load in the far distance. Towards the end, I had an entire cutscene out of sync with the audio. Nothing game breaking by any means. Though, after beating the game, there's New Game Plus and that's it.
'Evil West' is a focused throwback to a couple of generations ago, and while it's nothing surprising, it is a hell of a good time. I highly recommend this for any action game fan.
Dreams - Art's Dream via
As a palette cleanser, I decided to boot up 'Dreams' for the first time. It almost goes without saying that the variety of stuff on offer inside the game is mind blowing. What people can achieve with the same, relatively simple tools and have it be so much different to the point that it doesn't look like two games were made with 'Dreams' is astounding. I didn't make anything myself, and haven't messed with the VR projects yet, but the afternoon I did spend tooling around in what has been created was impressive.
'Art's Dream' is kind of like the official campaign of 'Dreams.' Art was shown at the first reveal, and this game acts as both a single-player story and tutorial of sorts. It's also the only Media Molecule produced 'Dreams' project that has trophies in the base game. Art left his band some time ago amidst struggling with his potential failure. His dream visualizes what he had and has been going through. It's very well made, extremely well acted, and fun. I'd say it's worth getting 'Dreams' just for this. It's not very long, I beat it in one sitting, maybe two hours, but excellent!
Dreams - Ancient Dangers: A Bat's Tale via
'Ancient Dangers' is technically a DLC campaign by Media Molecule, and is the only other project with trophies. It plays like an even more kid's version of 'Torchlight,' and is also short, maybe a couple of hours, but is also worth it. 'Ancient Dangers' is free, and was already within the game when I booted it up.
Often times 'Dreams' is on sale for $10, and it's more than worthy of the purchase price. Yes, creatives will get way more out of 'Dreams' than just players, but there's a ton of great stuff to play. I really wish Sony hadn't cancelled the PS5 port and release this on PC, because 'Dreams' might live on for a decade or more if so. But instead, Media Molecule migrated it to different servers and stopped active support last year. Everything is still available to play with and share, but whatever isn't downloaded once the servers shut down (whenever that might be), will just be gone.

Short but sweet. Community levels are being uploaded constantly. Maybe I'll revisit it months down the line and play custom levels, but for now I'm done with it.
@DCGX
I still need to play Dreams one of these days. It's a damn shame it wasn't brought to PS5 or (especially) PC. This feels like it could've been kept alive by the community for many, many years. I will check it out for the VR stuff at some point, but I was always impressed with what I saw the community doing with it. There's a thread I have bookmarked on NeoGAF but as the posts are years old I have no idea if the stuff in it is still on the servers now.

I was already enjoying the game, but the dark-ish turn it took at the end was really good. I feel like this could have made a good kids movie. I may go for the platinum, turns out I missed maybe 11 or 12 trophies that don't look like they'd be difficult to get.

Adventures in the Magic Kingdom by Capcom.
Certainly not the highlight of the Capcom + Disney legacy.
The two platforming levels (Haunted Mansion and Pirates of the Carribean) are both pretty awful and unfair, there's a significant amount of blind luck with the Big Thunder Mountain railroad stage, the Autopia stage is fine except for the retracting bridges at the end that are pretty much guaranteed to get one of your lives the first time since you won't know about them, Space Mountain is one long QTE before those became the thing, and the walk around and answer obscure Disney trivia questions fetch quest is easy but dull.

I think this one is going on my available list. I used to really like the variety as a kid, but a collection of 5 bad one-off minigames doesn't really grab my interest so much anymore.

That game was hard as hell, right? I remember the pirates level. Awful.

Metal: Hellsinger on
This felt like the most boomerest of boomer shooters, with the most badass soundtrack your ears will have the pleasure of hearing. I like the whole rhythm/shooter mechanic and I'll be on board if they pump out a sequel. Final boss fight was pretty cool. Not only was it down to one little piece of health between the two of us, so basically sudden death, but there was added pressure because right when the battle started I had gotten the low battery warning from my controller ('tis the life of a PS5 gamer mirite?)
The game is so short though, clocking in at barely 5 hours for the story (there's more stuff to do but I'm not going to bother, the credits have rolled and now so will I). And while it is pretty cool feeling the controller rumble along to the music, that really zaps the battery life, so it comes at a cost.
This is currently in the PS+ Extra Game Catalog, so give it a chance.
Overall I rate this six hundred and sixty six sign of the horns emojis out of ten.

And while it is pretty cool feeling the controller rumble along to the music, that really zaps the battery life, so it comes at a cost.
This is currently in the PS+ Extra Game Catalog, so give it a chance.
Overall I rate this six hundred and sixty six sign of the horns emojis out of ten.
