NEW VIDEO ALERT!
Sheepo was a fantastic, short Metroidvania that took me by complete surprise! Check out my no commentary, full playthrough, 100% with all collectables video!

The discourse around Fallout 4 being a bad game, and a bad place for new fans to start, needs to stop.
Fallout 4 is a fantastic game. Is Fallout New Vegas better? I would say so yes, but that doesn't make 4 suddenly a bad game.
Let people enjoy things.
UNDERRATED GAMES WE DON'T TALK ABOUT ENOUGH:
Sleeping Dogs (2012)
I am STUNNED that this was released 11 years ago, and it still holds up in 2023. It's one of my favourite games, and one that I'd pick over the tired GTA franchise any day of the week.
Any Sleeping Dogs fans?

Beautiful. As a fellow Tourettes sufferer/someone who struggles with tics in public, this was moving to watch. He is massively, massively loved by all ๐

2023 - The Legend of Zelda Tears of the Kingdom
@NintendoAmerica
How the heck has it been a full year already? Simply put - it's my favourite, and the best, game that I've ever played.
It's just a masterpiece.
Where does TOTK rank for you?
Can someone explain to me why so many people are RAGING at Star Wars Outlaws needing an Internet connection to be installed?
You're using the Internet to complain about it on Twitter, an app that you use 25 hours a day, 8 days a week.
It's 2024. Why is this a problem?
UNDERRATED GAMES WE DON'T TALK ABOUT ENOUGH
Condemned: Criminal Origins
The graphics, animations, enemy behavior, and unnerving sounds make this easily one of the most immersive and atmospheric horror games I've ever played, which is sadly rarely mentioned as one of the greats.
Twitter strikes again.
Weirdos getting upset, saying TMNT 2018 is amazing and that I'm a *insert insult here*.
I literally didn't say a word about the quality of the show. People are fucking idiots.

Mirrors Edge (2008)
15 YEARS OLD! WTF! Mirror's Edgeย is a parkour game like no other, and arguably the best example of the niche genre we've ever seen, inspiring many other games to incorporate the style.
Any Mirror's Edge fans here?
UNDERRATED GAMES WE DON'T TALK ABOUT ENOUGH:
Titanfall 2 (2016)
One of the best FPS games you've probably never played, sandwiched between 2016's Call of Duty and Battlefield releases. One of the best campaigns the genre has ever seen, and fantastic multiplayer, with the added

@SquareEnix
released Final Fantasy VI on the Super Nintendo!
Where does this one rank for you across all of the Final Fantasy games?
UNDERRATED GAMES WE DON'T TALK ABOUT ENOUGH:
Alice Madness Returns (2011)
One of my favourites! Another game that holds up in 2023 despite dropping 12 years ago - madness returns was a major surprise for me! Great combat and platforming in a twisted world!
Any fans out there?

The Outer Worlds - 2019
One of the best games in the RPGFPS genre, The Outer Worlds was essentially Fallout in space before Starfield did it 4 years later.
Great companions with their own fun questlines and relationships, gorgeous
UNDERRATED GAMES WE DON'T TALK ABOUT ENOUGH
Dantes Inferno (2010)
I can not say enough about this game. It is criminally underrated and underappreciated. The game's amazing story is loosely based on Inferno, the first canticle of Dante Alighieri's Divine Comedy and featured
ON THIS DAY IN GAMING HISTORY
The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past - 1992 (NA/EU)
Possibly the most important game of my entire life. Link to the Past is for me the best top down Zelda game ever made, inspiring 100s if not 1000s of future games.
Where does it rank for you?
Happy 40th Birthday NES!
The first console I owned as a kid and my first exposure to The Legend of Zelda series... such a special console!
What's your favourite NES game?
UNDERRATED GAMES WE DON'T TALK ABOUT ENOUGH:
Sunset Overdrive (2014)
Silly third person action, traversal mechanics similar to Tony Hawkโs Pro Skater, irreverent and goofy sense of humor, lots of fourth wall breaking moments...
I loved this game! Anyone else?
BONUS ON THIS DAY IN GAMING HISTORY
The Legend of Zelda The Wind Waker - 2003
One of the best Zelda games ever made turns 21 years old! I'd give anything for a proper remake of this on the Nintendo Switch!

Maneater - 2020
I don't know about you, but I've not played many games that are more fun than Maneater. You're a shark. You grow. You become a mega shark. You eat people. You blow stuff up.
It shouldn't be good. It isn't. It's GREAT.

PS Vita (2012)

Jade Empire (2005)
One of the best RPG's ever made that rarely gets mentioned, despite being developed by the masters of the RPG - Bioware. Its a crime we didn't get a follow up to this one!
Any fans of Jade Empire out there?
The tribalism between PlayStation and Xbox players is at an all time high because of this recent Xbox news (or lack thereof)
Maybe it's just my age speaking, but I can't understand why people give their lives to one plastic box or the other.
Its mental hospital behaviour. Sony

Brutal Legend (2009)
Visceral combat in an open world set somewhere between Lord of the Rings and Spinal Tap. Jack Black, cover bands, demons intent on enslaving humanity and Heavy Metal, this game ROCKED ๐ค
Any fans out there?
I think I'm done with Dragons Dogma 2.
Not because it's a bad game, quite the contrary, but I'm just not getting hooked by it.
It isn't a game I'm desperate to play. It is VERY good and pulls off some fantastic ideas, but the main questline isn't grabbing me at all and the
2023 is absoluteltly wild.
You tell a joke. Somebody doesn't like it and kicks off. You point out it was a joke. They claim you're only saying that because you got called out or found out.
What a terrible time it is to be alive, where you literally can not speak without it

Jade Empire - 2005
I can't believe those underrated GEM came out nearly 20 years ago. Still one of the best RPGs I've played, I'd give anything for a remaster or a full on remake.
Fantastic game. Have you played Jade Empire?

Castlevania Symphony of the Night - 1997
Metroidvania games are what I'm all about, and SOTN is still the greatest of all time. I'd love a modern remake of this, true to the OG, just with a lick of paint.

Any Darkness fans?
Good to see 95% of the comments here are positive, and most of the people who disagree have done so politely, not been dicks, and have had a good chat about it while being respectful.
This is how social media should be used.

Just wanted to take a moment to say thank you to everyone who takes the time to interact with me on here.
I love nothing more than talking video games with you lot, whether we agree on things or not, it's always a pleasure.
Hope everyone has a great weekend ๐
