I never gave the combat a second thought. I felt it fine. Nothing amazing, but nothing that took me from the narrative. I’ve not even touched American Nightmare. But my God did I have a blast in this game. Weird part is, bought it launch day and I’m a giant vagina so I was scared at the start and stopped playing 😋 

 

But I managed to stop being afraid of games over the years and completed it in 2019 on Steam. Was sad it only took like 15 hours, but is what it is. Great game. 

 

It's also not a particularly scary game. :p

Mad love for anyone who didn’t forget about Alan Wake and Heavy Rain!!!!!

I didn't forget about them as they're a couple of my favorite games of the decade, but I already cheated and listed 15 games instead of 10 and they didn't quite make it.

In no Order after #1

 1. Breath of the Wild... warts and all still the most absorbing game I played

 

Halo Reach/ Master Chief Collection... Reach is still the best Halo, the impending defeat is unavoidable...great representation of the covenant..Master Chief collection is there cause its too good a package to dismiss

 

Assassins Creed Black Flag...   enough assassins vs templar goodness while allowing the player to enjoy the time period...the blessed shanties

 

Smash Bros. Ultimate...   Ridley, Banjo plus everyone else! this is the all content product nintendo should do for all its older franchises (kart, golf, tennis)

 

Arkham City, Origins, Knight... As a Batman junkie these kept me well fed...I want another just to see the next evolution of the predator system (just replace the Harley Quinn voice actor)

 

Animal Crossing New Leaf...  My favorite Animal Crossing, my home and town still look amazing!!! ...my daughter is a shitty mayor though

 

Mario Kart 8... bests kart DS as best Mario Kart game.. the graphics, balance and amount of tracks is perfect (roster not so much but koopalings is a win)

 

Ghost Recon Future Soldier...  After the Blackhawk Down-ish Graw games the series finally evolved past the recycled ghost recon 2 gameplay...a good campaign even if slightly linear, the animations and maneuverability of the ghosts was great....specially in MP

 

Gta V... played through the campaign about 4 different times now.. the missions arent as "repetitive" as in the old days and do a great job in building up to the heists...just let me kill Michaels family PLEASE!

 

Super Mario 3D Land... Great mario 3DS platformer, the concept was great here and really did not need to be expanded onto the WiiU

 

Forza Horizon 3... This should soon belong to Forza 4 once I put some time into it

 

Toy Story 3.. Toy Box mode, also Toy Box mode split-screen... my young daughter loved it, great times

 

Ghost Recon Wildlands... Open world Ghost Recon that played out like a season of Narcos? sure..sign me up.. plus the 4 v 4 MP was a great tense way to get into a tactical battle

 

 

 

 

Biggest Regret?   Still not a Sony player so I missed out on Spiderman..

i still have to play through AM2R, and Return of Samus... hopefully they are both worthy of gheir lineage.... so many metroid-ish games i havent played

Actually, I should put AM2R on my list because I've somehow played through that game four times already which is super rare for me. It's actually up there with my favorite Metroid games easily. It's a lovely game especially after all the patching they ended up doing post-release. If you're a fan of Metroid, definitely play that game.

i just may.... been binging a ton of metroid nostalgia between the gametrailers retrospectives and the awesome Geek Critique videos...

i know, i has the original download...

i just gotta find the time to really dig in and immerse in it.. u only get 1 first playthrough of these things..

 

getting old and being an adult sucks at times

If you end up playing it, make sure you're patching it up to date. There have been a lot of changes after the original release, positive ones.

I'm going to amend my list and say that the Shadow of the Colossus remake deserves a spot.  I'm playing it for the first time and I'm completely floored.  It's probably the most beautiful and best sounding game I've played on my PS4.  I also got The Last Guardian during the recent sale and will start that after I finish Shadow.  I don't know why it's taken me this long to play these games, as it turns out they are a complete bullseye for my sensibilities.

My current second playthrough, from scratch I should add, of Sekiro is making me change my tune drastically. Apparently it took my entire first playthrough to actually learn the combat, and all the nuances in general, well enough to have fun and fully appreciate the game but well, right now this is an entirely different, and very very enjoyable, experience. 

 

Also, its art direction might be some of my favorite of all time I will say. I often stop and just admire the backgrounds and atmosphere. Senpou Temple/Mt. Kongo has to be one of the most gorgeous "levels" of any video game I've seen. 

 

Edit: Between God Of War, Death Stranding and Sekiro, I'm really enjoying playing with HDR on with my new TV. I still don't understand fully what it actually does but appears to make colors more vivid and "realistic"?
