I'm not doing all the optional stuff, but I'm doing as much as I can as long as I don't have to do a hard reset to get it.

1-2's about an hour longer than 3-4 based on my times, so another 500 lines isn't too unbelievable. Plus, the writing style in the first game feels different than the other games. Feels like it's more terse and there's a lot more rapid-fire back and forth between the characters.

(why would Redd confess to a capital crime?)


because he's stuck with eternal shame either way and he's a dude who's been obsessed over public image and repercussions of it for his entire career (also he'd be pretty boned because all the people who he's spent years blackmailing would no longer have a reason to fear him and could take revenge on him, a la the Phantom)

or something, I don't care that much

Mia coming back from the dead to nail the guy who killed her to silence her is great

also the quick pans after White confesses from Edgeworth hunched over his desk, unable to believe he just lost, to Phoenix with that goofy grin on his face, are just great

Yeah, I'm not sure I've seen every episode of Seinfeld either since I've never tried to watch the show in order, but I've watched tons of reruns. Same with Friends, although I'd feel more confident saying that one if I had to guess which one I'd seen every episode of since I was on that show from close to the beginning.

I'm nearly finished with season 5 of Frasier, and I still haven't encountered an episode I haven't seen yet, which surprised me. I thought there'd be at least one! I guess I watched more reruns of this show than I thought since I didn't start watching this show while it was airing until partway through.

37. Bomberman 64 (Janus5k)
bgEyUNR

Out of all the multiplayer games I've played in my life, Bomberman 64 is probably in the top ten in most time spent on them. Nearly every time my friends would come over during my teenage years, we would inevitably end up playing this game more often than not. It's just a blast (bad pun fully intended). Supposedly, the single player is really good, but I didn't spend very much time on that. This was the first Bomberman game to eschew the 2-D grid style in favor of an open 3-D style, and a lot of the multiplayer stages had areas at differing elevations and inclines to take advantage of that. Some stages even had high grass or snow that would hide where the bombs were, which was beneficial if you kicked it because the other players would have to guess where it was before it exploded. There were ten multiplayer stages in all, and nearly every one of them was fun.

Because of the new 3-D style, the multiplayer handles differently than the other Bomberman games. This version favors long-distance kicking, pumping up bombs (especially if you got the Cherry Bomb powerup, which made your explosions even bigger), and generally just being aggressive and launching bombs like crazy. As such, individual rounds usually don't last that long, and it didn't get to sudden death mode (where bombs just fall from the sky all over the field) that often. At that point, you're just trying to survive, and it was cool when multiple players managed to make it all the way to the end of the round without dying, especially since it didn't happen often. This is the kind of game I miss being able to play now that I'm an adult who almost never has people over in person to play games anymore. At the same time, it makes me glad my teenage years were during the N64 era because, while the console didn't have a huge library overall, it had one of the best collections of multiplayer games anywhere. I don't think Bomberman 64 is my favorite of them (I'd probably give the edge to Mario Kart 64), but it's right up there with the best of them.

Bonus Question: What is your favorite multiplayer N64 game?

Well, there are small pieces of dialogue that you get if you are thorough in going to every location after every event, but you'll miss them if you wait too long. If you only go where you're supposed to go next, you'll miss stuff.

you can also get locked out of dialogue choices if you do things in the wrong order

I feel like that stuff stops happening after the first game though

finally got through the investigation day though thankfully

38. Lufia II: Rise of the Sinistrals (Drakeryn)
3KcRLy9

To me, Lufia II feels like what The Legend of Zelda would be if it were a traditional JRPG (at least in terms of its dungeons), which only makes me wish that's what the Zelda series actually was. It's a really charming experience with a solid cast of characters. The story is pretty good, especially for an SNES era RPG, with a grand sense of scale and a great ending. It's got a fantastic soundtrack, particularly its battle themes. The battle system is a typical turn-based one, although it's reminiscent of Final Fantasy IX (or I suppose it'd be the other way around since Lufia II came first) in that your equipment determines what skills and abilities you have access to at any given time. I don't think it's a particularly difficult game (aside from the optional Ancient Cave, which is a 100-floor randomly generated dungeon where you can get some of the best equipment and fight the hardest bosses in the game), but the atmosphere during its biggest moments adequately compensates for that, in my opinion.

I mentioned Lufia II's dungeons at the very beginning, but the way the game handled them was really cool, especially for a SNES game. All enemies are on the screen at all times, so there are no random encounters. The enemies move in discernible patterns and only when the player moves, and there are items you can use to "stun" enemies so you can get around them. In other words, you don't have to fight regular enemies unless you want to here. Those special items are also used to interact with other objects and solve puzzles to get through dungeons. It's all pretty fun.

The story takes some interesting turns in more ways than one. The basic premise is that a race of giants (called the Sinistrals, as you may have guessed) invades the earth in an attempt to conquer it, and it's up to Maxim (the main character, as you may have guessed) and his companions to stop them. The fact that the Sinistrals are giants makes all the boss fights appropriately tense because they fill up the screen. The game also randomly briefly becomes a slice of life simulator in the middle as Maxim takes some time off to get married and have a child. No, seriously, that happens. The ending also has a twist that it pulled off really well, and I didn't see it coming until they revealed it. This is another one of those unsung games that needs more people to hype it up, so that's what I'm here for today!

Bonus Question: What is your favorite SNES RPG?

39. Assassins Creed II (Johnbobb)
jATdjD3

While I enjoyed Assassin's Creed from a gameplay perspective, I didn't think it was very strong in terms of narrative or characters. The sequel really surprised me in both of those departments. I think that's why I still like this one the best out of the trilogy. It has my favorite version of Ezio. I enjoyed his hotbloodedness and his single-minded determination to avenge his family. Understandably, he matures and mellows out with age in the sequels, but I liked his youthful impetuousness the best. One of the most memorable parts of the game is early on when he just charges into the crowd after his father and brothers are put to death and kills the man responsible. Then he turns to the crowd and yells, "The Auditore are not dead! I'm still here!" I think that was the moment that sold me on this game.

Assassin's Creed II also made a lot of gameplay improvements, most notably the dual hidden blades. They also revamped the combat system to where it was virtually impossible to die as long as you got the timing of counterattacks down. I guess that could be seen as a positive or a negative depending on who you are, but the less dying, the better, I say. The ability to use Eagle Vision in third-person was a big improvement, too, since it made navigation and tailing targets much smoother. I really liked Italy as the setting for the game, too. It looks beautiful, and the Renaissance era is a really cool time in history, so meeting fictional depictions of figures like Leonardo da Vinci and experiencing a lot of the history through Ezio's eyes was a blast. The best addition was the inclusion of Assassin's Tombs, where you essentially had to parkour through an area Uncharted-style to reach a seal at the end. I'd have done these things for no reward at all because they were so much fun.

I suppose no writeup of Assassin's Creed II would be complete without mentioning the endgame. Unfortunately, it's pretty hard to discuss it at all without delving into spoilers, so I won't spend a lot of time on it. Suffice it to say that the final stretch of this game is certifiably insane, whether it's the last boss fight or the out of nowhere wham one-liner afterward. Games that finish strong tend to leave a more favorable impression on me, and this game definitely succeeds in that department.

Bonus Question: Who is your favorite Assassin's Creed character?
