MrSmartGuy 01/02/21 2:10:03 AM #93:	#96 - Sonic Adventure 2 Battle (Gamecube, 2002) This was actually the first Sonic game I ever played. Since I grew up solely with Nintendo, I kinda grew up thinking negatively of Sonic because of all the anti-Nintendo commercials they ran in the 90's. I didn't want to outright buy it; I decided I'd just rent it to see if it was any good. I fell in love with it instantly. I especially loved the emerald missions with Knuckles and Rouge. I feel like I played their stages an actual thousand times. And the Chao really pulled at my heartstrings. Fun fact: I decided to rent this for five days. When it came time to bring it back, I just sat in the Chao Kindergarten room and listened to the little kid voices sing a song and I actually cried. I fucking cried to SA2B because of the god damn Chao. I was 15! Not my proudest moment. All this said, I have since downloaded it on 360 and coughDolphincough and boy oh boy is this game actually awful. It doesn't handle well. The boss fights are barely programmed. The camera fights you every step of the way. I can't play this game anymore. It's nigh unplayable. But when I did play it, I rolled around at the speed of sound. I had places to go and had to follow my rainbow. However, I can't stick around, I do have to keep moving on. What lies ahead, you ask? Well, only one way to find out! #95 - FTL: Faster Than Light (PC, 2012) Ah, this game does. FTL is a game I would wager I have booted up at least 6 of the last 7 years. It never gets old. I'd like to say no two runs never feel the same, as with most roguelikes, but I do tend to get stuck trying to go for the same stuff every time, and I kinda have a schedule to uphold. Gotta make sure I have 2 levels of shields by the second area, some new weapon or drone by the third, and then shore up with whatever I manage to find from there. Burst Laser II and Halberd Beam are OP, always buy. Giant alien spiders are never worth it. Etc, etc. You would think with all the similarities between runs, it would get old, but nah. Trying to micro-manage everything during the space battles is ALWAYS fun. Sending a group of 4 Mantises into a weapons room and wiping a ship from the inside is always super satisfying. When you get a run where everything constantly goes right and you end up with a ridiculous build, there's rarely a more gratifying experience in gaming. --- Xbox GT/PSN name/Nintendo ID: TatteredUniform http://www.scuffletown.org/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/tRBE1.gif <cite>MrSmartGuy posted [p:949012074] in The Board ...
