Ultimate https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6vAhPeqlODg" data-time=" If we were ranking these on hype cycle alone this would be the easy #1. No game builds as much excitement pre-release than a new Smash Bros game. I dont know how to do this write up without coming off as disappointed since Im not at all, but maybe it just speaks to the strength of the games above it on this list. Maybe its also because I havent finished World of Light yet and I hear it gets even way bigger and crazier than it already is. BUT EVERYONE IS HERE! We got all the previous characters from Smash 1-4 plus a ton of new ones! Ive been a Kirby main for all of them, but this is probably the best batch of new characters in terms of ones I would like to play and Ive really taken a shine to King K Rool and all his shenanigans. We got World of Light which is a massive map full of what would have been Event Battles in previous games with spirits you can earn that can equip for stat buffs and whatnot. Theres 1300 of these things thats a lot of Nintendo history right there! Even Classic mode is individualized for each character so that you will want to check them all out. As far as single player content goes this is the most theres ever been for any fighting game Ive ever played. It really delivers on the hype that Brawl failed to deliver on with Subspace Emissary. Outside of the single player stuff its still Smash Bros. You know what that is if youve played it. Sure theres little changes here and there but the core experience is still the same. I think my nitpicks mainly come from the online because its still at the same level as it was with Brawl and Smash 4 where your options for matches are limited and the connection issues are very apparent. I have a wired connection on my Switch and while most matches are pretty good youll still get the occasional match that goes 1 frame per second in an attempt to match up the connections. Also the mode I was looking forward to playing the most, Smashdown, isnt even available to play online and neither is the tournament mode. Despite that Ill still be playing this a ton online and I even plan on flying home to Michigan in April to compete in the Michigan Masters tournament in this game and some other fighting games. Im always down for any type of match up whether its 4 player stock and all items or the dreaded 1 on 1, no items, final destination matches so hit me up. --- https://imgur.com/LhGP5E6 https://card.psnprofiles.com/2/CaptainRockman.png <cite>ninkendo posted [p:914893412] in SHINE's To...

ninkendo 12/29/18 9:44:08 PM #56:	Top 10 Favorite Games of 2018 5. God of War https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6yo2UFi6IQo" data-time=" Ive never really considered the God of War franchise to be anything but middle tier in the character action genre below the likes of Bayonetta, Devil May Cry and Ninja Gaiden. The controls never felt great but I enjoyed Kratos being a loud and angry murderer of the greek pantheon. When I saw the new one was going to a new take on the series with a much older Kratos and his son and taking place in Norse mythology instead of Greek I was intrigued. It was so different that into the leadup to the release I was unsure how the game would even play and if it was actually a reboot and not the same Kratos from those old games. What we got ended up getting was a game that mostly shed everything about those old games in favor of what to me was essentially a 3D metroid style game with Dark Souls combat. And while they tried to hide a bit in the beginning, this is definitely the same Kratos in all his glory, but now he has a boy and he cant win every fight with his fists. He sometimes needs to use WORDS and FEELINGS and PARENTING....things I have no experience with! Still it made Kratos become an actual super compelling character and I was rooting for him the whole way to overcome everything that was thrown his way. Atreus (Boy) is also a good new character save for the middle arc where hes a 10 year old with god powers and abuses it like someone in his position would. And of course they throw all the big plot twists in at the end so that youre wanting the sequel sooner rather than later The game uses a cinematic style where the camera never cuts away so you always feel like youre in the action. I think the video I provided highlights that with your first fight with Baldur early on in the game. Before that the game is very slow and plodding just going down linear areas with Boy teaching him how to be a man, then you get back home and this happens. Feels like a straight up DBZ fight once it gets going. The rest of the game goes from there opening up into an ocarina of time style hub area exploring every corner and finding upgrades that will let you progress through other areas with lots of backtracking and whatnot. Definitely the best God of War game and I wouldnt mind a few more in this style. --- https://imgur.com/LhGP5E6 https://card.psnprofiles.com/2/CaptainRockman.png <cite>ninkendo posted [p:914898422] in SHINE's To...

ninkendo 12/30/18 12:12:59 AM #58:	Top 10 Favorite Games of 2018 4. Red Dead Redemption 2 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gnp61ypETek" data-time=" RDR2 is difficult to rate. Red Dead Redemption 1 was my favorite game of all of last generation and John Marston one of my favorite protagonists. It feels almost impossible to follow up and yet Rockstar almost did it! There's no timer in the game, but I probably spent over 250 hours playing RDR2 getting 100% and then another 50 playing Red Dead Online. Rockstar created one of the biggest and most realistic games ever made and that comes with both the good and the bad. There's so many things to do and see that I never really felt bored in all my time spent with it, but just like real life you can't really skip most of it. You have to see all the animations for everything you do in their entirety. Rockstar made sure you saw their 8 years of hard work even if it sometimes sacrificed the gameplay. Your character also moves slowly and can and will bump into all the geometry and you're always going to want to keep your horse near you at all times. The story is the real gem here. It's easily the best story in any video game ever and the character arc of Arthur Morgan made me very attached to him, even at times preferring him over RDR1's version of Marston. They make that choice a bit easier just because Marston in this game is a much younger and foolish version of himself so it's easy to love Arthur instead. Every character in the gang while filled with western cliches feel like formed characters that you want to talk to and hear their opinions after every minor thing that happens in the story. I won't really get into spoilers you should really just experience this story for yourself but the story of the Dutch van der Linde game is one worth seeing. I love it even more in the epilogue as it begins to tie itself into RDR1 and begins to set that up. The thing that stopped me from putting this higher is Red Dead Online. Sure it's still in beta and I'm sure just like GTA Online it'll get much better over time, but I played it now in the beta when there's almost nothing to do there's only like 8 story missions and then you're left to just do an endless string of repeatable stranger missions and deathmatches and horse racing. I personally enjoyed the horse racing the most! --- https://imgur.com/LhGP5E6 https://card.psnprofiles.com/2/CaptainRockman.png <cite>ninkendo posted [p:914905068] in SHINE's To...

There's something about looking at a game that you know you'll be playing for dozens of hours and feeling as if though it is a daunting task, but once you get into the gameplay loop all sense of time goes away. I think I played Spider-Man and Red Dead 2's first few hours in thirty minute sessions over the course of a week where I struggled to dig into them, and by the end of my time with the games I was hitting six to eight hours a day for multiple days in a row. --- I was the final Undisputed Champion in UCA history, however Advokaiser was the Guru Champion! <cite>davidponte posted [p:914906598] in SHINE's To...

ninkendo 12/30/18 1:16:00 AM #65:	Top 10 Favorite Games of 2018 3. Monster Hunter: World https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ro6r15wzp2o" data-time=" The other game I spent about 250 hours playing! This is only the 2nd Monster Hunter I played through completely. I did it first on Tri on the Wii, but then could never get into any of the handheld iterations. The series returning to console though was able to rope me back in and I'm glad I did. Monster Hunter is almost like a fighting game where each weapon type is almost its own game each as their own complete playstyle and moveset and that's how people can play these games for 1000s of hours no problem. Me personally I picked the Great Sword back in Tri and I've never looked back. I love to tank the big monster and get that one big on it that'll break off a piece or kill it, etc. Surprisingly I ended up playing most of this game solo. All my friends I play games with said they were going to wait for the PC version while I got the PS4 version....then they never ended up getting the PC version anyway. One of the new quality of life improvements lets you summon anyone who's looking to help if you ever get in trouble so I utilized that to summon japanese ninjas to help out if I ever needed it and I had a grand old time. As I progressed I eventually became the one helping other people and I just loved it. Hunting monsters is always fun, learning their patterns and figuring out the fastest and most efficient way to do it. By the end I was playing Fashion Hunter as well and ended up looking like Big Boss with a Mega Man cat by my side. --- https://imgur.com/LhGP5E6 https://card.psnprofiles.com/2/CaptainRockman.png <cite>ninkendo posted [p:914907642] in SHINE's To...

Shoot! Slide! BUT NOW! POWER GEAR! SPEED GEAR! The new gear system in Mega Man 11 is the most significant evolution to the series since introducing the Charge shot in Mega Man 4. It fundamentally changes how these games are played for the better. The lot of the level design was built around using the gears and it was a fresh change that I really enjoyed. This is basically exactly what i needed after years of Mighty No 9s and....well just no Mega Man. When the game came out I basically stopped playing everything I was currently on and played through this game 4 or 5 times in a row over the course of a weekend working on the various challenges and trying all 4 difficulties to see the differences between them and doing a no damage run and a speed run, etc. I ended up being the 5th person to platinum the game according to TrueTrophies. I remember good B8 friend Nanis was also playing it around the same time so I was comparing notes with him too and helping him get through his playthroughs with HOT TIPZ. Capcom made a good Mega Man game (without Keiji Inafune!) and I hope we don't have to wait 8 years again before we get a Mega Man12. --- https://imgur.com/LhGP5E6 https://card.psnprofiles.com/2/CaptainRockman.png <cite>ninkendo posted [p:914908400] in SHINE's To...

ninkendo 12/30/18 1:56:12 AM #69:	Top 10 Favorite Games of 2018 1. Dragon Quest XI: Echoes of an Elusive Age https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4iTbUGItU0s" data-time=" I'll just ask you to watch Tim Rogers review the game. He can explain why DQXI is so good far better than I can. I'll just add before release I also imported the Japanese 3DS version and played that a little bit before getting the english PS4 version. I'll probably play the Switch version whenever that ends up coming out for the added content! After Dragon Quest VIII (which was the sole reason I bought a PS2 at the time) I was so excited for another DQ game that looked and played like that, but after that we got DQ9 on DS....and then DQ10 was an MMO and we never got it :( Then DQ11 was announced and that it was going to be a massive single player jrpg like 8 was and for 3 years I basically campaigned for everyone to buy all the DQ spinoffs that were getting released here to ensure we wouldn't get another DQ10 situation and somehow miss out on the game. The first 3rd of the game is like a greatest hits of Dragon Quest tropes, the 2nd 3rd of the game is like a greatest hits of Final Fantasy plot twists and then the final 3rd aka the post game it's suddenly Chrono Trigger. Honestly near the end of the main story (the 2nd 3rd) I wasn't sure if this game was going to be my #1 that first ending was a bit underwhelming, but I loved the postgame so much so much crazy shit happens and then the ending was both shocking and exactly what I was hoping for I just loved it so much. As a result I finally found the RPG that I enjoyed more than Final Fantasy VI as my favorite JRPG. Earthbound, Mother 3 and Xenoblade Chronicles all came close, but they didn't quite get there. DQXI finally got there for me. Also if you're one of those PC guys you can mod in the orchestrated music, but I've never been bothered by MIDI and I enjoyed the music just fine. --- https://imgur.com/LhGP5E6 https://card.psnprofiles.com/2/CaptainRockman.png <cite>ninkendo posted [p:914909171] in SHINE's To...

Sure it can live up to AAA games like RDR2 and GoW and all that, but in terms of "short platformer for a cheap price" it's one of the best you could play in recent years The level design is near perfect, the bosses are super fun and charming and the achievements/trophies make replaying the game even better because they ask you to play the game differently each time and it never gets old We are just a few days away from Capcom quarter finanicial report and we will finally know how Mega Man 11 did I just hope it went "as expected" or better...the last thing I want is the Mega Man series dying again, especially after Mega Man 11 was so good and showed a lot of promise for the future because it looked like they know how to make games fun now --- wololo <cite>Nanis23 posted [p:914931832] in SHINE's To...
