Oops, almost missed this round, better write some quick justifications

RESIDENT EVIL 4
vs.
THE LEGEND OF ZELDA MAJORA’S MASK

I think Resi4 has nicer game bits mostly the combat is extremely tense, the inventory is iconic, the puzzles… exist, but the aesthetic of MM is just so powerful. It could only exist in the specific circumstances under which it was created and you can feel the pressure in it’s ever aspect

UNDERTALE
vs.
CRAZY TAXI

Crazy Taxi is fun but if every JRPG had as engaging a combat system as Undertale maybe I’d be able to finish one. Also, ya know, all the rest of it is pretty good too

CAVE STORY
vs.
TETRIS: THE ABSOLUTE: THE GRANDMASTER 2 PLUS

Maybe unfair for me to vote here since Ive only played Tetris The Grandmaster but CS is the game that taught me that games are made by people and I don’t think that will be eclipsed

RIVEN
vs.
SONIC MANIA

votin for sonic cause im a zoomer don’t @ me

I think, in future, for matchups where I have played neither game, I might just do a game store test and literally judge them by their covers. Like which one would I take out of the store based on how they present themselves. This is something I miss about buying games online where I generally research everything in depth before purchasing.

I did this with Rondo of Blood and Shiren the Wanderer since Shiren honestly intrigues me more. Like how does the ferret(?) play into things? Rondo of Blood has technically better art but Richter’s pose is a little off. I wanna fight Dracula but not as this guy.


Game Boy Camera will return…

I can see it now that you mention it. I guess it just looks to me like he should be holding something in his raised hand.

Can’t believe the offspring song about road rage isn’t in Crazy Taxi but ah, nevertheless

This rules.

How impressively split a lot of the forum is when it comes down to it.

Undertale is a good shooter.

The BotW/Third Strike one definitely does but I’m seeing a fairly even mix here?

I am 36 and I voted Undertale

Just going forward do y’all really want a NINTENDO game at the top of our list? Do you smile while gaming? Do you have a closet for your Nintendo stuff?
