MegaMan52 | 2,443 Posted September 14, 2021 Share Posted September 14, 2021 (edited) This wasn't on my list, and I've beaten the American version many times, but I beat the Japanese version of Luigi's Mansion because today is the GameCube's 20th Anniversary (in Japan, anyway): Didn't quite get a Rank A Mansion, but I did get Rank B.

I just need to keep repeating that phrase and start a new game. Honestly? Play it now. There's a multiplayer aspect that you'll likely miss out on otherwise. Similar to Dark Souls' invasions; it's incredibly fun and there's plenty people playing right now. Who knows, in a year or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Californication | 1,477 Posted September 19, 2021 Share Posted September 19, 2021 (edited) Fcking Plok is a bastard. Made it to Rockyfella though, once I beat him just 8 more levels to go. Edit: So I got to Rockyfella with 8 lives. Got down to the last life and figured out how to beat him. Thinking I could beat him using one life next time. And I made it to the last area.

DoctorEncore | 3,691 Posted September 20, 2021 Share Posted September 20, 2021 (edited) Finished up Psychonauts 2 yesterday, another non-backlog game, and it was fantastic. It's easily a 9/10 for me and probably my game of the year. It has some of the best writing, character development, level design, and atmosphere of any game I've ever played. It explores some really interesting topics and gives all the characters meaningful backstories. When you enter their minds, you delve into their past traumas in really sensitive and smart ways. It's also just a beautiful game with amazing art direction. If you liked the original game, you will love the sequel. If you didn't like the original, you will probably still love the sequel. It improves on every aspect of the first game and it just an absolute joy to play. I really wish there was more story and environment to explore and I'm already hoping for a Psychonauts 3. I highly recommend you add this game to your 2022 backlog list. So what's next? I'm back on list for Streets of Rage 4 which seems like it will be short and sweet. First impression is that it looks and plays great, although movement feels a bit slow to me. I think it's also just tough to be a side scrolling brawler in 2021. I'll say a little more after I finish my playthrough (normal difficulty). I'm still working on The Ascent, Mario 64, and It Takes Two, all of which were not on my list. I also want to start Horizon Zero Dawn since I'm finally ready for another big open world game and Sony just dropped a 60fps patch for the PS5 version. For October, I'm thinking it's time to get in on some spooky games, so maybe RE2 Remake and/or Dead Space.

ScaryD | 237 Posted September 21, 2021 Share Posted September 21, 2021 Finally got through Breath of Fire II. Feels longer than the original game. Terrible translation but not a bad game overall. Trying to figure out what to play next in the backlog. I might go after Paper Mario but at some point in October have to complete a mandatory run of Super Castlevania IV or Castlevania for Halloween. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abelardo | 154 Posted September 21, 2021 Share Posted September 21, 2021 A few days ago I put down the Switch for now and began playing Bravely Default, I'm about 6 hours in and my initial fears that the game was going to be a cringefest of RPG clichés disappeared after an hour or two, still a little juvenile for my taste but it's alright, nice game so far.

monkeybut625 | 39 Posted September 22, 2021 Share Posted September 22, 2021 (edited) Not on the backlog, but I finally finished the platinum for Dragon Quest XI, which I have been working on and off on since it came out….that’s 180 hours of my life I will never get back and I don’t know if it was worth it Edited September 22, 2021 by monkeybut625 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Webhead123 | 675 Posted September 22, 2021 Share Posted September 22, 2021 Hey, all! Yeah, sorry I've been kinda MIA for a while. Bought and moved into a new house earlier this year and it's been a whirlwind. But I'm trying to get back on-track with this backlog challenge. I've made several attempts to get through Duck Tales...but for a Disney Afternoon NES game (and a game I never really played back in the day), it's friggin' tough! I can get through about 3 stages or so and then I just run out of lives. Gonna keep trying but I'm not sure I'll make it through this one. I have been making progress through God of War...but that (and all other plans for game-time on the PS4) has slowed to a crawl, as the PS4 has now been moved into my son's room. Made a few passes at Shinobi III. What a great game. I always get to the airship stage but haven't made it past that yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, don't get me wrong, they are great games...just not my favorite in the series by a long shot. For me, it's: 1) ALttP 2) BotW 3) Awakening 4) The Original 5) OoA/OoS Depending on what mood I'm in on a given day, I'll swap the positions of BotW and Awakening. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You do you, Jeeves! I will say this though...I'm not a terribly big fan of the "open-world" genre but I think that's because most of them end up feeling soulless and empty. BotW is a game that managed to "get it right" for me. The way it encourages the player to explore and discover is absolutely noteworthy. It really is a genius design. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
