It's funny how when moving up the systems by date, I also move up on how much I like them. I never owned a Genesis, but I got to play it a lot as a kid between going to friends and family members' homes. It was always a good time. So here's my top 10 Genesis games, some are multiplatform, but I played these on the Genesis so that's what matters.

Okay, now onto a system I have a ton of nostalgia for. The Gameboy was the first system I never owned and is one of the reasons I love portable gaming so much. I'm going to stick to the GB/GBC from here as the GBA was so good it deserves its own list. But here's my favorite Gameboy games.

So with the Retron 5 coming....eventually, I thought I'd do a few blogs on my favorite games for each system it supports. For the others I'm going to be doing top 10 lists, but I'll be honest, there's not much I like a whole lot on the NES. I get its place in history, my problem was I started with SNES, which I think is better in every way. There's a few games I haven't played and I'd probably enjoy, but as is, I'm just doing a top 5 for the system or else I'll have to be reaching.

Yeah, I have so little self control I already bought Pokemon X so I could replay. I would say these games are like crack, but at least that has rehab. What the hell does Pokemon have? Anyways, here's my team.

I wanted to write something on why exactly I hate the game Beyond so much. In a year I wasn't reviewing games it would easily be on my list of worst games that year, but now that I'm playing some real shit year round, I'm not even sure if it will make my bottom five. Yet in the same way I thought Assassin's Creed 3 represented everything wrong with AAA video games, Beyond: Two Souls does so in a different way. And let me be clear: The low interactivity has nothing to do with it. Ace Attorney became one of my favorite series this year and save Miles Edgeworth (which ironically is one of the weaker entries), they have even less interactivity than Beyond. Yet they are still infinitely better games than Beyond.

So I got a PS4 and have been playing what little free time I have this weekend playing the hell out of it. Right now, I'm really enjoying the new hardware. The interface is a huge leap above the PS3's, giving the speed when transferring from games to menus that I get from my 360. It feels really nice to pause the game, go to the actual main menu, and go back right to where I was in the game.

I'm pretty excited for my PS4 on Friday and with it I'm taking a gamble with Killzone, a series I normally hate, yet is making changes to the campaign that could win me over, and Skylanders, my safe bet. Having jumped on last year when I saw a good deal on Giants, I promised myself I would not get too far down this rabbit hole. Despite a collection of 11 Skylanders, I still like to think that as I have only spent more than $5 on one of these guys. So here's my Skylanders before I get Swap Force (and inevitably more swap figures because that's way too cool a gimmick for me to only limit myself to 2).
