Yeah I think the 2nd Encore just means it has all the DLC and stuff.

My Friend Pedro hasn't even been out that long and it's already on Game Pass?  Devolver (who I also have a good relationship with), offered me a review copy, but it didn't look like my kind of game so I declined.

An RPG with 16-bit style graphics sounds great.  Dying a lot does not.

I think Vegas alway changes a lot.  Neat thing about the Grand Canyon is that photos just don't do it justice.

Oh I'm HORRIBLE at fighting games.  Heck, I had SkullGirls set on the easiest setting (called "Sleepwalk") and I still couldn't beat the last boss with many of the characters.  But I've enjoyed fighting games more recently than I did in the past.  Seriously, early 2-D fighters like Street Fighter 2, feel slow and clunky to me in comparison to the more smoother fighters of today.  But I've always found the characters in fighting games fascinating.  Whether they are goofy karate guys or tough, strong women (I have a soft spot for those), they are at least a small bit interesting.  And yeah, SkullGirls is very good for an indie game.

Yeah the characters are really cool and I was surprised how good the stories were.  I liked them anyway.  And it's neat how some of the little details tie in together.  Like the super hero show that Beowulf starred in is the same show that Peacock likes to watch on TV!

I went to Vegas about ten or so years ago.  It was interesting.  We stayed at the Excalibur and took a day trip to see the Grand Canyon.  I remember going to the M&M's Store and GameWorks Arcade and we ate at a sushi buffet and an italian buffet.  

My best friend got a NES and Super Mario Bros. about a year before I did.  Mario was neat, but it wasn't enough to get me to buy a NES, and I was perfectly happy playing Pengo on my Atari 5200.  But the next year he got Zelda and that's when I wanted a NES.  You know what impressed me the most about Zelda back then?  That you could actually save your game!

Most of the consoles I've bought weren't for one game, but for the promise of more chances to review games for it in the future.  Either that or I got the system as a present.  So I'll just list my favorite game for each console I've owned.
