I was hoping to finish up or at least make good progress in Yakuza Kiwami 2 in May to free myself up for Bloodstained this month, but I think I played Kiwami 2 only once the whole month.
I've gotten to the point where I won't "buy" a PS+ game if it doesn't interest me, but I still never touch 90% of these games. All the same, it is annoying to miss out.
You would be right! But I bought Overcooked last year and played a bunch of it with my wife (though we did eventually reach the point where we couldn't quite get enough stars to continue). That game is definitely a ton of fun. So I just missed out on the other one...and I don't remember what it was lol
Stage Select: I have to go with the Super Nintendo. It was the video game cornerstone of my childhood. Final Fantasy VI (probably the most influential game of my formative years), Contra 3, Super Metroid, TMNT IV, Chrono Trigger, Super Mario World. I could go on and on. The hardware was powerful enough that the games could look and sound amazing. 2D games eventually did get better from a technical perspective but it took a while thanks to the advent of 3D games. The SNES was the general highwater mark for a long time. Second place, for me, is probably the GameCube, which served me well through high school and played host to my all-time favorite game: Metroid Prime. But you can't beat that childhood nostalgia.
Cage Match: I think I would like Asura's Wrath if I played it...but I HAVE played Until Dawn and really enjoyed that, so that is what I'm going with.
Cage Match possibilities:
-Gradius 3 vs Space Invaders
-Contra 3 vs Halo 3
-Sonic vs F-Zero
Your third paragraph would sound really cheesy if it was about any other game, but Super Mario Galaxy was such an undiluted distillation of joy. So few games achieve that. It was my favorite game of that generation.
I never liked Spider-Man games till they moved into 3D with that PS1 game. Spidey just doesn't work in 2D, in my opinion.
I guess it's kind of like an FPS party game...
Despite never being terribly impressed with the Borderlands games, I have somehow played all of them.
Despite my love of words, I have never been able to get into crossword puzzles
I have the 3D one for DS. I need to play that.
