Oh and future Cage Match ideas:
Sly 3: Band of Thieves vs Mass Effect 2: Both games about recruiting a team of specialists to prepare for a final mission
Bloodstained vs Bloodborne: Because I still get these confused if I randomly hear them and I say this as a huge fan of both
Alien vs Predator Arcade versus Marvel vs Capcom: The name of this one just makes me laugh
Stage Select
Wind Waker Title Theme- The first time I played the game I let the title screen just play out.
Pokemon XY Bicycle Theme- I could do a top five list for this Stage Select that's nothing but Pokemon bicycle themes and be completely satisfied. I don't know how, but each game Game Freak captures the sense of freedom and fun of riding your bike new places as a kid. Honorable mentions go to Let's Go Pikachu/Eevee and Omega Ruby/Alpha Sapphires's
Cage Match:
The two would be evenly drawn, Michaelangelo and Donatello would get tired beating up Homer who can take a beating, Raphael would get annoyed by Bart until he'd threaten him causing Bart to skateboard away, and Leonardo would cut up Marge's vacuum bag, making her run to get a new one and Lisa's jump rope, making her cry. Seeing her family in trouble, Maggie then takes out the gun she shot Mr Burns with to finish off the turtles. Simpsons win.
I just rewatched all of Community and the show just lends itself so well to binging and revisiting it. Theres a lot of fun things like how Britta is still full of shit in seasons 1 and 2, but no one realized it back then
I definitely prefer this to 3 for being a pure sidescroller without those weird Mode 7 levels. Though I prefer Metal Slug to Contra, I still enjoy these games
I prefer the SNES to the Genesis, but I'd give the edge to Sega for the mini versions. It has more stinkers overall and doesn't quite hit the SNES' peaks, but theres still more good games on there than Nintendo has an I'm not a fan of every SNES Classic game either.
Not a fan of those head to head videos. Love the idea but those two guys keep interrupting the reviews with some really unfunny jokes and gags.
John Morris is Quincy Morris' son
This is my favorite of the classic Castlevania games. I also love that it ties into Bram Stoker's Dracula
Stage Select:
3. Not buying Donkey Kong Jungle Beat (GC) with the bongos for $3- Since this game will never get a proper rerelease
2. Playing Mass Effect Andromeda- My face is tired
1. Playing Assassin's Creed 3 for 8 hours straight- I saw that I would get more money if I traded it in before Black Friday. I needed to see how the series would end Desmond's arc even though I hated that character because I spent 5 games with the guy. And after enduring the game's awful missions, buggy world, and unsatisfying mechanics, Connor's story ends with him sharing a beer with a villain in the middle of the woods before stabbing him and Desmond's given a moral choice in a series that has never had them before then the character picks to let the villain win for you.
Cage Match: X-Com, because many people beat Horizon with no issues but no one beats X-Com on their first save file. Or can ever see a 95% statistic without getting triggered ever again.
I'm fine with the items breaking in New Horizons because it made crafting more integral to the early parts of the game, but I think the game is too slow to give you the permanent ones that never break. If around two weeks of playing in you can start getting ways for crafting manuals for these golden items, I'd be more okay with it.
Just letting you know if you ever get a 360, XB1 or Series X, Radiant Silvergun is on all three thanks to 360 BC.
