I finally had some extra money to pick up some gaming related things. I'm currently playing Rune Factory 4 Special casually, and plan to cover both Soul Reaver games on my channel. Also, I'm thrilled to finish out my Zelda amiibo collection!

Game #18 Completed in 2025: Tomorrow Never Dies!
Went to just get some footage for a future video, and ended up doing the whole thing. Hadn't played this in 20 years. It's clunky as hell now, and aged even worse than GoldenEye, but still a competent third person shooter for the time.

Me and um... 20 games that have most influenced me (of course I could easily do 20 more without batting an eye).

I got this GameStop Holiday Gift Guide in the mail yesterday. I like the concept. It's nostalgic, and feels like a piece of history. The BIG problem? There are no prices for anything. Nada. I know these games exist, but you can't tell me the prices for at least Black Friday week?

How many of these horror games have you played? Which ones are your favorites? Any you've always wanted to play, but never have?

Game #16 completed in 2025: Fallout 76!
As a MMORPG, this game doesn't ever really end, but I'm considering it finished anyway. Sue me.
When I first played this upon release in 2018, I hated it. It lacked the personality that had come to define the Fallout series.

Game #15 completed in 2025: Unicorn Overlord!
I played this off-and-on for the past few months. It initially gripped me, as this strategy RPG plays a lot like Ogre Battle 64--one of my favorite games of the 90s--combined with elements from the Fire Emblem series. I was loving it.

Game #14 Completed in 2025: Silent Hill f!
Silent Hill is among my favorite franchises, and this title ranks high amongst other entries in the series. Although taking place in a new setting and time period, there is no mistaking this as anything else other than a "Silent Hill" game.

For a second I thought the kids running out of the theater in the beginning of the new Peanuts game trailer had massive holes in their heads.
I've been playing too much Silent Hill.

Today The Sims 4 turns 11 years old! Initially, this entry was built around online functionality, but late in development much of the online focus was dropped due to the negative reaction to 2013's Sim City.

Today is Mother 2/EarthBound's 31st birthday! Written and directed by acclaimed essayist Shigesato Itoi, the game is different from most RPGs by taking place in a modern setting and parodying the genre and popular culture.

Dragon Quest VII is officially 25 years-old! The game is the first DQ game to release outside of Japan since 1992's DQIV, and the last to be called Dragon Warrior. The game is most notable for its massive size, which routinely takes over 100 hours to complete even without focusing on side quests.

Mafia II released 15 years ago today! The game had been in development since 2004. It was mostly praised critically, but did garner controversy for removed content that later appeared as DLC, some DLC initially being made exclusive to the PS3, as well as the PS3 having scaled back performance.

Hey guys, I'm looking for some feedback. I've recently redone my thumbnail style to be more "modern." Unfortunately, I haven't been seeing the results in my latest videos. Could you please tell me which style appeals to you most? The old style is on the left, the new on the right. Thanks!

Game #13 Completed in 2025: Deathloop!
I was saving this for a Trash or Treasure video, but then finally decided to just play it normally. The trailers never appealed to me, and I thought I'd really dislike this, despite some of its stellar reviews. In the end, I thought it was "good," a solid 7/10
