Ape Escape

Really impressive graphically, amazing soundtrack, brimming with personality and fun gameplay. The controls take some getting used to, but are excellent once you do. I especially love the apes all having little bios and different personalities.

Hades

The only roguelike to ever grab me so far. The art is stellar, and the story is rich and well told. Excellent music. The combat's nice and snappy, and the varied boons and weapon aspects keep everything fresh.

Very glad to now have a sequel I can sink my teeth into!

I played this on emulator, you can get achievements through linking a RetroAchievements account before your playthrough!
Beware though, the achievement sets here can be a real step up from official stuff!

Metal Gear Solid Δ: Snake Eater

A very safe, very well done remake.
Though I have minor criticisms, it greatly exceeded my expectations. The game looks much better in motion than in screenshots.
It's still Snake Eater, so it's still excellent!

Looney Tunes: Sheep Raider

An excellent little puzzle platformer that perfectly captures the Looney Tunes aesthetic. Some of the levels are real head-scratchers! The soundtrack is crazy, insane quality for a game like this. Would be flawless, if not for Gossamer and black holes.

Crash Boom Bang

A Mario Party type Crash spinoff that's ultimately just okay at worst: definitely not as awful as comments online would have you believe. It can be fun once you get a feel for it! I really like being able to dress up your character of choice in different outfits.

Toree Saturn

The best $7.50AUD I've ever spent. An excellent few hours of platforming with awesome movement that's speedy and technical, as well as an absolutely banger soundtrack.
Definitely a step up from the previous entries, and in my opinion, Siactro's best game yet. Toree is very cute.

Drag X Drive: Global Jam

It's neat! The movement works well and the games can get intense, it's pretty fun! Going off this demo though, I don't really think there's enough to it to justify the price...

Death Stranding 2: On The Beach

An excellent sequel that again delivers a compelling and emotionally resonant narrative - though this time, it does stumble a bit towards the end.

There's less friction in gameplay than I'd have liked (even on Brutal), but it's still a damn good time. I loved it.

Crash Twinsanity [replay]

Horribly buggy, famously unfinished, with okay gameplay at best, but I like it for its strong identity: the tone/humour is still the series' best, the acapella soundtrack is all bangers, the concept art is striking... I like to think about it more than I like to play it.

Rayman 2: The Great Escape (DC ver.) [replay]

A cozy platformer with excellent art direction, a delightful soundtrack, and some really cool set pieces that are thankfully good enough to carry the whole experience, as the actual gameplay is pretty simple.

I miss the era of infinite Rayman 2 ports.

DOOM (2016)

Very glad to have finally gotten around to this.
The best FPS I've played yet: fights are fast, brutal, and satisfying. Every weapon is great, all the demons are fun to go up against. I enjoyed exploring the maps and scouring for secrets and upgrades a lot. I really like the lore too!

Hollow Knight [replay]

A huge map that's fun to explore, challenging souls-like combat and bosses, lovely art, beautiful OST, charming characters, interesting lore: and there's just so much of it all... what a wonderful game.

Got all the Steam achievements over two runs, can't wait for Silksong!

Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain [replay]

Story light & awkwardly paced for a Metal Gear, but I do like the plot & the sentiment behind the ending.
Though sometimes unpolished, the game plays well & the main missions are a lot of fun.
I especially love the amount of customization available.

Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes [replay]

Likely the darkest & most political Metal Gear story: I love the tonal whiplash of this following Peace Walker.
The endlessly replayable Camp Omega map & missions combined with limited gear options makes for a tough but rewarding arcade stealth experience.

Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance (+DLC) [replay]

An absolute joy to revisit.
Really fun combat, the blade mode & zandatsu mechanics still kick ass, though the camera is pretty rough. Awesome vocal themes. Behind the memes, the story, theming, & characters are on par with some of Metal Gear's best.

Castlevania: Symphony of the Night (PSX ver.)

Exceeded my high expectations.
Some of the most beautiful pixel art I've ever seen, a magnificent soundtrack & legendary script/VA. Alucard feels great to play, exploring the castle stays engaging & challenging throughout. It feels massive for the time.
