Now's a good time to mention something I find fascinating. There was a Filmation cartoon called Blackstar, basically proto He-Man if you will. That didn't get a toy line until 1983/84, somewhere around that time. By that point, the cartoon had already stopped production.

Not exactly the same font but it comes close

Well, 43 hours according to the in game timer, but still, its a massive time sink.

Finished Lego City Undercover (the PC version I should note)

Definitely one of the best Lego games. Had a great time throughout.

Finished Mega Man 11

Loved it, probably the best in the Classic series since MM6. It felt like a natural progression of MM8 in the gameplay department, well, minus not being able to use the Mega Buster and the special weapon at the same time. I do appreciate the Rush Coil and Rush Jet being mapped

5. Duke Nukem 3D

Since the game turn 30 today, figured I'd gush about this game. Ranks up there as among my FPS games from the 90s for a reason, ranging from the weapons to the crude humor to the interactivity of the environments.

I'm going for it anyways

4. Mega Man 6

My favorite in the classic series, especially since it introduces Rush Armor. The NES era really went out with a bang.

Finished Mega Man 10

I quite like this one a lot, a bit more than MM9. While I take issue with Mega Man still not having slide or charge shots, the stages are a bit more fair this time around, some really cool ones too (like Strike Man or Wool Man's stages for example). Also has some fun bosses

Finished Mega Man 9

Good game overall. Had some great themes, some of the best special weapons in the series, and some cool bosses, including the first female robot master, which I hope to see in Dual Override. However, I want to know why they thought it was a bright ass idea to get ride of slide

3. Lego Star Wars: The Complete Saga

The Lego Star Wars games were childhood favorites of mine, but this one I especially love. My favorite Lego game in general by far. It also played a huge part in really getting me into Star Wars.

2. Klonoa: Door to Phantomile

One of my favorite 2D platformers. Great story, soundtrack, and presentation.

1. Unreal Tournament

I love this game so much. My favorite arena shooter, which seems to be an endangered species these days.

QTP with a game you would instantly buy if it got remastered/remade!

I might write a short blurb about each game as well.

Finished Mega Man 8

Its fine. I feel like it truly excels in its soundtrack and presentation, plus it introduces Duo. I do love you can use the special weapons and the Mega Buster at the same time, quite handy really. I'm guessing the game is easier to make up for the lack of E-Tanks.

Alright
January 15, 2026 at 9:40 PM
ok

Finished Lego Star Wars III

Haven't played this one in a long time so this was a nice revisit. This only adapts the first 2 seasons of The Clone Wars animated series (as well as the movie), and since the first 2 seasons were more episodic, they were able to get away with scattering the episodes
