Top Games I Played in 2017

It's the end of the year, and I played a lot of games. There's gonna be some honorable mentions this time, either due to not being very far, or feeling like I'm gonna need to play more to see if it can qualify for this list or the list for next year. There's probably gonna be some obvious ones in here, but there's probably some surprises as well.

Mario & Luigi Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions Review - I don't know what to add here

     Before we start the review:

 So Mario & Luigi Superstar Saga remake got leaked like a week or 2 ahead of its release, and I decided to play it. Since the original version on GBA is one of my favorite games ever, I was pretty skeptical and worried that they would fuck it up in one way or another. Long story short, they actually didn't. The original Mario & Luigi Superstar Saga was released in 2003 for the Game Boy Advance and it's a game that's very near and dear to me, I grew up with the game, I even got it when it first released, so in regards to the remake, I think I can talk about it pretty thoroughly since I'm a big fan. Seeing as the game was a part of my childhood, I have replayed it a few times recently, so I'm making sure this isn't gonna be full of nostalgia. (Also, I didn't care enough about the Bowser's Minions mode in the game, so I'm not covering it here) Okay, now for the actual thing.

Talking About: My Most Anticipated Games For 2017 So Far

I dunno why but all of a sudden I feel like writing this. I think that's a good thing though, since I haven't written anything in a long while (3 months...). But I might as well write about games I'm excited for in 2017. There's a few games, so I can probably go into detail into them. Probably a better idea than just making them a long series of tweets. So far in 2017 there haven't been many new games. that I've been interested in. Most of them I just don't care about. Although a few stick out like Yakuza 0, and Tekken 7, that especially I've been playing a lot.  So much damn Tekken man. The game is really good, and I'm still learning it. I've most;y been playing a lot of older games. So anyway, I might as well start it off then. Probably not in any order, but I'll just list them.

[R18] My Dear Maid Ero Manga Review - Maybe the Best Maid

Always wanted to do a review for an Ero manga, so I figured I'd give it a shot. I've wanted to do reviews in general but I couldn't decide what to do first, either a game or an ero manga. So obviously I'm tackling this first. The first game review will happen later. It shouldn't be too hard.

Top Games I Played in 2016

It's the end of the year and I played a lot of games this year. There's probably too many to list, and some I haven't played enough of to make it on my list, like I'm enjoying Shin Megami Tensei IV FINAL, but I'm still pretty early, (about level 25 and on my way to Shinjuku.) So I won't include it even though I really wanna, but  I'd rather dedicate a whole post to the game. Other games like Valkyrie Drive and other games, I just haven't spent time playing. Now onto the actual list.

Talking About: Youkai Watch - A Bunch of Things

I've been a fan of Youkai Watch for a while, but I didn't start watching the anime intensively until about this week or last week. I already liked it, dude "Gera Gera Pō" is a awesome opening song. And now I'm enjoying it way more than before. Watching the Japanese version since the Canadian dub is unavailable on Netflix (fuck you Disney) but I love the Japanese version. My buddy and I even ended up staying up all night earlier this week because we were watching about 10 episodes straight.

Talking About: Shin Megami Tensei - Feels More Obscure in the West Than it Actually Does

I finished Devil Survivor and the bonus dungeon in Soul Hackers recently and it's got me thinking about Shin Megami Tensei in general. I've only played a few games, Soul Hackers, Devil Survivor, SMT Nocturne, SMTIV and Persona 4 I guess counts. It's only 4/5 SMT games so far but still, the 4 games I've played are pretty great. And I plan to buy more SMT games like Digital Devil Saga 1 & 2 but anyway. Point is, despite all these games being released here, the series feels more unknown that it really does. People are obviously aware of SMT thanks to stuff like Persona and the crossover Tokyo Mirage Sessions FE (because it was SMTxFE before) so yeah, people know of it but feels like no one plays the games
