Arguably the 9 most important games in my life.

Haven’t finished the game but at least I was able to unlock these before the server shutdown. Now I can take my time and get the Infamous 2 Platinum later on.

I’m constantly blown away with how beautiful Ghost of Yōtei is. So incredible throughout.

Bit of a fun/creepy glitch in Halo Campaign Evolved I encountered.

Apologies if this information is out there but is the HUD permanently like this or is there an option to have a more simplified layout similar to the original? Maybe it doesn’t feel so busy when playing but at least in this screenshot inventory items seem like it’s all much more in your face.

I would have played my Switch 2 more if Donkey Kong 64 was on NSO.

By the way, Grant. DK64 and Banjo got me the great honor of being a top 100 listener on Apple Music. Hope you have a wonderful holiday season filled with joy and nog 🍻

I’m not trying to be mean but when 80% of the screen is covered with ads I’m gonna just close the article and move on. I get it, the ads keep the lights on but more often than not I find myself skimming the headline and moving on. Even when it’s an article like this that genuinely seems interesting.

Good to see my guy, Art The Clown, getting some much deserved representation out there on Fortnite.

The art style and music is Silksong is absolutely perfect. It’s what made me love Hollow Knight. Couldn’t be happier with how this game has turned out so far. @teamcherry.bsky.social killed it yet again.

After all these years I’m finally playing Silksong. Loving it so far.

Donkey Kong Bananza: What a game. Will it replace Donkey Kong 64 as my favorite game of all time? No way. However it is so refreshing to have yet another incredible 3D game from Nintendo. I get so tired of 2D games so I usually skip over them. This is the first must have game on the Switch 2.

This weekend I met Spider-Man. Technically I didn’t pay for this photo (ran into him on the escalator) but @yurilowenthal was kind enough to humor me and chat with me anyways. Out of every iteration, Yuri is my favorite, he’s my Spider-Man. I was initially really annoyed someone would photobomb…

Another highlight from this weekend was meeting the one and only Troy Baker. His work as Joel in The Last of Us was the first time I can recall a game making me cry; his performance is a large part of why the game worked so well and why they made a show after it. Troy is such a thoughtful…

Once again I had the pleasure of meeting and chatting with @grantkirkhope.bsky.social, the man responsible for creating the music for Banjo-Kazooie, Donkey Kong 64, Yooka-Laylee, Goldeneye, and so much more. He’s also the voice of Donkey Kong in DK64. One of my favorite people in the video game…

My top 5 most played games for 2024 out of the 34 I played. I try my best to balance new games and also tackling my backlog then occasionally revisit a favorite.

I vaguely remember seeing the play on a high school trip and enjoyed it but wasn’t going to rush out to see the film. Ended up getting an invite and absolutely loved it. They nailed this and now I can’t wait for Part II. This film deserves all the hype. #Wicked

A much less exciting list is my top songs. Most of them are just from the season one Mr. Robot soundtrack I would frequently play while working. Still though, my top song is no surprise. So happy to have Linkin Park back.

Some great artists here. I’d like to see more on here but I don’t get to listen to music as much as I’d love to these days. Special shoutout to @grantkirkhope.bsky.social. He must have released a new DK64 record this year 😉🤘

I’m not a playlists person, I’ve always been one to start an album instead. I love soundtrack music for work so it’s not surprising to see some of my favorites sprinkled in here. From Zero would be higher up if it hadn’t just released a couple weeks ago 🤘

Astro Bot: This is far and away one of the most creative games I’ve played since Super Mario Odyssey. I loved every second of this one and it’s definitely one of my favorite games this year.

Star Wars Outlaws: The most okay-ist Star Wars game l've played. No huge complaints but also not something I would rush to recommend. I enjoyed my time with it enough (except those card games) and will likely revisit when a new story DLC drops. Go check out Jedi Fallen Order instead.

Astro’s Playroom: this came included with the PS5 and has since had additional updates so I’ve gone back to get my 100%. This is such a high quality example of what video games can be and has me so excited for the next game dropping tomorrow. PlayStation’s Mario is a heavy hitter for sure.

Crash Bandicoot Warped: This is the entry I have the most found memories of, I played this for countless hours as a kid which makes sense as it’s by far the easiest of the originally trilogy. If I ever revisit one of the old Crash games again, it’ll be this one.

Crash Bandicoot 2 Cortex Strikes Back: A significant improvement from the first game and the introduction of the purple crystals and the sliding mechanic. Again, the Relic time trials are the bane of my existence and won’t ever try and get them all.

Crash Bandicoot: I found out I never actually beat the original growing up, I barely played it at all. I mostly played 2 and 3 and that makes so much sense because this first game is infuriating. Time Trials are the worst part of this game and the few I did complete were beyond frustrating.

The Order: 1886: Honestly I hadn’t heard of this game until the last 6 months or so and it was always in the context of people saying it was supposed to be this huge cinematic experience from Sony and it was disappointingly short. It got brought up enough times I eventually had to give it a shot

Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled: outside of Mario Kart and Diddy Kong Racing, this is the only cart racer I’ve ever loved. I’m all about single player so having a hub world to choose each race and go through some sort of story makes me love it so much. However there’s no way I’m going to go through

Mafia: Definitive Edition: Playing as a gangster in the 1920’s/30’s was great. I loved the mission structure of this game rather than being full open world. I’ll absolutely be playing the following two games at some point down the road.

Qube 2: fun sequel with its Portal influence still on full display. Again, fun game to play between big releases and glad I experienced it. Thought it would be fun to include a photo of my copy I got from LRG as well. For rare/limited print releases I tend to keep them sealed.

Animal Well: the only reason I really checked this one out is because Dunkey published it. The fact that a single person made this entire game is mind blowing and never in a million years would I have ever found all the secrets without some sort of guide.

Ratchet & Clank: Size Matters: I missed this one as it originally came out for PSP so I was excited to check it out. There are so many frustrating moments and difficulty spikes that if I didn’t have the rewind feature, I’m not sure I would have made it through this one. Usually felt like deaths were
