#SesameStreet ABC by #RareLtd #NES 1989 Two games. Letter Go Round 🎡 is bad 👎. You're just matching letters. Ernie's Big Splash 🛁 is playable 🎮. It's a puzzle game with no skill and cool animations. But only 3 puzzles. Overall: ☆ Bad 👎

Helmet rating ⭐️ (Wearable) Uniform rating ⭐️⭐️ (Okay) IDK what to say about a charging stripe without a 🦬 on a blue helmet. Even a white or gray!! outline of one would look better. Uniform looks fine for a gray alternate. Blue pants might make it pop more. #GoBills #BillsMafia

Finished a playthrough of #FFX on #PS4 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Masterpiece 🎨 You play as Tidus, star water soccer player 🌊⚽ who hates his father, journeying alongside Yuna in her story 📖. Great characters villains, story, CTB combat. Aeons fit seemlessly with the lore. Blitzball is a fun, addicitive mini-game.

Platinum 🏆 #️⃣3️⃣5️⃣ #LifeisStrange (2015) By #DontNod #PS4 ⭐️⭐️ Okay 👍 Interactive drama starring Max, 18yo 📸 student. Minimal gameplay. Main gimmick is rewinding time 🌀 to undo choices. Story didn't hook me until ep3 finale. Graphics dated, but serviceable. Not for me, but I see how it's loved by many.
