15. Drums Rock - Feb 12th Very fun game for the PSVR2, very cathartic and satisfying, even if it's basic (and the DLC songs are way too expensive lol), the "worst" part of this game is that the VR headset sometimes would slip off my face because I was headbanging too hard with the game's songs lol

14. Demon's Crest - Feb 09th Oh yeah baby, this is a fun spooky SNES game, super unique game with gorgeous dark visuals, a dark atmosphere and very fitting music. This game is short and sweet with very fun exploration, power-ups and bosses... aside from the true final boss that is lol. Great game!

13. Dr Kawashima's Brain Training for Switch - Feb 06th This is not a good version of the classic lol, I'm sorry. It has less minigames than the DS and 3DS titles and they screwed up the "number drawing recognition" The minigames with the IR Camera are fun and unique and the multiplayer is decent

12. Ninja Gaiden Trilogy - Feb 02nd I wanted to play more Ninja Gaiden so I decided to finally try out the SNES "remaster" of the NES games and yeah, it's not that good lol, the visuals aren't much of an improvement, many visual effects are missing and the music is overall worse.. but it plays well

11. Screencheat: Unplugged - Jan 30th A friend showed me this game and I immediately fell in love with the premise! This is an FPS versus game akin to GoldenEye but all of the characters are invisible, the only way to figure out where the other players are is to literally look at their screens lol

100

10. TMNT - Shredder's Revenge - Jan 30th Oh yeah baby, as someone who lovers Turtles in Time, and this game being a love letter to that title, you could say I loved this one so much as well! Incredible pixel art, music and specially gameplay, such a satisfying beat 'em up, especially with friends!

100

9. Nightshade - January 29th I wanted to like this game more, it does have great moments and set-pieces, but I feel like this game is more frustrating, repetitive and less cathartic than is predecessor, which is a huge shame... Although I still wanna give play this game again in the future

100

8. Ninja Gaiden 2 Black - January 27th Here it is, the reason I bought an Xbox Series S lol, this is a fantastic remake! It's not the real "Black" version of 2, but it does fix a lot of stuff from the Sigma 2 version, like the upgrade system and the gore! This is a better and more stunning Sigma 2!

100

7. Astro Bot - January 23rd Now this game, yeah this game is truly fantastic! Inventive and super fun levels, abilities and moment to moment gameplay, this game is simply a join to play every single step of the way, there's literally no fiiler or time wasted, every minute of gameplay is so fun!!

6. Arizona Sunshine 2 - January 13th This was a really fun, if basic game, but shooting zombies in VR is always a good time, especially in multiplayer! Shooting/reloading in VR games is always super fun, when the game is able to nail that feeling, and I'd say this game succeeds in that

100

5. Shinobi - January 10th Now this, this is a fantastic action game! It's a very tough but also extremely satisfying game, it's easily my favorite Shinobi game as well as one of my favorites from the PS2, I just wish this game had checkpoints in its levels as well as an actual good final boss lol

100

4. Castlevania Lords of Shadow 2 - January 7th Now this game was brilliant, the combat is even better than the original LoS, the game has some incredible vistas and set-pieces, but I don't think the story is as strong as LoS1, and the stealth sections can be daunting, but the combat makes up for it

3. Koumajou Densetsu - Scarlet Symphony - January 6th The first "Touhouvania" and uh, I don't think this one is as good, the level design is kind of repetitive, the controls are a bit finnicky and it's too dialogue heavy, but the game is still quite fun! The music and bosses are again the stand out

2. PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale - January 5th I had played this game in the past but not much, but I decided to give it a proper deep dive and yeah, this game is not so bad, I really love how the characters are designed. Although the game's lack of content is a bummer, I would love a sequel

120

1. Touhou Luna Nights - January 4th A brilliant Metroidvania in the universe of Touhou, and just like Touhou this game shines on its incredible set of bosses and music! This is also a very fun to play game with gorgeous visuals and a fun story, the time-stop mechanic is also super unique and cool!

With 2024 coming to a close I look back at the games I played and damn, in total it was 73 titles LOL, holy shit quite a lot! Although most of them were shorter titles, I'm still happy to see I played a good variety of games, old and new from various different platforms, genres and series

VVizard @vvizardx.bsky.social · 13/12/2024

Capcom/Clover!!! Give me a new/remaster of God Hand and my life... is your

30. And finally, my favorite game of all time, and there's only one answer to that question, Arrowhead's masterpiece, Magicka! I don't think I'll honestly love a game more than this one, this game showed me that, even the most obscure game, could innovate and create incredible unique experiences!

29. A game I was surprised I liked, it was actually Fire Emblem! I'm not really an RPG guy and I also don't really remember why I decided to give the series a shot, but man I'm so happy I did! I haven't played through many of its titles yet, but the ones I did, I absolutely loved it!

28. Favorite game developer, Nintendo and its internal teams are ones that are hard to go wrong with, I also truly love Remedy Entertainment, From Software, HAL Laboratory, Next Level Games, Treasure... But if I can choose only one above all of these, it's the goat themselves, Capgod, aka Capcom!!
