I've been renting Hades II and it is fun, but I don't think it's for me. I think the grind for progression and large number of systems is too much for my caveman brain. I never processed it but I also think that's why I put down the original. Good stuff, not quite my tempo.

I realized I never clarified this but the giveaway has ended and the winner has been sent their remote! Thanks to all who entered and enjoyed watching Bracket Breakdown! There'll be some re-formatting but the series should return in 2026 for the best N64 games. Stay tuned!

I got to the end area of Metroid Prime 4, forgetting I only had 3 full energy tanks. There are no save stations but boy does it auto save. So I have to beat the final boss with very little energy or load my save station which is just about 3 hours behind in progress... I guess souls mode it is.

"Ice Belt" "Fury Green" "Flare Pool" "Green Energy" vs "Phendrana Drifts" "Chozo Ruins" "Magmoor Caverns" "Phason" Bro why are Metroid Prime 4's names so goofy. I actually laugh every time an area is introduced and I see big text that reads something like "V O L T F O R G E".

After about a week of playing Kirby Air Riders, I've come to accept that I absolutely love the game... And the general public likely wouldn't. It's such a faithful and unapologetic sequel that electrifies fans of the original while hardly addressing what made KAR not click with others to begin with.

Please check this out and consider donating. As you know mental health is extraordinarily important and NAMI has a great track record (100% on charity navigator). I'm also in this talking about one of my favorite indie games: Mindustry. Let it run while you get some work done, all watch time helps!

I'm streaming Metroid Prime 4 on launch weekend! I made a promise EIGHT years ago that I'd stream my first playthrough, so join me Dec 5 & 6 (next Fri/Sat) at 9am PST to see if a grown man can cry (I wouldn't bet on it, but I'll at least be 15% more giddy). Taking off work so I better see you there!

My most played game on trackable consoles is the Smash entry that the world has just about forgotten. Smash Ultimate may have eclipsed it but the jump to Smash 4 was massive and it's still a very solid game. This play time is between three brothers but it's still a crazy number.

There are plenty of examples of Nintendo's strict vision hurting the developers' final product, but Metroid Prime is one of the successful outcomes. I think the tug of war between Retro Studios and Nintendo brought something beautifully unique without abiding by genres.

This is disappointing to hear. Performance was the main thing (not the only) holding back the original game for me but this combined with the demo not ironing out camera movement makes me hesitant to jump back in. I want to like it so bad too.

Donkey Kong Bananza is a ton of fun! I don't get the sentiment that it eclipses Super Mario Odyssey. They both have their own strengths they excel at regardless of a similar formula. If you're going to compare them you might as well make it a show called Bracket Breakdown where apples fight pears.
