Uh hello? Retro Studios already did this, way back in 2010, with Super Kong...

The Retro Wildlands podcast is back! In this new episode, I’m counting down my favorite video games I played in 2025. The surprises, the standouts, and the ones I couldn’t stop thinking about long after the credits rolled. Check out your favorite podcast app! theretrowildlands.com/episode/retr...

New video up! Kind of a re-post as this combines my old parts 1 & 2 of the Contra retrospectives from 2024, but there is a new section added to the end with some extra stuff since uncovered. Enjoy! Sharing around is much appreciated :) youtu.be/Ap10X-REdlk

Well, Soha had this one ready for the week! Unbeatable is a very narrative-driven and stylish rhythm game. But how much does the story add to the experience? Check it out! youtu.be/diosErlxLMc

An update on the channel.

Almost 20 years later, Bioshock is still incredibly impressive. Rapture has gotten its flowers the whole time but it's still *so* interesting. The horror vibes, the setpieces, the environmental storytelling and so much more. I've had a great time revisiting it for the podcast.

And this one

youtu.be/cK886ySEssQ I'm a real professional who didn't forget to make a post about a new video upload.

Seeing more and more articles/posts about <Game Studio> uses AI and the extent of it is all over the place. I'm not a game dev, but as a former QA who built test scripts, I think the nuance is lost when techbros and studio devs fail to reach a proper consensus on what exactly to call the technology

It's finally here! Reviewed for you! A retrospective on Yooka-Laylee and a review for Re-Playlee combined into one! youtu.be/vZpTpSc8fCY #Yooka-Laylee #Yooka-Re-Playlee #Review #Retrospective #Playtonic #Team17 #PMStudios #PlaytonicFriends

NEW EPISODE! Lucas from @gameoverhell.bsky.social joins to assess the story of a shortstack swordsman, Brave Fencer Musashi!

PSA to creators. YouTube added another crappy feature, and forced it ON by default as they usually do. If you don't want bad AI upscaling adding undesirable artifices in your videos you have to turn it off on your channel's settings. YouTube Studio -> Settings -> Advanced -> Scroll down

Our second to last October review is here! youtu.be/FJpO-D7x0i4 In spite of the visuals I think labeling this as halloween appropriate may have been a bit of a stretch, but I went into this blind so don't @ me! Now please excuse me while I vanish to work on the Replaylee video.

Finished a full completionist run today. Not to spoil my impressions (video review soon) but... There were times I felt like my impressionable 9 or 10 year old self again. Very few games accomplish that. @playtonicgames.com and @pmstudios.bsky.social done and "A Realm Reborn"'d the IP!

youtu.be/LAihZnjzcY0 Starting the series of Halloween season reviews in the channel!

I really wanted to put a MEET 'N' FUCK KINGDOM, STEVE reference in the script, but I didn't manage to write it in. You're all saved from my full degeneracy this time.

youtu.be/Il56rtk0EzE Lucas and Soha both review the same weird fan-translated N64 game in one video!

youtu.be/VoKiHWzRGNI New review is up! A SNES inspired sidescroller that I think got more flack than it deserved.

youtu.be/EBqshQdfAEk New review is up! Impressions on this game I think more people should play NEO: The World Ends With Plaid!

youtu.be/NARyRv7mKfI New review is up!

youtu.be/IBfYRpMDbfU This was my biggest video work yet, and long overdue. Enjoy and share if you like it!

My contribution to the Review Crew at the @retrohangover.bsky.social discord this month. Super Monkey Ball for the Gamecube got picked so here's my review! youtu.be/vQIJxmJte4E

I completely forgot to update here. Quick review of the brand new Master System game by developer Badcomputer! And I want to give a shoutout to @segabits.bsky.social because if I wasn't following their website I wouldn't have known about the game! #FrontierForce #Review youtu.be/MQM-pchdaBI

New video is up! The last of the Mark III launch year series! youtu.be/RJltqsdstYY

Took a while but finally put together my thoughts after replaying the PS1 original couple months ago. youtu.be/g7XoE_iOLNY I'd like to focus on short laid-back reviews for a while and play more games but...

youtu.be/74GJLMSVAck Skipping a couple games momentarily to cover all 3 launch sports games for the Mark III in one video. I had a lot of fun recording and editing for this one. I hope it's just as entertaining to watch!

youtu.be/QUVHVyb5Nfc @sohayo.bsky.social revisited one of his old favorites and checked if it still holds up!

New short-ish review is up. Ara Ara Aragami youtu.be/uzrQ0AR6M2A

youtu.be/uPrujKVZmY4 The first in a series of Master System reviews coming. Also, new year new thumbnail template.

New year means new Top 10! And yes a few 2024 releases are featured in this. youtu.be/Ip91a9QxWrc

The last review of the year is ready! It's Kona! Next videos should be the top 10 for 2024 and a channel update. The next long review is Final Fantasy VII (PSX), which has all the footage, but the script isn't finalized. Look forward to many more reviews next year! youtu.be/WQDuAMXkXZw

Check out The Last Guardian review produced by @sohayo.bsky.social !! youtu.be/k2ckdKqkRQY

youtu.be/nXw_wuweoAM Well after a few delays, it's finally done. This was a ton of work. Enjoy! That wraps up the Remasters!

Forgot to share this yesterday New review for Silent Hill 2 (PS2) is up! Excellent work done by @sohayo.bsky.social and not me this time! youtu.be/traw3Nz_-c0

Highly recommend

Done with the final revision of the Final Fantasy VI script and recorded the commentary. Now to begin editing and cursing my lack of organizational skills for game footage.

Finally picked a bookshelf to put my physical games in. This is every physical game I currently own, minus Xenoblade Definitive Edition which is being borrowed by someone. That's one of the things I like about actually having a physical copy of something... I can let people borrow them.

I was planning on compiling the five videos into one for everyone who prefers watching compilations, but turns out davinci resolve doesn't like some of the MP4 files I have. Lesson learned, I guess? From now I'm gonna have to export the videos... in 2 formats.

youtu.be/Obw1TlT4_zc The last of my videos done for the Halloween month is ready! Silent Hill 1 can still be scary as hell and I get into why in this review.

A leak in my closet completely ruined my Wii U, my game pad, 2 wii remotes and 1 nunchuk I had. My wii, which was also supposed to have been damaged by the leak? Still works. The disc that was inside of it all these years? Good as new.

In case you haven't noticed I've been working on quite a few small videos this month to tie in with the Halloween or Halloween-adjacent theme of October. I figured I could make a bunch of short videos then combine then into one at the end of the month for those of you who prefer compilations.

Finally finished playing Final Fantasy VI. I've loved this game for a long time but this was the first time I actually made it to the credits. Now to work on the script for the video!

If you haven't already seen it, I made a retrospective with my thoughts on each of every single Thunder Force game. Check it out! youtu.be/TMULVJ7BmxM

Compiled all my mini-reviews into one video for everyone who likes watching long form compilation videos I'm pretty much done making videos with the mini-review label but I'll still make more videos similar to them in structure in the future. So if you enjoy their less "formal" style stay tuned!

From one Final Fantasy to another. Nearly done with the Pixel Remasters and it's V's turn now! youtu.be/hYEOOQ6Pp5U Expect to see at least a few more Final Fantasy reviews in the near future before I take a much needed break from this series to play and review other things.

Having to postpone work for this evening so I'm pulling my livestream earlier today. Will begin playing Gris shortly. Likely beat it today and get the footage I need! www.twitch.tv/gameoverhell

Will be streaming Descent on Twitch today. Stream will begin 15~30 mins later than scheduled, or 8~23 minutes from now! www.twitch.tv/gameoverhell

I'm starting to get back to streaming. Follow me on Twitch if you need some chill brazilian gamer playing a variety of games to completion running on one of your screens while you work or something. www.twitch.tv/gameoverhell

First full review of the year. It's Final Fantasy IV Pixel Remaster! I'm proud of how the video turned out. youtu.be/iHGhna8M71c

After years of being a stupid snob about it, I finally start checking out the Tales series, starting with the first one! youtu.be/449GhBqyshI
