Awesome. I love when the game allows you to beat it in 15-20 hours if you want, but there are hundreds of hours of content to find and uncover. That way if you love the world you can spend as long as you want there. Hell, I just found some things I have never found in Fallout 3. 12th time around. 😆

2025 Finished Game 67 - Fallout 3 (360)
On this replay of Fallout 3, I had my wife build the character and I tried to follow her strengths. I had fun playing a vigilante melee focused character. Buggy and enjoyable as always. 4.5/5⭐️

2025 Finished Game 66 - Who Wants To Be A Millionaire? 3rd Edition (PS1)
You get the music from the show and Regis in audio and video! Icing on the cake is the dramatic pauses before revealing the answers. Limited replay value holds it back. 3.5/5⭐️ @polykillpodcast.bsky.social #justbeatit

2025 Finished Game 65 - X-Men: Reign of Apocalypse (GBA)
I was stoked to find a GBA X-Men beat’em up. Visually the backgrounds and sprites are appealing. Combat is decent with an assortment of moves. Gameplay can be repetitive and often cheap. 3.25/5⭐️ @polykillpodcast.bsky.social #justbeatit

2025 Finished Game 64 - Joust (NES)
An arcade classic ported to the NES. It loops after stage 16 with increased difficulty so I saw everything the game has to show. It’s a good port, but gets stale fast. 3/5⭐️ @polykillpodcast.bsky.social #justbeatit

2025 Finished Game 63 - Wheel of Fortune feat. Vanna White (NES)
A much more flushed out version of WoF that also supports 3 players. The presentation is excellent and the Vanna White Sprite is awesome. I won a speedboat! 4/5⭐️ @polykillpodcast.bsky.social #justbeatit

2025 Finished Game 62 - Wheel of Fortune (NES)
A solid version of the classic tv game show. The game moves quick and the timer keeps things interesting. Not a lot of extra features, but overall it works. 3/5⭐️ @polykillpodcast.bsky.social #justbeatit

2025 Finished Game 61 - Mazinger Z (Arcade)
I don’t know the subject matter manga, but it’s hard to mess up a mech shmup. Colorful sprites and animations are the highlight. Gameplay is decent, but nothing groundbreaking. It’s solid overall. 3.5/5⭐️ @polykillpodcast.bsky.social #justbeatit

2025 Finished Game 60 - Taboo: The Sixth Sense (NES) Is this even a game? Plays more like a magic 8 ball or fortune teller. It’s more of an oddity of the time than a game. Could have been fun during a sleepover as a kid, but not much to do now. 2/5⭐️

2025 Finished Game 59 - Baseball (NES)
While a large step up over Atari baseball games, the NES Black Box Baseball game is unapologetically basic. There are much better games to play instead. 2/5⭐️

2025 Finished Game 58 - The Punisher (Arcade)
Capcom knocked it out of the park with this Marvel property. The amount of moves you can pull off with ease is staggering. Absolutely worth playing any way you can. 5/5⭐️

2025 Finished Game 57 - Bucky O’Hare (Arcade)
Another Classic Konami Arcade game. I would have loved this game coop back in the day. Fun solo, but play with friends if you can. 4.5/5⭐️

2025 Finished Game 56 - Metamorphic Force (Arcade)
Konami really nailed it with this arcade beat ‘em up. Eye popping graphics and sprites marry perfectly with fluid gameplay. I bet this cabinet would be a blast 4 player. Go play it! 4.75/5⭐️

2025 Finished Game 55 - Pit Fighter (Arcade)
I remember dumping quarters into this game when Street Fighter II was taken. It was serviceable at best. Generic ass characters and shitty gameplay on top of farts for music. 2/5⭐️

2025 Finished Game 54 - Samurai Aces (Arcade)
Samurai Aces is a nondescript looking arcade SHMUP. Simple, yet crisp controls with stunning sprite work. You can even pilot your ship as a dog plus the runtime is short so I say check it out. 3.75/5⭐️

2025 Finished Game 53 - Frogger (GBC)
Frogger won’t impress you with graphics or sounds. Gameplay is simplistic, yet addicting. 8 looping levels of chaotic hopping will keep you occupied during long car rides to grandmas. 3.75/5⭐️
