My top 10 favourite games I played this year.
I haven’t beaten as many games as in previous years, but I still played and caught up on a bunch of pretty awesome ones.
So, I’m pretty happy with my 2025.

The current God of War hype wave kinda got me, which is why I’ll finally play the original God of War for the first time next.

Spent my Sunday watching Predator 1 and Predator 2 for the first time in ages.
Especially the first Predator movie just brings a smile to my face with its over the top cast of manly macho men and their silly one-liners. But it also knows how to build suspense. It’s awesome.

Finished DuckTales (GB). I think that if you like the NES version, then you will probably have a great time with this game too. The levels are pretty much the same as on the NES, just simpler and more cramped.
The music is also good, but sadly it lacks the NES version’s punch.

Finished Kathy Rain. I love me a good mystery, and that’s exactly what this game delivers. I didn’t expect the supernatural angle to go as deep as it did though, but I enjoyed it.
It's fully voice acted, and the performances are great. Overall a pretty cool Point and Click adventure.

Finished Donkey Kong (NES). It only has 3 levels, because of the limited storage space on the early NES cartridges, instead of 4 levels like in the OG arcade ver., but it's still a neat little classic.
Always liked the fun fact that the ape in this game is actually Cranky Kong.

New additions to my collection.
I’ve always read and heard about Max Payne and its cool bullet-time mechanic, but unfortunately never actually got to play any of the games. I'm definitely going to play them soon.

Finished The Punisher. Watched the 2004 movie recently and just wanted to check out a Punisher game. It's actually a quite decent Beat 'em Up with a nice variety of weapons.
It offers basically nothing you haven't seen in other 16bit Beat 'em ups yet, but it's still a fun time.

Finished DuckTales. It's been ages since the last time I played it, but it is still one of my favourites on the NES even after all these years. The pogo-jumping alone makes this game a blast to play.
The soundtrack is SO good. It's packed with catchy 8-bit tunes across every stage.

As much as I love the Buster Sword and the Gunblade, my favourite weapon in the Final Fantasy universe will always be Brotherhood from FFX .
I just love its translucent, glowing blue look.

Finished Superliminal. It started off with some nice perspective tricks but ended with my brain feeling like it would explode due to all the optical illusions and puzzles.
I liked the message about how our perspective shapes how we face and overcome challenges in our lives.

Finished Cadash. A bit short and nothing too special in the realm of Action RPGs, but still a decent game. It can be a bit difficult if you don't grind early tho.
It's a shame they removed the Priest and Ninja classes, which were originally in the arcade and TGFX16 versions.

Finished Like A Dragon Gaiden: The Man Who Erased His Name. I loved it. The Gadgets added a neat layer to an already pretty fun combat system imo.
It’s rather short for a LAD game, but the story still hooked me. The ending both warmed and broke my poor heart at the same time.

Well, the year is pretty much over, so all that’s left for me is to wish you all the best for the year ahead. Happy New Year. 🍾

Besides spending time with my family, I will probably just eat a lot and watch old Christmas movies over the next couple of days, starting with Home Alone.
Happy holidays to you all!

I'm probably not going to beat it this year, but I wanted to at least start a new Yakuza/Like a Dragon game in 2025. I'm also just glad to play as my boy Kiryu again.

Grabbed the platinum in Forspoken, too.
At first, I didn’t want to go for the platinum because I was overwhelmed by all the side stuff, challenges, skill upgrades, etc., but I somehow ended up doing most of it during my casual playthrough, so I just finished the rest as well. 😅

Finished Forspoken. Sure, some of the dialogue (esp. at the beginning) and Frey’s rude, selfish attitude can be annoying, but I still think this game gets too much hate.
The combat is probably my highlight, and parkouring across the world is also fun. The story is alright too.

My 2025 PlayStation Wrap-Up.
Nothing spectacular going on this year, especially when it comes to trophies. I’m glad I finally played Hollow Knight and Bloodstained, though.
The craziest thing is probably how many hours I already have in Forspoken. 😅

I definitely need to replace the case for Crash Bandicoot, but overall I’m happy.

Finished Mario's Time Machine (NES). Another educational Mario game, but this time there's actually some platforming to be done here. (You still can't die tho).
For an educational game, it's okay and only about 1-2h long, depending on how much you know about historical events.

Finished Super Mario Land. One of those games I will probably never get tired of. The controls still feel really good and responsive, and the music is catchy as hell.
It's a short and fairly easy game, but that just makes it perfect for some quick platforming fun.

Finished The Stanley Parable. I knew that this game likes to break the 4th wall and constantly messes around with the player, but I was still surprised just how wild it gets.
The narrator is absolutely fantastic, and the sheer amount of recorded lines is extremely impressive.
