I played through the rice field last night. Definitely creepy.

Random Game from the Collection #997

Super Smash TV for Genesis

I picked this up after playing it for a Retrovaniacs score challenge, although we played the SNES version for that. I wasn't familiar with it at all prior to that.

Anyone a fan of this game?

This game/series doesn't get enough love. One of my all-time favorites.

This cover art is so 90s.

There are first person games I will play, but it's never my preference.

LateToGaming|Henry @latetogaming.bsky.social · 1d

For action-adventure, exploration, and narrative-driven games I prefer third-person.

For platformers and beat'em ups I tend to prefer side-scrolling.

For RPGs either top-down or third-person, depending on the type.

First-person is the one that can cause me to skip a game entirely.

Random Game from the Collection #996

Darksiders for PS3

This is one of those games I know very little about, but picked up because it was cheap. The hack and slash genre is one I do enjoy sometimes, so it has potential.

Anyone played this? How is it?

Do you recommend the original version or Master Collection version?

There is no denying that this game has great cover art (it's VERY Ultra games), but I've never actually played it. Or any other game from a Metal Gear series.

I've been wanting to play Wandering Sword. I wonder if any of these other games are worthwhile.

Still Wakes the Deep is my top recommendation from that list. After that, The Quarry. I think it's a game you'll appreciate.

I'm really not a Final Fantasy fan, but I figured this was a good collection to pick up to maybe change that.

Which game from this collection is your favorite?

No. Didn't get very far. I'll be looking forward to that, though

I decided to join in on Shelfie Sunday.

I'm kicking things off with a big one. This shelf has most of my collector's editions, deluxe editions, and other editions that are too big to go on my normal shelves.

I'm going with the Cane of Pacci. Being able to both the flip things over and turn holes into trampolines seems like it could be a lot of fun.
