Usually talking about video games (Nintendo / PlayStation / PC). Sometimes I make videos about 'em too. Gameplay clips are mine unless otherwise noted!

Last time I was *overwhelmed* with responses, so this should be fun! (Shout out to #BlackskyGamers #Blerdsky #GamerSkyClub)

Sonic's "about to drown" theme still puts me on edge to this day, ha!

Hell yeah. I was just talking about Second Son yesterday!

Sly Cooper is cool but I'd like a new Infamous game. Imagine how hard that could go on current gen hardware!

What's next for Sucker Punch now that Ghost of Yotei is out the door? The Sony-owned studio has yet to say, but based on comments from the boss of the company, it will remain a single-project studio.

If only we'd known back then that Zero would end up in MvC3 and that he would be a PROBLEM 🤣

And I know exactly what you're talking about, haha

TvC? I see, you know ball! 🫱🏽‍🫲🏽

Hey #blackskygamers #blerdsky 🎮
What's your favorite game that no one talks about? maybe it’s long forgotten, or it was never popular.

Here's another one! The excellent "Tatsunoko Vs. Capcom" went overlooked, because it was a Wii exclusive with weird characters. www.youtube.com/watch?v=hqJA...

They did NOT need to go that hard for a game centered around a kid's toy line, and yet they did. And I appreciate them for it.

Viewtiful O. @viewtifulo.com · 32m

Crazy - if I played any of these games right now, it would be for the first time 😅

I usually run Taki on SC, but I forgot to mention Link for the GameCube version! That boy used to be going AT IT with Raphael

I'm with you - I still ain't finished Bloodborne cause I'm not a masochist.

Viewtiful O. @viewtifulo.com · 37m

Don't think I've ever even heard of this game in my life. Gonna have to look that one up!

Viewtiful O. @viewtifulo.com · 39m

I like how Ivy's outfit got more and more impractical as the series went on 😆

Viewtiful O. @viewtifulo.com · 47m

The Def Jam games were getting CRAZY creative with the finishing moves!

Tetris DS. I'll be a master by the time someone (hopefully) comes to rescue me

24. You're stranded on a deserted island but you can play one game while you're there. Which game would you want?

Viewtiful O. @viewtifulo.com · 50m

Honestly almost my entire collection is digital at this point, but even before I could download games I rarely ever resold them.

Viewtiful O. @viewtifulo.com · 6h

23. Do you resell your games?

Viewtiful O. @viewtifulo.com · 53m

Dr. Eli Vance from Half-Life 2!

(Shout out to Doctor Bosconovich from Tekken, ol' weird ass)

Eli Vance from Half-Life 2. He's a Black man with a short white hairstyle and a short salt-and-pepper mustache and goatee. He's wearing a green vest with a red-and-black flannel pattern on the inside.

It's the same as my answer to Question #3. Nintendo was flexing with this one!

Viewtiful O. @viewtifulo.com · 59m

Those "Army Guy" games are played tf out. Mechanically and creatively speaking, Splatoon is the superior multiplayer shooter.

I start every game on Medium / Normal difficulty until I feel like I need to adjust.

Viewtiful O. @viewtifulo.com · 6h

18. When you have a choice, do you play on EASY, MEDIUM, HARD, or EXTRA HARD mode?

Viewtiful O. @viewtifulo.com · 1h

I'd take the whole concept of finding / dropping off passengers from Crazy Taxi... and put it into Mario Kart World

🚨🚨 TOTK SPOILER 🚨🚨

Imagine just chillin' minding your business one day and the sky & moon suddenly turn blood red. And then a few minutes later you look up and see a fucking NUKE go off in the sky 🤣
