Mega Man X<\/strong> (SNES) – Much consideration went into the choice of what the first video game I played in 2018 would be. But it really couldn’t have gone any other way.<\/p>\n Danganronpa Another Episode: Ultra Despair Girls<\/strong> (PS4) – A shooter spin-off of a visual novel mystery series. So for every 5 minutes of gameplay, there’s 20 minutes of dialogue. Still liked it.<\/p>\n Xenoblade Chronicles 2<\/strong> (Switch) – I purposely waited until 2018 to finish it so I didn’t have to reorganize my “best games beaten in 2017” list. It would have been much too hard to place.<\/p>\n Rhythm Thief and the Emperor’s Treasure<\/strong> (3DS) – Dug this up<\/a> to beat it so that I could delete it to make room on my SD card. It’s actually an excellent<\/em> game. Reminds me of Space Channel 5.<\/p>\n Mr. Pumpkin Adventure<\/strong> (WiiU) – A highly surreal point-and-click adventure about helping a pumpkin-headed man with amnesia to remember who he is and why he’s an amnesiac.<\/p>\n Monster Hunter World<\/strong> (PS4) – Tore through the story quests, because the game doesn’t really begin until you gain access to the High Rank quests. Loving it, but longing for portability.<\/p>\n Resident Evil 7<\/strong> (PS4) – Booted ‘er up for the first time in a long while to dive into all the DLC from the season pass that I bought with the game last year and subsequently ignored.<\/p>\n Pok\u00e9mon Ultra Sun<\/strong> (3DS) – The adventure continues, at a rate of about half an hour a week.<\/p>\n Yooka-Laylee<\/strong> (Switch) – I don’t know how the game was when it initially launched, but I think that the current version is generally a very\u00a0good homage to Banjo-Kazooie.<\/p>\n Volgarr the Viking<\/strong> (Switch) – Almost beat world 2, but man, the boss is really<\/em> tough.<\/p>\n Horizon: Zero Dawn<\/strong> (PS4) – After a painfully slow start, it’s definitely getting its hooks into me. Except when I had to kill a bunch of people with a chain gun. That was really dumb.<\/p>\n Milkmaid of the Milky Way<\/strong> (iOS) – Retro-style adventure game about a rancher who must… rescue her cows from aliens? Fun, but the rhyming text often feels forced and gets annoying.<\/p>\n Super Mario RPG<\/strong> (SNES) – Played via emulator, which caused the game to crash quite often. Funny, I don’t have that problem when playing on an actual console…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" ~ Game Over ~ Mega Man X (SNES) – Much consideration went into the choice of what the first video game I played in 2018 would be.
