    I wasn't aware Suffragette City was in Super Mario Galaxy

    That's the music you fight Bowser to.

    Well yeah

    But the game doesn't provide the audio for you, you gotta do it yourself

    I actually legit don't remember any music from SMG

    I remember the sound effects though

    Great sound effects

    When you shoot out from a slingshot star, fucking amazing

    Yeah, the sound effects are really good too!

    The entire soundtrack's orchestral

    I think this is probably the most popular piece?

    And then of course the music you ACTUALLY fight Bowser to is nice and intense

    No lie if they announced an HD Mario pack of Sunshine/Galaxy/Galaxy 2 I'd go out and buy a Wii U literally today

    So I beat Beyond

    I


    I think I liked it? There were some parts I really, genuinely enjoyed and then there were a lot of parts that were actively on fire and then the ending is the funniest fucking thing in the world.

    Oh cool!

    Just started playing Knack

    Went off the beaten path and found a hidden upgrade in a chest, but it's apparently random what you find in those chests, because then it was like "if you want, you can swap out this upgrade for the upgrade that one of your friends found here" and then it brought up a list of my PSN friends that have played Knack and what they found in that chest

    That's really cool! I like seeing new stuff like that

    I am going to need to add a bunch of people on here when I get a PS4 because none of my friends are getting one

    If they're getting a console at all they're going Xbox and I don't want an Xbox

    Well I mean

    This seems like something current-gen could totally do

    I just think it's a cool integration of a social feature into a primarily single-player game

    Oh, yeah, I know

    It just seems like there was something of an emphasis on stuff like that for Microsoft and Sony, and it's something I'd like to see more often

    Trying that Music Unlimited trial that was packed into the PS4

    So now I am streaming Knack while listening to The College Dropout

    EDIT: Aw bummer, the streaming music doesn't stream to the gameplay broadcast! That's lame as shit but with music rights being the way they are I guess it's not unexpected :?

    Beyond thoughts:
    I really loved Jodie, as a character, and her relationship with her "two dads" was one of my favorite parts of the game. My favorite chapter was Homeless, I really liked all of the homeless people, especially Stan, and cared about them. I also liked Navajo up until the dumb racist shit reared its head.

    So basically anything with Jodie just trying to survive/interacting with people she likes and trying to help them I loved. All of the CIA bullshit was zzzzzzzzz

    I have a friend in the UK who won a contest and is getting a PS4 for free

    I didn't preorder one and can't afford one for another week or so and I probably will still get one earlier than him

    Everything balances out

    There is something like

    Hypnotic almost

    About assassin's creed for me

    I like it just enough to play it a lot

    I've finished all of them but revelation and I've even 100%ed a few of them

    But I never like it enough to feel like I am actively having fun

    Like I can play wonderful 101 or Mario galaxy or hotline Miami and just be grinning like an idiot the whole time

    But with assassin's creed its like

    "This is the bare minimum amount of enjoyable to make me keep going and not an ounce more"

    But I wanted a cool big game to play on ps4 and with watch dogs getting pushed back ac4 was pretty much my only option

    I lost interest at Revelations. But Black Flag looks legit interesting and enough of a departure for me to.legit want to play it.

    Not before I pick up X:Rebirth though.

    Man, now I'm wondering what my favorite game of the generation would be.

    I'd be very tempted to pick The Walking Dead.

    Though if the rest of Kentucky Route Zero is as good as the first two acts...

    Mass Effect 2 for me.

    It is still the only game where I immediately started a new game upon beating it.

    Walking Dead is probably the best "narrative experience" of this gen for me

    Mario Galaxy 2 would be the best "gameplay experience"

    AssBro or Rock Band for the best "social experience"

    Picking a favorite among those 3 doesn't really seem possible

    Oh hey, @Speed Racer

    In case you were wondering in Year Walk
    The myths and stuff are all real. I mean, not real real, but, they are referencing actual, known, established myths. I was kind of hoping that they were actually making up and inventing the myths and trying to pass them off as real via the game and the companion. But that is probably just the huge Borges fan in me talking.

    Okay this is me trying to remember choices
    I burned down the party, but let the kids live.

    I saved Paul's life.

    I never fell in love with anyone. Especially Ryan the Cyclops.

    I chose life, and went to go live with my homeless friends.

    And now i have to train Zoey to fight the GHOST APOCALYPSE
