Yeah X and X4 are the best in the series. Sounds like it's better to get the collection on disc. That way you have all the games. I love the challenge mode where you get to battle two bosses at once, like Chill Penguin and Frost Walrus. So funny! The extras are cool, too. Especially the toys and The Day of Sigma cartoon from the PSP game.
Yeah the shark game could've been a little more fast paced to work better on consoles.
Yeah I don't mind that they quoted me. I'm happy about it, in fact. I do wish they would've told me about it, though. Oh well.
One of the reasons why I stopped playing games like Gravity Rush 2, A Hat in Time, and even Beyond Good & Evil is that the stealth sections sucked. The only game I thought had fun stealth sections was the Ape Escape series.
Back when I was writing for The Dallas Morning News, I remember reviewing a fishing controller. Not sure if it was that one or a different one. That was nearly 20 years ago so my memory is a bit fuzzy.
I didn't get into Rock Band until LEGO Rock Band came out.
Namco is bringing two more of their Taiko games to the US this fall! Taiko no Tatsujin: Drum Session on the PS4, and Taiko no Tatsujin: Drum n Fun on the Switch! Yay!
Hydro Thunder was originally an arcade game by Midway. I prefer Arctic Thunder. It was a sequel racer on snowmobiles. I liked it because the arcade cabinet blew cold air on you. Nice on hot days.
I reviewed Hue a while back. Fun little puzzle game.

Another neat thing is when you replay the story levels and make it past a boss fight, you get a 1up if you lost a life before then.
Glad you got to play it. Each character has a mini-story, and when you beat all of them you'll see a conclusion. The game saves your scores for each character and when you play microgames seperately. When you replay a character's folder, after you beat the boss you'll keep going with harder levels. There's a surprising amount of replay value to be had. Especially with all the extras you can unlock.
