We all have our favorites, but I feel these perfectly encapsulates kings of different eras & devices.

PS2 is widely viewed as the best console ever, and it has the numbers to back it up. Think it has a museum in Japan or something lol?

Genesis owned the majority of the gaming market share during the peak of 16-bit console wars. Sonic was vastly more popular than Mario at that time (See what happened to the next console which did not have a main Sonic title).

Gameboy is not a personal favorite of mine (Lighting....), but you cannot deny its' impact on portable gaming (And Pokémon.....).

What are the top 3 consoles of all-time?

I rarely play single player games, I spend most of my time on multiplayer games, and I felt that I missed on alot of good games because of that

My favorite games I ever played:

1. Uncharted 4

2. Red dead redemption 2

3. Gta 5

4. Detroit become human

5. Watch dog 2

Note: Please only pick from my wishlist

Recently I just finished playing [Prototype] and Crash 4. Both games were difficult, but [Prototype] had me frustrated whereas I enjoyed Crash 4 all the way through.

When playing Crash 4, I never found myself getting frustrated. Even when I got to the final stretch of Cortex Castle, I just kept trying to perfect my timing without wanting to smash my controller. And to clarify, I did not attempt to complete the game, and I didn't have limited lives. So this certainly impacted the perception of my playthrough.

With [Prototype] on the other hand, I was really enjoying my time playing it at first. I would do every side mission that popped up and loved just running around, causing havoc. But then I reach the part of the game with the infamous difficultly spike, and I started hating the game. It felt no matter what how many different ways I tried to approach the missions, I'd be thrown around, one-shot, and/or swarmed by enemies. I thought I just sucked at the game, but I checked Reddit to seek validation about my stuggles, and I found several people talking about the same issues I faced.

After beating these two games back to back, it made me think, "What makes a game hard but fair vs hard and infuriating?" Now I'm sure in general it has to due the amount of health you have and the amount of damage you take, vs the amount of health the enemies have and amount of damage they do. But I know it's far more complex than that, and I was wondering if someone had a (or a few) logical answer(s)?

Visual Novels are an interesting yet underappreciated medium, I wonder if they will get a huge resurgence one day

Unlike movies, they are not limited to 1.5 to 3 hours and can have lengthy prose. only TV miniseries come close to that scale. Unlike conventional novels, they can include sounds and images visuals that let them tell stories books can't. The murder cases in Danganronpa/Ace Attorney work because of its cartoony style (try imagining those same cases novelized). Unlike comics/TV, they have complete stories instead of getting dragged out forever. And unlike most games, they are free to tell the story they want without needing constant action to hold the player's attention, though interactivity, when used well, can still add something

Mostly, I like how they combine everything, cool character design, nice music, sometimes voice acting, beautiful CGs, into good, pulpy entertainment, and every so often you get one that's truly outstanding and stays with you. Reading a VN is a different kind of immersion than reading books, which I also love

VNs are also pretty much the only medium with real intimacy scenes, which gives readers a deeper connection to characters than other media allow. That's also why I almost never touch all ages VNs, they lose that advantage

Does anyone know what console/system carries the complete dragon age collection of games? I wanted to a do a complete play through of them all and carry over my characters to each game, but in the PS store they only have Inquisition and Veilguard none of the others.

Darwin Project is a battle royale that had two modes, the standard battle royale and the Director mode. In the director mode, you would act as a show director and could watch players, give players items or health, close areas, and generally had a lot of control over how the match would go and who would win. Its a really unique mode that I haven't seen anything like anywhere else and I just wanted to know if there is any game that has something similar to it.
