The Apocalypse Doesn’t Seem So Bad in Remnant: From the Ashes

It's dark and dreary, sure, but it's also been kind of fun fighting for our survival. So it can't all be bad, right?

A World of Games: Star Wars: Racer Arcade

I don't know why Episode I got so much flack. Sure, it wasn't as great as the original trilogy, but it did spawn a surprisingly fun racing series!

Vexx Playstation 2 Ever since I can remember I ha Vexx
Playstation 2

Ever since I can remember I have had a strange liking of random ass platformers, so of course Vexx is no exception. I originally rented this game on the Gamecube, but came to purchase it on the PS2 some years later. You have some powerful gauntlets you can use to defeat enemies, climb walls, and I'm sure other stuff (I didn't get very far in this one). It's begging to be in some mediocre platformer video series out there, I just know it.

If there were critics of the first Street Fighter Collection's included games, I feel they'd be even more critical of the followup. This time around we were given arcade ports of Street Fighter II, Champion Edition, and Turbo. All fine games in their own right, but largely identical. I don't know why you'd even play the original when you have Champion Edition and Turbo available. Also, sad to see this game case is a single case where the previous was a double (for some reason).⁠⁠

Phantom Brave Playstation 2 There was a really in Phantom Brave
Playstation 2

There was a really interesting exploit in this game that I took full advantage of: between story missions you can engage in some battles to grind for experience. You can also set the difficulty of monsters you encounter, among other things. I used this to earn massive amounts of experience for my characters, powerleveling them to crazy high levels relative to their place in the storyline. Looking back, this might not be an exploit and could be just how you play the game, but either way I really enjoyed it!

The King of Fighters: Dream Match '99⁠⁠ Dreamc The King of Fighters: Dream Match '99⁠⁠

You would think a game series with literal years in the title would be easy to keep track of, but get this. King of Fighters: Dream Match '99 is an enhanced port of King of Fighter '98. There's a port of Dream Match '99 on the PS2, but there it's called King of Fighters '98: Ultimate Match. Why though? Why make it this confusing...⁠⁠
