This is pretty much me. I don’t play games just to unlock stuff so if the game isn’t fun for me then I’ll just walk away and find something else

There’s a lack of Ace Combat in this thread so I’m going to single out 7’s but they’re all pretty good.

Also Redout has a soundtrack to spike your heartrate

Well how else are you supposed to figure out which celebrities you can beat over a lap?

This was me until I went and got a guitar so I could pretend I was a guitar god even more

Got any more room on that hill?

I preferred the ship of Phantom Hourglass more to the train but I agree that Spirit Tracks felt much more polished and fun.

Except that last flute challenge which can fuck off

Just wanna throw in an honorable mention for X-Wing Alliance although the entire X-Wing series is incredible if a little dated these days

Drums are implemented but unfortunately no vocals. Still pretty fun but not the classic experience

Guitar Hero exposed me to the idea that there was great music that wasn’t on the radio and inspired me to pick up an instrument

Good news!

That one may be my favorite product placement in a game. It’s so absurd it becomes ironically funny

Easily the worst story of any game I’ve played but my god the gameplay is incredible. I think I’ve put like 150 hours into replaying because it’s just so fun.

Highly recommended

Such a shame that these guys are shutting down. They’ve easily been my favourite devs of the last 10 years

I know it’s not happening but I wish they’d release the multiplayer too

Redout! It’s so good at getting that feeling of speed across

The game looks great but they couldn’t find any footage where the guy driving isn’t crashing into the cars ahead?

You know it, baby

These guys were my favourite devs of the last 10 years. Super sad they’re closing down

Yeah that’s a net win

There’s no way there’s a legitimate argument why this is good for us/the internet
