Hello! I am actually playing only Silent Hill Origins on ps2 right now. I took a long break from shattered memories (gonna resume it in a few months). And RE survivor II, I only play it once a week or so. I am a survival horror fan and veteran so even if I play a few at the same time, I never get confused.
I would say that survivor 2 is a decent game despite it's critics, I liked it and enjoyed it, except that the dungeon mode levels tend to be pretty long and maze like, it's easy to get lost and take a while to find the exit, but arcade mode is good, true to the arcade. They added some content as part of dungeon mode because the arcade mode alone is short. The aiming system is kinda like doom, no need to aim upwards, only horizontal and rarely downwards. Think of it as Code Veronica in 1° person, if you like Code Veronica, you'll probably like this one

Thanks for the Multitap add! Did the same. Lovely collection!

Happy New Year everyone!

Games I really enjoyed playing in 2022 (in chronological order):

- Front Mission 2 (PS) - had to use a combination of unfinished English patch + a translation of the game's script, it was an interesting experience. Much like growing up with games imported from Japan and zero knowledge of the Japanese language;
- Ys III: Wanderers from Ys (GEN) - amazing music and gameplay;
- Axelay (SNES) - a very innovative shmup visually;
- DiRT Rally (Steam) - very difficult, took me a lot of time but I won all the championships;
- New Super Mario Bros. U (WiiU) and New Super Luigi U (WiiU) - Mario games are always fun. These we beat in co-op;
- Kirby and the Forgotten Land (Switch) - another very fun game for co-op;
- Metro: Exodus - Sam's Story [DLC] (GOG) - the story is bollocks as always is the case with Metro games, but the world and the atmosphere are unparalleled;
- Luigi's Mansion 3 (Switch) - another very fun family-friendly game.

Dishonorable mentions:
- Batman: Arkham Origins Blackgate - Deluxe Edition (Steam) - this game is literally a guide how to make a terrible metroidvania;
- Tomb Raider: Chronicles (PC) - it began as a fun and promising game but unfortunately degraded to incomprehensible broken game design, quicksave tactics and game-breaking bugs;
- The Incredible Crash Dummies (GEN) - licensed piece of crap.

Thanks for the Add!

I do agree. The reused boss fight was bit lame, and the gameplay is not as refined as Nintendo titles, but all in all, it was a cute little game.

Sackboy: A Big Adventure was a neat little game!
Super enjoyable in coop!

Hello, thank you for adding me! You've got an excellent list of top games

Yes, I do prefer Doom 1 over Doom 2. I wasn't really aware of the original release history, and I had assumed #2 came a few years later than it did. Doom 2 barely feels like a sequel, and not an improvement either, in my opinion.

Doom 1 has extra charm for being a more unique experience as the original. I think the smaller and narrower level design adds to the scary atmosphere.

I guess, for me, Quake 1 is the "real sequel" to Doom 1, and Doom 2 feels more like an add-on map pack with some visual and content upgrades. A pack I don't really enjoy

But I loved Quake 1 when I first played it only last year

btw I'm returning to Pathologic this month. Going to last all 12 days this time

I lost my patience on the last map. I didn't want to bother finding out whether the level would end by killing X waves of enemies or shooting the boss in the possible weak point. Timing the rocket shots was annoying enough.

Actually I wouldn't have been surprised if I had checked a guide earlier in the game. There were some very annoying hidden doors and keycard locations. I just wasn't impressed by Doom 2 at all and didn't want to spend more time figuring out map 30 after I toughed through the rest of the game.

Hot soup!
