A top-down shooter with superpowers.
An awkward and unforgiving game that's zoomed in too far to be fun.

A side-scroller puzzle game.
I played around with it a bit. It's fair. It's overwhelmingly unforgiving and gets complicated.

A space simulator fps thingy.
While it looked quite good at a glance, when actually trying it it fell flat. When a game cannot lean on cutting-edge technology, it has to have solid gameplay. It didn't feel good at all to me. I guess No Man's Sky spoiled me.

A multiplayer, text, third-person shooter originally made for DOS, but I know it from Novell Netware.
I had a hell of a lot of fun with it. Perhaps it's nostalgia which makes me stay so fond of it, but I think the fundamental gameplay still holds up today. I could easily imagine a great updated version of this but I have and still do see this same gameplay in all sorts of other top-down games.

I'm not sure how to describe this game. It's an oldschool oldschool point-and-click game.
I think I would have liked this back in the day, but these days I find a bunch of the mechanics and gameplay too frustrating to deal with.

This got posted here instead of mobygames because they own comments after they are posted. No thanks, I write for me or for free.
Okami is a PS/2 game. It's an action/adventure type game, with an expansive world to explore, a huge set of skills, a lot of things to do .. and is just generally fun.

A tactics game so good it's worth buying a PlayStation 2 for.
My notes are for the PlayStation 2 version.

Well, it's got a sellout anime feeling to it. The graphics and sound are more cartoonish. A number of the annoyances of the first game have been hammered out, but there is a "toy" quality to the game which replaces the original gritty feeling of the original game.
My notes are for the PlayStation 2 version.
