Ugh this was so hard and I hate some of my choices.

Runners Up for "Games I wish I had a place to put on here but something else beat them out:" Super Metroid, Power Stone 2, Kirby Super Star, Sonic 3, Zelda 2. Edit: Also any rhythm game?? DDR probably... Edit5: Rock Band?! Edit3: Chrono Trigger, Secret of Evermore... Edit4: PuyoTet? The first game I ever imported...

Edit2: oh forgot to link it. grids.fun/t/about-me-video-gam

@The_T i can't overstate the joy i felt seeing timesplitters in criminally overlooked

@aescling @Lucy wow i wish i put blops 3 in my "not usually my thing"

@aescling @Lucy dammit i should have put rayman 2 in best art style

@Lucy I find things like this to be reductive. Having to choose one item for each game and the excessive specificity removes the opportunity for nuance when games can fit into multiple boxes or when multiple games can fit in a category with room for only one game. And in the algorithm-driven world where art is carefully organized into categories so that we are regularly fed art that checks superficial boxes instead of being itself I have qualms about itemizing art this way. Also, here is my grid:

i did this, although i feel like i might pick slightly different options depending on the day lol

@coriander @magicalmilly it's actually illegal to make a post like this and then not share a link

@radicalrobit A rare, experimental approach that immediately illustrates why it's a rare, experimental approach

@coriander @rockario what's frustrating with Anderson is that he's still good at critiquing games when he approaches them mechanically. But whenever he talks about story or themes I kind of want him to just stop talking please
