Cuckold Simulator: Life As A Beta Male

 

 

PROS:

-I read on Twitter that this is a good game, so I know for sure that it's a good game.

-Game does not require a VR headset, so I can keep my face shield and mask on while playing inside, safety is important.

-REPRESENTATION! As a Gen Z Riding Lawn Mower, this game does a perfect job of representing my modern family. Me, my wife Tiffany, my wife's boyfriend Tyquavious, and my son LeBron can all play this game together.

-The story is really good! I'd rank it right up there with Marvel's Captain Marvel and Star Wars: The Last Jedi.

Bio Menace

 

Bio Menace

 

He’s a bad man 3/5

A solid platformer where you play as World Championship Wrestling pro wrestler Johnny B. Badd going around shooting your Badd Blaster at monsters.

 

Injustice: Gods Among Us Ultimate Edition

 

Injustice: Gods Among Us Ultimate Edition

 

I played the XBOX 360 version of Injustice: Gods Among Us Ultimate Edition for the first time last year, and I really enjoyed the story mode, however 5 hours later when that was over I had little interest in playing random matches against the computer or getting bodied online. The story did stick with me enough that I looked forward to playing it a second time, this time on Steam, and it was just as fun for another playthrough. 

GAMEPLAY:

-Injustice has that modern day Mortal Kombat feel to it, which isn’t bad, even if it’s a bit stiffer and slower than I’d like. The stages have a lot of interactive objects to use against your opponent, which honestly gets old after the first time interacting with them, luckily you can turn that feature off, at least in the single player mode.

STORY (contains spoilers):

-Basically Superman turns heel and starts punching holes through chests and shooting lasers through skulls, all while alternate timeline superheroes and villains do battle in the background.

ART STYLE:

-Since this is a video game based off of comic book characters, I feel like how the characters look is somewhat important. Wonder Woman is built like a BRICK SH*THOUSE which is GREAT, but she has a jawline like Sgt. Slaughter, perhaps a Gal Gadot face and foot mod should be looked into. Lex Luthor straight up looks like Bruce Willis which is pretty cool. No big complaints about how the characters look overall.

SHOULD YOU GET THIS GAME?:

-If this game is on sale, if you are into fighting games, and if you are into cape stuff, then I’d say YES. The story is interesting, and the gameplay is solid enough. Plus it’s the Justice League, the Justice league is cool, I mean let’s be honest here…….

Agony Unrated

Agony Unrated

 

Beautiful walking sim, terrible controls 2/5

I don’t support censorship in video games, even if it’s just a mild tweak in a remake/remaster, so the fact that Agony Unrated is allowed to express itself is awesome. I accidentally installed Agony (Censored) and played it for about 30 minutes before realizing I was playing the nerfed version, and then I installed Agony (Unrated). I’m glad this happened so I could see some of the quality of life gameplay fixes they added in, the addition of a mini map alone was a huge improvement. 

If gameplay is all you care about, then Agony is going to leave you sorely disappointed, this game is basically a walking simulator with a little bit of awkward combat thrown in to spice up the walking. I did like how the Button Puncher controller layout I use in Halo Infinite to throw grenades (LB) is also used to chunk demon babies in this game, demon baby chunking never felt more natural. 

I really did enjoy the beautifully sick and twisted universe that this game takes place in, but every time I started to get really into the game, the terrible controls would pull me right back to reality.

 

Ultimate Body Blows

 

Ultimate Body Blows

 

 

I knew what I was getting myself in to 2/5

Like most games I purchase these days, I wait until there is a sale, so I didn’t mind putting in my 6 digital quarters into this fighter. 

The gameplay is barely functional, you use the thumbstick to move and then press 1 button along with a directional movement to attack. It is a real shame, since the character sprites, special moves, and background all look like they’d be in a legitimate fighting game.

If you are allowed to pick a main after only 30 minutes of gameplay, then I’d go with Kai-Ti. There is no actual story that I’m aware of, but Kai-Ti seemed to be some sort of amazon warrior. I also favored Maria who looked like an early 90’s fitness enthusiast. She always had a hand on her forehead, I assumed it was to keep her hair looking good, but she may have just had a headache from being put in this game over Street Fighter II. Inferno was another character I thought was cool, mostly because he reminded me of Cinder from Killer Instinct. 

I’d really love to see someone take all of these old characters and do a complete overhaul on the gameplay to be more like Street Fighter II, combine that with a simple story mode, and a Ultimate Body Blows Remaster could really be something special. 

Controls:

E = Up Thumbstick 

X = Down Thumbstick

S = Left Thumbstick

D = Right Thumbstick

J = A Button 

Enter = Menu Button

Splitgate

 

Splitgate

 

 

Splitgate is a Halo clone with portal guns, but I find myself having more fun playing this over Halo Infinite. I'm not sure what mild tweak to the gameplay is the reason for this, but it works. The portal guns are a great way to move around the map and get surprise kills on enemies, however you don’t use them all that often, the main focus is still on who’s the better shot.

Pros:

-Buffed version of Halo.

-Portal guns.

-Aesthetically pleasing.

-Rewards for leveling up are better than Halo Infinite.

Cons:

-No vehicles, if they could have added in just one Warthog, or some sort of Warthog with a turret gun and a portal gun, that would be awesome.

Halo Infinite Multiplayer: 8 out of 10 Mountain Dews

Splitgate: 9 out of 10 Moon Mists

Halo Infinite Multiplayer

 

Halo Infinite Multiplayer

 

 

Campaign:

The campaign is not out yet, but the latest trailer gave me such a massive eye roll that I almost fell backwards in my chair. I will probably cash in my 1 month of free Game Pass I have laying around and play it eventually, but I am not paying for that lmao.

Multiplayer:

The multiplayer is the main reason people play Halo and it’s free on both Steam and XBOX, so none of the systems for tender fellas. Yes the leveling up system is a nightmare, and yes you will have to sell your organs to buy the latest 20 dollar Master Chief helmet with cat ears, but 343 did a surprisingly awesome job with making the multiplayer feel like old school Halo. It's worth checking out even if you are terrible at first person shooters, just be like me and drive around the Ghost around pretending you are playing Mario Kart 64.

The multiplayer gets 8 out of 10 Mountain Dews

Theme Park

 

Theme Park

 

Great game 5/5

I used to own this on the PS1, and it had been years since I played it. I was kind of stressed out and figured this carefree game about making a theme park would be a great way to relax. So I set the game to full sim mode and put in my cheat codes, and I take my time making sure everything is how I want it before the park opens. Well apparently I took a little bit too long, since my park had turned zero profit and went bankrupt, they showed a cut scene of a guy jumping out of a window lmao. So note to self, if you are playing the game purely to relax and create, put it on sandbox mode.

While it’s not something I am going to sink a ton of time into with my modern day attention span, it is still a classic game loaded with a ton of nostalgia that I see myself revisiting many more times over the years.

 

Sengoku 3

Sengoku 3

 

A very okay beat em’ up 3/5

The game was okay, nothing about the game really stood out, but it wasn’t a bad game either. It took me maybe 60-90 minutes to complete, so I got my 8 quarters worth out of it. 

You start off with 4 characters to choose from, as you progress you unlock 2 more characters, although I believe once you play through the game a second time, you have to re-unlock those additional 2 characters, which is kind of lame. I enjoyed switching between the characters, but found myself favoring Kurenai the most. 

Unless I find someone to play the game with, I don’t see myself replaying this one any time soon.

 

Real Bout Fatal Fury 2: The Newcomers

 

Real Bout Fatal Fury 2: The Newcomers

 

I see Mai, I buy 5/5

90’s fighting games are a weakness of mine, the game has Mai Shiranui in it, no flaws that I noticed, and I got my 8 quarters worth out of it.

 

Jill Of The Jungle: The Complete Trilogy

 

Jill Of The Jungle: The Complete Trilogy

 

Give it a chance 4/5

My 90’s gaming experience was mostly limited to console and arcade gaming, so getting to experience some of these old DOS games for the first time is a real treat for me. The game is free, so you’re not risking much to take 15 minutes out of your day to try it. While the gameplay is far from smooth, I still found the puzzles and platforming all pretty relaxing and satisfying.

 

Mortal Kombat 1+2+3 (DOS)

 

 

Mortal Kombat 1+2+3 (DOS)

 

My favorite fighting game series 3/5

I miss the Mortal Kombat Arcade Kollection on the PS3 like you wouldn’t believe. 

PROS: It’s still technically Mortal Kombat 

CONS: Only has the vanilla MK3 and not Ultimate MK3, no online play, setting up the controller is annoying, I could only ever get the thumbstick to work and not the D-pad, screen was all stretched out on mine (maybe there is a fix), the character select screen for MK3 only gives you what feels like a millisecond to select a character. 

THE CONTROLLER ISSUE: I am extremely new to PC gaming and even I was able to figure out how to get a controller working, just follow that guy in the reviews tutorial. I set my layout how I had it for the MK Arcade Kollection on the PS3. Controller used: 8BitDo SN30 pro+ 

W = Up Thumbstick 

S = Down Thumbstick 

A = Left Thumbstick 

D = Right Thumbstick

G = Square (HP) 

F = Triangle (HK) 

Q = R1 (BLOCK)

E = Cross (LP) 

R = Circle (LK) 

T = L1 (Run) 

F1 = Start 

F10 = Select

MORTAL KOMBAT 

Mortal Kombat Arcade 5/5

Mortal Kombat DOS 5/5

The Mortal Kombat series has been a favorite of mine since I was 10 years old, I still recall being a youngster at the video rental store when a random kid came up to me incredibly excited telling me that I needed to rent Mortal Kombat, I don’t remember his exact phrasing but he was very thrilled about all of the violence, so I was sold lol. 

I had a great time playing Mortal Kombat on the Sega Genesis, I still remember pulling off my first fatality Kano’s Heart Rip, and I quickly took to Sub-Zero as my main, to this day he’s my favorite fighting game character across the fighting game genre. The 2 sequels that followed, combined with the 1995 Mortal Kombat movie, the entire country was swept up in Mortal Kombat fever.

As for the DOS version, the graphics and gameplay seem to be arcade perfect. The kollection would be worth getting for this game alone.

Pros:

-Pretty much a perfect port of Mortal Kombat from the arcade, FeelsGoodMan.

Cons:

-Once in a while you will experience slowdown during a move.

MORTAL KOMBAT II

Mortal Kombat II Arcade 5/5

Mortal Kombat II DOS 4/5

After Mortal Kombat came Mortal Kombat II, which was basically Mortal Kombat on steroids. You had better looking graphics, more fatalities, more characters, and I was most excited to finally be able to play as Reptile, the hidden character from the first Mortal Kombat. I still remember repeatedly gazing over the screenshots in Game Pro magazine over and over before the game hit arcades, I could not wait for this game to be released.

As for the DOS version, the infamous MK AI is remarkably fair in this version of Mortal Kombat II, even Shao Kahn isn’t that bad until he gets you trapped in a corner and starts spamming his Shoulder Attack. The real menace here is Kintaro, every other attack you throw at him results in him catching you, throwing you down, and eating up a huge chunk of your health. My best advice against him is to keep your distance and use lots of projectile attacks. 

I played through the game with every character using the cheat “NO DAMAGE TO P1” just to remember how each character felt to play as, and to see every ending. It was a very satisfying experience other than Kintaro, no amount of cheat Kodes will make that nightmare chore of a character tolerable. I don’t remember him being this hard in the arcade version, you could easily spam Mileena’s Teleport Kick and take care of him.

Something I noticed while playing as Scorpion against the AI was that every single Spear I threw was blocked, and of the couple of dozen Leg Scissors Attacks I attempted, only one of them wasn’t blocked, I can’t remember if it was like this in the arcade or home console versions. I don’t play as Scorpion often, but I could see this being a huge problem for Scorpion mains playing single player.

Pros: 

-Solid port.

-Cheat kodes available.

Cons:

-Once in a while you will experience slowdown during a move.

-Scorpion isn’t worth playing as in single player mode.

-Kintaro is a HORRENDOUS experience and drops the overall score to a 4/5. 

MORTAL KOMBAT 3

Mortal Kombat 3 Arcade 4/5 (only because Ultimate improved on it so much)

Mortal Kombat 3 DOS 3/5 

My childhood memories of Mortal Kombat 3 are also strongly tied to The Mortal Kombat Trilogy. I remember renting Mortal Kombat 3 in the twilight of my Genesis ownership and thinking that it was okay, but what I have really fond memories of was playing Mortal Kombat Trilogy on the PS1. 

First you had Mortal Kombat 3, which was later buffed with more characters and better gameplay in Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3, then Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3 was buffed again featuring characters from the entire trilogy in Mortal Kombat Trilogy, so they all kind of blend together in my mind. Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3 the arcade version using a PS1-PS3 controller is  my most preferred way to play the many forms of this game.

All of that being said, Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3 is my favorite fighting game of all time, I even took a trek to meet Sub-Zero (John Turk), Sonya Blade (Kerri Hoskins), and Sindel (Lia Montelongo) from Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3 at a convention. I’ve noticed people tend to fall into either 1 of 2 camps when it comes to what’s the best Mortal Kombat game, and it’s the Mortal Kombat II Camp and the Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3 Camp. I definitely fall into the Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3 Camp as I prefer the combo system they added, it just feels so satisfying landing a big combo. 

As for the DOS version, right out of the gate I’m just disappointed that it’s not Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3, or that it’s not the Mortal Kombat Trilogy, which I looked it up and there is a Mortal Kombat Trilogy DOS version. Also, the AI even with the difficulty set to “wuss” is pretty brutal, and there is little room for error. I’d just recommend playing an arcade port of Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3 or some version of Mortal Kombat Trilogy over Mortal Kombat 3 DOS.

Pros:

-It’s still technically a Mortal Kombat game.

-Cyber Smoke, Shao Kahn, and Motaro are all playable. 

Cons:

-Once in a while you will experience slowdown during a move.

-Even on the easiest setting the AI will eat your lunch.

-You’re better off finding another way to play UMK3 or Mortal Kombat Trilogy.

Mortal Kombat 4

 

Mortal Kombat 4

 

The last Mortal Kombat to hit arcades 3/5

As a massive fan of the first 3 Mortal Kombats, with Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3 being my favorite fighting game of all time, the change in appearance and gameplay that came with Mortal Kombat 4 doesn’t exactly make it my favorite game of all time. Gameplay wise the series never fully recovered again until Mortal Kombat 9 (2011). 

I did own it on the N64 back in the day, and it’s okay if you just want a game to unwind with, you can put it on easy and blaze through the game just for the corny endings. 

My favorite part about the game and the only thing missing from Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3, is the addition of the character Tanya, modeled after the beautiful Lia Montelongo (Sindel UMK3), she’s been my main in the game ever since it came out. 

Out of respect for it being the last Mortal Kombat game to hit arcades, and out of nostalgia for playing it on the N64, it was worth revisiting.

 

Blood: Fresh Supply

Blood: Fresh Supply

 

A dynamite game! 5/5 

I had heard that this game uses the Build Engine which also powers Duke Nukem, and that some people even praise it over Duke Nukem. Gameplay wise they might be right, but I still prefer the one liners, weapons, and babes that Duke Nukem brings to the table over Blood. 

With that being said, it’s a pretty perfect first person shooter, with the exception that some of the levels are a bit confusing to navigate through. I will have most of the enemies defeated and keys collected, yet I’m still endlessly backtracking through a maze trying to find the correct path. I feel like with some of these mazelike levels that my in-game time is going to be around 200 plus hours, like it’s a Fallout game or something LoL, and that is a big complaint, but it’s the only complaint. 

I highly recommend it!

I GOT CALLED A HERETIC  4/5

Excellent level design, creepy atmosphere, and heavy metal music at just the right times.
