Like most Ratchet and games, I loved ToD but prefer A Crack in Time. That's my favorite 

Stage Select:

3. Every company having a mascot- It was fun having someone representing what a video game company was about. Mario, Sonic, Crash, and Mega Man all had their own style and were good indicators of how their company made games. Then Microsoft made Master Chief, a mascot with no face, and everyone stopped caring. Who's EA's mascot? A loot box?

2. Every big publisher trying every genre- It was neat seeing every company have their own take on a genre. Square and Enix didn't just make RPGs, Capcom gave us Breath of Fire, Nintendo made Earthbound, Sega had Phantasy Star, and Konami had Suikoden. When Resident Evil came out we got to see Silent Hill and Parasite Eve 2. Now it feels like they don't care about giving their own spin on a genre or idea but just chasing a trend to make money off of it. 

1. Sega consoles- When Sony, Microsoft, and Nintendo design a piece of hardware, they base it on what they think will make money. When Sega made one, they based it on what they thought was cool. It's obvious why Sega doesn't make consoles with that mentality, but I miss ahead of their time ideas like the Sega Channel, Sega CD, and VMU.

Cage Match:

I haven't played either but Downpour is the newer game and is made by Konami so Homecoming gets my vote. Because once HD consoles hit, the newer the Konami game, the more likely it is to be awful.

I've been wanting to replay a Ratchet game but may just wait for the new one announced for PS5.

I wouldn't call it bad but it wasn't good. It also came out when the series reinvented itself with SotN and a year before the Gameboy got its second wind with Pokémon, neither of which helped its reputation 

Yeah that's because Konami wants everyone to forget about it. But it's the only one to Star a female Belmont which I thought was really cool.

Stage Select: 

3. Church of the Atom (Fallout 3)- I love how no matter what you tell them, they refuse to believe the nuclear bomb they worship is dangerous. You can even blow them all up with it!

2. The Enkindlers (Mass Effect)- Its fun seeing the ancient alien religion theory taken to this extreme. Even more hilarious in Mass Effect 3 when they actually get to meet Javik. 

1. Pokémon Gods- I've been a Pokemon fan since day one so it's been fun seeing the religion get created as the series went on. Legendary Pokémon initially felt like Bigfoot or the Loch Ness Monster, then myths like how a Pokémon resurrected others or three created land, sea and air and are in eternal conflict. Then Diamond and Pearl just threw out Arceus, the god of everything and now doesn't try to be subtle about religion. My favorite part of the game's story now is seeing how the new legendary ones tie into the region's own myths and religion.

Cage Match:

Super Mario World was the first video game I ever played and still my favorite Mario. It wins.

My favorite Castlevania game is Dawn of Sorrow and I'd love to see a second collection with Symphony of the Night and the GBA/DS games. I like this collection a lot but am disappointed it didn't have Rondo of Blood, Castlevania Chronicles for the PS1, and the third GB Castlevania. My favorite in the collection is Bloodlines 

Can we agree a Community movie needs to be about Abed looking for Troy so he can make a movie about their time at Greendale?

I still like Community season 6. The duds are really bland but there's some really funny episodes in there. And if there's one episode they nailed, it's the series finale. Not a perfect episode but perfect for Community  

I have a rule to only go to a wing place that has mango habanero. Not saying they're the only ones I like (though they are very tasty), just that it's a sign the place has their shit together.
