 Games finished in April 2015:

Super Smash Bros. for 3DS                          8.5
Red Faction 2                                                7.0

Legacy of Kain - Soul Reaver                       8.0
Kenka Bancho - Badass Rumble                   7.0


 Rather slow, but solid month. I was busy studying and playing Team Fortress 2 and getting stuck on that one mission in Jeanne D'Arc which kinda halted my progress. It's also a teensy bit early to close the month, but I very much doubt I'll be finishing any game before April ends, so it's appropriate, if hasty. The Legacy of Kainathon has begun and it's been a solid series so far, not counting Blood Omen 2, but seeing how little it adds to the LoK mithos... why count it in?

Game of April:
 'Tis true, Soul Reaver was not the game I rated the highest... but I just couldn't. I wanted to, I really, really did, because I enjoyed the characters and most of the gameplay oh so much, but there were glaring flaws that I just couldn't turn a blind eye to. That said, Raziel is probably one of the greatest characters ever created, and quite probably,a kind of protagonist that we won't be seeing any time soon. Freaky things like Raziel just don't sell as much as bald soldiers or underaged, oversexualized japanese girls do.

 Runner-up:
 Smash is Smash, and if you've a problem with it, better... Settle. It. In. SMASH! But yeah, it's everything I hoped it'd be. And there's really little else left for me to say!
