 It was a decent month, mostly games I liked or had fun with. Evolution was a total letdown! I had been aching to play it for so long... And finally, finally I can say that I finished Lunar - Silver Star properly, a game I started over 5 times on the PS1, heh! AND KAMEN RIDER GENERATION 2 WAS BADASS. BADASS. For some reason, I also played... rhythm games, and Patapon totally broke me, I had never felt so defeated before, not in recent memory anyways. I might, MIGHT give it another go later down the road, something about leaving a game unfinished doesn't sit well with me.


 Game of January 2015:
 This game is an improvement on almost every front of the PS1 version... yet I found myself wanting to play the PS1 version again. It's quite obviously nostalgia, but... I can't fight it. Still, Lunar 1 was a fairly solid RPG, but Lunar 2 will forever be number one in my heart, I just liked the cast a whole lot more. But then again, Dragon Master Alex is badass.

 Runner-up:
 I loved All Kamen Rider Generation 2. I wanted to give it an 8.5, but the game just isn't deep enough.... it's hard to explain, I loved the game, but I know that it's far from being a great beat'em up. Still, it's my blog, so I should be able to do whatever I want.... Ah, whatever. I kept playing this game long after I finished it, and I still find myself longing to play it again right now. It's just so much fun, you get so many riders, even if at their core they all play the same, and having an ally rider of your choice alongside you.... I dunno, I just love this game.
