What did you play today?

Got more progress done in Super Metroid. Thinking I'm getting more in the mindset of the game, since I realized I could use power bombs to blow up the tube in the Motavia transfer between Brimstar and Brimstar's elevator.
 
I beat Disruptor on the PS1. It's the first game Insomniac and they would proceed to work on Spyro afterwards. Disruptor itself is a pretty middling FPS (or, in the terminology of the day, "DOOM clone") with the added hook of psionic powers. It's only four hours and would have made for a decent rental back in '96, but I wouldn't recommend it unless you're really into goofy live-action FMV cutscenes. Had fun streaming it for friends though.

I played 'Kowai Shashin' for the ps1, it's pretty much just spooky spot it. Wouldn't say it was very good. The target placements on the ghost is complete trash, which was the worst part. If it wasn’t so bad I would have actually enjoyed it for all the wackiness

for this one I had to put the curser on the license plate.

It really bugs me how all the photos are irl images, but the MC is a CG anime girl.

When fighting the ghosts, you just do the same combo every time, well there is only like 4 (but I only saw the 4th once) ghost designs for the battles
 
Shining Force 1 has been going back and forth between "tedious goddamn slog"/"kinda cute and fun". I think what really gets my goat is how every other map places you so far away from the enemy you have to spend the first few minutes moving your troops across the map before you see any action. The miss rate also gets frustrating, as does getting screwed on stat growth à la Fire Emblem. But dammit, the game has soul.
