An often overrated Final Fantasy title. An impressive game for it’s time, it didn’t age particularly well. It features a nonsensical, disjointed plot full of silly contrivances galore and it doesn’t really take off until about Lake Macalania. After that, it begins to get interesting and intense. It has too many villains, all of which aren’t particularly good and features some pretty horrendous English voice acting and localization that hurt the experience quite a bit. It’s better than 12 and 13 but is a decidedly average, low frills Final Fantasy overall and felt lacking compared to the PS1 games. It had a horrendous gimmicky sequel that undermined the poignant, emotional ending it had.

Get the Final Fantasy 10mug. Aka the worst Final Fantasy game ever made. Featuring a weak, incomprehensible plot, hammy voice acting, cliche anime tropes and repetitive gameplay. Also paved the way for 2 completely worthless sequels of diminishing returns. The games were so terrible, it almost rendered the Final Fantasy series obsolete. Thankfully, 14 and 15 got things back on track although not immediately.

Get the Final Fantasy 13mug. One of the weaker Metal Gear Solid main titles, along with Metal Gear Solid 5. The plot is an incomprehensible and nonsensical mess and it has some pretty bland level design for most of the game. The best parts of an otherwise forgettable entry were the Tanker and Arsenal Gear segments that comprise 30% of the game. Those were peak Metal Gear Solid experiences. Otherwise, it’s just a bland rehash of Metal Gear Solid.

Get the Metal Gear Solid 2mug. An often underrated but worthy addition to the Final Fantasy series. It takes a couple play throughs to understand it’s genius.
Final Fantasy 8 is so underrated.

Get the Final Fantasy 8mug. One of the shoddiest Resident Evil games ever made overstuffed with shark jumping nonsense. Only good thing this trainwreck gave us was Resident Evil 7 and an all around new direction for the series that better combined survival horror and action.

Get the Resident Evil 6mug. One of the poorest Bond movies ever made. It’s directed like the fence scene from Taken 2 and is like a cheap Bourne knockoff featuring a stupid plot about a little French man hijacking Bolivia’s water supply to then ransom it back to them for discount S.P.E.C.T.R.E and features very flat performances all around. One of the biggest boils on the James Bond franchise’s ass along with SPECTRE, Die Another Day, A View To A Kill, Licence To Kill and Tomorrow Never Dies. Only good thing this load of rubbish gave us was Skyfall 4 years later.

Get the Quantum Of Solacemug. A generally underrated Final Fantasy game that was actually the most enjoyable one since Final Fantasy 9. It’s biggest shortcoming is the way they presented the story but with The Royal Edition it’s a pretty good experience with some pretty good DLC episodes. Definitely a Godsend after the disaster of the Lightning Trilogy.

Get the Final Fantasy 15mug.
