@bobbybless219.bsky.social#OverallThoughts: Netflix's #Below is a perplexing limited series. On one hand, if it were intentionally made to be reminiscent of Roger Corman's later films... they passed with flying colors. If not, then it's just a sloppy series that ultimately spirals into laughably bad territory.

@bobbybless219.bsky.social#OverallThoughts: Featuring a solid art style, music, pacing & forgiving challenge, @tophatstudios.bsky.social delivers a Hell of a surprise in #WellDweller that is sure to scratch the itch of any fan of the Metriodvania genre.
Well Dweller
9/10
@bobbybless219.bsky.social#OverallThoughts: Being the first proper sequel in almost 20 years, #MetroidDread tries to capture that same sense of uneasiness that Metroid Fusion had - &, to an extent, it does w/a solid story. Unfortunately, it stumbles along w/ inconsistent mechanics & long loading times.
Metroid Dread
8/10
@bobbybless219.bsky.social#OverallThoughts: When putting aside a few inconsistencies (hit boxes, damage output) & hellacious RNG for a particular boss, #MetroidFusion is not only a remarkable addition to the franchise but also a top tier title for the GBA.

@bobbybless219.bsky.social#OverallThoughts: Whether it's the graphics (for its time), music, story or pacing, Nintendo's #SuperMetroid truly is a magnificent entry in the franchise. The only downside are the frustrations with some mechanics (wall jump, Screw Attack) not always responding.

@bobbybless219.bsky.social#OverallThoughts: When it comes to remakes, #MetroidZeroMission is up there as one of the best out there. The issues it has comes from the frustrations of a tiny hit box on a few bosses & getting stuck in death loops.

@bobbybless219.bsky.social#OverallThoughts: Revelations was a great wrap up for Altaïr's story, & the 2011 animated short film #AssassinsCreedEmbers follows suit for Ezio in an equally heartbreaking manner.
Assassin's Creed: Embers
8/10
@bobbybless219.bsky.social#OverallThoughts: When you consider it as the game finale to the "Ezio Trilogy", #AssassinsCreedRevelations is a step above Brotherhood as it contains 2/3 of a really good story. That final third (the Desmond part), however, is an absolute dud.
Assassin's Creed: Revelations
7.5/10
@bobbybless219.bsky.social#OverallThoughts: The original adaptation of #TheRunningMan definitely isn't a technically sound film. With that said, it remains a fun - albeit prophetic - watch with a plentiful amount of cheesy 80's action film goodness.
