    I found a mint copy of Rival Schools at my local game store and picked it up based on your recommendation from your “Games You Can’t Find” video and I’ve been having an absolute blast with it playing with friends!

    Straight-up, I have almost every Nintendo Power stored perfectly in my closet, I see them every day while I'm selecting what to wear. They bring the fondest memories of a time I wish I could revisit.
    I love that you showed them, they're so important to our video gaming culture.
    Thank you for another wonderful Sunday post.

    FF7 Rebirth is so amazing that I think it's a dream come true. I am loving every moment of the 60 hours I have played, and I'm still in chapter 11. It's clearly a very nostalgic game made with a lot of passion and I didn't expect it to be that good, I had high expectations but WOW.

    Johnny I hope you can speak one day about how you and your wife cope gaming with parenting, I have a 1 year old baby and we don't want her to watch any screen so I just play after 10PM, sometimes I cannot play cause I am falling asleep!! I am thinking about buying a ps portal. Best regards

    • @airdrighmor1439

      I also have a 14 month old daughter…I play most of my video games during nap time when I don’t have work (rarely) or after 11. I’ve been really enjoying shorter games though! Recently played Firewatch and Edith Finch because I could tear through them over a few nights. And then I have a longer soulslike I keep going back to.

    • @codysvlogdays

    • @MCBRAWR
      @MCBRAWR Před 2 měsíci +13

      Get a steamdeck, not a portal.
      You can do everything a portal does (PS5 streaming) with the added benefits of the steam store & ability to install emulation software for retro use.

That's considerably more than I wanted to pay for it, but I haven't had any luck finding a reasonably priced copy online, it was in beautiful condition, I like supporting brick-and-mortar game stores, and I have been wanting to play it for a while. I'm popping it in for the first time tonight, psyched to see what all the hype is about.
