Now to look forward to the Sonic side of things cause the Pac-Man rep in Crossworlds still looks very promising.

Lastly, there was the little collectable figures. It's nice to see some love for Shadow, Tails, Metal, my main man Knucks, and my girl Amy even if they didn't get to appear physically.

All in all, this was well worth the wait. Hope we get to see something else like this someday.

Generations.. and honestly Robot SpongeBob from BFBB.

The cutscenes were also super charming. Shame there was no voice acting but I kind of expected that, but I found Sonic leaving the gifts for Pac-Man really cute and then the two of them working together to beat Eggman was epic.

The second phase being a runner section feels fitting given the last time we had a Sonic Pac-Man crossover was Sonic Dash.
And while I understand the argument of Death Egg Robot also being overused, I do think it's pretty cool we got a 3D take on him. It feels like a mixture of his fight from-

The Eggman boss fight is probably the weakest part of the DLC as it still suffers from some of the issues I have with the later boss design of the base game. But at the same time, I do find it pretty cool.
Love that the first phase is like a 3D take on the ball and chain from Sonic 1-

The Sonic costume is pretty awesome.
I love that the sound effects change to match that of typical Sonic ones, such as the Rev Roll sounding like the Spindash.
Also when he turns into Super Pac-Man, you get a little animation of him using the emeralds and getting a new hat.
It's so cute.

I know many people are understandably disappointed that it's just Green Hill again and Generations' take at that. Though at the same, it's hard not to see why they went with it.
Personally I think the reuse of Green Hill is only really an issue in regards to the main series, it was fine here.

Speaking of Act 2, I absolutely adore its track. It's pretty much a Sonic styled remix of the Pac-Man World 2 theme and it nails the vibe incredibly so. It's probably my favorite song in the game now besides the Pac-Knight rendition of the Village theme.

Then there's the location itself-

Pac-Man World 3 came out in 2005. I really loved Act 2 especially, it has some of my favorite platforming in the game, especially during its time trial run.

The missions were pretty straight forward. The whole "collect 100 rings and keep them till the end of the stage" mission took me a few tries-

Went through the Sonic DLC for #Pac-Man World 2 Re-PAC and as a whole I really liked it.

I think the level design does a great job balancing both the feel of Generations and the Pac-Man World style, which is even cooler when you remember these are some of the first original World levels since-

I don't think I could realistically pick anything else but Ballora as the answer. As long as I've known you, you've been nothing but a massive fanboy of her, gushing about her nonstop and having the world's largest collection of her merch.

Honorable mention would be the funny cone head.

You know that's a pretty good film but it needs more Minilla.

So, I just found out they've never released a full DVD pack of the 4 OG Direct to DVD Scooby films.
We've had a 2-pack, a 3-pack, and even a 4-pack that randomly had Lock Ness Monster but none that include Cyber Chase.
Do they just hate Cyber Chase or something?

So glad to finally have his mode out of the way. Managed to beat it on my second attempt and even got the achievement for not losing a single lawnmower.
Felt insanely tense during the last few levels though, felt so much relief when it was over.

IT HASN'T EVEN BEEN TWO WEEKS SINCE I FINISHED MY ICE CLIMBER VIDEO, WHAT DO YOU MEAN THERE'S ANOTHER VERSION OF ICE CLIMBER IN ANIMAL CROSSING???
ARE YOU ACTUALLY KIDDING ME RIGHT NOW???

While I still find it a pretty unfitting stage to have in a game centered around Shadow's character, it's honestly one of the strongest stages in the game just due to how well they went about adapting it into a more traditional Sonic stage.
It's easily one of the stages I've replayed the most.

Been seeing several peeps do the whole "ten games to get to know me", so I thought I'd give it a try.
I feel these choices are pretty accurate for myself.

Huge congrats to both of you!

They cooked incredibly hard for their first fully original Springtrap variant, love how he takes cues from the other Springs while still managing to stand out on his own and fit with the rest of the Blighted cosmetics they've done before.
Easily one of the most unique Springs we've ever gotten.

Finally finished my newest video which is a look back at Ice Climber and its various re-releases from over the years.
This is my longest video to date as well, as well as the most ambitious with the art and editing. Hope you enjoy!

You got a pretty epic collection, the statue especially is pretty sweet.

Hello, Jenny.

One moment you're making a theory video about the size of Luigi's dick, the next moment you're playing Toy Bonnie in a Five Nights at Freddy's movie.

Super excited for whenever the Sonic DLC pack releases, I am going to be playing that Day 1 no doubt.
Very recommend this game to anyone if they haven't played it yet, can not stress it enough. Easily one of my favorite games I've played this year.

more fun. I actually look forward to revisiting it the next time I go through the game.
Also, I'm glad I got the game on Switch. Spent my whole playthrough using the Toc-Man costume because it's so cool..

And with how infrequent health pieces appear, it makes them a bit too challenging for their own good at points.

However, I'd say the game's biggest improvement would definitely be the first Ocean stages. Letting the player actually control Pac-Man and have swim around normally makes them so much-

As for the bosses, they're a great upgrade from the original in terms of designs, general patterns, and so on but the removal of checkpoints in between each phase is bizarre.
Especially when they have a mission all about not dying once, even though you get sent back to the very start if you lose.

I'd say my only issues that I hope get addressed in a future update would be the time trials and bosses.

Gold Medals being required for 100% is pretty eh given how strict a lot of them can be. I think Bronze should have been the requirement and Gold be bragging rights.

It feels surreal to see a game like this add so much content that wasn't there before but also be incredibly affordable in a time where companies feel fine releasing bare minimum ports at 40-70.
I had a big grin throughout most of my playthrough, especially with the post game secret boss.
