Thank you for the heads up! Iโm going to reach out to him ๐
I needed to play some multiplayer in Uncharted 4 to earn trophies for the Platinum and was quickly reminded how fun the MP actually is! It's nothing too terribly special, but it does harken back to an era when even your story-based games had MP. Not all were good, but Uncharted's was real solid.

My Top 10 MOST Anticipated Games of All Time. It was tough getting the list down to 10! Some real surprises, deep cuts, and a lot of nostalgia for past console generations. Consider tuning in!

Itโs been a solid start to the year tackling my backlog. Playing some great games for the first time, revisiting the Far Cry games for trophy clean-up, and finally committing to a Final Fantasy X playthrough (still in-process, but loving it)! Some recent screenshot highlights ๐ธ

Thanks to anyone whoโs supported the channel, I recently surpassed 4,000 subscribers! I havenโt always been consistent with the channel, but these past 2 years I have. Itโs been a ton of fun. New video goes live tomorrow sharing my 2026 backlog goals!
I'm not on TrueTrophies...yet ๐
I'm genuinely not sure if there would be enough benefit for me to create a profile or not. I've just never been on it!
Would love to see you create trophy videos of any kind! It's been fun to get back into trophy hunting and creating Platinum goals for myself ๐
I definitely plan to play the sequel! I made it about 10 hrs into DS1 when I first played it before putting it down, and Iโm about 15 hrs into my second attempt. I just really struggle with the slow pacing in the early episodes, but Iโve heard thatโs greatly improved in DS2.
I was surprised by how good it was! Each of the main levels are open zones with tons of collectibles to find, with additional quests to complete for characters from the movie. The game controls and plays similar to the PS1 Spyro games imo. Worth checking out for fans of 3D platformers for sure!
Sometimes I feel legally obligated to play a game, like Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer. A collectathon 3D platformer based on the 1964 classicโฆand itโs actually good! Who doesnโt love a little seasonal jank? #JustBeatIt @polykillpodcast.bsky.social
2025 was a year where I played a lot of older games via the Classics Catalog, still enjoyed plenty of new releases, and beat far more games than I usually do. Hereโs the total list. 42 beats!
It's that time!

I love revisiting games that I initially dropped, and after a 2nd attempt, itโs as if Iโm playing a different game. The gameplay clicks in a way it didnโt previously. The story gets its hooks in me. I canโt say confidently I know exactly whatโs going on in Death Stranding, but I do love this game!

Just finished editing my 2025 GOTY video. Most Disappointing games, Honorable Mentions and of course my Top 10 of 2025 are all captured. It's nearly 40 minutes long. SO much to unpack for another outstanding year of gaming. It'll go live Saturday, so please stay tuned!
I only made it 8-10 hrs in when I originally played Death Stranding, but I really want to play the second game. Before we do that, time to restart the original and play it to completion. This opening is still just as wild as the first time I played it ๐

My Yooka-Laylee and Spyro collection got a bit bigger recently. A good friend painted this beautiful photo of my 3D platformer pals. Couldnโt be happier with the final result. Thank you, @tvandlust.bsky.social ! ๐๐

Absolutely incredible! I asked Craig if he could do a follow-up painting to something he did for me several years ago (pictured below). The only instructions I gave for each was โa picture of these two characters!โ He crushed it both times. Thanks Craig! ๐
I spelled it wrong twice! ๐ But yes, a really neat console, especially if you still have your favorite N64 carts around. I'm all about playing games as conveniently as possible now (w/out just emulating lol). I love that I can play region free N64 games, and original controllers plug in as well!
My Black Friday pickups! Plus, the Analog 3D finally arrived! Iโm planning to focus much more on my Nintendo backlog in 2026, and the Analog 3D and Switch 2 will certainly help with that. Iโve already cleared a few games from the Switch backlog, so off to a decent start!

I told myself I was going to wait on getting a Switch 2 for at least a year or moreโฆthat all changed recently. Tune in to find out why I bought a Switch 2 and what I think about the console so far!
