[Thoughts] F-Zero 99

F- Zero finally gets a new game, but what do I think as someone who isn't much of a F-Zero fan?

When this game was announced during the direct I was interested in giving it a go for sure. My history with f zero essentially is a few games on F-Zero GX and the original F-Zero. I wasn't too interested in the game as I felt it lacked the chaos of games like Mario Kart. Upon having played this new game several times now, I have formed a solid opinion on it.

So I want to start of by saying this game is pretty cool. It is very fun and I feel like it has the element of chaos I thought the normal games lacked due to how many players are on the screen. The tracks are pretty cool too with some decent variance to them, Sand Ocean being my favourite. The customisation is a nice part of the game, though I do wish there were a few more default options available. The events are interesting, with my favourite being the team battles. These team battles are actually my favourite mode in the game. It's a bit sad that those aren't available to play all the time though, but they do show up a fair amount so it's nothing too annoying.

Tetris 99 I think still has this beat for my favourite free Nintendo online game, though it could change as time goes on. The main reason I liked Tetris 99 was because of the collabs it had with other games. I don't think we will see anything like that in F zero 99 sadly. However, I do like the gameplay of F zero 99 more than Tetris 99. Tetris 99 was supported for a very long time so we'll see if F-Zero 99 gets the same amount of support, I don't think it will but we'll see.

Overall, I would definitely recommend F zero 99, even for non fans of the series, it's quite fun. With it being free as well you can't go wrong. It's not going to be a game I play often personally, but I will play whenever I feel like it or new content appears for sure.

That's it for this blog, stay connected!

A near godly experience made slightly mortal by one glaring issue source: www.playstation.com ~ Intro ~ God of War (2018) is a 3rd person action game made by Santa Monica Studio. The game is currently available on both PS4 and PC. This title is sort of a reboot of the series with it taking a different direction from the traditional hack and slash formula of the original God of War games. I haven't played any of the other God of War games so this has been my introduction into the series. I have wanted try this series for a while, as I have seen good things about it. So, starting with this reboot felt like a great entry point. With that said though, let's get into my thoughts. ~ Positives ~ let's go over the positives first. To start with, the story of the game is good. This game's story is all about fulfilling a last wish, though there are many road blocks the main characters must face along the way. As I was playing I found myself intrigued to find out what would happe

Mario Party 3 is a great addition to the line up. The fact that it will have online co-op is a big change.

The player with the most stars at the end wins, it really is that simple. The most fun aspects to Mario Party games though are the mini games.
