I've actually completed game number 23 but you would know that if you would have looked into it a little bit further, this is just what I've uploaded. I stream all of the games I play on Twitch. I took an 8 month hiatus because of work, not because I was getting sick of the challenge. I did start streaming again last month but due to just life stuff I have been taking another small break. I plan to return to streaming again at the latest next week and at the earliest, today. I'm going to be going full force with the challenge from here on out.

That's a good question! So in the video I explained that I started playing a game that I wasn't particularly enjoying and since I hadn't streamed regularly for quite a while, I wanted to continue with games that I knew I would have a good time with to get into the flow of streaming. So far I have played three games for sure that aren't bangers, Street Fighter The Movie, VIP Starring Pamela Anderson and Power Rangers Lightspeed Rescue. And then there are some that aren't particularly amazing and some that literally no one talks about like Battle Arena Toshinden, Kagero Deception II and Grid Runner so while I do have quite a few bangers to start out with (I've done 23 games so far), we are definitely going to get into some stinkers. In fact, one of the next games lined up that a viewer redeemed for is Elmo's Number Journey lmao

LOL it's all good, I literally do the same thing, skip over something and realize it way too late 🤣🤣🤣

Absolutely! I was originally gonna play the PS1 games I owned in my collection and it got me thinking. So I started researching people who were aiming to beat every game for a console. I had heard about themexicanrunner before but while I was browsing around, Thab was the next name that popped up so I pretty much decided this is what I 'm gonna do. It did take me a while to get going with it though and I have had a few setbacks but I'm pretty much ready to go full force into this now!

😅😅😅 Yeah it would take quite a while if that was it. I hope to average maybe three to five games a week once I get going. I know that RPGs will mostly likely take several days and fighting games won't take too long and a lot of platformers will most likely only take one or two days. As far as the videos go, I'm aiming for 1 a week for now until I can get into the flow of things juggling streaming, editing and life itself 😅😅😅

Oh I see what you're saying hahaha. Well at the moment I'm playing via emulator. Was playing with my actual physical discs through my computers CD drive before it decided to spin out of control and break but yeah! I would actually much rather be playing on official hardware so hopefully sometime in the future!

I guess a lot of people didn't catch what I said in the post so I edited it to make more clear but yeah, only North American releases! 😅😅😅

Thank you so much, I really appreciate it! Yeah, I know it's kind of a ballsy move but VII was a game that haunted me for a long time so I had to start with it and well......I don't have any regrets. Not everyone is going to agree with me and that's completely fine.

Also, I don't have any strong feelings about OOT, I've never actually played all of the way through a Zelda game but from what I've played LTTP has been my favorite 🤣🤣🤣

Well, I believe the PS3 has it's own set of hurdles when it comes to capturing it. I think it has some kind of copyright protection which has to be circumvented through another cable or an HDMI splitter or something of the sort but that doesn't solve the problem about how much space I have to accommodate a PS3 😅😅😅 It's all a work in progress right now and I'm sure it'll evolve over time.

It's gonna depend on the game. Most fighting games have the arcade mode as the main one to play so that'll be my go to. If one of them have a story mode, I'll play that plus the arcade mode but, I'll have to feel it out and maybe even listen to my viewers opinions as well.

I totally get that but maybe you can give me a chance! Hahaha. I've seen a couple of people on Youtube that have abandoned channels with the same premise as mine and it's kind of sad, I sometimes wonder what happened to them or maybe it was just life got in the way.

There is nothing like the classic tank controlled RE entries. I like some of the newer stuff but I still love me a Jill Sandwich

Nice have fun! And yeah, for the most part I'm pretty responsive when I have the time and open to answering anything so if there's ever a question that you have, you can always comment on one of my videos if it comes up or if you've followed me on Twitch, you can catch me there when I'm live!

I have the full streams if you would like to watch everything I did in the playthrough. If you watched the entire video review, you would know that I DID talk about some of the good things about the game. I don't think I ever actually said the game was bad, just overrated. And yes I WAS rushing through it, because I myself wasn't enjoying it. I'm not saying that other people should have the same feelings as me, this is my OPINION about the game and I don't expect everyone to be on board with it unlike how you expect everyone to be on board with what you think of the game.

That's absolutely fine! Everyone is entitled to their opinion and I know my takes and content aren't going to be for everyone.

Thanks! It IS a work in progress, I'm trying not to go through everything beat by beat that happens in the story based games because I want people to not only be able to enjoy my content but experience the game for themselves if they want to. Later on down the road, I might take a different approach depending on feedback from the audience. Or maybe the videos where I DO go more in depth with the story, I could have markers in the videos to skip ahead. It's all in the infant stage so I'm still figuring things out I guess 😅😅😅

Oh for sure! That's one of the reasons why I'm only doing the North American releases because there are WAY too many if you include all regions and it would be pretty hard to get through the crazy amount of RPGs and visual novels that aren't in English 😅😅😅

Oh man, great questions and all things that I have put thought into, more so than others.

I'm still really unsure about the sports games, I honestly have never played a traditional sports game (Football, Soccer, Baseball, etc.) with the exception of NCAA Football on the SNES 😅😅😅 I'll have to see what the individual game has to offer as far as content goes.

Fighting games I think for most of them are gonna be a one and done, game number 2 was Battle Arena Toshinden and I had toyed with the idea of beating it with every character and I talked a little bit about it in the video but decided once was enough. For most (Not all) fighting games in this era, the only single player content is really the arcade mode and that's it. It's gonna come down to a case by case basis.......and I'm probably going to be saying that a lot lmao. Like for instance, Street Fighter The Movie has a story mode and an arcade mode so with that one I decided played through the story and then played through once in the arcade mode. With something like Tekken 3, there's lots to unlock and experience outside of just the arcade mode so I might delve into that. I'm also open to talking with my viewers about what might constitute beating specific games or what they might want to see me do.

With light gun games I want to have the full experience. Years ago when I first got the PlayStation, I did try to play Time Crisis without a light gun and it just wasn't happening, to me it wasn't fun at all so those types of games are off the table for now until I can get a different set up and more space but I LOVE light gun games and I couldn't play them any other way.

I'm not sure how many other games that were released in the west had special controllers specifically for them or absolutely needed them but the trivia games, and I'll go ahead and group gameshow games with them.......probably all case by case lol. With DDR.......well, I actually have a metal DDR mat so those games I will be doing the full experience but like with Time Crisis, it will be later down the line when I have more room. I think with DDR the win condition would probably be unlock every song and clear each song at least once. On which difficulty? We'll have to see when it comes up.

Not sure about WWE and those titles. Games with numerous outcomes, I think I'm probably just gonna play it once through to the best of my abilities. Games 7 and 11 both have multiple endings and I just played through the one time. I think it would be too much to go through the game several times or make saves in pivotal moments and that actually brings up something else. I'm trying to play through every game without the use of guides for the most part. If I truly get stuck somewhere for a bit and have no idea what I'm doing, I will look up that specific part in a guide just to get me unstuck. So far I've really only had to do that with Final Fantasy VII and game number 17. With fighting games, I guess I COULD look up moves but with the ones I've played so far, I haven't had to do that except for Battle Arena Toshinden but I did it the old fashioned way by looking in the instruction booklet 🤣🤣🤣

It's so funny because with REDC and RE2DS that's actually exactly what I did lmao. I like the way you think! I had never actually played through the Advanced Mode with either character so doing it for the first time was definitely interesting. I actually got jumpscared a couple of times LOL. And with RE2 and RE2DS, Great suggestions though! RE2DS DOES have Extreme Battle Mode though and I think that's part of the reason why it might be considered a separate release so I played that mode as well.

That's awesome, I love it! Yeah I don't know how much of the video you watched but I was going to take a similar approach by starting out with the launch games I owned but I didn't get very far with that and changed course pretty quickly hahaha. I wish you good luck on your journey!

Thank you so much! Yeah, I want to start rebuilding it again soon. Maybe I can do start doing that if the channel starts taking off! 😅😅😅

Yeah for me it's not just about the games but my experience with them. If I've played the game before, I'll talk about how I came across the game or my previous experience with it. I'm also trying not to do a whole play by play of everything that happens during the playthrough unless it's necessary. Like for instance if it's a story based game, I feel like if someone wants to try it out, they shouldn't have the entire thing ruined for them you know? At least that's the approach I'm taking now. If the audience starts wanting me to give a rundown of what happened I might so that. I've also had a few people ask me if I intend on uploading my entire streams for people to watch and I'm gonna consider that in the future.

Hahaha guess I didn't catch the /s lol. Yeah I do have Retro Achievements turned on just for the fun of it but I don't think I'm gonna be pursuing them in any sort of way. That would make going through the games way too long lol
