UNBEATABLE [white label] is a great intro to rhythm games and is a great one in general, source; am a beginner.

Well I have played *some* rhythm games but none of them stuck to me, they were either incredibly hard or I just didn't find them fun. UNBEATABLE [white label] though is insanely accessible to newcomers with it's simple control scheme and beautiful visuals.

Instead of having 4 buttons like most rhythm games this one utilizes only two but uses it in a smart way that makes the player feel like they are doing so much with only two buttons. The visuals for this game are also fantastic with this Paper Mario-esque art style mixed with an anime aesthetic, all of that with the VHS filter on top of it makes for a visually entertaining game.

The soundtrack is amazing, albeit small for now. Most of the songs collected for play have this indie/alt/punk rock feel to all of them which I think really fits with the anti-establishment narrative this game has.

And to think that this is *merely* a DEMO for the actual game, which is supposed to be a sort of rhythm RPG experience, so much to be excited for this game.

Highly recommend to those new or experienced in rhythm games. amazing game.

Jet Set Radio holds up surprisingly well 22 years later.

The general aesthetic and style this game has oozes on to you in the title screen alone. Exploring Tokyo-to, Bantam Street, and Grind Square was always fun albeit frustrating at times.

This being a 22 year old game the general controls for movement and spray painting are what you'd expect, nothing too clunky or annoying, I definitely can *not* say the same thing about the camera system though, chunkiness levels are through the roof with it where it goes all over the damn place when accessing small areas such as a tunnel or small alleyway. But it being a 22 year old game I sort of expected that and just learned to deal with it.

If you're going into Jet Set Radio expecting a fun nostalgic time, go for it, fully delivers on that front. Even if you're not the nostalgic type or is your first time playing it, I still recommend it because overall it's a fantastic game and has cemented itself as a pop culture icon of it's time.

9/10

Oh. My. GOD. I LOVE YOU CRYSTAL DYNAMICS

The game is a work of art, literally, any scene of the game can be called ART.

And the combat and crafting made the game better! It gives more than one way to kill your enemies. Some enemies are a pain though, like the Deathless, the only way I can kill any of them is by using "Greek Fire" or the rifle.

The story in my opinion is the best part, many memorable characters, quests, loved it. It also gave Tomb Raider are more "stealthy" style by jumping from above and stabbing them or subduing them from behind using your bow.

And the puzzles got better, using anything from an arrorw and some rope to a trebuchet!

Overall I think this is the perfect game for any Tomb Raider fan. 10/10!
