Image
       Welcome back mates, we are now on entry 4 of this blog and I am very excited to be doing todays review because its a game I have been going back to recently and I have been in quite the mood for it. This one is a bit different as this was not a game I initially grew up on, but I have become a fan of it thanks to an online friend of mine. It is considered one of the greatest fighting games of all time and helped start the fighting game competition craze we all know today. That's right today we will be looking at Street Fighter 2 Super Turbo: Hyper Fighting, released on the SNES in 1993.    Street Fighter is another one of those series where you have at least heard of the name before, it has been referenced countless times ranging from rapper Nikki Minaj, to Family Guy and even by the demonic clown Pennywise himself. It is one that needs no introduction, but for context, 1 or 2 players pick from a colorful cast of various characters from different part...

      Welcome back to Gamer Goodybag my fellow nerds, hope everyone is doing well and thank you for returning for returning for the newest entry. My preamble will not be as long as the previous posts do not worry, I just want to say if anyone here has played any of the games I reviewed and want to offer their opinions of if they enjoyed them or not, feel free to leave a comment down below I love hearing stories about these kinds of things. Alright, let's not waste any time and jump straight into today's topic. Sonic 2 for Sega Genesis released in 1992.             Despite being born in 1999, I had a lot of fond memories playing many video games that were before my time due to hand me downs from family and neighbors, as well as playing rereleases of many games before that era on newer consoles at the time. Regardless if you are a regular or casual gamer,  chances are you have played at least one Sonic game in your life. I fell in lov...

Entry 1- Persona 3 review

 Greetings fellow nerds, This is Iron Pearl here. Welcome to the first edition of Gamer Goodybag, a blog I have created to  discuss what I consider to be some of the greatest video games of all time, absolute must plays for those who have not played them before. Ever since the first video games were ever created, there has been a wide community of people who love and appreciate the medium for what it is, myself included. I have been playing games since I was in preschool so I have tried so many different games both good and bad. My goal is to persuade the reader on why they must play these games I love so dearly. Without further adieu, lets dive right on in with our first game.                      Persona 3 was originally released as part of the Persona series (A spinoff of the Shin Megami Tensei series) in July 2006 for the PlayStation 2 in Japan, before getting released in other territories of the world between 200...
