Best/Worst video games you have played?

I started a season of Super Tecmo as the Oilers on my 700+ game NES. went 12-4 as I lost my last 4 games. For some reason the NES Super Tecmo AI starts calling everything you call. I also lost Warren Moon and had to limp into the playoffs with Cody Carlson. Squeaked by the Seahawks and the Dolphins then somehow crushed Minnesota in the Super Bowl.

The next thing I am going to do is check out the other sport games. First up is basketball.
 
It's worth mentioning Inscryption. This is a card game wrapped in a horror premise where you're in a cabin with a serial killer that is essentially playing the "game master".

So it's both an escape room and the underlying card game is pretty damn good. My one gripe is that every time you die you create a new card, and if you create a godly one and then draw that on a run, it doesn't feel like you're really kicking ass as much as just cheesing through.

I like how the PS5 controller flashes colors and plays the horror elements directly through the controllers speakers though. Amazing game.
 
I bought the Gears of War remaster for PS5 for nostalgia purposes since that was one of the biggest games when I was in school. Wasn't into the obsession with Halo/TF2 like the rest of Seattle at the time (although the Left4Dead billboard in the U-District was always pretty cool).

Still a great local coop game and now running at 60-120 fps with graphics touched up to the point where it passes as pretty modern.
 
And you would risk burning down the house by taking out the 9Volt batteries out of the smoke detectors to play this game! I still have mine. They should have marketed the plug in option aux cord better. Football II was great as well because you could pass. After college, we had Football II lying around and we would play each other. One rule we had was you always had to punt on 4th down. Good times.

As a kid I had Soccer and Soccer II and Basketball and Basketball II.
 
This was a shitty game. Was fun for about 10 minutes.
