I figured for a few reasons including gotten requested to do it. Why not reveal majority of those 2026 games? I'll quickly list the ones I previously discussed while linking previous blogs to speed things up down below...

2. Clive Barker's Hellraiser: Revival

3. 007 First Light

4. Lego Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight

5. Fatal Frame II: Crimson Butterfly Remake

Alright now I will be going into details over more 2026 games I'm very hype for. My list can easily differ from everyone else's. I just wanted to throw out some possibly amazing games. I know some people close to me instantly knew these were coming. This is going to be quite an year in gaming if things goes well. Here we go with the madness that should going to be 2026 gaming!!!

1. Marvel's Wolverine

I heard about Marvel's Spider-Man game series. Essentially Marvel's answer to Batman: Arkham series. The good ones that Batman series recently haven't been constant. I know they going to do an spin off Wolverine game. Let's be honest, there isn't many decent X-Men or Wolverine games. I really felt they could do a lot with the character.

Hard to say how it'll do against X-Men Origins: Wolverine the better video game. I always been a huge Wolverine fan for a long time. I really wanna feel like the character when I'm playing it. There's a situation that could seriously hurt the game's development. I do know the developers made some truly fantastic games.

Let's be honest, playing as Wolverine like having a power fantasy. In his case, he can regenerate rapidly from many things. You shouldn't don't care to do crazy things. All the possible fun not doing the story lol. Also knowing they have a lot of outfits. I really want them to go the distance with them. What I want more of though is a decent story for the character.

I don't want another variation of a famous Wolverine story that ultimately doesn't stand on it's own. At least make the game better than some Wolverine movies. I felt this game has potential that could differ depending on things since it's a licensed game. I want this to sorta be like Prototype series. I could be neutral at times to help keep things being interesting.

2. Bloodstained: The Scarlet Engagement

I really enjoyed Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night. A spiritual successor to several Castlevania games I really enjoyed. The trailer instantly sold me realizing the steam behind Ritual of the Night doing it. This also going to be an metroidvania with some RPG elements. Some aspects of horror that's gets Devil May Cry epic at times.

The franchise heavily inspired by Castlevania to begin with. I already was an Castlevania fan made this take me my money!!! I may have to wait a long time for remaining DLCs to get added. This is an indie horror game series after all. But a rather impressive one at that to quickly make up for it. Considering Ritual of the Night does things those Castlevania games haven't done before.

I am expecting more of that with the new Bloodstained game. Of course, we gotta talk about the music. The soundtrack with the sound effects could be really great. I also want the massive map to be a rather unique experience. I basically want more Castlevania style games minus Konami not sorry. I already know this going to be well worth the wait.

3. RACCOIN: Coin Pusher Roguelike

Just going by the demo alone this quickly became a game I'm very hyped for. You often pushing coins that all differ in some way. Once you get how the game works the real fun begins. It's a style of games that often randomizes to keep things refreshing. You just never know what's coming your way. I still couldn't imagine a demo was that much fun!!!

I do plan to buy it later next year. I even done a survey giving them feedback after I tried out the demo. I really want this to be a great indie video game. I couldn't imagine playing with coins would ever be this much fun!!! The best part is they easily could add stuff in. I really want to see how truly creative they get with the game.

I also wanna see how ridiculous some people's builds going to be. The demo itself already incredibly fun. I would drop everything for the right YouTubers to play the game in videos I'm not kidding. RACCOIN is going to be a surprise hit in gaming. Honestly, I can't wait to play the actual game in the near future.

4. Mouse PI For Hire

I kept an eye on this Mickey Mouse/BioShock inspired FPS game. The actual look being like the classic cartoons era I love with a huge passion. The later trailers further sold me on the game play. The animations is a major factor why I wanna play this!!! I don't care if there's lack of colors. I know my wife doesn't like that.

At least Disney can't do anything to prevent this game from getting release. This also isn't directly an indie horror game either like Bad Cheese. This should stand out like Cuphead despite a vastly different game play style. I know it'll be a little weird to play an unofficial Mickey Mouse style game. But this also seems surprisingly awesome from the trailers.

I do expect great story telling with some clever jokes thrown in. I am hoping there's a few endings. Even if it's just one ending the next big thing is a few modes. I don't want just the single player campaign. I simply want to see how truly creative they could get with the game. I really hope this turns out to be a great FPS game.

5. Romeo is a Dead Man

I was instantly sold on the announcement trailer. Which was a pretty mess up trailer to announce the world to a game with. Right away I could tell Chainsaw Man was major inspiration. Currently one of my biggest manga series I'm reading. There's a newer trailer revealing it's release date. Now we know this is going to be a twisted take on the famous Romeo and Juliet story.

Going by the game play you can either shoot or slash up enemies. I simply love the crazier, edgier anime style they're going for. The game looks great for such an concept. I felt they aren't going to hide back on the madness!!! I wanna scream like Denji as Chainsaw Man slicing up devils!!! I know a little extreme but that's the direction they're going for.

Maybe the world needs this style of games. Honestly I am curious to find out if it'll be worth playing or not soon. Romeo is a Dead Man could have more surprises I didn't expect. I want such an experience I really wanna go through all of it again with similar levels of excitement. I guess we will see if this stays on my 2026 hit list or not.

6. John Carpenter's Toxic Commando

John been a very busy man recently. Not only he's doing an horror video game. He's finally making an movie sequel to The Thing. One of his most famous movies he's directed. Personally among my favorites of his as well. This is going to be similar to several zombie games. You play with a group of survivors taking on the undead.

If Carpenter gets allowed to go the distance. There's a chance this game going to stand out enough from some of those. Also considering The Thing Remastered done well. He should more excited to making this horror game. I'm just glad he's finally out of retirement to deliver more amazing horror stories. A greatly underrated horror movie director.

Toxic Commando should be similar to some of his most famous movies. But differs enough to be it's own thing like Prince of Darkness being a great example of that. I do expect this going to be a somewhat decent horror game. But if it ends up as one of the most hyped I'll be happier. Carpenter truly deserves respect with this confirming he's still got some life left in him.

7. Gears of War: E-Day

This is a prequel that could answer some of the biggest questions. They previously touched parts of it through Gears of War: Judgment. Even with Gears of War: Reloaded not being great. I do think they still could make up for it here. We already know Marcus Fenix going to be in the game. Everyone loves Fenix to begin with.

This should be similar style to most of the series. I felt how it's going to differ is some aspects of it's story telling. There's always a chance we'll swap between members. Which is a common trend in the series. I just wish if they going for that again. Each major character delivers their own unique perceptive to the same event.

Even an unlikely enemy character that ends up being an ally short term with his race's enemies. Ultimately knowing there's a horrible ending awaiting them would be a cool concept. I'll go for a more likely thing to happen though. They are going full on CrossPlay that won't help the game much. Personally what I want the most is more iconic moments with Fenix.

8. Marvel Tokon: Fighting Souls

This Marvel game's announcement caused Marvel vs. Capcom fans to lose it I'm not kidding. The same company responsible for many anime fighting games Also includes Guilty Gear and my favorite series from them, BlazBlue. Now they're making an licensed Marvel game. It seems recently many companies jumping hard on Marvel.

In a way I'm happy about since I do like Marvel more than DC. Although some aspects is respectfully done better in DC or Imagine. From what I seen of the game play I actually wanna play this. I don't like it's not coming to Xbox. Which forces me to get it on Steam. Otherwise I love everything else about the game.

There's a huge concern how would it stand out from Marvel vs. Capcom series? Honestly, I think they are going to deliver a more in depth story mode. Possibly better endings which could differ for MvC series. Just don't give me you beaten the game with a secret character crap please. Let's hope this turns out better than their Hunter X Hunter game not sorry.

I also gotta mention the throwing salt at Capcom's faces. They going beyond newer MvC games by doing 4v4 matches. It means we can have up to four characters for a team during matches. Capcom previously done this with Capcom vs. SNK 1 but that's restricted. They even making this CrossPlay further pouring salt right into their eyes!!!

Conclusion

There always possibly could be more games I didn't mention. From the ones I covered here I'm quite hyped for. It would be very nice all of them doesn't suck. I do expect good things from indie developers. I'm sure some retros coming back. I don't feel great about AAA situation though. They are digging an massive hole that's dooming the industry as a whole.

My thoughts on Every Endings in No, I'm Not a Human

Hello everyone I'm XboxClown89, as of last night I finally gotten the last ending I needed. In No, I'm Not a Human that took some time getting. Now I'm ready to discuss my thoughts on all the endings. This will be spoiler filled follow up to my last No, I'm Not a Human blog. If you don't wanna get spoiled don't read this at all please don't be a prick about it.

I'm going by No, I'm Not a Human wiki lineup rather than the actual game lineup. Personally I don't think it matters much. I won't sugar coat some of these endings are rather mess up. Some endings has additional rng factors that makes em trickier to get. Thankfully it's not a long horror game. I can't remember the last time I had to go for every ending in a horror game.

Ending 1: Child of Doom

This is the most rng based ending in the game. First you need a particular woman to visit. Then you gotta hope she is a Visitor or you aren't getting the ending. You also need to say particular stuff to her. Less than a week she get pregnant because you two are sleeping together. She would die from child birth in that period.

Then you gotta look for the baby in a few spots within the house. After that you need to look outside to a rather unexpected window cut scene sequence. The baby drinking a random dog's milk. Finally you go to answer the front door to trigger the ending. Essentially the ending heavily implies your character dies.

People saw the baby as the Anti Christ. A new horrible beginning to the world. I was rather surprised this ending included in the game. At the same time, it makes senses why it is though. Easily among the most mess up endings. It's not the weirdest ending though. This ending usually among the last endings people gets in the game.

Ending 2: The End?

You need to make sure the amount of people doesn't matter. They just need to be human on the last day. Then after boarding up the windows. You go beneath to trigger the ending. Now this is one of the most expected among the endings. Your character spends months with a group of people. Not much happens during the ending means it was done perfectly.

The ending plays off of everyone down there unsure of things outside the house. They must somehow manage to survive months. Of course, things could happen within the group. The main character isn't a people person either. I felt it's a good, fitting conclusion. The uncertainty by itself is exactly why I love this ending.

Ending 3: No, I'm Not Alone

This ending is parallel to The End? ending. It's a very similar condition ending. Except you make sure you have at least one Visitor left in the house. Majority of the ending plays out similar. Until the Visitors decides to come after you. They don't hold back on how brutal of a death it is either. I absolutely love you see their eyes being mostly white.

Somehow this comes off being freaky. This is also among the most expected endings. I actually prefer the twist a lot myself. Just when your character had this uneasiness. It later gets confirmed in a rather unpleasant matter. This also confirms your character never was safe. I loved this ending in the game. This fits in perfectly with the theme.

Ending 4: May Death Cleanse us of Our Sins

Here's another rng based ending. You have a cult leader that forces his followers into your home. You need to make sure all three of them makes it to a later visit of their leader. It doesn't matter if one or more are Visitors. If you know what to say to him. You should get offered to join the cult. You can't directly kill them even if they are all humans.

You gotta hope Visitors already in your home doesn't kill em either. You also need to make sure to a degree. FEMA doesn't take at least one of them out of the house. Thankfully you do get an handful of FEMA papers. Among giving to other people in the house guarantees. FEMA will take them to avoid taking any of the cultists.

This cult believes Death as their god. The ending goes into full details about that. They believe in the end being a new beginning. This ending was rather unexpected in many ways. I was even surprised the cultists were a factor for a particular ending honestly. I would say it's a little of a dark ending. Among the most twisted logic endings in the game.

Ending 5: Welcome to FEMA

Another multiple steps you gotta hope to get asked endings. You need to FEMA a few times it's mostly meh though. You also need to save FEMA related stuff on the television. You also need to be somewhat pleasant with the FEMA Agent. This person will come by a couple times. Often taking people out of the house.

Which will put you at risk getting another ending. You also need to give FEMA notices to any people in the house. You should eventually get ask about joining. Now this was a mess up ending with some uncertainty. You left your home to join em leading to places getting set on fire. You aren't even sure what happened to your home or if what you're doing a good or bad thing?

I absolutely love this picture of your character's fully dressed up seeing fire reflecting off their eyes. Almost as if they are in Hell for what they done. Considering how many similar horror stories goes. This technically would be among the more expected endings. This was a great ending you could easily miss out getting.

Ending 6: Yes, I'm Alone

One of the famous bad endings. Either don't have enough people in the house or lie about it to the mascot Visitor. You should get suddenly kicked out the conversation. He will break through the door to kill you. He could often come by your house in a run. If you're lucky, he might let you know two or more people in your house are Visitors.

This ending stands out in many ways. This monster you know wants a reason to come in to kill you. You are doing what you can by default to not get killed by him. I also love he appears fully 3D model right before he kills you. He already looks freaky to begin with. This guy is rather unpleasant at times. I was surprised it's an actual ending in the game.

Ending 7: Yes, I'm a Murderer

This was among the first endings I gotten. Another famous mess up bad ending. You must kill at least four confirmed humans in a single playthrough. The Prophetic Man will appear to trigger the ending. I simply love how the ending plays out. Your character realizes he's been killing humans. Purely out of paranoia or fear they might've been Visitors.

Just when they're about to commit suicide. We see hands very likely from Visitors about to grab him. Stuff like this is essentially nightmare fuel. Your character already loss the will to live. We don't even know which death your character ultimately gotten. Which was genius on their part. This creates a debate which actually killed him thus creating more interest into the game.

Ending 8: Shroom or Doom

Easily among the weirdest endings in the game. Also one of the weirdest endings I ever seen in an horror game period. It's partly rng because you need a particular bearded old man to show up. He will offer to give you a page. This piece of paper has instructions what you need to do. All of it is suddenly something appears.

You need to know what to do with em. Which ended up being surprisingly straight forward. You need to find a huge mushroom beneath the house. Place it in the fridge to eventually eat it. You also must find an child hood toy of your character. A clock should appear in your bedroom. Just interacting with it automatically sets the time to midnight.

Then you should get offered to go with the old man. We get to see a massive mushroom grow out of the ground. You two attempted to prepare a ritual to stop that. Yes it does question if any of this real, a dream or you are on drugs? There's a huge chance it's possibly two of those. The song playing makes it even stranger.

Ending 9: Embrace The Inevitable

This heavily involves the Prophetic Man. He will often come by your house. You must let the Cat Lady whose a confirmed Visitor into your home. He will then tell you don't test anyone for a few days. One of his last visits he will offer to give you something. Which you will use to dig a hole beneath your house.

You don't have to go far for the other critical character. A man whose trapped nearby two holes essentially. You talk to him through a huge hole in the tunnel. I should point out you should order two cans of energy drinks. Simply to dig up a hole with all energy uses em up. Drinking those will give you additional digs in a single day.

Otherwise you have to space out digging that hole. You also put yourself at risk for another ending. The last visit from The Prophetic Man will confirm you can go for the ending. I should point out each later visit he looks worst. It's heavily implied he died before you go down a huge hole. Which could've been somewhat inspired by Silent Hill 4: The Room.

You need in a mysterious void talking to Death. yes the actual entity Death that leads to you going to the afterlife. A much more peaceful variation of your home minus people. The ending also confirms day/night doesn't exist there. It's a surprisingly peaceful ending with everything considered. It is easy to miss out getting this ending.

Ending 10: Wrath of the Vigilante

The Vigilante aka the guy with a rifle often comes by your house. The first visit isn't anything to worry about. The later visits he'll request to check you for signs. If you fail these this instantly triggers the ending. Your character gets shot but the man gets a brutal death. It doesn't end there your character decides to find his group to take em all out.

This unexpected man with a shotgun took out armed people like it's nothing. Suddenly I'm reminded of the movie, Hobo with a Shotgun lol. I also should point out if you pass the first check. The following check will remove the previous option you selected to make it harder. I simply loved how this ending plays out.

This goes to show he mess with the wrong man. You can tell The Vigilante doesn't care what he does to people. I don't feel bad he ends up dead afterwards. I didn't expect such an ending to be in the game. I will give em credit for doing it!!! You also need to avoid triggering the mascot Visitor ending as well. Otherwise you should get the ending in no time.

Ending 11: In the Dark (newest ending)

In my opinion, one of the deepest endings in the game. It acts as a parallel ending to two other endings. Except only your character made it beneath the house. The ending reveals more back story of the character. You suddenly felt bad he's all alone. This was an ending I'm surprised just gotten added in. Something happens above effectively trapping your character.

It heavily implies your character doesn't have longer to live. This is among the most perfect endings in the game. It is fitting of the theme to the point it deserves to be called easily one of the best endings. You also don't wanna trigger another ending that involves killing four humans in a run. You could luck out like I once did.

An dream sequence came up very late into a run. Removing everyone that was staying in the house. I automatically became perfectly set up to get this ending. This was actually the second time I gotten it funny enough. This game is surprisingly deep when it goes into it's lore. Absolutely why I love this particular ending so much!!!

Conclusion

No, I'm Not a Human is easily among the greatest written indie horror games I ever played. I don't think any of it's endings done poorly. In fact, a good number of them were way better than I could possibly imagine!!! Majority of them you actually could see happen in such an situation. The team behind it was rather creative indeed.

I also liked you can save to a degree to help prevent getting screw out of some endings. I am deeply impressed I like majority of the endings so much myself. Suddenly No, I'm Not a Human is among the most inspiring horror games I ever played!!! If they add in more endings I'll gladly come back to go for em.

The music choices with the images we see really help sells each ending. All possible ways for your character's story to end. I'm also happy they sold 850,000 copies on Steam. This could imply they could be considering to bring the game to consoles. Personally I would greatly appreciate the game gets onto GOG more.

For a short length indie horror game. The actual stories told within it are quite impactful. Each ending brings something else to the table. Even three of them being alternative versions of each other. They still felt like their own endings rather than minor changes that's it. Let's put it this way it's not Resident Evil 1 either version or Shadow the Hedgehog game.

Each ending tells a great conclusion to all the madness. The possibility of more endings could be added. It means we still haven't seen this game's full potential. I know some would be rather harsh about that. I actually felt that's a great sign. They could leave some of those ideas for a possible follow up or spiritual successor.

I am happy No, I'm Not a Human was nominated for Steam Awards' Outstanding Story-Rich Game Award. Although I don't think it would win regarding the other nominees. Of course, I voted for it because the game won me over that much. Even considering many situations comes from particular people visiting your house.

I'm glad that aspect also plays into the endings as well. Otherwise they just felt like unrelatable stories. It's mind blowing how they properly tie in all the endings. I don't believe the game has a true canon ending. But that also could take a lot away from the game if it had one. Suddenly it's Silent Hill 2 either version with no confirmed canon ending.

This triggers a debate what the fans believes to be the canon ending? Thus further creating more interest into the game. Maybe I'm thinking incredibly deep here. No, I'm Not a Human works wonders like that. Especially for a cheap indie horror game. It really does deliver such an unforgivable experience. This horror game is a must play before you die game I really felt.

Games of 2025 list

Hello everyone I'm XboxClown89, I wanted to do one more list before I stopped doing em. Games of lists always meant a lot to me. Sometimes I forget stuff I simply looked up some of those lists. Suddenly some great memories comes back. Next year being questionably at best for our future including my wife.

I wanted to do a final Games of list before such concepts gets either put on hold or get stopped altogether. I'm already quite proud of such an amazing lineup of games this year. Game Pass on Xbox wise played a major factor making this possible. Not many games on the actual list I directly bought being a huge surprise.

Possibly hundreds if not over an thousand hours went into this. Which is ridiculous but as a gamer I'm quite fine with this. Time does fly when you're having fun. There's barely any bad games at all here. The very best of them are difficult to stop playing. The fun factor might possibly be the highest yet.

I also make sure to clarify which platforms. To help prevent confusion on release dates for anyone that's selective on the details. Some games takes a few months to a few years to go from PC to consoles. A few games fits right into that situation. With all of that said please enjoy reading this blog entry.

I also have a few rules I went by as they follow down below...

1. Any compilation games could only be on the list if I played all the games

2. I must legally played the games no modding or rom hacking or stealing em

3. No mods

4. No newer story DLCs to older games allowed

I played through fifty games in the entire lineup alone. A large amount of them within several compilation games. I really went way bigger than I previously had before. This really felt like the one to end it all with for sure this time. I just hope anyone reading this enjoys the blog entry. It does mean a lot to me maybe you learn about a few games that may interest ya.

Here's a link to my double review blog for Mullet Madjack and Crime Scene Cleaner down below...

20. Overpowered 1 - Mars Infestation

Xbox Series X/PC (Xbox Anywhere)

September 2, 2025

https://jackred1989.blogspot.com/2025/11/overpowered-1-mars-infestation-2025.html

For a cheap Xbox game it was a little better than I expected. You get four main levels with two survival maps. Everything is a small variety barely any content. The main reason why it's ranked so low in a rather long list. For what it's worth the game doesn't suck. It just comes close enough to be somewhat decent.

You kinda want more than what the game has to offer. I did like the art work easily one of my favorite aspects. It wouldn't be fair to compare this to games like Vampire Survivors. Honestly, it works fine on two platforms through Xbox Anywhere program. I felt it was worth the amount it goes for. I do think a few major changes could bring this game to life!!!

19. I Am Your Beast

Xbox Series X (Game Pass)

June 25, 2025

https://jackred1989.blogspot.com/2025/09/i-am-your-beast-2025-review.html

Sorta reminded me of Unmetal. Both were a serious tone stories with jokes thrown in. This felt like Mullet Madjack to a degree. You had to be quickly adapt to many situations on the fly. S ranks were a little too short of a time limit to get in most levels. The audio as a whole loved all of it!!! The controls are just perfect for an game like this.

Yes you have to do some additional runs to unlock some levels. But the bonus challenges makes things rather interesting. Some of which even made those levels more fun to play. It is very critical at making the smallest mistakes you'll die. Also get use to the same environment the entire game. Despite those it's a very fun FPS game I can easily recommend.

18. Gears of War: Reloaded

Xbox Series X (Game Pass)

August 26, 2025

https://jackred1989.blogspot.com/2025/09/gears-of-war-reloaded-2025-review.html

This is the third version of the same game I played. I am going to be honest it was quite faithful to Gears of War: Ultimate Edition. I wasn't expecting signs of being rushed out. I kept noticing AI on both sides not acting right or doing stupid stuff. I will give em some credit it does load up a lot faster. Which is great when you die a lot in later portions.

The one true high light it has is Crossplay for multiplayer modes. Otherwise the few changes doesn't truly matter. I was in all honestly more impressed by Ultimate Edition years ago. Which came out the same year I gotten married in 2015. It's still a great game with technical issues holding it back. Still disappointed this wasn't a newer version of Gears 2 or the original Gears trilogy.

17. Beat 'Em Up Collection (7 games)

Xbox Series X/PC (Xbox Anywhere)

July 17, 2025

https://jackred1989.blogspot.com/2025/11/beat-em-up-collection-2025-review.html

Easily the worst overall compilation game I played all year long. Sword of Sodan was a really terrible game. Most of the lineup is alright at best. You actually have more fun cheating em than playing it like normal. Surprisingly it does a lot of things right. At the same time, it's not Capcom Beat 'Em Up Bundle quality either.

I always welcome more Sega Genesis games to play. Beat 'Em Up Collection can differ achievement/trophy hunting. Just based if you going the distance without codes. But it's virtually guarantee most of them you'll get regardless which direction you go in. I felt I Have No Mouth and I Must Scream on the same engine was better.

16. Megabonk

Steam

September 18, 2025

https://jackred1989.blogspot.com/2025/11/megabonk-2025-review.html

There's some huge issues that holds this game back a lot. At it's core Megabonk is an incredibly fun game. It's a little too much like Vampire Survivors. Despite some notable changes within the game play. You could easily confuse the two games. Difficulty is notably unbalanced at times. It's an fun game to achievement hunt though.

Parts of it comes off being a weird parody of the genre. In most aspects there's plenty of stuff to keep you busy. I personally wish there was more than two locations. Some characters takes a little longer getting use to playing as. Megabonk is still an game I could recommend to people. I simply felt most the ones I played are better.

At the time writing this I still haven't cleared Tier 2. They also added a new difficult level with the ghosts. This game simply not balanced at all!! I will say it could be fun for a little while. Still can't believe it gotten nominated at Steam Awards for Sit Back and Relax Award. I voted for RV There Yet? myself.

It simply doesn't belong there. This category meant to be games you simply relax while playing. Megabonk is the exact opposite of that. Maybe I'll get RV There Yet? in the near future. The team actually wanted Megabonk to be nominated for Best Game You Suck At Award lol. I guess they didn't suck enough to get nominated lol.

15. Decision Legacy Collection (4 games)

Steam

January 30, 2025

https://jackred1989.blogspot.com/2025/03/decision-legacy-collection-2025-review.html

Despite being near the bottom of such a great lineup. I still recommend Decision Legacy Collection. Especially Decision: Medieval it's so damn good!!! I even fully 100% that five times with three of those done on Hard+ aka hidden hardest difficulty. On the surface you get what you see. Don't expect any major changes whatsoever.

You still getting four amazing flash games packed with content. You will be spending hours to fully experience them all. I'm quite impressed what they were pulled off with these games. Achievement hunt might not be necessary great. I still think it's a good replacement when you wanna play Doom series. Decision series earned my respect with some amazing game play these offer.

14. Crime Scene Cleaner

Xbox Series X (Game Pass)

April 17, 2025

Now here's a game out of the blue I decided to try out through Game Pass on Xbox. I quickly ended up enjoying this cleaning simulator game. You get some great story telling while you explore the levels. I also love you gotta be creative about several situations. There's no real need to rush cleaning at all. The controls are just about perfect.

Crime Scene Cleaner is a game that blew me away. You get an upgrade system that doesn't get over complex. Each level is vastly different that kept getting tricker to clean up. You just never know which secrets you uncover. I'm not surprised this became a huge hit on Xbox either. This game is perfect if you wanna take things slow or don't feel that stress from playing this at all.

Update: they added new DLC to the game. I am not sure when I'll fully get the game. I will confirm they added more achievements. These are essentially harder variations of the same levels with new story thrown in. I don't think it's a deal breaker I'm missing out on that.

13. I Have No Mouth and I Must Scream

GOG

October 16, 2025 (updated to be the newer version)

https://jackred1989.blogspot.com/2025/10/i-have-no-mouth-and-i-must-scream.html

This was originally an horror DOS point & click game. Earlier this year a newer version gotten on consoles. More recently both Steam & GOG received this version through an update. Which is exactly how I'm able to play it on GOG since I owned the old version. It's a surprisingly easy game to achievement/trophy hunt.

I liked you can play any of the scenarios you want before the end game starts. I felt this held up way better than I thought. I also liked you can listen to the music among the bonus stuff. I never seen this game play this good!!! I would say it's a rather unique take on the genre. You may never play anything like this ever again!!!

12. Darkenstein 3D

Steam

October 21, 2025

https://jackred1989.blogspot.com/2025/10/darkenstein-3d-2025-review.html

For a free FPS game I couldn't imagine it being this great. I would even go as far to say easily could've been an Wolfenstein game. Imagine a more silly Wolfenstein style game. You could throw a rat at your enemies. Some other notable FPS franchises influence as well. Somehow all of it works amazingly well. I absolutely loved Hobo Guy with a passion.

This easily could've been an twenty dollar FPS game. A good variety of enemies with the bosses differ enough from each other. A good selection of weapons to keep it fun with plenty of ammo. Every level differs plenty to make it a rather unique experience. Especially when it suddenly becomes more like an Serious Sam game at the end I loved that!!!

11. Mullet Madjack

Xbox Series X (Game Pass)

March 13, 2025

This was such an amazing anime style FPS game. This was amazingly fun from start to finish. Rogue like aspects done just right. Truly fantastic animations with great voice acting. You could turn off randomized levels but it's just more fun keeping that on. This felt like an Arcade style boom shooter that never gets old or boring by any means.

In all honestly, I was quite blown away by this. It even sold me wanting to get this game on GOG no joke. Achievement hunting for the most part is a lot of fun. You get a lot of fun surprises on the way. I personally didn't like how you get the actual ending. Despite that, I highly recommend checking out Mullet Madjack.

10. My Friendly Neighborhood

Xbox Series X (Game Pass)

July 17, 2025

https://jackred1989.blogspot.com/2025/07/crash-bandicoot-4-its-about-time-2020.html

I previously knew about this game when it was on Steam. Imagine an Resident Evil 7 style game taking on Muppets you get this!!! For the most part you uncover the truth what happened? Despite not many weapons they all work quite differently. There's a little variety within the enemies. I also like helping several characters removes em as enemies for reminder of the game.

The voice acting is truly amazing. Believe it or not, the sound effects are even better!!! They even done their version of The Mercenaries as well. Some clever puzzles with some good maps to use. I personally loved how well the inventory works in the game. My Friendly Neighborhood is among my favorite RE clones I played!!!

9. Gex Trilogy (3 games)

Steam

June 16, 2025

https://jackred1989.blogspot.com/2025/12/gex-trilogy-2025-review.html

I been waiting since 2023 to play this. I loved the trailers for this compilation game. I'm very glad Gex finally came back after all these years. Three of his best games in one package. You got most of the content from the PS1 versions. I loved the new features as a whole. Each Gex game differs just enough to stand out from each other.

A decent platformer collection that's more often overlooked than anything else. Of course, Gex eventually led to people loving Deadpool more recently. Largely parodying pop culture with already dated jokes back then. Yet there's just something about Gex we don't care. You can't go wrong with this collection.

8. DUSK

Xbox Series X/PC (Xbox Anywhere)

October 31, 2025

https://jackred1989.blogspot.com/2025/11/dusk-2025-review.html

DUSK is heavily inspired by Quake 1. In every aspect I felt out done the very game that inspired it. It's broken up into three episodes that are a rather unique experience. The game being on Xbox Anywhere program was a bonus. This was a truly amazing FPS game. A surprisingly refreshing one at that. DUSK can easily withstand the test of time.

Sure it has similarities with Cultic. I do think it can hold it's own quite well. The audio as a whole truly impressive work. A huge variety of enemies to constantly keep things interesting. Plenty of fun weapons for classic inspired boomer shooter style fun. DUSK also has Endless Mode for the crazier FPS fans. This game is truly amazing at everything it does.

7. Swords & Souls Legacy Collection (5 games)

Steam

July 22, 2025

https://jackred1989.blogspot.com/2025/08/swords-souls-legacy-collection-2025.html

This is a collection of five flash games from 2010s. The fact these were released a couple months from each other is rather impressive. Even my least favorite being The Gentleman ended up being a rather unique experience. There's a lot of variety of game play in this collection. Achievement hunting ended up being among the most fun I done in a long time honestly.

The Soul Driver is a fun game you turn your brain off while playing. Rogue Soul 2 is absolutely amazing. Swords & Souls is in all honestly too damn great of a game!!! Majority of them are surprisingly short games. I actually felt this collection was done just right for this. I highly recommend checking this collection out on Steam.

6. Heretic + Hexen (2 games)

GOG and Xbox Series X (Game Pass)

August 7, 2025

https://jackred1989.blogspot.com/2025/08/heretic-hexen-2025-version-review.html

Similar to Doom + Doom II, Nightdive remastered two classic FPS games with extras. Not only you get those games with their expansions. They also made two new campaigns that fits in perfectly. Heretic is very similar to the first two Doom games with some slight changes. Hexen on the other hand is a totally different ball game!!!

You are getting virtually as close as much game play as Doom + Doom II. Even excluding their mod support features. I was truly really impressed with this remaster. You also get some cool bonuses you can check out as well. Just the right changes to make both games a bit easier to play. Heretic + Hexen is a truly fantastic compilation game that I really highly recommend checking this out!!!

5. No, I'm Not a Human

Steam

September 15, 2025

https://jackred1989.blogspot.com/2025/12/no-im-not-human-2025-review.html

Easily one of the greatest indie games I played all year. Considering it originally was in a horror compilation game. This turned out to be a fantastic horror game. Very iconic right down to it's core. I simply absolutely loved everything about it. I'm proud to voted for it a few times at The Horror Game Awards this year.

4. Dino Crisis Bundle (2 games)

GOG

January 29, 2025

https://jackred1989.blogspot.com/2025/05/dino-crisis-bundle-review.html

Earlier this year, Capcom surprise a lot of people rereleasing the first two Dino Crisis games. These were handled similar to Resident Evil Bundle games. My controller works perfectly for these. Two amazing Capcom classics you don't wanna miss. Especially if you love games similar to Resident Evil series.

The first Dino Crisis is like a more rough RE3 classic experience with dinosaurs. The second Dino Crisis actually felt like RE4 either version in a nut shell. Two vastly different styles with a similar concept. Both of them held up amazingly well you just gotta play these!!! Especially Dino Crisis 2 it's such a great action game.

3. Marvel vs. Capcom Fighting Collection: Arcade Classics (7 games)

Xbox Series X

February 4, 2025

https://jackred1989.blogspot.com/2025/04/marvel-vs-capcom-fighting-collection.html

It's no surprise I'm an huge MvC fan since childhood. I was caught off guard when this compilation was announced last year. I chose to wait for it's Xbox version. You are getting some amazing Arcade games. You already are in great hands with Marvel vs. Capcom 2.

This is essentially better than the first Capcom Fighting Collection. This is already among my favorite Marvel games I ever played!!! Even the minor issues aren't going to affect anything. You are getting some nice surprises in this collection. Easily among my absolute favorites this year by far.

2. Deep Rock Galactic: Survivor

Xbox Series X (Game Pass) I own it now

September 17, 2025

https://jackred1989.blogspot.com/2025/11/deep-rock-galactic-survivor-2025-review.html

When this game hit Game Pass it left Early Access. I previous knew about the game from Mike Matei streamed it on Twitch a while back. Sure it has similarities to Vampire Survivors. I actually felt there's more in depth with the game play. Also considering all of it is in 3D makes everything stand out way more!!!

I still couldn't believe how truly great this game is. It doesn't have a true end but you got plenty of content to keep you busy. You play as four dwarves that notably differ from each other. You can upgrade as well as customize cosmetics for them. In all honestly everything about Deep Rock Galactic: Survivor is truly amazing stuff!!!

For fun I'll quickly rank the best games from each compilation game represented. Keep in mind, this is strictly my opinion alone. But lists like this could easily differ from other people. You are always welcome to present your own lists on this topic. This is going to be fun!!!

1. Capcom Fighting Collection 2 (8 games)

Steam

May 16, 2025

https://jackred1989.blogspot.com/2025/12/capcom-fighting-collection-2-2025-review.html

Now this is what I call a worthy follow fighting compilation game. Somehow ended up being more fun than the previous entries. A mostly solid lineup of fighting games. Packed with enough surprises to keep you busy for hours. Hands down worthy to be nominated for either Best Fighting Game award. I am deeply impressed how damn great it truly was!!!

More recently Capcom Fighting Collection 2 won Best Fighting Game awards. Which I strongly felt were well deserved. I hope they make more Capcom Fighting Collection games soon. This easily among my favorites to date. This is exactly why I love Capcom so much!!! They brought back some truly fantastic games that's timeless classics.

6. Decision: Medieval

I was deeply impressed with this flash game. They took the concept to the past. Who knew it would turned out to be so awesome? I felt in most aspects this was the best balanced among all the Decision games.

5. Hexen

Hexen was a rather unique take on the genre. Even going as far to not have actual firearms. Despite the common label of being an FPS game. It has a rather unique hub design that pulls you in. Some truly amazing animations with surprisingly fun game play.

4. Swords & Souls

This was among the greatest flash games I ever played!!! You create your own avatar to be in this world. I simply loved everything about this game!!! You easily could play this for hours. Easily one of the finest games you level up in hands down.

Gex 3

Gex 3 is a solid 3D platformer. I loved each level are huge worlds inspired by Banjo-Kazooie. Some of my absolute favorite jokes in the series. Even the hub world as a whole among my favorite aspects. The audio as a whole works amazingly well.

2. Capcom vs. SNK 2

Easily one of the greatest fighting games. Not to mention crossovers in a video game I ever played!!! This game held up insanely well after so many years. You simply aren't living until you play this!!! It is that damn good of a fighting game!!!

1. Marvel vs. Capcom 2

A truly fantastic crossover fighting game. Over fifty characters with two versions of Wolverine. It's mind blowing how damn great this game truly is!!! Even one shared ending everything else works incredibly well.

Some bonus awards section

Worst Game of 2025

Sword of Sodan

Let's be honest, we knew Sword of Sodan was bad. I didn't expect it to be this bad!!! I would even recommend playing the original Street Fighter over it.

Most Surprising Game of 2025

My Friendly Neighborhood

To say this was a surprise is quite the understatement. My Friendly Neighborhood was so unique in what it brings to the table.

Best Compilation Game of 2025

Capcom Fighting Collection 2

Just when I thought it couldn't get any better. I played Capcom Fighting Collection 2. WOW my standards went even higher than I possibly could've imagined!!!

Best Indie Game of 2025

Deep Rock Galactic: Survivor

This was a truly fantastic indie game. You play as dwarves taking on alien insects. I could not possibly imagine how much insane depth this had!!!

Gex Trilogy (2025) review

Hello everyone I'm XboxClown89, I know I kept talking about Gex a couple times this year. You knew I had to eventually get Gex Trilogy. Well yeah that's exactly what happened. I really wanted to play this for a few years now. I will be linking a previous Gex blog to help save time. Although there's more stuff I gotta add to that while reviewing Gex Trilogy.

Here's a link to that Gex blog down below...

https://jackred1989.blogspot.com/2025/03/gex-trilogy-review-1995-1999.html

Gex Trilogy (2025)

I never seen any of these Gex games play this good. There's some cool bonus stuff including an interview with Gex's English voice actor Dana Gould. Effectively most tapes in Gex 1 are pointless. Thanks to the new saving system. Which works better than it's rewind feature. I'm still not used to using the rewind feature.

It's not like most games I used it in. Where you can instantly start playing again after preventing whatever happened. This felt like you need to wait a little longer than expected. This kept throwing me off while playing the games. I also noticed some weird animation glitches. Nothing that broken the compilation game though.

I do like there's three save slots per a Gex game. You can't overwrite between them is a good idea. The controls works for the most fine. I did notice some slightly input delays or not properly registering my commands. Otherwise it worked well enough to play all three of them. The loading as a whole was perfect.

All three Gex games were pulled from PlayStation 1. I'm not used to playing an compilation game filled with cd based video games. Officially considering Mega Man X Legacy Collection 2. This would be my second cd based compilation game I played. I even felt in some aspects this was better honestly.

You aren't missing much except stuff Gex 1 had on 3DO. Which was mostly minor with the biggest missing feature being it's save feature. The achievements is a mixed bag. For Gex 1, I felt those were well selected. However I was disappointed with majority of them. For the sequels mostly being getting several amounts of remotes.

Of course, you also beat the games. It's just a huge disappointment. All the possible achievements we could've had instead. Essentially this ended up being a rather easy achievement hunt. I also notice especially with the sequels. Some of the animations moves a little faster.

This could throw you off at times. I also had some enemies not able to get any closer to attack me. I wasn't on a platform or anything to not be on equal footing either. From what I played they did a solid job with what they had. I know people criticize the hell out of this compilation game. Honestly, I actually enjoyed it a lot myself.

You may get more voice overs in all the games than you expect. Which might be annoying for some people. It's not Bubsy or Awesome Possum level of annoying though. Obviously, this is my new favorite Gex game. I mean how could it not be? You got the Gex trilogy with some good improvements.

I didn't even mind paying full price for this. This was a couple days before Steam's Winter Sale started. Gex Trilogy earns a spot in my GOG collection soon. This is exactly how I wanna play these games!!! I don't get excited for platformers like I used to. But this was different because Gex was in my childhood to a degree.

The fact they packed all of this content together. I'll give Limited Run Games respect. I'm thankful they brought Gex back. I was truly happy to play a better version of Gex 1 and Enter the Gecko. I previously been around Gex 3 on PS1 a long time ago. Honestly, I don't care a lot of jokes were already dated.

I was simply happy to have Gex back in my life again. Easily among my favorite platformer compilation games I ever played!!! It may not be perfect but it never was intended to be in the first place. We got such a wild former mascot character. Gex Trilogy was a lot of fun. A huge variety among the levels kept it interesting.

Gex Trilogy possibly set my standards for any future Gex games a bit too high. This is exactly what I always wanted Gex wise. I felt they absolutely nailed it!!! Gex Trilogy was a decent compilation game. I know some won't like the price it's going for. But considering you're getting three PS1 games in one package with bonus stuff.

I felt that's a good deal worthy enough for the gecko. Gex Trilogy brought back some good memories. I waited since 2023 to play this. I'm glad the long wait ended up being well worth it. I may be funny to get anything with either Limited Run Games or Square Enix. I still wanna say thanks to both of them for giving us back Gex!!!

Capcom Fighting Collection 2 (2025) review

Hello everyone I'm XboxClown89, I finally gotten to play Capcom Fighting Collection 2. Honestly this is among the best fighting compilation games I ever played!!! Well it should be since it's in a great series all about bringing back the fighting game classics. Easily among my favorite 2025 games by far.

Capcom Fighting Collection 2 (2025)

1. Power Stone

2. Power Stone 2

3. Capcom vs. SNK

4. Capcom vs. SNK 2

5. Plasma Sword

6. Street Fighter Alpha 3 Upper

7. Project Justice

8. Capcom Fighting Evolution

This is a direct follow up to Capcom Fighting Collection. Despite Capcom Fighting Evolution in the lineup. Majority of these fighting games are great!!! Half the collection presents 2D fighting games with the other half representing 3D fighting games. This also means it's among the most ambitious overall emulation in the series.

I didn't expect all of them to play differently enough to truly stand out more. The previous two entries were much similar in comparison. It's a little weird we get sequels without their prequels. Although I don't think it affect things much. I already fully achievement hunted the game before my review.

I really couldn't stop playing it truthfully. The overall emulation was truly solid. I would even say better than Mega Man X Legacy Collection 2. Which had mostly PS1 and PS2 entries of that series. I also didn't expect Street Fighter Alpha 3 Upper to have a few hidden modes. Yes you have to input codes to trigger these modes.

You even have Final Battle mode that directly takes you to the final boss. They even added in four characters pulled from a different version of Alpha 3. All of them were added in free through an update. I would say easily some of my favorite games so far in the series. Don't worry I'll confirm my favorites. Capcom Fighting Evolution is just sad in comparison.

There's a great YouTube video that goes into details about it. They originally had a more ambitious concept. Of course they had development problems. Eventually Capcom gave em a difficult decision. Either cancel the game or release it as is? The later ended up happened the game wasn't well received. Essentially the final version of the game is a poorly, rushed crossover fighting game.

Considering the awesome crossover fighting games in the previous entries. This one is easily the most forgettable. Even with it's one true high light being able to play as two previously unplayable bosses. The overall art design isn't constant at all. They didn't get to properly balance all the different fighting systems.

Which means some of them are more overwhelming possibly broken. Even the music isn't much to write home about. Usually they have some amazing songs in their fighting games. The one thing I did ended up liking was each ending was done through a comic style. It might not be much but still something somewhat interesting.

Let's not even compare this to both Capcom vs. SNK games either. I can promise you accepting this in the collection. The rest of the lineup really made up for it. I even felt some aspects is a little better than the previous entries. This possibly is preference above everything else. I love we get more notable variety of game play styles.

Plasma Sword is an futuristic possibly Star Wars inspired weapon based fighting game. I grew up with some of those myself. Easily among my favorite style for sure. Power Stone series are arena style fighting games. Not to be confused with platform fighting games like Super Smash Brothers series. I notice one major difference.

For platform fighters you either gotta send your opponents flying or make em fall off. But you gotta beat em up fully for arena fighters. I would surprised how strikingly similar those two styles were. Power Stone series also allows you to get into vehicles or turrets. Some of the most ambitious bosses in the compilation as well.

Some of them does team styles a bit differently. Project Justice is similar to Marvel vs. Capcom series to a degree. I never seen Street Fighter Alpha 3 play this good. Yes I do own it in a few other Capcom compilation games. But this was the later Upper version. I loved some of the games weren't released to consoles or outside Japan before.

I felt this was way better than Hyper Street Fighter II. Capcom vs. SNK series is truly fantastic stuff. There's a huge variety of characters across all the games. You are going to be spending hours playing these. I just love this Capcom compilation series is very constant across the board. Just like M2 was with three Castlevania compilation games.

Don't expect some of these games to have endings. Although there's a lot of story presented. The game play as a whole is among the most mind blowing for this series. There's so much insane level of depth with replayability. I haven't tried online matches then again that never was the point of me playing this. No I simply wanted to get more into Capcom.

I so happen to enjoy fighting games to a degree. Thanks to this series I have a very clear idea which fighting game series I love the most? I never had any notable input issues. They absolutely nailed this compilation indeed. It's true I may not get as previously hyped. I do wanna play any newer entries if they come out.

I fully achievement hunt the Capcom Fighting Collection trilogy. Three truly fantastic fighting compilation games. If I had to pick my top 3 favorites though. Street Fighter Alpha 3 Upper, Project Justice and my favorite by far Capcom vs. SNK 2 respectively. All three of these fighting games were very great.

Alpha 3 Upper is easily among my favorite SF games I ever played!!! Project Justice gotten me interested to playing Rival Schools. Capcom vs. SNK 2 is among their greatest crossover fighting games. Not just that also among their greatest fighting games period. Some major improvements over the original Capcom vs. SNK.

I would say the roster by itself speaks volumes to it's greatness. We have two of the biggest fighting game companies of that era came together. This was the next big crossover fighting game after Marvel vs. Capcom 2. This one was a true master piece. Project Justice felt like an anime fighting game. The way everything was I absolutely loved with a huge passion.

It may not helped I finally bought JoJo's Bizarre Adventure All Star Battle R in the same purchase. I didn't expect the characters to be this unique. This also had a lot of story within it's story mode. The animations were among my favorites within the compilation. The entire package is a home run!!! I really can't criticize much.

I know previously I already given this the golden standard for compilation games. You can bet it truly earned that in record time. I actually felt this surprisingly was the best entry so far. No really even with Capcom Fighting Evolution. All the remaining fighting games were really fun to replay. Each one had their own secrets that kept things interesting.

Capcom Fighting Collection 2 felt just right. I voted for it in two game awards regarding Best Fighting Game award. It may loss to Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves at The Game Awards. It has one more round at Grand Game awards this Friday. Considering two lackluster licensed anime fighting games nominated. Being Bleach and Hunter x Hunter respectively.

It's very obvious between the two decent fighting games. Some of my favorite stages yet also presented here. Most of the songs were very timeless quality. This is exactly how a sequel even if it's a fighting compilation series should be. All three of them kept my standards being quite high. Honestly, I highly recommend checking out this collection soon.

Ranking following down below...

8. Capcom Fighting Evolution

7. Power Stone

6. Plasma Sword

5. Capcom vs. SNK

4. Power Stone 2

3. Street Fighter Alpha 3 Upper

2. Project Justice

1. Capcom vs. SNK 2

No, I'm Not a Human (2025) review

Hello everyone I'm XboxClown89, today I will be reviewing a game. I previously found out about a while back. I'm very sure GrayStillPlays played a demo of today's game. I even voted for it a few times at The Horror Game Awards. Which does include Game of the Year award. I will be reviewing No, I'm Not a Human.

Just in case anyone was wondering. Along with Look Out, this was one the runner ups. Ultimately the award went to Silent Hill F. Personally from what I seen of all three horror games. Each one truly deserved it in their own right. Honestly, the entire game awards show was my favorite of the year. I absolutely was fine with all of it as a whole.

No, I'm Not a Human (2025)

Originally featured in Violent Horror Stories: Anthology. No, I'm Not a Human actually an extended version of that game. Very soon a new update adding a lot to the game on the way. You play as a man that's inside an house. Something wrong with the sun affecting many things. To make things worst Visitors are monsters that mimics humans attempting to get inside places.

It's sorta The Thing but the exact opposite temperatures. Not to mention, majority of the game taking place inside a house. Very often people will come knocking at your front door. This is a decision based horror game. You are constantly taking chances with each person that shows up. There's a huge variety of personalities represented.

There's a lot of endings with a new eleventh ending going to be added in. I know that's insane to think there's so many endings. Even with such a concept somehow works amazingly well. As the game goes on, more signs becomes available to look for. Some of these signs gets quite bizarre. Like bugs coming out of people's ears no really it's in the game!!!

You could easily play the game slow or fast pacing. The game does keep track of which endings you unlocked. At the time of this review, I unlocked eight endings. I honestly couldn't stop replaying it!!! RNG is a rather unique thing here. At random most characters that could show up. There's a few set placed characters depending on conditions for some of the endings.

A lot of characters can be either human or a visitor. It turns out some of them are always human while others always going to be visitors. After a good while you figure out which signs they failed to hide. You even get the option to take em out with a shotgun. Some actions like digging a hole, examining people or using the gun uses up energy.

Some actions or objects won't be available. Until something comes up confirming them. I know some people won't like that though. It means for an example, you can't dig a hole. Until this bald guy tells you too. I also believe you need to accept something from him as well. This also includes several phone numbers to a degree.

You also could accept bribing among trying to send people away. If you accept any of those, you're letting them in. I still think you can look outside the windows mostly at night. You can't during the day because of the sun's unnatural condition. Sometimes it's just as interesting what's going on outside your home.

Not many people you see from the windows knocks at your front door either. Thankfully this is a nice short length horror game. You got to memorize stuff to get to see the other endings. Don't be surprise people ends up dead in your home. You aren't sure who to truly trust heavily playing into paranoia. I gotta be honest this was a rather creative, unique horror experience.

I also loved the unique art design with the animations. Some of it's aspects being done in 2D with some beautifully done 3D designs thrown in. There's no full voice acting it kinda reminded me of Banjo-Kazooie series. Barely anything happens during the day unless you make em happen. The night is where the game truly shines best.

No, I'm Not a Human is a game that became very inspiring to me. The fact majority of the characters don't get named plays further into the theme. I also love how distant each person's appearance is from each other. I also liked some of the endings were more hidden than I realized. RNG plays a role in those as well.

Could you possibly imagine being in such an situation? I still haven't mentioned FEMA that acts in place of governments or at least the order bound. They act like the military in suits you usually see dealing with nuclear. There's plenty to go on about them as the game keeps on going. You even get a cult visit your house I'm dead serious!!!

I know to some people this horror game don't seem like much. They failed to see exactly what it is. This is a game heavily about making difficult decisions. RNG is more on the weird side of the experience. You often deal with people not fully sure. Whose your allies or enemies awaiting to take you out? This house gets so many crazy situations.

Yes you can save your process actually two methods I found. The first method is drinking this jar near by your bedroom. The other saving method is among exiting the game. You simply select quit the game while saving it. Although if your save reaches any ending. The save you made with the jar remains. You can call to order more of that with a few stuff.

This game really gets you thinking. From the beginning you'll feel uneasy right up to the end. To me that's a great sign of a horror game. A horror game that quickly makes you feel such raw emotions. I simply love everything about this game. I am quite hype to play the new update soon. This update going to add in twelve new characters adding more insanity to the mix.

Honestly, Trioskaz you absolutely nailed it!!! Of course, I gotta mention the mascot visitor himself. A few characters will often knock at your front door. He's among those characters that's rather unpleasant. One of the last major things he says. Confirms he's a right hand monster to that one creature. Personally he reminded me of Gotou from Parasyte.

Which would be a rather interesting connection. If that turned out to be true for those not familiar with Parasyte. The story involves an high school student that came close getting fully taken over by a parasitic alien. The duo takes on more of these aliens that's been killing humans. They easily could bend in with humans making them even more terrifying.

We never fully see that creature. If you are lucky enough among looking outside. One of the last few days you'll quickly see it move in the back. I personally felt never fully seeing it was a great idea. This would led to people coming up with ideas what it might look like. Thus creating further interest into the game.

This game knows exactly what it is. When this game goes dark it doesn't shy away. The fact you never feel safe for majority of the game was a great idea. This is a true horror master piece!!! I also liked there's no true time limit. Yes there's a limit of days you could play up to.

Most endings could happen prior to Day 14. Some of these endings were wow I can't believe. They're actually in the game I will try not to spoil much. I will say this though you may not believe what you may see. I do see ways you can be a little creative. You don't feel forced to play differently.

Which is a strong dislike I have towards some game genres. The controls are virtually perfection with the option to customize em. The audio especially the sound effects further sells this game!!! Keep in mind, this game costs fifteen bucks. I felt this is way better than more expensive horror games around.

I do felt bad for the little girl. You can drink beer to quickly go to bed. You would be amaze the insane amount of details this game has. I don't have many criticisms myself. It's more about figuring out when it's best to do some things. Otherwise you are doomed to get endings you don't want. You quickly get use to trivial and errors with that.

For example not having people in the house. When the mascot visitor askes then lie about that. This will trigger an ending to occur. After I figured out how to prevent that from happening. I kept getting another ending with the gun armed with a rifle. Then I found out which day I should dig. Just remembered the bald guy needs to talk about it first.

Just make sure you previously ordered two energy drinks. To dig an hole will take away energy. Even all of it among your first dig. These drinks will give you just enough. To keep digging a little more of a hole. You also could've check your armpits in the bathroom. You will get asked by the game if you wanna get clean up or not.

This would be a good way to avoid getting that ending. I also gotta mention this cat you get to see. A woman whose confirmed to always be an visitor came with a cat. You can order two cans of cat food to feed the cat. I don't think it serves much purpose. But it's still nice to see the cat enjoying the food.

Even the little things like this cat stands out in such a huge way. I wouldn't even be surprised people already considered the game iconic. It has such an unique style about everything. Honestly, it's a huge recommendation to play this game. Especially close to or on Halloween it's well worth the holiday.

My thoughts on The Horror Game Awards 2025 (Most Anticipated Horror Game award)

Hello everyone I'm XboxClown89, we recently had The Game Awards last night. Tomorrow so happens to be The Horror Game Awards. I'm rooting for No, I'm Not a Human in a lot of awards there. I figured since I previously discussed a similar award from Golden Joystick Awards. I should do the same with The Horror Game award.

Unfortunately I previously discussed the very game I voted for. Resident Evil Requiem with a lot revealed since then. So here's what I'll do to make up for this unusual situation. I will be linking my previous thoughts blog on the game. I'm just as hyped for the other two games I voted for in Golden Joystick Awards as well.

Here is a link to that blog I written a few months ago down below...

https://jackred1989.blogspot.com/2025/10/my-thoughts-on-golden-joystick-awards.html

Before I add further thoughts onto that Resident Evil game. As a bonus I'll reveal my thoughts for games I considered voted for in the same award. I'll even reveal my prediction of what could be the Top 3 Upcoming Horror Games for the award? A very high chance this is exactly going to be the games for that.

Resident Evil Requiem

I gotten seen to a lot of trailers including game play. They stated the game to be as long as RE4 remake. Expect a lot of hours into one run. I absolutely loved how Capcom going about reveal things. The most recent surprise is Leon actually in the game!!! Now we know we got two protagonists to play as.

Now as a huge RE fan I'm really hyped to play this!!! We're going back to Raccoon City as Leon. Suddenly everything with the character went full circle. This is going to be a very horror driven game. Which in all honestly they can do a lot with that. Some might not like it since this would affect some aspects of the game play.

Although I still think Capcom going to knock this out the park. They're going in with such a risky concept. This could easily become a serious contender to win Game of the Year awards. An handful of Resident Evil games has before. Resident Evil being one of the absolute biggest names in horror gaming.

Many people including myself expect to be totally mind blown pun very intended. Resident Evil Requiem is going to be an RE game the world never forget. Yes I'm more upset GTA VI once again won the same award again at The Game Awards. I really hope RE9 blows it out the water pun very intended!!!

Introduction to upcoming horror games I considered voted for

Now there's an handful of other upcoming horror games I'm also quite hyped for. Sadly unlike Golden Joystick Awards only get one vote. Of course that vote had to go to Resident Evil Requiem. Considering the amount of nominees being a lot. I only plan to cover the ones I have the most interest in.

To be fair, I did look into all of them. It didn't really change much to be honest. But a few of them are somewhat on my radar though. I was very surprised to see Silent Hill: Townfall nominated. I kinda forgotten about it. Routine is currently the only one out right now. I had a little interest in OD from the legendary legend himself Hideo Kojima.

I'm sure majority of these horror games going to be decent. I can't say much about the games clearly sequels or some form of a continuation. I haven't gotten into either of those franchises in question. For me I had a good idea which horror games to eye up. Now I'll reveal two horror games outside my predicted top 3 horror games for the award.

Fatal Frame II: Crimson Butterfly Remake and Halloween respectively. Fatal Frame II is a remake of a classic PS2 horror game. You play as a girl using an unusual camera against spirits. I been told the original game was absolutely terrifying. Resident Evil started the recent remake horror games trend.

No I never played any Fatal Frame games. What I do know of the games. They're usually done in third person while exploring. Using the camera is done in first person. Some of the ghosts I seen from footage sticks with you a long time. You never truly save just an camera to defend yourself. This was before Japanese culture notably to start showing up in video games too.

I felt in the right hands this easily could be a strong contender for Game of the Year award hands down. It's heavily Japanese horror inspired that creeps people out. Not to mention, the visuals back then were absolutely amazing. Going by what I did see of the newer version. I do wanna give this Fatal Frame game a try.

My brother possibly more hyped up about Halloween than myself. One of the companies involve with many licensed horror games. Including Killer Klowns from Outer Space: The Game. Obviously it's going to be heavily sticking with the original Halloween look. Which can be quite risky in many ways.

This Halloween also going to have an single player campaign. We don't have much to go on right now about that. I just hope it's more than Friday the 13th: The Game with a particular mode. There's a huge chance it'll suddenly stop following a year maybe a little less. It seems these newer licensed horror games can't stick around for long.

I hope we can play both sides in the campaign. Obviously in the multiplayer it'll be similar to those games. They also done Predator and Ghostbusters respectively. I meant it would be cool to play as a victim to survive. Situations Myers ends people in. On the flip side, hunting people down as Myers. I'm sure there's going to be a lot of kills.

I'll be honest, the most recent Halloween trailer is a bit disappointing. Currently I'm placing Fatal Frame II higher. I see the potential in Fatal Frame II. In comparison, I'm worried Halloween isn't going to be worth the wait. Halloween constantly has a notable history not being consistent. There's also the question which Halloween timeline they're focusing on?

Most of them starts with the original Halloween. Majority of them is a few Halloween movies each. Excluding Halloween 3 since they had different intentions. Before the fans forced em to bring back Myers. I do think Myers deserves to return. He also deserves a much better video game as well. It just won't be on Hellraiser's level from what was shown.

Let's be honest, even if it were. I still wouldn't place Halloween in the Top 3 prediction. Even if it were to make the cut officially. There's absolutely no way it's beating out the other two games.  I know to a degree my standards seems a bit high. Well licensed horror games usually aren't great. It's rare when actual decent ones comes out.

I felt Fatal Frame II could possibly win a few awards. I highly doubt Halloween going to win one. Even at Fangoria Chainsaw Awards honestly. I know what some people are thinking. The Texas Chain Saw Massacre (2023 video game) previously won that award. I may not voted in this year's Fangoria Chainsaw Awards.

Unrelated: I'm so happy Screamboat won their Best Public Domain Resurrection award. If I had voted that easily would've been my vote. Keep in mind, all three horror Popeye movies also nominated. Considering I'm mentioning that awards show. I should point this out because it's a weird kind of interest to me.

I did vote in last year's, I was deeply upset by that. I voted for Resident Evil 4 remake. Now that was a truly fantastic horror game!!! Personally I felt they rigged it for that licensed horror game to win. Earlier this year they ended support for the game. I'm happy that Texas Chainsaw Massacre game dead.

My predicted Top 3 Upcoming Horror Games for the award

Along with Resident Evil Requiem which I also predict going to win the award. I don't think this going to be easy for the jury to decide though. In fact, I'm expecting the jury to lose their minds over how challenging it's going to be? This could even be an showdown no one actually expected to see. I'm not just talking out my butt here.

Facing Resident Evil Requiem will be Silent Hill 1 remake and Clive Barker's Hellraiser: Revival respectively. Considering how well Silent Hill 2 remake done. In fact it previously won Game of the Year award in their awards show. More recently, won Best Video Game award on Fangoria Chainsaw Awards.

It's safe to say Bloober going to truly bring the older Silent Hill games back. We currently don't have much to go on. What we do know is this team deeply loves the franchise. If Konami lets them finish the game. I do believe Silent Hill 1 remake is going to be a strong contender. Not only that, Silent Hill 1 remake could even be among the scariest horror games in a long time.

The same also can be said for Clive Barker's Hellraiser: Revival. One of the companies involved made Evil Dead: The Game. Which had some success before it went out the way it did. The trailers really doing an fantastic job. They are using the original Cenobites was a good idea. I already know since Bradley a close friend of Barker.

He'll reprise the role for this game. He previously done so in Dead by Daylight. An statement from the team they want to go as risky extreme as inhumanly possible. They wanna make the game truly down your spines chill. This should be one of the greatest things in Hellraiser's history. A huge surprise it's meant to be an single player game.

Which is a great idea to help bring the franchise back. This Hellraiser game is going to give the world nightmares. I also could say that about the other two finalists as well. I highly expect these three horror games going to change the world. In my mind, I really can't say any other nominated upcoming horror games getting in the top 3 against these three horror games!!!

We got two of the biggest names in horror games. We also got one of the most difficult to watch horror movie franchises. This should be pure nightmare fuel at it's core. Absolutely the way they intended it to be. Personally I really would love to see the jury's reaction to this myself. This is a nearly impossible task to complete.

All three of them could easily be the Horror Game of the Year. I know I'm putting a lot of faith on my own prediction. At the same time, what else worthy enough to be in that top 3? If you answered nothing you are correct. I really can't wait to see The Horror Game Awards myself very soon. I'm going to root hard for Resident Evil Requiem to win this award.

For those impatient to skip to the end. I predicted Resident Evil Requiem going to beat out Silent Hill 1 remake and Clive Barker's Hellraiser: Revival for this award. To be honest, I really wish I could've voted for all three of them. There was plenty of nominees to justify that. Not necessary cheating either just the within rules of playing it safe.

Then again this is meant for horror games. Not having that safety net would've defeated the entire purpose lol. So I guess the joke is on me after all. Honestly, I really hyped to watch this awards show tomorrow. Let's see how many of my votes helped in picking the winners? In either case I hope those that took the time to read all of this thank you and I hope you enjoyed.

More thoughts on Elbaph Arc in One Piece

Hello everyone I'm XboxClown89, earlier this year I revealed my thoughts on the current arc in One Piece manga. It really shouldn't be a surprise we're still in that arc right now. For an story arc I originally think was going to be this critical to the story. So many huge questions I had answered. I will try to limit on not revealing any major while discussing newer thoughts I had on this arc.

For a good while a rather long flashback. Which still isn't done I'm up to Chapter 1168 to clarify. I could never imagine such massive bombs were going to dropped!!! Let's put it this way my mind was really blown with Egghead Arc. Majority of this flashback we're currently in easily outdone that!!! You could even say after a lot of consideration.

The present events making perfect sense. This is lining every major thing together perfectly!!! Some of the biggest questions are finally getting answered. I never seen an manga author do this amazing of a job writing in my entire life!!! Some of which even further confirmed my own predictions actually going to happen.

The flashback itself reveals a legendary pirate crew before it's unexpected end. Which led to an handful of it's members becoming legendary pirates later most of the Four Emperors of the Sea. There's a couple characters I wasn't expecting to show up. A particular character's actions lining up years later with all this!!!

Of course, Elbaf is a major focus in all this madness. I gotta be honest I absolutely loved their old king. Now I see an redemption story for one of his sons. I been noticing a lot of stuff that happens. Even indirectly will happen later within the story. Such as the famous saying, "History repeats itself." Some of the future stuff will line up with some of the past events.

I think the entire point of that flashback is in some way everything repeats. The insane amount of surprises I still felt isn't done yet. I would even say this has to be one of the greatest story arcs the author ever written!!! I am quite serious a large amount of it is in the present within Elbaf. This long flashback lines up it's history with some critical events along the way.

Basically what's currently going in Elbaf already happened a few times before. The fate of the country currently not certain. There's so much on the line right now. Luffy expecting a particular person from Wano to join his crew in the near future. Which lines up with Oden being on two legendary pirate crews. Considering he was that person's idol.

What I'm about to say only covered in the manga. But they might animate parts of it in the show soon. This person already getting followers that used to be enemies. Which also mirrored their idol with some of his closest allies. There's a huge chance Luffy despite not being the one to form his Grand Fleet. Possibly could get more forces within that to terrify the World Government.

Now the fated showdown of Luffy vs Blackbeard even lines up with this flashback in a few surprising ways. I can't wait for this war to start myself. We already know one of the most essential wars currently going on. This flashback really speaking volumes to it's greatness!!! Don't worry Shanks is essential to this as well.

To avoid spoilers I won't reveal anything major about his involvements in things. Just confirming yes he's in the long flashback a few ways. None of it is cameos either. I'm becoming more convinced Luffy vs Blackbeard very likely going to be the next arc. Even Boa Hancock's country involved in a rather unexpected way.

There's a few major changes I noticed with this flashback. We finally gotten a great look at things before Roger's final words right before he's executed triggered the Great Pirate Era. We also get to see a country that's completely went 360 with it's ways to a point. I also will confirm the big expected thing with Dragon aka Luffy's father happened.

I just won't reveal exactly but it wasn't what I expected. This also revealed more of Luffy's grandfather Garp's past as well. I'm just surprised after this one incident he stayed as a vice admiral within the marines. The old king had a similar dream to Oden funny enough. Both wanted their countries to join the alliance with the World Government.

Unfortunately tragedies caused both of those to not happen. Although it still left the door for their successors to eventually complete their dreams. Now this is exactly how in depth with the writing Oda widely known for. We already figured Luffy is in the foot stops of the late Pirate King. Some of the more recent stuff with Luffy mirrors Roger in several ways.

This arc is going to be a lot longer than anyone ever expected. Especially bridging all of that to the present. Directly tie things together with the next arc afterwards to come full circle. You also gotta keep in mind he does use a lot of characters. It's safe to say there's a few thousands getting closer to millions in the near future.

I honestly can't think of any other Shonen manga series with this many characters!!! I can't wait to eventually go back to what's going in the present soon. What I do know for certain is the next chapter about to further blow our minds!!! It's really impressive how much this author thinks of everything. Even the little things suddenly become rather important later on within the story.

One Piece really packs in the details unlike any other authors of his field. This arc is more or less the climax portion of the Final Saga. Of course, there's still plenty more story telling. From this point on regardless what's going to happen. The following arc going to be one of the hardest final arcs to top within Shonen manga history.

Especially if Oda maintains control over his franchise. Some of the authors ended up getting rushed to finish up their series. Even with the company attempting to make newer series not last as long. I still felt Oda going to make sure even if something happens to him. His master piece going to end exactly how he planned it.

I will give the author of Yu Yu Hakusho & Hunter X Hunter respect. He already thought ahead just in case he passed away. Before finishing Hunter X Hunter despite serious back pains. Last I checked he had a huge stack of chapters about to get added to that story. Now that's two authors of the genre I highly respect!!!

Oda also working with teams on other One Piece shows. I don't know how involve he is with One Piece: Heroines show. I do know he's heavily involved with the live action show. I'm dying to watch Season 2 of that!!! I believe he's also working with the team making The One Piece show. It's meant to be a faster pace anime show based on the famous manga series.

I mentioned all of this because we know Oda truly cares for his works as well as his fans. As long as he's still in control. I do think One Piece manga has a very bright future ahead. I also think the moment that final chapter drops. Every One Piece fan in the entire world will drop everything to read it. I strongly believe that chapter going to be well worth the long wait to read.

As for the current arc in the story. There's plenty of interesting surprises I didn't even see coming. So far the most critical long flashback the author ever written to date. Now I am thinking a rough estimation of three maybe four years. For this arc to end the way the author intended. I am not even sure if it'll be like Egghead Arc or end up like majority of them.

The later being the Strawhats saved another country from a tyrant. He previously saved a few kingdoms in this journey. Majority of royalty in those kingdoms were actual decent people. Not all nobles are bad in One Piece. Personally it would be nice if eventually the one person designated to rule an country. But majority of it's civilians heavily against.

Eventually comes together for a brighter future for the country. Thus mirroring his father's change from his old ways. This long flashback set so many things into motion it's ridiculous!!! The absolute best part is the pacing perfect in the manga version. I should point out the original anime show about to take a few months break.

I believe they're still animating Egghead Arc last I checked. Which means more time being spending on episodes based on Elbaph Arc. We just don't know if any filler episodes on the way. We do know a new One Piece movie been confirmed. Which will be the sixteen One Piece movie. Honestly I'm rather curious to see how this current arc going to end?

My thoughts on Full Moon's new movie poll

Hello everyone I'm XboxClown89, before I get to today's topic. Recently been notably more busier than I expected. On top of that I might have to delay my upcoming Games of 2025. Which could end up coming out early next year depending on things. Now I got that off my shoulders here's a surprise I didn't expect from Full Moon Features.

A few days, Charles Band himself started a new movie poll. Ideally there's fourteen movie concepts. But only ten of them getting made next year. He also stated you don't have to pick ten to take part in this poll. I always wanted to get involve with this movie company for a long time. For those not familiar with their movies.

They are low budget horror or porn movies. I mostly watch a lot of their horror movies over the years. These films aren't for everyone either. Essentially movies the bigger movie companies refuses to make. They have a notable track record with such weird movies. I am prepared to go over my ten picks for that poll.

At one point, they were partnered with Paramount. Some of the finest movies came out in that era. They became notably smaller budget movies after that ended. Even right now a lot of their fans are supporting to keep em in business making more movies. Which is similar to Troma another famous indie movie company that doesn't appeal to everyone.

1. The Grim Rapper

2. Models Vs Werewolves

3. Svengali 2026

4. Subhuman

5. Sirens of Seduction

6. The Cyber Bride

7. Lost Girl's Private Diary

8. The Haunting of Eleanor

9. Dungeon Dolls

10. Robotica

11. Buried Secrets

12. Catacombs of Horror

13. Terror Express

14. The Haunted Heads of Doctor Decapto

Hopefully by the end of this you have a good idea what to expect from their films. I do wanna say Buried Secrets was very close getting picked. I do think it had a great picture with it's description. To me kept coming off like Leprechaun series. In particular, a group of people find treasures. Suddenly they're being stalked by an supernatural being.

Svengali 2026 was obvious going to be a porn film. The picture of that was alright with it's description not selling me on wanting to see the movie. I don't wanna say it sucks not in that sense lol. It just didn't peak my interest even by a little bit. The Cyber Bride was kinda meh at best. Going by it's description, an woman created a ridiculous robot she ends up loving in fall with.

The same robot ends up doing the same with her. Personally the other robot concept was more interesting than this. I don't wanna throw salt it just wasn't my thing. The Haunting of Eleanor is a weird love triangle involving an alive woman and two ghosts that's a couple. This one could be either horror or porn considering that concept.

It sorta had the same reaction I had with The Cyber Bride. I don't think there's going to be much to work with. Especially with a lot of the movies I picked. I'm respectfully revealing how I felt about the movies I didn't pick. Before I start revealing my thoughts on my ten choices. I should point out Band been using AI to help make movies faster.

It's very likely AI going to get a lot of these movies done. Although, he previously tried an ten movie concept that didn't fully happen before. I'm actually curious if these ten movies going to happen next year or not. In all honestly, I always respected what he's done over the years. Same with Lloyd Kaufman from Troma.

1. The Grim Rapper

This movie was previously in the ten movie planned I briefly mentioned. As soon as I fully saw the picture for the movie sign me up!!! The concept was the most unexpected among all of them I felt. A greedy record executive uses an AI to revive a murdered Hip Hop legend. This dead guy has a cursed boom box.

Also going by it's description, the characters gets trapped inside the music studio. Suddenly the dead going after the living. Honestly, I do welcome such out there concepts for a horror movie. You see a lot of similar horror movies. You just want something different this could be it!!! The Grim Rapper absolutely sounds like something only Full Moon would make at it's core.

2. Models Vs Werewolves

I will be honest I originally wasn't going to pick this concept of a movie. It involves five ladies that goes out to have fun on a rare full moon night. But there's werewolves close by. To me it's sorta like Zombies Vs Strippers. I guess we could assume if this gets picked. This would be a spiritual successor to that. It's an concept only Full Moon would attempt.

What's next Soccer Moms vs Vampires? I'm just curious enough to vote for it. My actual hype isn't going to be high. Especially with some of the movies I'll be talking about. I'm not used to see werewolves in their movies either. I actually expect this be a rather trashy movie. Only the right people could enjoy it thing.

3. Subhuman

I actually liked this picture a lot. This guy named Kyle enters the mind of a woman whose not an human. He ends up becoming a prisoner in his own apartment. His only hope is one of his neighbors, Heather to come save him. This reminded me of Silent Hill 4: The Room with some similarities. The description doesn't even give us clues what this evil woman actually is either.

I do liked the title since it's surprisingly fitting for the concept. I would say this is mid among all my choices. At the same time, this could even up being better than I expected. What I do know is they could do a lot with that concept. I just wished it would've happened before Band started using AI. To be fair though Subhuman could stand out from some of his similar films.

Indirectly Full Moon also has Subspecies series. Band also involved with Dreamaniac possibly making this it's spiritual successor. This goes to show don't attempt reading a different being's mind. Bad things are doomed to happened. I do think this fits Full Moon's history of movies well. Not sure how well the final film going to turn out though.

4. Sirens of Seduction

The picture alone sold me on the concept. We have this guy whose obviously an vampire similar to Count Orlok from Nosferatu. The movie is about a man that uses severed heads. He has a collection of female heads. Suddenly this is like Shrunken Heads in a few ways. These heads were carved from alabaster, ruby and crystal and draped in silk.

Both involves an man commanding shrunken heads. I expect this to be a darker, twisted take on that. Professor Grantham forces these heads to do horrible things. I wouldn't be surprised somehow they turned on him. I actually hope we get to see the process of making these heads. You can tell I actually wanna see this movie if it happens.

5. Lost Girl's Private Diary

I know the title doesn't sound like much. Everything else quickly sold me on the concept. The picture works wonders I loved it!!! The story about a struggling writer that finds an old diary. Which so happened to be written in blood. She attempts to steals stories from that book. Ends up completing an ancient ritual.

The world now has to deal with skeletal demons. Right off the bat it's remind me of Evil Dead series. You know when anyone reads a particular section from the Necronomicon. The deadnites starts talking the life it's virtually the same here. What really sold me on this was skeletal demons. I love anything skulls as well as skeletons it's right up my alley!!!

6. Dungeon Dolls

Three women are trapped inside a basement dungeon. They so happened to be dressed up like life-sized dolls. The gamekeeper whose wearing a mask confirmed in the description. They have to go through a series of tasks. I think you can see which direction we're going in. This is essentially Saw was more of a sex movie.

To me, this all sounded interesting. I liked the picture for the concept to a degree. I do wanna see how truly mess up things could get. Ultimately they are trying to escape to survive. The fact they're forced to dress up like dolls is pretty mess up stuff. The title is perfect for the concept. I'm already going in with ideas what could happen is a good sign for this!!!

7. Robotica

This had one of the shortest descriptions across fourteen movie concepts for the poll. Yet this was one of the very few I wanted right on the spot. The story follows two security guards during a night shift. While patrolling an adult toy company a particular female sex doll prototype. Named Robotica malfunctions I liked where we're going with this.

Sure I did quickly think of M3gan. This is more like the first two Demonic Toys movies. Both those movies took place in the same toy warehouse. In a weird way this could be considered a spiritual successor to those movies. The picture itself was not what I expected at all. This could even be similar to Child's Play remake to a degree.

8. Catacombs of Horror

I will be honest I took a little extra time deciding to pick this movie. The description actually reveals a large amount of stuff. A young woman traveling to a village in Italy. She ends up feeling in love with a local guy. We still haven't gotten to parts of the description that gotten my attention. She falls into the catacombs that's under his family estate.

Hidden inside the catacombs is a creature. She ends up being marked as a sacrifice by her boyfriend. Who gets revealed to be the creature's devoted high priest. I know that's a lot to take in right? They actually could do a lot with this concept. Her boyfriend pretends to be on her side. When in truth, he wants to give her to the creature is pretty mess up!!!

9. Terror Express

The story is about a murder-mystery bachelorette party on a luxury train. When the bridesmaids open an antique puzzle box. This caused three seductive incubi.. It's hard to tell if this going to be an horror movie with some sex scenes or more of their weirder porn films honestly. The fact this already sounds like a weird Hellraiser style movie.

This is happening on an train no less. Just like that Black Sabbath song, rest in peace Ozzy Osbourne. The picture is among the weirdest I'm not kidding. We have five people freaking out over a severed arm. Honestly, regardless which type of movie it turns out to be. I still quite curious to see what actually happens.

10. The Haunted Heads of Doctor Decapto

I absolutely loved this picture representing the concept. We have a cloaked man holding three severed heads. He's also surrounded by more floating severed heads. We also see a red moon just behind a house with some creepy trees. The story involves a disgraced medical research that's been hired to assist a mysterious doctor.

He lives in a remote forgotten mansion in the wilderness. This doctor shows his new assistant his collection of human heads. Which are somehow alive, aware and surprisingly young. DeCapto discovered a method for immortality. However it only works on disembodied heads. The real reason his assistant there is to improve it's effectiveness or his head gets added to his head collection.

For me, this was among the most interesting of the concepts. Some could criticize it revealing a little too much. Then again just having half this description would've cost it a lot of votes. Honestly whoever wrote all of this thank you so much. I'm very interested in seeing this movie if it's among the ten selected movies to be made next year.

In a way, it's sorta like Puppet Master series. We know another method of immortality was used on the puppets. Going back to Decapto in a cloaked was like servants of Sutekh. Once again I gotta mention Shuriken Heads. Even Band himself confessed he had a thing for heads. I do think in the right hands AI or not this could be a rather interesting movie.

Conclusion

Assuming ten out of fourteen movies from this poll happens. I would be interested in seeing every single one I voted for out of the lineup confirmed. Hopefully they end up on Tubi I'll would like to watch them all. I'll even review all of them together in one long movie review blog. I'm just glad I can finally do something with Full Moon Features.

If I had to confirm which three movies I selected I wanna see the most? The Grim Rapper, Robotica and The Haunted Heads of Doctor Decapto respectively. The Grim Rapper was an idea previously going to happen. Everything about it screams Full Moon in a nut shell. Robotica despite how limited it's description was to the other movie concepts in the poll.

What was presented ended up being more than enough to sell me on the concept. The Haunted Heads of Doctor Decapto really gotten my attention. I felt this one has a huge potential to be something amazing. I would be very happy all three of those movies happens next year. I guess we have to wait for the results of that poll soon.
