Rate the Game: Week 84

**M-A-G** · 11-09-2021, 09:18 AM

Well, last week's Rate the Game was...well...um...I mean, I don't want to use the word "disaster" or anything but sadly Shinobi wasn't as popular among the TPWW Universe as I might have believed. I'm kind of wondering why I even bothered adding it to the pile. I guess ninjas were all the rage back then. I mean, you had Ninja Gaiden. The Ninja Turtles. Strider. That counts, right? Well regardless let's see where the poor sap ends up on the list. Let's take a gander...

Well it's almost fitting that Shinobi ends up sharing the same spot as Ninja Gaiden. Both have their fare share of frustrations and what not. Plus they're ninjas. That goes without saying. Anyways, let's move away from last week's showing and take a peek at what this week has in store for us. Hopefully it'll be a title with a bit more recognition among the good people of TPWW. Show us what we're dealing with this week, bowl....

Ta-da! Oh, sure, NOW the bowl wants to give us something horror-related. This would have been perfect about 3 weeks ago.

Anyways, we're bringing Capcom back to the forefront as we take a look at the monster fighting game, literally, Darkstalkers! It's a franchise that often gets overlooked in comparison to something like Street Fighter but maybe there's enough love for it here to land it in a good spot on the board. Or maybe it deserves to be forgotten and cast down into the pit at the bottom of the list? What do you think? How does this game fare with you all? Rate and discuss and share and have a good one. Until next week!
