Well... that sucked.

-Story-
If you read Windwakerguy430's review, skip this portion, but for the sake of my credibility... you must become the King/Queen of Albion to stop an invasion of evil Gak. Read Windwaker's review for the score I gave this.

-Combat-
Dear Princess Celestia... GIVE ME COMBAT THAT ISN'T THIS!! Guns and spells are OP, and you can usually luck out with your melee attacks. And they ACTUALLY put an achievement in the game for not dying? Fuckin' insulting...
Score: 0/100

-Further explanation on Story-
Already explained, you know how this works, either be a good boi and let people...

This.
Shit.
Is my LIFE.

Story:
Evil has risen from whoever got the necronomicon-- damn you Twilight Sparkle-- in their backyard and accidentally said the "release great evil" phrase. You have to sort it out and probably burn both the evil and the book. Sorry, Twilight, but somepony needs to keep the world from imploding.

To be serious, this is one game I'm not going to spoil. You should experience the story for yourself. I love it.

Rating: 88/100

Gameplay:
This is Bejeweled: the RPG. You fight monsters on an 8x8 grid, collect colors of mana to cast various spells, match skulls to deal straight-up damage,...

Button: "I take a year off of game reviewing to come back... to this. What the serious fuck."

Story:
I wish I knew what the whole story was, because as you'll see later, I can't even finish the game due to things I never foresaw. This is an unbelievably buttfucked effort. I'm sure it all pays off in the end but... damned if I ever get there.

EDIT: Whoa, they fixed their booster failures! Now I see what it all leads up to! Okay, Story, you win.
Rating: 62/100

Combat:
Well, at least the mech fights are fun. You match up 3 or more nodes of a single type, or more types if you manage to find yourself...

*It's been 90 minutes*

Button Mash: Well, looks like my mom's porkin' a pony. She said if she wasn't back after 90 minutes, she's probably doin' it. So as of now, I'm the stallion of the house, and you know what that means: *breaks out a cider mug and fills it to the brim with Sweet Apple Acres hard cider* Time to write my first DRUNK review! I needed to be while getting my head pounded by Sacred 3's shitty attempt at humor. PonyTube is a goddamn blessing.

-Humor-
This game fails epically when it come to this category. I don't know what'll make my head hurt worse; the impending hangover I'm gonna...

Button Mash: Ugh, FINALLY beat this game! Took me HOW LONG?
Button's Mom: Showing contempt for another finished game, are we?
Button Mash: Only because I made a stupid race/class combo choice. Never pick a Newman. EVER.
Button's Mom: Why not? I thought they made great Force characters.
Button Mash: In the first Phantasy Star Portable. They nerfed TECHNICs in the second. Even though being a Hunter sounds more appealing after hearing that... they're not exactly muscleponies. Sure, my damage was serviceable and I did manage to get my fair share of kills, which helped me level up high enough to finally...

Okay, you know I have that 1-year Gamefly subscription. If you read my Top 10 Video Games list, you saw Phantasy Star Portable 2 in the honorable mentions list with the reason given that I have yet to finish it. The reason for that was the final boss of the game kept pulverizing my plot too many times to count. Guess what I get to rectify either today or Monday! After I get my long-awaited revenge and close this digital plothole, I will get right to work on a review for it... hopefully. Stand by.
Hello, everypony. Button Mash here. I know I said I was gonna review FF6... but I accidentally my save data(that was intentional; didn't know the Vita wipes your data if you eject the memory card while the Vita is on). So instead, I have a list for you. A Top 10 list. Hey, Windwakerguy430, my collab partner for that piece of shit Final Fantasy 13, does top 10 lists. Why can't I? So now I'm gonna take some time out of my busy gaming schedule and itemize and explain why these 10 games rise above the rest. But first, here are some honorable mentions and why they didn't make it in.

Button Mash: Ah, another day, another review. What should I do next...?
Button's Mom: Morning, sweetie.
Button Mash: Morning, Mom. I'm trying to decide what game I should review next. I was thinking Dragon Age 2, but everypony knows that game sucks.
Button's Mom: Yeah, I didn't care for that either. I've been hearing a lot of good things about that new South Park game though.
Button Mash: You mean The Stick of Truth? I actually got that as a rental from Gamefly. Flew through it in two days.
Button's Mom: Aren't you a bit... young for that game?
Button Mash: I haven't reviewed a game in a while. I...

I know, you're all wondering: "When is Button Mash gonna review another game?"

Well, it won't be too long. I got a year's worth of Gamefly, so I'll be playing a lot of games. I'll probably review some of them. In the meantime, hang tight. I'm not dead. I've just been busy trying to make friends in Equestria when I'm not sitting on my plot trying to make sense of what I'm playing, which does happen occasionally.

I think I'll review that recent South Park game next... what do you ponies think?

So, I heard this game called Destiny came out. It was supposed to be the biggest game in the universe, surpassed by nothing, with the best feature set this side of Grand Theft Auto 5.

Then the reviews came out.

It was highly regarded as a boring grindfest. A waste of 60 bits. Well, here's my own 2 bits.

These guys at Bungie are going to drag this out over 10 years. 10. BUCKING. YEARS. Yeah, it's boring now. But give it some time to come out with DLC and shit and you'll have a sleeper hit. There's a reason long-term plans work.
Button's Mom: Aw, isn't that nice. My little Button Mash is doing something he wants to do that doesn't involve--
Button Mash: Mom, what are you doing in here?! Can't you see I'm about to review another video game here?
Button's Mom: Wait... did you say you were reviewing video games now?
Button Mash: Yeah. I already did 5, and one was a collaboration with another pony. I'm seeing if this will get me my cutie mark. Plus, it's fun to praise good games and crap on the bad ones. Celestia knows Master Sword and I really dug into Fable 3...
Button's Mom: But I like Fable 3...
Button Mash: That's fine....

Well, it's my first foray into reviewing a western-themed shooter set about 100 Earth years ago. How does the game stack up? We shall see.

-Story-
You play... for 99% of the game anyway... John Marston, a former government employee who went rogue and turned into being a good ol' American cowboy, back when people actually GAVE A SHIT. This is literally all I can say without spoiling any events for you. But rest assured, the story is worth it. But fuck the ending. I hated it.
Rating: 82/100(would have been higher, but the ending...)

-Gameplay-
Aim gun. Shoot things. Kill things. Loot things. How can...

Oh sweet Celestia, where do I even begin with this heaping pile of horseapples?

-Story-
All right, so you go to stop one of these fal'Cie things from taking over your homeworld of Cocoon... but once you actually get to it, you and your comrades turn into l'Cie. As such, you either complete your Focus, a task the fal'Cie gives you to do, before your brand's eye fully opens or you turn into a changeling-- I mean Cie'th. If you do complete your focus, which is different from fal'Cie to fal'Cie and l'Cie to l'Cie, excluding your Final Fantasy version of the Mane 6, you become a crystal for time indefinite....

So my first review did about as well as a truckload of bottled farts. Can't say I blame you; first reviews are always hit-or-miss. Plus, ToM: Arena is a pretty damn new game, localization-wise. Ponyville always lags behind in terms of free stuff considering how out-of-the-way we are to bigger towns like Manehattan, Fillydelphia and even Canterlot. But this next game I'm reviewing has been out for years. Safe to say everypony played this game during its heyday. I got to the party somewhat late, in 2011, but by today's standards, DS2 is still a bucking masterpiece. Let me tell you why.

Hello, everypony. My name is Button Mash and I decided to start doing video game reviews in my own club. I will be doing a 0-100 review scale, because 1-10 scales have been done to death. Decimal points are included because I really want to be accurate in my review. The first game up for review is one that hit the PonyStation Network this last Tuesday, entitled Treasures of Montezuma: Arena.

-Story-
You are Montezuma, the Incan ruler who's trying to save Annakaona, his beloved wife, from the clutches of both Cortes, a human who seeks to rule the world, and this weird-looking... thing called the...

(Button Mash is trying to hit up Sweetie...)

*Button Mash: PLEASE SWEETIEBELLE! PLEASSSSEEEE!!!!
*SweetieBelle: Fine. I'll go with you. BUT! I'm bringing my big sister Rarity along with me!
*Button Mash: YEAH!!!

(Later that night at SCC...)

*Pinkie Pie: Alright you two silly fillies!! What'll it be?
*Button Mash: A strawberry/chocolate milkshake with TWO straws!!!
*Sweetie Belle: AND a big bunch of french fries!
*Pinkie Pie: Alrighty then! Be back in two shakes of a wamboozle with a pinch of oodledoodleblubberfish!!
*Rarity: Pinkie!! Would you be a dear and be as kind as to bring me a LARGE ruby cupcake?...
