Phoenix Down is hosted by Drew Leachman and Matt Quinn. Each segment focuses on an older game the duo decides upon with another member of the ZTGD crew or special guest. They play through and discuss the mechanics and how well it holds up today. It is the ultimate in backlog elimination.

Happy New Year, everyone! It’s hard to believe that it has already been two years since we founded CLOVERS, and a full year since the reveal of the Okami sequel project.
Shadow of the Colossus, Okami, and Silent Hill 2 are some examples of games that still offer a mighty good time in 2024 if you pick them up today.

I had no idea Binary Domain was backwards compatible. I know what I'm downloading.
I would like El Shaddi, Afterburner Climax, and outrun 2 please. I am sure that there are other games as well but those came to mind for me right now.
The game holds up well, except the lack of it being any fun, oh, and the fact you can't skip any of the long and boring story. It's pretty though, but it is seriously one of my biggest regrets buying this game. Don't believe the hype when it comes to this game.
I liked the time I spent with the game quite a bit. It is a beautiful world full of quirky strange characters. I think really the only negative that I had with the game was that the extraneous content makes up the bulk of the experience. If I hadn't had to spend so much time picking up treasures, reviving and feeding non essential plants and animals, I think I would have enjoyed a streamlined version of the game a little more.
I loved the world with the variety of locales, characters, and activities, and I do enjoy how the game builds using newly unlocked abilities to access new areas in new and old locations. For me it seemed gameplay driven more than anything else; the goal seems to be acquire all the abilities and use them more than it is to complete the story.
For what it's worth, I enjoyed it and look forward to finishing it. Also, I would never want to skip the dialogue because they are funny and well writter, but I do wish you could advance them more quickly. Minor gripe in a pretty and pretty great game.
