🕹 High Score Day #30 - https://highscoreday.com I think my favourite thing about these daily games is learning just how much pointless game related shit I've stored away all these years.

🕹 High Score Day #29 - https://highscoreday.com I had to wrack my brain for the last three. I'll talk about those in spoilers below as not to ruin it for the rest.

🕹 High Score Day #28 - https://highscoreday.com The last one gave me pause solely because I forgot the game went to London.

🕹 High Score Day #27 - https://highscoreday.com

🕹 High Score Day #26 - https://highscoreday.com

🕹 High Score Day #25 - https://highscoreday.com

🕹 High Score Day #24 - https://highscoreday.com I had no idea what number 4 was.

🕹 High Score Day #23 - https://highscoreday.com Hard one today. The two I got wrong were games I had never heard of.

🕹 High Score Day #22 - https://highscoreday.com I absolutely adore zombie/horror games so if I hadn't got 5/5 here I'd have been pretty disappointed.

🕹 High Score Day #21 - https://highscoreday.com All of the games featured in todays one are fantastic, they're well worth playing if you don't mind a slower paced experience.

🕹 High Score Day #20 - https://highscoreday.com I had no idea what the last one was. Looked very cool though.

🕹 High Score Day #19 - https://highscoreday.com That last one is tough.

I really hope they hold off on Marina Shafir. I have enjoyed her work on AEW Dark, but her match on Dynamite wasn't a great showing. Fortunately they haven't overdone it, they haven't made it 100% obvious that Marina is going to win so I hope they continue the streak. It makes no difference if someone beats Jade at 30-0, or 31-0, it's all the same thing so they can be patient with it. I'm all for Ruby Soho, or Toni Storm ending the streak. I'm even down for someone like Julia Hart to end the streak, especially if the House of Black storyline leads to a gothic cheerleader gimmick where she just squashes everyone.

AEW does have a bloated roster. That said I think some of that will solve itself as most of the talent signed in year one will not be offered a new deal, while those that Tony Khan likes enough to keep around will make up the new Ring of Honor roster. I don't buy the idea that they're signing too many ex-WWE guys. I mean yes they're hiring ex-WWE guys, but unless you haven't been paying attention everyone is an ex-WWE guy. There is a reason WWE have released almost 250 wrestlers in the last 2 years alone. WWE pretty much hired the whole independent scene over the last 5 years. Yet despite that every current title holder in AEW hasn't been in WWE, while the majority of the AEW roster is also made up of people that haven't been in WWE. So yes Tony Khan is hiring more ex-WWE talent, largely because it's hard not to at this point, but none of those ex-WWE talent are in top roles right now. This is not a TNA/Impact type deal, at least not yet. I do think AEW have an issue with not letting storylines go though. What storylines are going on right now? Adam Page vs Adam Cole which is mostly an Undisputed Elite title grab storyline right now. (I think that will transition after tonights episode of Rampage) CM Punk climbing the rankings. He is on the path for the AEW Title, but needs wins to get there. (Basic storyline to keep him in a holding position while Page/Cole plays out) MJF/Wardlow storyline with Wardlow trying to get out of his contract with MJF (This has been some of the best entertainment on Dynamite the past couple months, I can't wait for the eventual payoff) Blackpool Combat Club storyline with Moxley, Bryan, Regal and now Wheeler Yuta. (Fantastic storyline right now punctuated by incredible matches) Jade's unbeaten streak currently 29-0. That will likely be coming to a head at some point, will she make it 30-0? (Another basic storyline to get the TBS Title over. Hopefully whoever ends the streak is pushed to the moon) Sammy Guevara and Tay Conti against American Top Team. This is a continuation of what Cody Rhodes/Brandi Rhodes was doing. (First real example of AEW not letting go. This should have ended when Cody Rhodes left) Darby Allin vs Andrade featuring Andrade Family Office, The Hardys and Sting (This storyline will hopefully end next week, but it has dragged on for so many months at this point it's tiring) House of Black storyline with Julia Hart (AEW needs to resume this as Julia Hart got the black mist like 4 months ago. I have heard of slow burn storylines, but she's been wearing that eye patch for months) Jericho Appreciation Society vs Proud N' Powerful and Eddie Kingston (Basic storyline. I feel like AEW are dropping the ball on this one though as Jericho seems likely to win the feud) Serena Deebs' blood feud with Hikaru Shida (This is one AEW should probably let go of soon, but the matches between those two are always great so I don't mind too much) There are others that I'm forgetting. AEW do a great job of getting as many people as possible into storylines, I just wish they were better at dropping the storylines that don't work. In the end though I think AEW is in a good spot. Has the shine worn off a bit? Yes, but AEW is also 3 years old now with next month marking the 3rd anniversary of AEW's first PPV Double or Nothing. We're not in the honeymoon period anymore so some things are not going to be as exciting and that's something that will take getting used to. Is AEW still relatively high quality entertainment? Yes, especially if we compare it to WWE which is massively average right now, but I'm curious to see what AEW does going forward. That said I'm still enjoying it even if the novelty has worn off a bit.

🕹 High Score Day #18 - https://highscoreday.com

🕹 High Score Day #17 - https://highscoreday.com Tricky one today. Number 3 I got the right series just not the correct numbered release. The last one I had no idea.

🕹 High Score Day #16 - https://highscoreday.com A nice and easy one for today.

🕹 High Score Day #15 - https://highscoreday.com This one was pretty tough. I only got the last one because typing in something gives you a drop down of options with game names and their platform. Now, I didn't know what the game was called, but I know what visuals each platform is capable of so I just looked for the platform name in brackets and chose based on that.

🕹 High Score Day #14 - https://highscoreday.com I have no idea how I remembered what the last one was, I haven't played that game since it launched in like 2003 or something like that. Pretty good selection of games today.

🕹 High Score Day #13 - https://highscoreday.com Today was a pretty good one. I had no idea what the last one was though.

🕹 High Score Day #12 - https://highscoreday.com Todays guitar theme was pretty good. I think this one was the easiest since starting this high score day thing. Number 4 was a complete guess though. I knew the series like @hogso did, but it could have been from literally any of them.

I guessed the same

🕹 High Score Day #11 - https://highscoreday.com Number 3 was a rough one. It could have been any number of games from that specific genre of game.

I'm curious when we'll see Max Payne 1+2 Remake as they announced it mere minutes after the ink dried on signing the agreement. I think it'll be in pre-production for a while as they slowly work through their current projects. Alan Wake 2 is in full-production and set for 2023 release, while Control's Multiplayer spin-off is also in full-production, no release window for that though. Then there is Control 2 which is likely still in pre-production, and then they have Project Vanguard for Tencent which is also at some stage of development, not much known about that one outside it being a live service game. Hard to say where Max Payne 1+2 Remake fit in. I would love to see it as soon as possible, but Remedy are busier than almost any other studio in the industry right now.

🕹 High Score Day #10 - https://highscoreday.com I had to rack my brain for number 2. It was one of those where it was on the tip of my tongue, but my brain couldn't formulate the answer for many minutes. The rest I got within 5-10 seconds of seeing the screenshot.
