Keepers is a weekly segment in which I discuss games I’ve played that I’ve seen fit to keep after playing. I generally sell a game that I’ve finished, so the only reason I keep one is because I plan to replay the game some day. Classifying a game as a “keeper” is generally a badge of merit.<\/em><\/p>\n

The first console I ever bought myself was the original Playstation, thirteen years ago. And the first game I got for it was Armored Core. I played the crap out of that game, and I loved it. Beating the final boss was nearly impossible, but I eventually did it.<\/p>\n

The sequels were also a lot of fun. I played some of the PS2 sequels, but never loved them like I did the Armored Core games for the Playstation 1. Even though I don’t have my Playstation hooked up right now, I made sure to keep Armored Core, because when I do hook it up, this will be one of the games I want to play.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
