The Simpsons: Treehouse of Horror XXII (2011)
Oh diddly dear
I recently started rewatching the Simpsons on Disney+. I had forgotten how funny it was, seasons 1-10 never fail to make me laugh. However, I've been trying to catch up with more recent seasons, from 12/13 onwards I haven't seen a great deal of episodes. I don't know why I am still watching into season 23. I guess I was such a huge fan as a kid that I am expecting it to get funny again. This treehouse of horror episode was the most disappointing episode to date and I have been really struggling for a while. Such a shame this fantastic series has gone this way, boring, unoriginal and not funny!
Saints Row (2022)
Just awful
When I saw there was a reboot of the SR franchise I was all over it, the trailer looked awesome so I was happy to preorder. 10 hours of disappointment. I kept playing in hope the game was a bit slow to get started and that the repetitive nature would get broken up with something a bit more fun, before this could happen I had completed the game.
The story was so uninspired, so dull, nothing of note really happens, what the hell were the larp missions all about? Although to be fair they added a tiny amount of fun to the game. Every mission, every side mission is exactly the same (save for the relentlessly boring venture missions, which I only persevered with to unlock main story missions - omg the toxic waste one!!). Each mission takes you somewhere to kill a group of witless, terrible AI enemies. Same enemies each mission, just might be a few more or a few less. Oh and the repetitive one liners "you shoulda stayed at home with mama" urgh.
So in conclusion, I loved SR1, 2 and 3 (not so much 4 but it was outrageous which gave it something at least), this is a train wreck worse than that of the one in the game. If you are a lover of all things SR, avoid this, its like a really, really, really terrible rip off of GTA5!!!
