King Mark 3,631 Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 Been playing this for the past week (Fallout 4 on hold again) .It's an RPG that felt more like a 3D fighting game. There's no gameworld to explore (except the overworld map) , just small areas where you do battles to advance the story. Some of it was fairly challenging THe Seven Deadly Sins,Knights of Britannia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s still a game from 2005, just with beefed up graphics and some gameplay tweaks. It’s very stiff in its execution and storytelling. With Guacamelee 2 out, I’m going back to finally beat the first game from several years ago. Trying to do it on Hard, I’m get my ass kicked by the third boss. Also making my way through Batman: The Enemy Within. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Koray Savas 2,251 Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 It’s a Telltale game. They really haven’t made much progress over the past 10 years but I find the games enjoyable in a relaxed-pass the time sort of way. I enjoy their take on Batman in that they take liberty with the IP and subvert expectations. It’s still very much inspired by Nolan and the Arkham games in terms of aesthetic, but Bane, for instance, is a Luchador. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kasey Kockroach 2,344 Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 Anyone else prefer Banjo-Tooie to Kazooie?

Quintus 5,399 Posted August 26, 2018 Author Share Posted August 26, 2018 Xbox Game Pass has an offer on whereby new customers get two months access for £2, so I took them up on it purely so I can play Gears of War 4 on PC. I've always been a fan of its multiplayer, but I wasn't paying 50 quid via the Windows store for something which I couldn't be certain ran well or had an active online population. Turns out it is remarkably well optimised and cross platform play (with Xbox) means I'm finding matches very quickly, so yay. Absolutely loving it, the gunplay and movement in Gears PvP was always so brutal and hardcore and I'm glad to see they haven't dumbed it down all these years later.

I just read that entry and it's not what I mean when I use it. And yeah it's a very memorable line from Donnie Darko. I use it within super niche fanbases to indicate that someone isn't as committed to being a fan of the thing as they act like, strictly in a humorous way of course. Like if someone is on JWFan a lot and reveals they don't own ET in any format or something. I'd doubt their commitment to Sparkle Motion! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kasey Kockroach 2,344 Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 I wish I could get behind the Sonic Mania love, but even upon revisiting, I find it's less a "true Sonic 4" and more a "Sonic 'best of' show". Fun, but not much reason to delve into it when it's time better spent with the original Genesis games, which are vastly better designed and structured. And, ya know, aren't mostly re-used levels.

And, ya know, aren't mostly labyrinthine levels that punish you for attempting to utilize the speed that the games ostensibly wants you to gain.
