I guess we are currently living in bittersweet days for fans of the Legacy of Kain games. After two decades without any kind of new entry or re-release, the remasters of the Soul Reaver games arrived like a torpedo of joy, bringing two of the most impressive gothic action games of their time to a newer audience, in their best shape ever. That was followed by the release of the first new iteration of the franchise in two decades, Legacy of Kain: Ascendance, which, well, sucks, fully retconning...
I would like to start off my review for Super Meat Boy 3D by apologizing to each of the developers’ mothers. Ladies, I know you have nothing to do with this game’s development, but boy, did I curse you whilst playing it. My bad. Blame your children’s creation. What was once the king of 2D “I want to ragequit but let me give it one more try” has finally been transitioned into the third dimension. Welcome to 1996, Meat Boy! I guess you made up for the delay by being as brutally diffic...
I love when a developer mainly known for a specific genre decides to delve into something completely different from their usual output. Sometimes, this results in unexpectedly good results. Remember when Rockstar came up with the shockingly fun Table Tennis? Or when Ubisoft teamed up with Nintendo to make a gun-based, Mario-themed turn-based strategy game? Today’s experimental anomaly comes from Arc System Works, the folks mainly known for their FANTASTIC fighting games such as Guilty Gear ...
Yakuza 3 has always been considered one of the best stories in the franchise, according to its passionate community, but considering the fact it had always been the oldest game to never receive a fully-fledged remake, it has always been the “roughest” one to revisit. Its heartfelt story, revolving around Kazuma Kiryu’s quest to take care of kids from the Morning Glory orphanage, is one of gaming’s most impactful tales about growth, maturity, and fatherhood. The announcement of a Yakuz...
I would like to start off my review for GreedFall: The Dying World by stating that I loved its predecessor, released back in 2019, even though not many other people shared the same opinion. Between its Bioware-esque character development, incredible world building, and surprisingly decent combat, GreedFall make me fall for its developer, Spiders, making me want to venture through its first few games, as well as look forward to its future releases. I really wanted to showcase that I was saliva...
Well well, color me surprised. Not even a year into the Switch 2’s life cycle, and we already have TWO racing games not featuring Italian plumbers, actually focused on driving real-life cars, increasing the size of your garage, and just taking advantage of the Switch 2’s portability to enjoy an occasional free race every now and then. GRID Legends was the first one to drop, and I’ll be honest, it set the bar incredibly high from the getgo. I was wondering how Gear.Club Unlimited 3 would...
There are two things I dislike a lot from Sony’s current approach to Playstation 5 exclusives. The first one is the fact they obviously pivot towards the huge, sprawling, expensive, cinematic AAA games meant to be “reasons for one to buy a Playstation 5”. I think they have been lacking in variety over the past few years in that regard. The second main issue is the fact they usually announce games years before they are actually shipped, in an attempt to generate buzz and hype; I honestly...
Let me get this out of the way: I might not be the biggest fan of Blumhouse as a studio (I prefer outings of theirs like Vengeance or BlacKkKlansman over, say, Paranormal Activity), but I really appreciate their production model, giving totally creative freedom and a wide theatrical distribution to up and coming filmmakers on a tighter budget. I was really intrigued with how well their production model would fare after the announcement of their videogame publishing label, Blumhouse Games, whi...
Back in mid-December, my Instagram reels feed was plastered with gameplay footage from a game that seemed interesting, but had visuals so rough I wasn’t sure if the footage was actually from a real (but cheap) game or if it was just another AI slop polluting my feed. A few weeks later, and not only do I find out that said game is actually real, and trendy amongst PC gamers, but that it would also get a full release by none other than Devolver Digital. Said game is Quarantine Zone: The Last ...
One thing I love about Devolver Digital’s curation is that they are always able to procure, support and release games that no one else would have ever given a chance otherwise. It doesn’t matter if it’s an actual marijuana dealing simulator, some ultra psychedelic crap revolving around graffiti, or a re-release of a so-bad-it’s-good FromSoftware cult classic from the 2000s, they almost always come up with something unique to offer to their fanbase. This time around, however, they came...
