No game should be that difficult to survive and still have a lives counter. You want to make a game that punishing? It had better be closer to VVVVVV than Super Ghouls 'n Ghosts.

Asura's Wrath

Its a good thing that the cutscenes are cool, because absolutely nothing else about the game is.

The combat is pathetic, the story is the same, an the scoring system is broken when I get "perfect, perfect, perfect" for the 3 ways the level is graded, and the level itself I get a B.

Also, how does "excellent" on a QTE result in my death?
EDIT:Yeah I'm half tempted to just watch the videos on youtube instead, this game is really buggy to go along with everything when I can have a half-full health bar and die with the health bar still half full!

I'm also playing the Linux version of The Journey Down after only having played the free version before. Haven't gotten very far yet, but I really enjoy the atmosphere of the game and the fact that I can play it without the hassle of having to use Windows.

*Fingers crossed for a Steam Linux beta invite later this month.*

Tokyo Jungle

Its gameplay is not too far off from Cubivore, (has more focus on stealth and is faster paced, and is 2.5D kinda (as opposed to the more open world of cubivore)).

Its very fun running around as a tiny little dog and eating rabbits and other small creatures.
I really want to play it some more later thats for sure!

Cubivore

Tokyo Jungle

EDIT: Come to think about it, do you guys reckon it would be interesting to have a series which compares two games, something modern and something classic thats similar?

(I mean I have a large gamepool, and alot of niche game knowledge. I think I may be able to pull it off if I'm motivated enough to try it)

EDIT 2: Heh. Tokyo Jungle vs. Cubivore vs. Pac-man! XD

Hell Yeah! Wrath of the dead rabbit.
It's as good as it sounds. But it is frustrating me so much.

Broken Sword 2 Remastered

Reminds me of how much I hate death scenes in adventure games when they're taking too long to complete and get you back in the game. This whole thing feels like they focused on the bad parts of adventure gaming just for the heck of it. Sokoban/bad labyrinth puzzles and non-deducible triggers rule this one. Ugh, and people thought this was good stuff once?! Thank God I never bought this on my PSX. This would have been a LOT of wasted money back then.

I thought it would be the next best thing to Broken Sword. I was mistaken. I started using help extensively because I just want to get this game behind me.

I hope I didn't invest in such nonsense with BS5.

edit: Finished it; the last Nico puzzle is pure nonsense. You know exactly what to do from the first moment on, but still you need 15 tedious minutes to get it done. Rubbish.

Just a story tip. They don't say it all that well, but Samus is in shock because of the baby dieing from Super Metroid.

It floored me when I played it. Not the anything to do with how good/bad it was. It was the fact that I decided to try it after not playing a single game of the series since Super Metroid.... and it was the direct sequel. I thought that was kind of funny. "Huh, well I guess I didn't miss anyting...but why is she talking and why are they discussing relationships?"

This bothers me, so fixed.


Also, if she was so attached to the infant metroid, why did she give it up to a laboratory to run tests on it?

It gave its life to save hers, yes, but it's an animal. It's like if her loyal puppy got shot. Oh, wait--It's like if her [edit]normally rabid[/edit] loyal puppy got shot after it was stolen from an animal research lab she sent it to, and this all after she had obliterated the rest of the entire canine species from the universe.

Celebrated finally getting a working lappy with some Civilisation V Gods+Kings!

(Seriously its taken me about 9 days to get this laptop. First I get a broken one, then the one sent to me gets lost in the mail. FINALLY I pick up a third one today and she works a treat! (Hey, its an i7 laptop with a nvidia 630m, I will not give up at all till I get it!)

Completely crushing the opposition with China. Military, economical and scientific might. I have half the planet already in the mid 1700s (and in industrial era! XD), while the remaining three nations fight over their island.

Oh yes, once I go nuclear, they will all be turned to dust! >: D

It is a pity. They were my favorite company once upon a time.

Though I must ask. What's with the broken image to an amazon page with Kindle Fire?

Sonic Generations

Okay final boss aside, (which is a cheap broken mess!) I actually have forgotten how fun this game is.

On my new laptop it runs really really nice and pretty and fast and it plays and feels great.

I really do hope Sega follow up on this with another great Sonic game (yes I am ignoring Sonic 4! XD).

XCOM: Enemy Unknown.
I just can't stop playing it, so fun!

The Testament of Sherlock Holmes.
Fun game, i'm almost at the end. My only gripe is that the whole story told via the children in the attic is highly annoying, thankfully there's not too much of that though.

The Walking Dead.
Ofcourse!

Finished Other M. I didn't hate the gameplay nearly as much as I expected to, but god was the story awful. At least I knew it was awful going in. I'm starting Metroid Fusion now and hoping to be finished tonight.

I didn't think Other M had an awful story, really. Not particularly inventive, but I did like seeing her relationship to Malkovich.
