For me, though, it’s all about Game Feel. To me the controller is the most important thing because it’s the direct link between you and the game. I honestly think that if a game can nail game feel, it would still be enjoyable or engaging even if the rest of the game sucked.

Most games benefit from intuitive and responsive controls, allowing yo…[Read more]

Those are some pretty large icons. But I like the system. Kudos.

Yeah, the PM system isn’t worth it.

You’ll need to get into the gallery and delete some of the repeat images I added because I didn’t think they were uploading. I couldn’t figure out how to do that.

It seems I can still set the images. I guess they simply mark an error in displaying them for the gallery.

In response to the topic at hand, I really want to sell S.O.M.A to people. It got excellent reviews but nobody is talking about it anymore and it was quickly forgotten by people. The biggest reason IMHO is that people dismiss it as a YouTube Let’s Play scare game when it actually isn’t. The game is 80% Sci-Fi and 20% Horror, with almost no…[Read more]

[quote=4175]I haven’t yet wrapped up all my feelings on it. I can’t tell at this current point (about 18 hours in) if I love the way it doesn’t hold your hand or if I hate the way it doesn’t explain things better. Those are two sides of one issue and I haven’t yet put my finger on the why I would feel one way or the other. That said, it’s got…[Read more]

God, this game is really working me over. It’s been twice already that the game just ruins my shit in the way it handles quests. I got “stuck” for at least 2 hours thinking I didn’t have the requirements met to get the next story quest because the fucking icon to start it is red combined with the fact it doesn’t mention if you’ve completed the…[Read more]

The process starts. I actually feel very intimidated.

I’m going to need to learn how to use the buffer-record feature on my capture device because, unlike other games, I can’t just record the whole game and then just go back to the things I want to highlight. I liked Xenoblade Chronicles but I never actually beat it. That was around 25 hours IIRC…[Read more]

We already know PlayStation VR will be a major part of the show. I’m hoping they manage to sell me on it.

I was lucky enough to try the Rift DK2 over a year back and have been excited for VR ever since… but now matter how long I wait the wait just keeps getting longer. I’m already sold on the Oculus Rift even if it’s $500, so if Sony manages to…[Read more]

I had Splatoon pegged for best shooter because it was the most unique, but not for best multiplayer because the lack of voice chat which is so essential to feeling like you’re playing with other people. I had Halo 5 pegged or best multiplayer despite thinking it was just a CoDified Halo game. Halo and CoD have never been as identical to each other…[Read more]

I’m struggling to remember the big announcements at The Game Awards. For me, the biggest news was Psychonauts 2. That and Konami not letting Kojima attend the awards but this doesn’t count, technically. FucKonami.
