this is a fast, bloody and intense twin stick shooter with platforming. the sound design is very impactful and the graphics have a suprising amount of character while in motion. this game has pedigree. its the same devs who made Soldat on pc, the multiplayer 2d doom. i'm having a blast with this. very, very challenging and the essence of 'one more go' gaming.
this looks terrific, and good value. the plot seems a bit twee but not a problem. now all we need is Harmo Knight, Final Fantasy Rhythm and that mobile game of SNK beat-em ups Rhythm game
Castlevania Rebirth is wonderful. i've played that more than any other Vania. Artstyle Light Trax is fantastic too.
I loved the wiiware selection. sure there was some crap, but also some unique and clever titles. another favourite is escape vector, far superior on wiiware than 3ds
same, but fifa seems very polished and benefits from not having a crappy story mode. EA deserve kudos for producing an ungimped, smooth performing sports game. FIFA retail wins by a err.... ball length
yup. getting this. seems like such a natural fit for docked and on the go gaming. two tribes and engine put some serious polish on their games. very appreciated
hell yes! i played the first over and over on wiiu and 3ds. will buy a retail copy if i can but download will be fine for the time being. steamworld dig was one of the best games on 3ds and this is a vast improvement to the formula
ahhh.....lovely ridge racer. sega rally is a better game but there is nothoing that compared to ridge racer for home arcade style thrills. so much style
i will be getting this. simply as a nicely remastered story mode. this is the definition of beautiful side-scrolling artwork. the plot, gfx and sound are extraordinarily good. akira yamaoka tunes and an amazing story.
oh and Dragon Quest Builders 2. So stoked about that. the giant turd of unmet expectations and gassy sales pitches like the e3 sales room is blown away by a ninty 45 minute vieo. well done
absolute belter of a game. it aint like f-zero though, i could grumble about that comparison for days. what i would like to see from ninty is an f-zero modelled on the snes version (with updated artwork) retaining the simple flat racing and an emphasis on time trials and online ghost mp a bit like Trackmania.
have made dozens of attempts that ended badly. requires concentration it must be the absolute business in local multiplayer. easily recommended. its like shiren the wanderer meets top down doom with a ridiculous level of customisation
picked this up as a fan of twin stick shooters and rogue-likes. excellent balance, loot, weapons, swarms and mini-bosses. the music is outstanding. have made 3 good runs through the game getting 'round half way with the fortress type. i personally love the combination of a heavy area of effect left hand weapon and rail gun right hand weapon. immensely replayable
