Re: Review: Grim Fandango Remastered - Still One Of The Greatest Point-And-Click Adventures Ever Made

apa-sl

Good game. Just beat it on Switch after last time playing it on my PC several years ago as a kid. I really enjoyed the story and climax of the game. In 2 or 3 spots I've got a little bit irritated as my idea for puzzle solution was ok but clunky '90 mechanism in 3 D game did not worked perfect and I had to try few times.

More such remasters please! (Monkey Island, Full Throttle, and some sci-fi with alien planet (?) Exploration (do not remember the title)

Re: Review: The Inner World (Switch eShop)

For me it was a fun game. Lack of touch controls was not too big issue. When playing part 2 with touch controls I was surprised that in the end I went back to button controls. For me it is a strong 7/10 game.

I can confirm that after the patch game is great on Switch! Looks sharp and looks smoothly.

Re: Bulb Boy

Very pleasant and uncomplicated game. I loved it's asthetics and feeling. But be aware - it is short! 2-3hours? max

Re: LEGO City: Undercover

apa-sl

It runs acceptable while handheld (but bellow 30fps). The controls are not as good as in Zelda. Humour is there but... i don't know - sold it after 2 days as I prefer to spend time on something else

Re: Thimbleweed Park

@apa-sl Finished. Took me 11h. For me it is a strong 9/10 - very classical point&click. Personally I liked the ending.

Re: LEGO City: Undercover

I am quite dissapointed. Story - quite good but not great. Graphics - nice but laggy while driving a vehicle. Controls - somehow not as precise and 'sharp' as I would want. Humour - a simpler one

Maybe it is because I've tried it just after Zelda and with other games waiting in line. Neverthless put it on sale after trying for only 2 days...

Re: Thimbleweed Park

Just got this game and played for a day. Feels very 'at home' for a person that loved Lucast Arts point&click games & later on the Broken Sword series. Humour is there, it's hard to stop playing. Will see how it goes further

Re: Wii Celebrates Its Fifth Anniversary in Europe

apa-sl

In my country the Wii was just... laying on the shops' shelves after the premiere. So what I have done was to go to the biggest shop in my city, buy all available Wiis, get them on ebay and help the fellows in UK that strugled with Wii shortages Of course one piece gone to my home and I had a blast with my friends playing tennis & box.

Re: Review: Rayman Origins (Wii)

apa-sl

Great platformer but not sure if better than DKCR. I have to admit that the graphic looks great on the Wii at 50' plasma set (was worried that there will be to much pixels compared to HD but everything looks great).

Re: Review: Silent Hill: Shattered Memories (Wii)

apa-sl

Just ended it. I have to agree with the others - great and truly unique game. The story and the climate through the gameplay is awesome. Also the controls are really nice and intuitive. It is true that there is not much fighting, but we can fight in almost every nowadays game. What I want is a story with nice twists and climate. Here you'll get both (starting from the game's menu!).

Re: Talking Point: The Most Memorable Nintendo 64 Games

apa-sl

My biggest Nintendo-related dream: to see Rare at it's glory with an outstanding sequel of Conker's Bad Fur Day. Best and sadly most forgotten games ever. OF course Super Mario 64, Paper Mario, Mario Kart, Wave Racer, Turok and N64 Zeldas also kicked butt. I remember when in Primary school I was watching screens from turok in one magazine (they were the size of a post stamp) and could not believe that Turok had such realistic graphic, haha

Re: Review: Disney Epic Mickey (Wii)

apa-sl

I love the concept behind the Epic Mickey but I have to agree that there are some technical flaws.

pluses:

  • story
  • whole idea
  • concept art
  • old disney movies as extra contect (currently unlocked 2, hope there are more).

minuses:

  • camera
  • uneven level graphic design - some moments are genius, some are very good and some are just good
  • I was dissapointed at the begining by the stage with mad doctor, I was unfamiliar with the controls and camera, graphics were far worse than in the intro and I thought that the whole game will be crap. Fortunately after playing it for a while it turned to be a very good production

Hope Disney will make another part with similar concept of the story and art but far more superior technically and graphically
