How is that even possible?
I hear you cry.
Well, I’m not entirely sure either.
2023 has had a pretty great first six months, I reckon.
And if it’s free too?What a joy.
First-person explorerBabbdiis set in a grim Brutalist city you want to leave.
All you need do is get a train ticket and catch the train.
This turns out to be a little more involved than expected, but not much more.
you’ve got the option to complete Babbdi in under two minutes without using glitches.
I never did find out what the trumpet is for, beyond delighting me.
Isn’t that enough?
Sheesh, Hi-Fi Rush, why dont you justmarrymusic if you love it so much.
It’s an infectious love, of course.
The result is, frankly, a better game.
Thats not a spiteful response to nostalgic anti-remake NIMBYism, it just is.
Also, it doesnt needa billion modsto run on PC.
They won’t remember.
It’s the kind of game that would make a fascinating show and tell between different scrapbooks.
What things did you choose to save?
And what does that say about you, as a person?
Giant monster charging at you?
Place down a stack of Crate Karakuri to spawn a wall and stop it in its tracks.
Need to shut the distance while the beast is stunned?
Launch yourself forward with a Spring Karakuri.
So they set about making a friend.
- still quicken the pulse even now when I’m sat at my desk thinking about them.
Cor, those were some good battles, them.
Maybe Ishouldgo back and check out the multiplayer now that I mention it.
I could do with a spot of COH right now, you know?
As you progress, though, Outlanders reveals even more of its playful side.
Find the right time for it, and you’ll thank yourself later.
TheResi 4 remakeisnt just a simple retread of the 2005 original.
Enemies are more vicious.
Characters have more depth and emotion.
The story is more cohesive, yet no less dumb than before.
Oh, and that original game?
A wonderful, wonderful game.
The mysterious collector in a decrepit mansion, eerily enquiring about sunken treasures.
The withered lighthouse keeper with knowledge of things strange and otherwise unknown.
The fishmonger who requests mutated aberrations that would absolutely kick-off a zombie apocalypse.
Trundling about on that ocean, youre a small boat.
Sure, you might leave with a plan.
Ill be back by sun-down, you think, a simple adventure to make some cash!
Just like with Genshin, the presentation of Star Rail is beautiful.
Its stupid, and spectacular, and a hundred hours later, it still makes me laugh.
The plot advances with stylish and sometimes startling cuts between scenes.
It’s not always clear where, when, and maybe even who you are.
Great retro look to it all too.
And you will probably really like Tiny Life.
Third-person should not work in this context at all, but it just… does.
it’s possible for you to’t just sit back and third-person-peek around a corner waiting for a good shot.
Aside from this, it’s a startlingly polished and nice-feeling shooter.
As I said before, I wish the Diablo influences spread deeper into loot.
Hours of play later, the item drops still feel like a missed opportunity.
That said, I am still playing hours later.
In the meantime, I have skeletons to choose.
I’ve beenforcing everyone to play it.
Do you hate joy?
Are you averse to smiling?
You fear happiness because you believe it is fleeting!
Katamari offers an alternative to your theory: happiness can be contained!
Happiness can be bottled!
The rolling of the Katamari is a joyous act!
Praise the stupidly named, but no less joyous, We Love Katamari REROLL+ Royal Reverie!
Diablo 4
Hayden:I have icky feelings aboutDiablo 4.
The best part is that my friends are all there with me, too.
