I like how the artist used the negative space to suggest a lone man in a hollow, virtual world, surrounded by nothing but cartoonish enemies and money/coins. It’s truly an homage to the surreal experience of the post-modern man in conflict with nature.
It’s a corporate problem. Fucking Balatro was a smash hit for design, art, etc. These ‘next gen’ games are pushed because bigger numbers are absolute, and quantifiable. A CEO likes number go up, but real artists don’t push polygons.
Why does the PS3 require firmware upgrades for the blu-ray encryption key but not a normal blu-ray player? My standard blu-ray player still plays everything just fine and never gets updates.
The generational leap from PS3 -> PS4 wasn’t that significant already, and that happened more than 10 years ago. The biggest difference seem to be lights/shadows and texture size, the latter of which balloons game size and can tank performance
Ps2 Mortal Kombat games were the best, they have beem sliding ever since.
Deadly Alliance is a slog for story/Konquest but a fun game.
Deception is so so good, one of my favourite games ever. Doesnt really hold up as well as Id like but it has brilliant features that I miss in every modern iteration. Namely the best konquest implementation. Chess Kombat.
Shaolin Monks, another one on par with Deception. I have to replay this next.
Armageddon is carnage, just fun fun all the way through. Every character from the entire run of the franchise is playable, it is everythimg.
