mohab, do games w Rematch review

It suuuucks as a football game. Controls like ass.

Someone bring back PES or cook up a replacement, please. I'm tired of these shitty football games.

Quicky,

IMO, PES was always so much better than FIFA. Matches were slow, measured, low-scoring exercises in passing and breaking down defences. FIFA always felt like a game, whereas PES was a simulation. I’ve not played either of their descendants for years, but I’ve watched my girlfriend’s kid play FC25 and it seems far more like fucking Pokémon than a football game.

Rematch on the other hand is something else. It’s not a football game, despite its appearance. It’s a future-sports game, like Rocket League or Speedball 2. I’m enjoying it from that perspective.

Agree with the controls though, but I’m still putting that down to my own skill issues.

mohab,

Agree with PES being a really good football simulation. I always viewed FIFA as a cynical and jaded attempt at arcadifying football—never really been my cup of tea.

I can't be bothered with the camera management in Rematch. It sucks so bad the game literally tells you get used to no look passing/shooting because you won't have time to adjust your camera. Even when I kinda got used to it and got to score a few goals, I didn't feel any satisfaction—it felt too silly.

echodot,

I haven’t played any of the recent FIFA games but I remember the last one that played had truly awful AI. I never understood why they didn’t have a mode where you could have multiple players controlling different team members. This game actually seems to have that. In fact from the trailer it seems that this might be exclusively multiplayer which is an interesting idea.

Although this game is a football game in the same way Balatro is a poker game

mohab,

I never understood why they didn't have a mode where you could have multiple players controlling different team members.

Older PES games had that and it was super fun before Konami's pachinko machine addiction lead to the franchise's gradual demise.

Rematch is exclusively multiplayer, yes.

SkunkWorkz,

Even in the 16bit era International Superstar Soccer was a better game than FIFA.

Quicky,

SWOS FTW

ErrorCode, do games w Eve Online developers CCP are being sold off, according to reports

EVE will always have a place in my heart. At my peak I had 4 accounts and was one of the directors of a corp. It also meant I was putting in about 3-4 hours a day on weekdays and more on weekends.

The only XBOX product I’ve ever bought is controllers.

I loved VVVVVV. It was such a satisfying game.

Lojcs, do gaming w Hyper Light Breaker early access review: a flashy but hollow roguelike with few of Drifter’s charms

It’s 3d??

GammaGames,

Yeah, I also thought it was a weird decision when it was announced. Risk of Rain made the jump though so I was hopeful, but this still has time to turn around

I don’t know if leaning into the Velma effect will be a profitable long-term play

The oldie judges need some analogies they can relate to, nothing wrong with that.

More than likely. And a Skyrim horse at that.

CookieOfFortune, do games w Elden Ring is "the limit" for From Software project scale, says Miyazaki - multiple, "smaller" games may be the "next stage"

As long as they allow different types of play and have quality of life changes. Also improve the interface and performance on PC.

It’s ‘name your own price’, so if you choose not to support the indie dev, it’s free. I’ve kinda liked that move since bandcamp.
