Been playing Vanquish. The game feels like a Japanese take on then-popular cover-shooters like Gears of War, but with faster pace and mechanics like sliding that incentivize not relying on covers too much. Like with Platinum’s titles, there’s deep mechanics and really getting into the game starts when replaying the game’s missions.
I’ve been buying skateboard sims trying to chase the high I got from Skate 3 but none of the more modern ones are able to replicate the sheer fun of it somehow. I no longer own a ps3 and Skate3 runs like shit on an emulator so my options seem limited.
Iron Pineapple on YouTube has a series called Steam Dumpster Diving where he reviews Souls-like games in the style that you mention.
It is unfortunately limited to Souls-like games even though he himself admits that his definition of Souls-like is very loose (if there is a parry system and a dodge button, its a souls-like. Bonus points for having a bonfire mechanic). He also reviews new and old games, and I know you specifically mentioned new or upcoming games. He does skew towards newer releases however.
Not OP, but I like both for different reasons. V doesn’t have the districts, which changes gameplay pretty significantly. I also prefer the art style of V. That being said, I like the districts and usually play VI, but go back to V almost as often
That reminds me about the music of Leonardo Workshop world’s miracle in Civ 2. I remember very little about Civ 2, but this wonder is with me forever:)
Oops, my b, misunderstood. I prefer civ V, and seems like a fair number of people do too. I like the art style, and game mechanics better in V. Admittedly though I could never really get into VI, but it seems like a lot of people prefer it too.
I keep a collection on Steam of the games I’ve beat and just add them into the collection as I go. Going back through prev pre-Steam pc/console games I’ve beat probably wouldn’t take that long to remember I guess, but I don’t know where I’d store it or who else would care in my life.
I recommend it, this would be a great opportunity to learn. It shouldn’t be too bad, you have a pretty basic document so you won’t need to use any complicated features. I would use it just to line things up so you can scan your list easier.
Postal 2. The game mechanics and open-world flexibility have aged amazingly well, it’s still very funny, and I love the way the game’s level of violence firmly depends on the player’s actions.
Plus the Postal Dude’s petition to make whiney congressmen play violent video games is needed more than ever.
On Android I miss Spaghetti & Marshmallows, where you had to build towers out of said materials. That was a wonderful game with great physics but sadly only runs on very old phones.
