Naughty Dog beweist mal wieder eindrucksvoll, dass man auf dem Markt zu den besten Storywritern überhaupt gehört. Natürlich sind einige Entscheidungen kontrovers, allerdings ausschlaggebend für die gesamte Handlung, die von Anfang bis Ende vor allem ...more
As I am getting older, I am just not buying into the idea that more game + more fun game, even if the base gameplay loop is an enjoyable one; experiences should be carefully tailored to maximize the experience, even in open world games such as Days G...more
There are some gaming experiences you wear a smile through the entirety of their play time; usually, these are short, enriching experiences, as the longer some games turn out, the less the magic feels preserved. or...you're a Mario game. For the ent...more
I am not sure what I was expecting from an ostensible tech demo for the Playstation 5, but after absolutely engorging myself on the charm of Astro Bot: Rescue Mission, I can said that my expectations were absolutely shattered once again, culminating ...more
As far as the story and character tropes go, this is pretty meat and potatoes. Predictable, doesn't reinvent the wheel, but everything is well executed and satisfying to see through. The sheer amount of optional skits and party dialogue, plus a c...more
It was ok. Had its moments, mostly mediocre and boring, but it had some really nice levels too. Overall though the story was mundane and nothing to write home about. If you like futuristic stuff and what the distant future could look like tech-wise ...more
Always gonna be an uphill battle Sometimes I'm gonna have to lose Ain't about how fast I get there Ain't about what's waiting on the other side It's the climb
A great game with excellent scenery, however, I felt like the main storyline was simply too short. Other than that, it feels so nice swinging around New York during wintertime. That alone is probably a reason to buy this game – hehe.
it is staggering how well this still holds up. an incredibly important and formative game which effectively laid the groundwork for countless later titles and popularized what i consider to be some of the most essential game design trends. on top of ...more
A wonderful spin on the series that does a great job at giving our mighty protagonist a new beginning. The combat is fluid, the world building is great, and the soundtrack rivals the original games. With plenty of places to explore, things to collect...more

There's a beautiful simplicity in the jank that is Grow Home; I am reminded of Pikmin in the cartoonishly, smaller than life approach Grow Home takes in its objective: Get back to the space ship to go home. Instead of gathering spaceship parts, you'r...more
I've been a fan of Remedy since the Max Payne days; there's just something about their narrative blend of action and supernaturality that really resonates with me. And, while control gets the paranormal right, I cannot help but feel it's a step downw...more
It is definitely a lot of fun and all the different worlds are so beautiful to look at and run around in, but there are some caveats too. Most things are rather easy, especially boss fights, and the story has some beats that feel really out of place ...more
i think this one's a bit of a hidden gem. it controls super well, and i love the gory, gothic look and feel. it's not quite as tightly put together as rondo, but for my taste this is easily one of the better games in this series.
I normally am a big fan of the "games exploring mental health" mini-genre, like Celeste's perspective of depression, or Hellblade's integration of psychosis into the gameplay. But, the difference between those games and Sea of Solitude is that they h...more
Through the power of emulation - even something as cheap and plastic-y as an RS-97 - it's possible to visit games that just slipped under the radar, to really get a full scope of what a library produced. With Dragon Ball games, you never really knew ...more
Unpacking's cute; it's the kind of chill, remarkably simple puzzle game one can sit, sink a few hours in with relatively little stress added (though some of those kitchens man...), and have enjoyed the experience without it leaving a profound impact,...more
There is something to be said about putting over 100 hours into a game across three weeks: It has a satisfying gameplay loop, systems that don't turn you off from it, and just enough likability to not feel burned by what you're playing. That's Fantas...more
