Re: 460 - DOOM Eternal

The Marauder in Doom Eternal almost made me quit the game. Not in it's first appearance, which was pretty forgiving, but when it continued to show up in subsequent encounters and insist that I abandon the bouncy, rhythmic combat, and instead play an entirely different game. The Marauder is the kid o...

Re: 383: Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes/The Phantom Pain

Gameplay is pitch perfect and the story suffered greatly for it, along with Konami's recent unusual recent business practice. If I was to pick one thing I hated about MGS V it is the credit sequence you had to sit through before every single mission, I understand it was a way of Kojima making sure ...

Re: 349: Resident Evil 7: Biohazard (Biohazard 7: Resident Evil)

Felt this was a good one to chime in on for the first time... For me, Resident Evil 7 initially felt like a betrayal--not because of any resentment toward it's first person perspective or a longing for the block-pushing puzzles of yesteryear, but because it appeared to have ratcheted up the horror b...
