That looks like a really fun, well-crafted level... I guess it’s a Mario Maker kind of night! Read more

The fact that this happened is great news. It shows a company willing to expand for fans in both the games development and the employ of those who love their product, finished or not. Read more

Didn’t Valve and Blizzard and ID all used to do this pretty often?

TLOF seems like it actually had a greater emphasis on collection given how essential careful looting of every single room was to your survival. Read more

Here’s what’s really going to kill you, a’la that episode of The Big Bang Theory where Amy “ruins” Raiders of the Lost Ark ... Read more

I just love the attention to detail put into this game. It reminds me of Metroid Prime which Retro took level design lessons from, well, Doom! Read more

I’ve never liked the fact the series Uncharted, a game about a dude who makes his living uncovering secrets, handles collectibles and unlockables in such a pedestrian manner. Read more

I should give this game another run-through. The boss design seems to favor light, mobile builds more often than not, so I have yet to try out all of the magic and ranged weapons. Read more

I STILL play Timesplitters 2 - it’s my favorite game for when I just want to run around and shoot stuff. A sequel would be fantastic. Read more

The bit with the shotgun was great. Read more

This chunk of one of the later levels calls back to MAP07 (Dead Simple) from Doom 2, complete with mancubi spawning on the four podiums.

Turkey Puncher 3 is from DOOM 3 (in case y’all didn’t know) Read more

I also backed this. I ended up also getting the Darkroot expansion since it comes with a ton of new game variety, but passed on the mega-bosses. They look damn cool, but that’s pretty pricey for just a new boss and nothing else. Read more

I got in on it. I’m SUPER excited to see where the game gets to by the proposed date. I wasn’t QUITE hyped enough to buy all the add-ons, but the Darkroot one was tempting. Read more

Ugh. This is why I just play offline. I get that this invasion stuff is part of the series and people seem to like it. But to me, it’s just frustrating. I’d like to just play the game with everyone’s goofy ass messages on the ground but without some dick showing up and interrupting me. Then you have to worry about… Read more

Every time I think I’m ready to choose PC over console for this gen another story like this comes up. Either it’s cheating or broken patches or bad ports or a game just not being released for PC. It’s like there’s a conspiracy to make sure there’s just enough issues that consoles are still at least worth considering. Read more

Time for Joy! Read more
