Game of the Year is almost upon us! While I pretty much know what is going to take top prize, I still got a bunch of games to go through until I can deem it final! I got a big break between school terms coming up, so I'm thinking about doing a lot of catching up, playing games like....
15/12/2013 - Update!
8/2/2014 - Updated Again!
I bought it forever ago, but haven't really been in the mood to play it.
Part of me wants to wait to play it on PS4. Part of me needs to play this now.
Forgot to add this game originally. Played a bit of it. Hella interesting concept, but a little rough around the edges.
It's more of a series I love, even if it hasn't been the best lately.
I love a good beat-em-up. Waiting to get that Vita.
Edit: Played a little co-op. Think I'd prefer single player...
How did I forget this?
This looks to be the right amount of stupid fun to make a stealth game work.
Final Update: Gunpoint is fuuuuuuuun, but I don't think I NEED to finish this to make my Game of the Year list.
I have failed you, my dark lord Luigi. I have failed you, in this holiest of years...
...In this, the Year of Luigi, I have brought shame upon my household.
Did anyone remember this came out this year? Anyone? Pandora's Tower? Wii games? Anyone?
Haven't touched the series yet and hoping the earlier titles will convince me to jump into 4.
How did I forget this?
I just need a good day to sit down and blast through this game.
Edit: Sorry, not gonna get around to it.
I'm like a healthy chunk of the way through this game, but it is massive.
Update: Enjoying the more I play it. Been running around lost a bit too much though.
I've played like 10 minutes of this game. Why does everyone look like they're made of plastic? It weirds me out.
This game seems incredibly charming and unique. I'll probably love it.
Edit: Complete!
Somehow, I think I'll pass the #TenGamesBetterThanBrothers test, but we'll see.
Update: Played about an hour and a half of brothers, which I guess is about half the game? I wasn't exactly impressed? Hopefully it gets better, but I doubt it. My main issues are with the fundamental gameplay and storytelling elements of the game, not really the moment-to-moment experience (It's had some fantastic moments so far, actually).
Update 2: I'm enjoying MOMENTS of Brothers, but not exactly the core of the game itself.
Final Update: Passed the "Ten Games Better Than Brothers" challenge with flying colours.
The founder of the Memetroidvania genre. Waiting to get that Vita.
Edit: Complete!
I loved ZHP. It was fantastic. I've heard disappointing things about this, but I still want to check it out.
Update: Popped it in. Let's see how this goes.
Final Update: It's okay, but it's no ZHP.
Might as well add this. Almost finished it (have all the badges), but I need to make that final push to beat the Elite 4.
Final Edit: I really don't need to play more of this to decide its merits.
THIS GAME
Update: Love it! But I need to have some proper 4 Player experience.
Update: Got that 4 player experience. Love it!
I backed this game and I don't remember why. I do like Strategy RPG games though.
Edit: Complete!
More indie metroidvanias to play. This one looks a little rough, but maybe it will surprise me?
Final Update: NOPE.
I've become a pretty decent fan of this series in the past few years. Been hearing good things about this entry. Just waiting on that Vita.
Edit: Got a Vita and this game. Still have to sit down and play some of it though....
Edit: OHhhhh noooooooo... this game's reallllly goooooooddddd. Now my whole GotY list is in turmoil again.
Edit: Finished. Excellent.
