1·1 year agoDead Space 3 after playing the first two. It starts off as a Gears of War game until a very cool space Uncharted moment. I know it’s the weakest one but going in knowing that makes it easier to enjoy it.
Let’s see how this pans out.

0·1 year agoJust finished Dead Space remake and have begun playing Dead Space 2. The remake is really phenomenal. It’s proper horror, with amazing ambient sounds that keep you on your toes, and clever ammo system that kept me switching to weapons that I didn’t care about. The metroidvania touch is a great change from the original, making revisiting older sections rewarding as you progressed in the game.
DS2 on the other hand feels pretty life less after playing the remake. I’m aware it’s a well regarded sequel, but it’s much less scary and almost a different genre of a game. I think I’m half way through and I don’t think I’m able to immerse much into it. It’s probably a great game from its era and seems less exciting in front of the remake.

Gaming@beehaw.org•Microsoft is closing down Xbox studio The Initiative, with Perfect Dark killed as well
7·1 year agoClassic case of how unrestricted money and a hotch potch of talent doesn’t make a studio. It needs to have strong leadership, vision and some constraints.
Microsoft will never learn that throwing money at the problem isn’t ever the solution.
I’m playing Resonance a Plague Tale Legacy and I am finding it quite interesting.
While it is loosely directly linked to the previous games when it comes to gameplay, there are enough elements that remind you of the original games. I also like how they use past and present in a smart way to move gameplay and story further.
If you liked 3d prince of persia games, you may like this one too.
I’ve put a pause on Cyberpunk 2077. I wanna level up before getting into main story too much.
