News::Up Up Down Down: Dyad

I know I'm in the minority here, but I wasn't completely won over by Dyad from Right Square Bracket Left Square Bracket. Don't get me wrong I totally appreciate that the developer took a risk and attempted to make something vastly different from a lot of what's out there. That said, it was hard for me to fully enjoy what Dyad had to offer because I simply didn't think it was deep or rewarding enough.

News::Resident Evil 4 Ultimate HD Edition Review | Gamerant

Resident Evil 4 is as strong an experience as it was in 2005, no matter how pretty it looks. But as the ultimate edition of the game, this port stumbles where it doesnt have to, and invites criticism instead of silencing it once and for all. A shame, but for those who never played through the title, or those thinking of strolling (or sprinting) down memory lane, this one is a no-brainer.

From Strategyinformer.com: "As I stare at Detective Grassi from across his cluttered desk, all I can think about is Joe. Hes doing life on The Rock, and here I am hauled in front on the blues for breaking and entering. Like most of the cats in this town, though, Grassis into me - all Im facing is a slap on the wrists. I do whatever I gotta do to get ahead - Im faithful to my husband, but I aint no square, you dig? As the detective reads my charge sheet aloud, cigarette smoke hangs thick in the air. Jazz music echoes from a gramophone in the adjoining room. The moon twinkles beyond the ominous barred window that overlooks the Bay. Why didnt he tell me about the money? And why did he get into bed with that slime ball wise guy Mickey? Its up to me now. I need to get Joe off that goddamn island.".

News::WindForge - Review | GamingLives

GamingLives takes a look at the Steampunk-inspired action RPG from Snowed In, featuring mining, sky whales, and a decent dose of combat. "The lack of visual quality and the numerous bugs result in a game that should be fun, but is so poorly delivered its just frustrating mess. At a fundamental level if you screw up in a Minecraft-style game you just restart, or start a new world, but in WindForge you are pushed forward by a storyline and you end up losing hours of your time due to an iffy auto save feature. The number of times Ive had to load up a save because something strange has happened, such as dying randomly while hooked to the edge of a building, or my airship exploding for no apparent reason, is ridiculous. WindForge is a game I wanted to love, but in its current state couldnt possibly recommend."

The problem with games receiving all that hype and attention is that it becomes nearly impossible to reach those lofty expectations and we end up with a disappointment and dreams of what could have been. Titanfall not only matches the expectations of the fans, but exceeds them and cements itself in place as the pinnacle of the FPS genre.
