The game really brings out the feels when you hang out with your childhood friend. I actually do think that it's the sort of game that Yahtzee would like.

To be fair, there is another common thread between the two Prey games: a new tech-demo game mechanic. In the previous Prey it was the size-changing portals; in this one it's the Looking Glass monitors. Granted the prior one is more interactive than the new one, but it did get used to great...

Planescape and The Dig were both great games, although it's true that the first is mostly a novel (Yahtzee, you're a book author, you shouldn't be dissing novels) and the latter suffered from a bit of Moon Logic Puzzle Syndrome (although that's not entirely inappropriate, given that most of the...

There's a core Persona fanbase that enjoys mapping out the schedules and min-maxing the crap out of them to make 100% guides for everyone else. They did (kinda) have a beach volleyball episode. And a shirtless day. Both featuring Liam.

I've put 70 hours into ME:A so far. Still haven't finished the main story (although I'm starting to get close). There's been the occasional bug and frequent graphics glitch and wonky animation, but you go into an Bioware game expecting those. I've greatly enjoyed my time so far in the game --...

Y'know, I don't think apologising for being an unapologetic racist is something that you can do. (And yes, I know that was the joke.)

Fivedaysa Stranger? I see what you did there.

It's possible to go the entire (previous) game without shooting anyone -- in fact there's an achievement for doing so. Though some of the levels (looking at you, Ship) make it harder than others. And of course not shooting people doesn't mean you're not killing them -- there are several times...

Yeah, most of the time the combat is fairly straightforward, and it's a lot better than in the previous game. Never had any trouble in the open world; the only time I struggled a bit was when they lock you in a small room with three of the elite enemies. (Had to resort to abusing the AI in...

In a way, it's actually been attempted. Scientists put their heads together and declared that the Brontosaurus no longer exists... so that's sort of like headbutting them to death, except more genocidal. Although later other scientists came along and declared that actually it does exist, so...

Well, at least part of the wait is over [https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/idgi/consortium-the-tower]...

FWIW, Undertale is a game that I greatly enjoyed watching someone else play (especially when they show off all the routes and many of the easter eggs). It's particularly good when watching someone decent at bullet hell games, or at least good at editing out repeated failure. And I don't...

Yep, was just about to post the same thing.

There isn't a "good" or "evil" side in that quest, really -- just a choice between two kinda-****ed-up things. One of the recurring themes in the Witcher series is that decisions are rarely clear-cut between good and evil, they're just choices with different bad consequences, and you have...

I don't know, I see "Spunk Notwithstanding" as more of a band name than a movie title.
