5/5 Aside from the occasional bugs, I had no problems with this Definitive Edition. The new classic lighting update is great (and looks great). A good thing about this edition is that the shooting mechanics are better than in the original, and you can change the controls, though I played with the classic control scheme.Continue reading “Grand Theft Auto: Vice City — The Definitive Edition (2021)”

Last night I discovered an amazing Devil May Cry essay written by AlexxShadenk, titled “I think a big part of why I like DMC 5 better than 4/4SE is because of how the characters are better balanced in the latest game”. The essay starts with the quote seen in the title and then Alexx proceedsContinue reading “A Great DMC Essay”

5/5 Playing DMC5 with Vergil makes the game much better. No longer forced to play with V, you can relax and enjoy the full game with an awesome character that plays perfectly. This was the first time I’ve ever played with Vergil in any DMC, and I loved it. Vergil’s moves are impressive and lookContinue reading “Devil May Cry 5: Vergil DLC (2020)”

5/5 If you are a fan of Jet Li movies, you have to play Rise to Honor. This game plays marvelously and is as close as you can get to an interactive Jet Li movie. The plot is your typical martial arts movie plot, which unfortunately I don’t remember much, since I played this gameContinue reading “Jet Li: Rise to Honor (2004)”

5/5 I think I played Okami for the first time in 2010. I had heard about it since its release, but I had just never found it on sale in my small town. I had also read for years people on the Phantom Babies forum saying the game was a masterpiece, so I had beenContinue reading “Okami (2006)”

5/5 I missed Bayonetta back in 2009 because I didn’t like how the main character looked. Videogames are mostly visual artforms, and if you don’t like what you see in front of you, you probably won’t like interacting with it either. The game was directed by Hideki Kamiya, though, so it remained always in theContinue reading “Bayonetta (2009)”

4/5 I finally played DMC5 last year. It was fun, but I was expecting a better game. It was cool to play as Nero and Dante, but V was an awful character to play with. Playing with V was just a mindless mashing of buttons while trying to keep some distance from the enemies, itContinue reading “Devil May Cry 5 (2019)”
