Where chads were born

someone at level-5 keeps trying to make "small-scale layton with individual mysteries" happen and it's not going to happen. half the fun of a layton game is watching the plot get gradually more and more absurd as it goes on before you get to the end and everything is wrapped up in a ridiculous plot twist, and that's entirely missing here. also way too many puzzles are just "haha there's a trick answer =)".

most disappointing game of 2017 for me

The only videogame to make me cry (unless you count when the girls on my bus made fun of me for playing the DS Bakugan game)

This game was previously a 4/5 for me and I looked forward to playing it everyday. But then the New York Times got their grubby little mitts on it. And you know what they fucking did? They got rid of swear words. Yep. Thats right. Now my daily tradition of using whore first and always has been shattered. What's even the point of playing anymore? This is everything thats wrong with capitalism. Big company buy little nice wholesome thing and ruin it and litter it with data trackers to spy on you and advertise you more of Gwenyth Paltrows goop. This is why I am now an anti-economist and will no longer be participating in the world with currency. The New York Times will NOT censor me. LADIES, NEVER FORGET WHAT THEY TOOK FROM YOU

pretty fun until you realize you have to clean it up when you're done

The sign is a subtle joke. The shop is called "Sneed's Feed & Seed", where feed and seed both end in the sound "-eed", thus rhyming with the name of the owner, Sneed. The sign says that the shop was "Formerly Chuck's", implying that the two words beginning with "F" and "S" would have ended with "-uck", rhyming with "Chuck". So, when Chuck owned the shop, it would have been called "Chuck's Fuck and Suck".

Tony Hawk's Pro Skater, but for intellectuals

Without a doubt, the worst gaming experience of my entire life.

This game is completely broken. You clip through solid objects, inputs don't register, you randomly come to a dead stop, guards can shoot or punch you from anywhere, your own attacks flat out don't work, and it all culminates in what I think might be one of the worst videogames ever made.

The story is unremarkable. It's fine, I guess, but does little to immerse you in it's dystopian world. The graphics are quite nice, thanks primarily to the very basic artstyle that doesn't rely on realism.

That's about where my praises end. Just watch gameplay online, don't force yourself to suffer through this interactive torture machine the way I did.

Knack

2013

Knack was so epic that I had to play other games instead because it was just that epic.
