Destroy All Humans!
Short and sweet. Unlike crypto, who’s short angry and not green.
The attention to detail is pretty incredible in some areas.
They fixed all the issues i had on launch other than a couple situations where frames tank. I hope they do them all and do them at least this well
! Even Big Willy.

I have loads of memories playing DaH as a kid on the PS2, this remaster keeps what made the original so fun whilst also modernising aspects that wouldn’t have held up today. Looking forward to DaH 2.

Garfield Kart
“I don’t think any word can explain a man’s life,” says one of the searchers through the warehouse of treasures left behind by Jonathan Arbuckle. Then we get the famous series of shots leading to the closeup of the word “Garfield” on a kart that has been tossed into a furnace, its paint curling in the flames. We remember that this was Arbuckle’s childhood kart, taken from him as he was torn from his family and sent east to boarding school.
Garfield is the emblem of the security, hope and innocence of childhood, which a man can spend his life seeking to regain. It is the green light at the end of Gatsby’s pier; the leopard atop Kilimanjaro, seeking nobody knows what; the bone tossed into the air in “2001.” It is that yearning after transience that adults learn to suppress. “Maybe Garfield was something he couldn’t get, or something he lost,” says Lyman, the reporter assigned to the puzzle of Arbuckle’s dying word. “Anyway, it wouldn’t have explained anything.” True, it explains nothing, but it is remarkably satisfactory as a demonstration that nothing can be explained. “Garfield Kart” likes playful paradoxes like that. Its surface is as much fun as any mascot kart racer ever made. Its depths surpass understanding. I have analyzed it a frame at a time with more than 30 groups, and together we have seen, I believe, pretty much everything that is there on the screen. The more clearly I can see its physical manifestation, the more I am stirred by its mystery.

When I was 18… 18 years old, I saw for the first time in my life… I saw an image of clarity. I saw a comic strip… a three panel comic strip that, though simple as it seemed, changed me… changed my being, changed who I am… Made me who I am…
Enlightened me…
The strip, Garfield, the comic strip was new… no more than maybe a month and a half since inception, since… since coming into existence… and there it was before me in print, I saw it… a comic strip… What was it called?

Lost Planet® 2
Resident evil 2 remake edit: One of the bosses and enemies had reused sound effects from the monsters in lost planet 2. Not sure if that means anything concerning Lost Planet’s continued decay but at least they know this game/franchise is still here.
Despite the protest, a LP2 (lost planet 2) using the steam doo-hickey system rather than GFWL (Games For Windows Live) will most likely not happen, but dont let that discourage you from buying the game. You see comments talking about how GFWL prevents the game from launching or doesnt work period.

Lost planet 2 is something of an old gem. It was my first online game ever and the adoration I have for it is deep. Perhaps this adoration even blinds me to its issues, my mind telling me that’s just how the game is. For now though I will attempt (read, attempt) to place that adoration aside to give this game a fair review. So…
To start out this game can be a pain to get running. It has Games For Windows Live, and for those of you who don’t know Games For Windows Live is an old, deprecated, cripplingly poor attempt to create an online infrastructure similar to something you might find on a console. It registers your game’s online keys, allows for the creation and retrieval of online profiles, loadouts, and achievements. It lets you play the damn game with friends and invite them. Without GFWL, this game virtually does not exist. But GFWL is a shambling corpse of what it was. NOW, that’s not to say you can’t get that corpse up and running. Check out the guides section and find one of the GFWL setup guides which led to a friend getting done in minutes what took me hours to stumble through. Also, keep in mind this game really doesn’t play well on some setups if not installed to the default install directory, usually on the C drive. And if you crash after missions, switch to the other directx version in the launcher.

Beyond Good and Evil™
About The Game
Beyond Good & Evil, published by Ubisoft in 2003. Where do I start with this game? First off, I want to say that this is a good PC port. It’s not perfect, but it gets the job done. I will explain why later. What’s the premise to this game? You play as Jade, a reporter who lives with her pig-uncle Pey’j, taking care of orphans on your lighthouse reservation. In this planet called Hillys, Hillyans fight for survival as evil DomZ, alien-like creatures, take over the planet. A combat force called the Alpha Sections has been sent to fight back the DomZ, but when the Alpha Sections fail to show up during attacks, a suspicious Jade goes undercover for a resistance force called IRIS to see what the Alpha Sections are really up to. Camera in hand, you participate in various undercover missions to expose the Alpha Sections for who they really are.

Beyond good and evil - это классическое игровое приключение, сделанное с душой, во времена когда у юбисофта еще была душа… Я играл в beyond good and evil в 2021 году впервые, и ей все равно удалось очаровать меня до глубины души. Хотя, как и со всеми старыми играми, над ней пришлось поколдовать, прежде чем запустить ее в нормальном разрешении и фпсе, все же по сравнению с многими играми это было довольно легко. (не слушайте тех, кто что-то пишет про порты и подобные глупости, это вам не инсёрдженси)

Serious Sam HD: The Second Encounter
I have to admit that I like the NON-HD version more than HD one, BUT it has it’s own perks, so both of them good in their way. Some things are exactly alike comparing with non-HD version - gameplay, ost. Some things are different. Anyway - 2nd Encounter HD is better than the 1st SS HD. You wonder why there are not so many reviews? HD version is kind buggy - sometimes achievements work - sometimes they don’t. Sometimes your overall game time works - sometimes don’t. Sometimes even your cloud saves are broken, or your stats shows that your best advanced level is the 2nd while you nearly completed the game. Yeh bugs are the weak sid of the HD rework.

Short version: 79%
Just like the remake of the first game, Second Encounter HD updates the graphics of the old Serious Sam expansion disk, while retaining the fast-paced combat and the great new weapons of the original. Sadly it still can’t make the starting levels any more fun, but the later ones really make up for the slow start.
Long version:
When the remake of Serious Sam: The First Encounter was released, it wasn’t surprising that a similar facelift on the Second Encounter followed.

Another World – 20th Anniversary Edition
Click here for the full review (Steam’s character limit doesn’t allow me to post the full thing here), and if you’ve played the game, please check out my Another World survey !
In 1991 I first played Another World (also known as Outer World and Out of This World in some regions), a game that would have a greater and more lasting impact on me than any other.

Jordan Mechner, Steve Meretzky, Roberta Williams…Eric Chahi.
If you don’t know who Eric Chahi is, or why I breathe his name with a palpable aura of reverence, buy this game immediately. This is an enduring piece of computer game history that remains as beautiful, stark, striking and unique today as it was when it burst onto the scene in 1991. This is a landmark computer game.
So what, you say? So was Doom, and very few of us are still playing it today. So was DONKEY.BAS, the famous early IBM game with the racecar switching lanes to avoid burros in the road. So was the Crowther and Woods Adventure. The history of computer games is littered with significant milestones, making for a very cluttered highway to the past. Right. I understand. But when you find one that’s still fresh and avant-garde exactly as it is, today? You could drop Another World into the indie game market anew, and it’d still turn heads and inspire conversations. The adjective “timeless” is overused, but this game is truly timeless.
