D+PAD Writes:
There’s an overused stereotype that paints the videogamer as a recluse, hunched on the sofa with the curtains drawn, dead eyes fixed on the glow of the television screen, the only sign of life being the insect-twitch of thumbs on joypad. As a committed gamer, this is something I would ordinarily contest wholeheartedly, but in considering Right Square Bracket Left Square Bracket’s (or ][) mind-melting Dyad there’s a very strong chance that that was me. Though the sun was shining outside, there I was sitting motionless on the sofa, curtains drawn, eyes barely blinking with my mind in very real danger of being sucked into the TV before exploding into a grisly fountain of neon-tinged psychedelia. Dyad, you see, wants to mess with your mind and there’s every chance that you’ll be more than willing to let it.
Hardcore Gamer - This week’s Steam sale has gone live and it’s one of the best ones offered up in quite a while.

Hi everyone! We’ve got a serious Flash Sale for you over the next couple days, with more than 20 games available for just $0.99 each. The Flash Sale starts right now, so head over to PlayStation Store and snap up some awesome games to play this summer.
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.
