From independent Russian developer Biart, comes Deep Black: Reloaded. Deep Black: Reloaded is a third person shooter and a port of a console release that hasn’t come out yet. The story revolves around the main protagonist Pierce. The first thing you notice is how much Pierce looks like Isaac from Dead Space, not comparing the games, but they just look similar. Pierce spent his life as an amphibious mercenary and has since retired, but in typical movie-like fashion, he’s been called back for one more action-filled and sadly frustrating mission. The story takes place a few decades from now in a world where an alliance of nations has come together to more effectively wage war with another alliance of nations, and as tensions rise, it seems an event of gigantic proportions will take place, and the world is under threat from a very powerful weapon. Your mission is to stop this happening and to save the world…of course it is.
Enough of talking about the best games of 2012, now lets disperse with the bile. Which games outright disappointed our staff members at This Is My Joystick in 2012?
Its time for the guys to explain for themselves…
I dunno how could one be dissapointed in 007 legends ... the last good 007 game was goldeneye on n64 .... the rest ranged from mediocre to garbage and all coming from activision
And Max Payne 3 was too hard ? really , especially with the aim assists on easy and normal modes and the built in mechanics to regain health during slowmo ? I felt quite the opposite , and was surprised the game wasnt more challenging on hardest settings .

It seems to be the case that every other game is a shooter these days, and so it’s not surprising that every possible setting and premise has been exhausted. Almost. Going underwater is mostly uncharted territory for the genre, making Deep Black: Reloaded a pioneer in adventuring through the murky, unexplored depths.
Will it sink or swim?
