Originally revealed back in 2010 and eventually launched late last year, the percentage of Lucius’ incubation period spent in the public eye is unusual to say the least, especially for a PC exclusive title. However, such openness did grant Lucius the opportunity to build an eagerly awaiting audience in the way that so few PC releases do without a multi-million pound advertising campaign to support them. Lucius was the antithesis to the argument that the mid-tier videogame is dying then, and in play it only goes to further strengthen the ideal that it’s not all about big budgets and bedroom coders: there is room for innovation without either fact sheet worthy appeal.
A criticism of Lucius. Exploring the failures of its design and its genre as a whole.
Another day, another bundle full of games going for a very low price point. At only £3.59 for 12 titles, it’s hard to ignore such an offer. The games on offer cover a large amount of genres, hitting strategy, adventure, shooter and racing games, among others. It should also be noted that these game are not exactly indie titles, several coming from large established studios such as Paradox. But is the pack worth it?
Justin from TMSGamer talks about some of the worst games he's played in this generation of gaming.
Did we not already have a previous article/blog with the same topic a few days ago?
I could be wrong though.
Two of the worst have come out this year. Ride to Hell and Garry's Incident. Add Mindjack to that list.
And i'll say it again. Not enough gamers know what a bad game is. That is why we get people picking holes in the best ones for the tiniest faults. They have no context. No marker. Playing games as bad as Ride to Hell didn't lower my expectations for good games, it just made me appreciate them so much more.
The War Z is the worst on this list, and frankly, it is still far better than the three I just mentioned. All three of them are almost bad enough to score 0/10. They are broken, unplayable messes with no production value and no game design present at all.
