"Onechanbara Z2: Chaos is an average game. There's a very delicate space that every game has to find, where its gameplay segments are long enough without feeling too long. It's why a basketball game is 60 minutes, or a fight is usually a max of three rounds, or why racing games have a general number of laps that feels right for that particular game." -GR
VGChartz's Patrick Day-Childs: "2020 is upon us! The past decade has had some downs, like the influx of monetisation within full games, Blizzard's community backlash and EA winning the worst company in America award twice, but also some ups, like the leaps in understanding gaming from more mainstream companies to wholesome news like gamers helping preserve a controller signed by someone’s deceased mum.
The decade has also been the highlight of some… bizarre news, and I decided collect together some of the more obscure and quirky stories to make you giggle or question what the hell happened this decade."
"Level with me, readers. We’ve played games. We’ve played a lot of games. If you’re visiting Rice Digital, chances are you play a lot of Japanese games with creative character designs. But, have you ever felt that, you know, maybe, some outfits can barely be described as outfits? Join us as we look through some barely-there clothes."
Definitely some fine outfits there. I think the fashion thought up by some videogame developers has a lot more fashion sense to it than half the crap that big designers put out on runways and their retail lines.
From trolls to ladies in skimpy outfits - these are the 10 PlayStation 4 experiences that Screen Critics highly advises gamers ignore.
I can agree with most of those, but The Order 1886? That's low man. It was an awesome game with the only downside being that it was a bit liniear and to short for most people. That game definately don't belong on that list of yours.
I knew already this game was going to be here, the whole list it's just an excuse to make believe once again that a good game like the order:1886 is mediocre.
Was it a corridor shooter? Yes, was it short? Yes, was it a good game for what it was and what it wanted to achieve? A resounding YES. It wasn't going to earn game of the year awards but it's far from one of the worst games on the system.
Ah, the old argument Order 1886 was a good game. It looked pretty, but played mediocre, was too short and too expensive for all that was offered. Maybe not one of the worse games out there, but I can see why it would make lists like this.
Just like Gears of War on the xbox: pretty, linear, short, shooter with cover mechanics, yet Gears has been getting a pass for doing the exact same thing for over 10 years now. Go figure.
They should have made 2 lists. One for Indies and one for AAA retail games. Most of the games on this list are Indies. They could have easily listed another 10 Indie games for being the worst.
The only game missing on this list is No Man's Sky. Fanboys will avoid this thread like the plague so it never gets high on N4G new list. Let's see if screencritics.net makes one for the XB1 and Wii U.
Ok that list is just dumb. I can actually say that Onechanbara Z2: Chaos. was better than you think. Got it from gamefly and best way to describe it is, many enemies like dynasty warriors, with cool combos kinda like devil may cry.
I enjoyed it also. Not the best game in the world but it was pretty entertaining. The strawberry banana surprise was hilarious to me as well.
Putting Onechanbara in this list just means the writer is totally missing the point of the game. It was never meant to be a good game. It's an absurd, over the top musou/action game which isn't about good visuals or super solid and innovative gameplay. It's a fun game about chicks in bikini's with chainsaws cutting up zombies and demons.
And also The Order 1886... shouldn't be on this list imo.
Flappy Goat from Goat Simulator should be on this list though
I'm not entirely sure it's a good idea to have a strong advertising tool of a trailer be linked with the games as they appear on the list. Trailers are designed to make games look good--very good. Wouldn't it be better to record some gameplay of the issues you have and post that? It would at least show you not only played the game for yourself but also show you're just not lazily making up a list based on what would be most controversial? I mean I browsed metacritic and found PS4 games well worse than any of the ones here, and that took me 2 minutes. But I guess it's easier to get attention when you list games people know instead of games like Ace Banana or Afro Samurai 2.
Yeah I don't expect GotY material here, but the target audience will enjoy it.
From the way it looks and plays, it should have been a PS3 game.
