Deadly Premonition 2: A Blessing in Disguise gets a trailer to welcome players to the very weird town of Le Carre, Louisiana.
Daily Video Game writes: "There are several action-adventure, fighting, RPG, racing, shooter, and sports games going on sale at Amazon right now, with many of them getting big price cuts for PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch! The savings may vary from title to title, but you will be able to save up to 90% off!"
A headline like that basically reads "Amazon slashes up to 90% off everything."
Not enough genres covered.
I hope Deadly Premonition 2 comes to PS, basically Twin Peaks The Game.
This week on COG Considers, we tackle one of the most tired and unpleasant tropes in horror games: why games--and every other pop culture avenue--are so determined to paint people with Dissociative Identity Disorder as murderers.
Killer7 was mentioned, but only for one sentence because it's the central premise of the game. There wasn't really a need to go into detail.
Are they? You are fixed on Japanese games that are anime based/fashioned. Perhaps if you were not playing games that are similar to the animes that inspired them you would have more/different experiences.
When Cliche and Troupes are the building blocks, you can’t expect much. Just like you cannot expect good case study when the tester/observer has practically no variance in test subjects.
Sooooo many horror games out there... you really gotta explore some more.
I am aware! But games like Outlast or Remothered aren't really doing anything different, either--the most you could say is that Outlast hammers in that not all mental patients are dangerous. Just some of them. It really isn't just anime-inspired games that are doing this, even if you're counting Deadly Premonition among them. Bendy and the Ink Machine did it with Alice Angel, Krieg from the Borderlands games is this but played for laughs, and Dog/God from Fallout: New Vegas' Dead Money DLC is another example of both murder and weird, unrealistically rapid closure. This article was inspired after seeing one too many indie games on Steam with the premise 'discover the inner world of this tormented killer with DID.' Trust me when I say I'm exploring all kinds of horror games, and even outside those boundaries, because this is a really wide-reaching pattern.
That said, if you have any recs for more interesting/less stereotypical usage of characters with DID, hit me up.
This month’s EDGE review scores include Paper Mario: The Origami King, Deadly Premonition 2, and more.
Paper Mario: The Origami King – 8
Really Edge? I've seen you call better games out for the smallest things
Totally, Ghost of Tsushima got a 6/10, and with this I'm not saying GoT is a perfect game, but compared to THIS Paper Mario, it definitely doesn't deserve to have 2 points less.
Nintendo games unfortunately are judged on a different scale.
Literally...
It's a bad Paper Mario game where Nintendo hasn't learnt AGAIN
Sticker Star, Colour Splash, and this...
Yet "Ah it's okay here's an 8...you little cuties"
Or maybe, and this is just a wild thought, they actually liked the game? Just because you don’t like it doesn’t mean that everyone else shouldn’t or can’t like it, too.
Question_mark
People don’t realise that a review is just somebody’s subjective opinion! They need their 9s and 10s to justify their purchase instead of just making their own minds up!
Or maybe it is actually a good game? Let not pretend like Paper Mario got only 50% or 60% on Metacritic.
Edge is one of the very few reviers that I trust, they don't give away high scores cause why not. They are strict with their grades and hence why I trust them.
