Yesterday Destructoid reviewed Deadly Premonition and gave it a score of 10. This comes just weeks after Destructoid reviewed Heavy Rain and gave it a score of 7. Obviously, this means one thing. We, at Destructoid, love the Xbox 360 and want to have sex with it. This conclusion can be drawn thanks to logic, which is a thing the Internet uses to make decisions based on ideas a thirteen-year-old had.
Some people (idiots) believe that I hate Heavy Rain because it is new and unique. The truth of the matter is that these people are gullible f***wits who believe that Heavy Rain is unique just because Sony told them that's what it was. People who can think for themselves and actually possess some intellectual standards have realized that the game is not really new at all.
Plenty of games have made a name for themselves as being proud of the fact they’re not to everyone’s taste over the years.
I mean I can do without nintendo games if given the choice. They are not nearly as mature rated as the average.
Yeah but I use my Switch OLED primarily for anime booba style games (visual novels and JRPG's) and ultra violent FPS's. Far from kid friendly, lol
The problem with that line of though is that games have never been as much "for everyone" as in 2025.
The only thing that's not for everyone in gaming lately is the gatekeeping. Devs will try to appeal to as many people as they can, but if you dare have your own tastes and prefer something a bit more obscure, then you have "L takes" because at the moment, popular opinion equals right opinion.
So devs should simply own the fact they water down their games and go Hollywood to please everybody. Then indies will go back to being trendsetters that are different from AAAs, instead of being roguelike and gacha copycats.
Okay, but "games I'm not meant to love" means I won't play them.
Games are for fun. They're their own art, it's a disservice to reduce them to interactive stories. You can focus on making your audience entertained on a positive way and still stand out.
No game is for everyone. Some games are more mainstream or casual friendly but there is always someone who won’t like it. Same with anything else
TNS: "This is a list of five terrifying games that have all been inspired by the Silent Hill franchise in one way or another."
Deadly Premonition is a weird, weird cocktail that doesn't go down smooth for everyone, but it's still absolutely worth sampling.
It’s sooooo janky but the story is so good and the agent is so quirky I loved it thouroughly, the story is that good that you can actually make it through all of its jankiness and issues .
It’s a diamond in the rough and rough is saying lighly.
This game deserves a remake out of any game I can think of .
If they fixed the combat ,driving and movement this would be one of my favorite games all time and it already is in a way.
The first time I turned on my flashlight was one of the funniest things I have ever seen in a game. His suit just sort of lights up. There's no physical flashlight in his hand--hilarious. It's also the only game I've played to truly capture the delightfull quirkiness of Twin Peaks. I'm with you on how much I like this game. Despite all of its flaws, it's a genuinely fun experience. "My coffee warned me about it," is probably my favorite line of all time in any video game.
I still haven't played the sequel, but I will some day.
I enjoyed this back during ps3 days. I'd buy it again if they re released it fixed up a little. I had fun with it.
LMAO destructoid needs to just stop. Article is sad, boo hoo you got hate mail expect it when you tic off one fan base over and over.
They need only more and more web site viewing.
Please, do not approve this article, it's poor information.
These guys are going crazy. they think deadly premonition that is getting 3/10 reviews is better then heavy rain which is at 9/10 rofl
EDIT: the site owner must be Bungie. Edit: They really gave it a 10/10 never trusting reviews from this website again even if they are being sarcastic.
