Relic's latest title, Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine, is still two months away, but this week, THQ released a prologue story in the form of Warhammer 40,000: Kill Team. Developed by the recently disbanded THQ Digital Studios UK, Kill Team is a twin-stick shooter that lays some basic groundwork for the events of Space Marine."
Alex & Mike talk Biomutant, a game from Experiment 101/THQ Nordiq you likely have not heard of. While the AAA side of the industry tends to homogenization and imitative, cinematic presentation, “AA” games remain creative and innovative in 2021. Drawing on inspirations as varied as Dark Souls, third person shooters & kung fu cinema, Biomutant is Ratchet & Clank on acid, developed by a team of 20 people.
Remember THQ? They published such games as Avatar: The Last Airbender, Darksiders I & II, the Destroy All Humans series, Homefront, the Red Faction series, and Saint's Row 1-3. Almost as famous as their games were the THQ marketing stunts, including a Golden Wii.
PlaySation gamers are in for a treat today! Not only did Sony roll out its “Double Discount” PlayStation Store sale, but there’s also a THQ Humbe Bundle PS4 discount happening too!
This game deserved a much higher score than that trust me.
The review mentions a poor framerate which is RUBBISH!, I only encountered a very very brief drop once and it was in a cutscene, talking of cutscenes the review mentions not being able to skip them which I agree is a bad design choice but they aren't very long tbh and so don't affect things too badly.
The camera they said was poor too, being that it's out of the players control, I felt the camera was excellent for the most part, almost always pointed in the right direction and it nicely lets you know where to go next without announcing it too loudly with garish green arrows etc.
The coop isn't online sure but I hate online anyway and is no comparison with two friends on the same couch, lastly he mentions bugs and I didn't encounter one single bug and I've played the heck out of this game, so yeah overall considering this game is only 800msp I give it a 9 quite comfortably.
