SG - Anarchy Reigns is an online 3rd person multiplayer beat’em-up. I watched the four player battle playing before my turn. The melee carnage on display looks attractive. I did not know much about the game before seeing it at the Eurogamer Expo, but having already had the unexpected pleasure of discovering Binary Domain, my hopes were raised. I even remarked, “Seems strange that no one has really attempted a multiplayer beat’em-up in this console generation.” The Developers, Platinum Games, made two of my favourite games of last year in Bayonetta and Vanquish.
A recent wave of modern brawlers have exploded onto the scene, and it feels like they owe Anarchy Reigns some gratitude.
Jerry from BagoGames says, "With Astral Chain coming out right around the corner for the Nintendo Switch, I couldn’t help but think about all the amazing games PlatinumGames has pumped out over the years. Some revered greatly, others panned by critics, but to me insane infatuation. These are my five favorite games from my favorite developer"
After Xbox's announcement that there won't be any more backwards compatible games until the release of Project Scarlett, here's a reflection of what could, or perhaps should have been.
Not only would it have been great if Max Payne, Freedom Fighters, Nier, Blur and Lollipop Chainsaw got to become backwards compatible, it also would be great if those games got to have more games come out in their franchises.
Its not as backwards compatibity is dead its just been put on hold so all backwards compatibity game work on next xbox then when its released they will start up again, P.S I did finish Avatar: The Last Airbender – The Burning Earth
Might get the chance when Scarlett comes out. I mean for all games Xbox 360 and Original Xbox. I can dream it happening.
