[Twinfinite] Running The Gauntlet: Being bad at games can be pretty rewarding

Ever played a level in a game that seems almost impossible to beat, one that you finally conquer after hours, days, or even weeks of attempts? I had a level like that: The Gauntlet, from Bit.Trip RUNNER. However, I was stuck on this one for eight months. After I finally beat it yesterday, I realized something.

For avid gamers like myself, those feelings don't come quite as often. Yet with games like Super Meat Boy, 'Splosion Man, Rayman Origins, and Dark Souls, I have been able to relive this feeling.

It is addicting, and it is awesome, especially when the game is fair, and it is obvious that all the failures are because of you. I can not sing the praises of games like Rayman Origins and Dark Souls enough, I love that feeling of achievement.

Review: Bit.Trip Rerunner is a great example of what a good remake looks like - Entertainium

With the inclusion of the original game and a set of new mechanics that slot in naturally, Bit.Trip Rerunner is a stellar example of a remake.

Rolling the Dice: Do Modern RPGs Miss the Point of Team-Based Play?

It seems it was long time ago. A bunch of friends spending hours on end playing RPG games, sitting around the table with the box of cold pizza. Excited about the story, listening to the Game Master, they were completely engaged in the worlds only visible to them and their imaginations.

The GM is the programmer, and in MMOs and co-ops, you can play with others. If you want to ONLY use your imagination for the visuals, read a book.

1) Hope they put it on disc this time.
2) Hope this is a positive for Neptune coming over as well.

Demons Souls5114d ago

If so, that's being developed & published by Idea Factory. Compile Heart has nothing to do with it (Thank God for that).

Godmars2905114d ago (Edited 5114d ago )

Thought Compile Heart was one of the companies lending characters.

Was also speaking in general as in regards to a US of Neptune. If these guys are offing a second game, NIS or Atlus, both of whom offer quirkier titles, will put that one out.

@kagon01:
My issue isn't - wholly - with the DL-only option, but the price. The first game should be $30. Maybe $40, and by that I mean $39.99. The only reason its $45 is the 360 disc version which has extras. Nevermind that by all rights its a PS2 game. Something that proabbly could have been done if the devs had the GOW2 engine or tools.

ClownBelt5114d ago

I approve of this god damn message.

Could have gotten my 60 bucks if they just put it on a disc.

Another exclusive damnn the ps3 keeps on rollin wit games awesome ;)

Jack-Pyro5114d ago

Is this a half decent SRPG, porn aside, cause if it is, i might just decide to go and buy it for the 360.

Anon73495114d ago

There's no porn just some sexual innuendos but that's it.

Also it is a great game by itself, maybe not graphically but everything else is top tier.

RedDevils5114d ago

so it had some kind of "top tier" porn story jk

ThanatosDMC5114d ago

Yup, it's a decent game. I just hate that a move has to go first before any attack options.
