Brash Games writes"It happens every year; despite great reviews and solid word of mouth, there is always a small selection of utterly fantastic games that, for whatever reason, completely fail at retail. Be it a poorly chosen release window, an overtly high price point or a lack of advertising, these brilliant, often hugely innovative games criminally fall by the wayside".
A classic action game makes its triumphant return on the Nintendo Switch
El Shaddai: Ascension of the Metatron is an action game by Ignition Tokyo and UTV Ignition Games for PS3 and Xbox 360, later released on Switch.
VGChartz's Evan Norris: "Presenting El Shaddai: Ascension of the Metatron to a new audience and preserving it for future generations is a great thing, especially considering its cult status. Whether that audience will enjoy it is another matter entirely. Due to its cryptic storytelling, repetitive combat, and clumsy platforming, it doesn't quite escape the orbit of mediocrity. Still, there's a lot to admire, including exciting boss battles, impressive production design, and powerful music. If nothing else, it's an ambitious game with a singular vision. And that's something to celebrate."
Its a pretty cool game. i have the 360 version but Id buy the switch to play on the go.
Rayman Origins is actually really good, I just wish it was a little more zoomed in is all.
Not sure about Crisis 2, but overall list is great.. All those games are awesome!
Rayman Origins deserved better but for the rest of the list I don't agree. Didn't like any of those games (and yes, I actually played them all).
1. Alan Wake
2. Rare Studios
I'm all for interesting and unique games, but El Shaddai was a very shallow experience. Behind the beautiful visuals was a dull combat system and a weak story. It didn't deserve better, it should have been a better game.
