Was thinking about Lost Planet 2 the other day by Capcom and how much I enjoyed it. I didn’t get the chance to play it co-op or multiplayer but Lost Planet 1’s multiplayer was fun, especially the mode where you can be an alien and fight snow pirates. I think the west just wanted another Gears Of War clone, and even though 2 took a lot of inspiration from Gears (it even featured it’s hero as an unlockable character) wasn’t enough and critics and players panned the game. It’s hard today to find anyone even playing it anymore and it seems to be dead. Shame.

Even I critically pan it, it’s shit, don’t play it. Yet I keep coming back to it every few years because I have a brain disease that makes me obsessed with over-complicated spellcasting systems
I played the new and ever-living fuck out of No Man’s Sky, starting on release day and continuing all the way through until after they made it a video game. It was pretty, it was atmospheric, it was super chill and I was listening to a podcast for most of it anyway.
I will always maintain that Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts was a good game, and would have been received much better if it just wasn’t marketed as a Banjo-Kazooie game. Nuts & Bolts walked so Tears of the Kingdom could run.
This is me with some of the older Dead or Alive games. It’s basically a dumbed-down Tekken with some genuinely amazing arenas. I don’t play it for the boobies. If that were my reasoning I’d be playing more Soul Calibur or even pick up Rumble Roses.
I love DOA on the dreamcast. It’s pretty deep tho with the counters and juggle strings.
I don’t know if it was critically panned, but people complained about Bioshock 2 when I thought it was a great follow up to the original.
