Bastion Warner Bros. Interactive (Supergiant Games)2011 X360labelimageminimize
Bastion Warner Bros. Interactive (Supergiant Games)2011Una estética muy interesante, un narrador SOBERBIO y una jugabilidad que recuerda a un intermedio entre un 2D y un 3D del Legend of Zelda, aunque con un gran enfoque en tener un inventario muy limitado (2 armas y una habilidad) y saber aprovechar sus ventajas y compensar sus debilidades, cambiando completamente la forma de juego (desde ser completamente cuerpo a cuerpo hasta sólo poder atacar a distancia)

Tremendamente recomendable.

9.5 de 10

GRIKARUGUN  author2007A manic shooter done with the Zelda Classic engine. Five levels of bullet hell. 7 bosses to defeat. 8-directional movement and 8 buttons (and 9 actions). Each enemy and projectile has a color scheme, destroy sets to multiply scoring. Projectiles of the same color as the player's ship will do no damage. The player can also shoot themselves if they do it right. Linuxlabelimagesubject
Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast ?? Pandoralabelminimizeminimize
Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast  LucasArts (Raven Software)2002The game has an extra stage for the demo, that is kind of well made and replayable (outstanding in demo standards)***Este es uno de esos juegos que tratas de evaluar casi negativamente para intentar compensar el subidón de nostalgia.
Sin embargo, en este caso redescubrí que convertía este juego en GENIAL.

Un diseño de niveles que prima la rejugabilidad de sus pantallas, con diversas maneras de solventar muchas zonas y combates, y una gran variedad de entornos y de cambios de horizontalidad-verticalidad.
Un sistema triple de armamento (sable-armas-fuerza) muy equilibrado, obligándote a alternar entre ellos y no haciendo menos peligrosa a una patrulla armada que a un par de sith despistados.
Enfrentamientos de sable que pueden acabar rápido o alargarse según tu habilidad (especialmente notable en el enfrentamiento final, que puede hacerse larguísimo o solventarse con un sólo mandoblazo) Porque los sables CORTAN, no se sobrevive a mucho más de 1 o 2 golpes. Y el sistema de 3 tipos de combate (poderoso-equilibrado-rápido) es sencillo pero versátil.
Una historia entretenida, y un protagonista sin parangón (hasta su grito de muerte mola)

Y como copete, un multijugador impecable, con situaciones memorables como el arrastrar contigo a alguien al vacío con el estrangulamiento o que todo un equipo se te lance encima cuando llevas la bandera y descarguen una tormenta perfecta.

9 de 10***2009-09-16 on Steam, by LucasArts (lang: eng, fre, ger, ita, spa)***In the tradition of the multi-award-winning Star Wars Jedi Knight : Dark Forces II, rebel agent Kyle Katarn returns in exhilarating first-person action.

Several years have passed since Kyle avenged his father's death and saved the Valley of the Jedi from Jerec and his band of Dark Jedi. Allowing his Force powers to languish for fear of falling to the Dark side, Kyle set aside his lightsaber, vowing never to use it again. But when a new and menacing threat to the galaxy emerges, Kyle knows he must reclaim his past in order to save his future.

Star Wars Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast is being developed in partnership with Activision's critically acclaimed developer Raven Software. Players assume the role of Kyle as they employ a unique mix of weapons, Force powers and your lightsaber in both single- and multiplayer modes.

* Expanded and enhanced use of the lightsaber features a slew of attack and defense moves
* Tap into the powers of the Force including Jump, Push, Jedi Mind Tricks and more
* Employ combat or stealth, depending on the situation. When a fight is necessary, be at the ready with an arsenal of weapons: stun baton, Bryar blast pistol, blaster rifle to name but a few
* Explore breathtaking Star Wars locales--Cloud City, the Jedi Academy on Yavin 4, Nar Shaddaa, the smugglers' moon--plus some never-before-seen locations
* Multi-player options including, deathmatch, saber-only deathmatch, and team capture the flag
* Developed in conjunction with the critically acclaimed Raven Software using a modified Quake III Team Arena engine

Monster Party Bandai (Human)1989A sidescrolling action adventure 'parody horror' game. A young boy, Mark, returns from a ball game and meets a gargoyle alien named Bert. Bert chose Mark to help him out, so he took Mark to his own world and 'fused' with Mark's body.
Now, Mark, with the trusty power of his baseball bat (which can be used to hit projectiles, sending them back at the enemy) and the ability to turn into the flying laser-firing Bert for a short time from taking a special pill, must go through eight weird, colorful levels (the first level gets freaky halfway through, with happy faces turning into bloody skulls and creepy faces), and over 20 bosses ranging from just plain silly (like a potted plant that says 'Hello Baby', a bouncing piece of fried shrimp, and a giant kitten) to the really eldritch (a bunch of weird faces, the Grim Reaper, and the final eyeball boss).
What's even stranger about the game is its freaky and slightly disturbing (and a little gory) ending, and the fact that this Japanese game didn't come out in Japan.

Ōkami  Capcom (Clover Studio)2006[b]retelling[/b] — Tale of the Bamboo Cutter, Susanoo slaying Orochi, and likely others. There's also plenty of elements borrowed from other classic tales without explicitly retelling them, such as Issun-bōshi.***[spoiler=Show vague hints;Hide]Get to Agata forest - use Bloom on all the dark wrinkled trees with ribbons in the starting village and talk to Mr. Orange, you'll get Lily Pad brush power.
(more tips to follow; simpler tips omitted)

Black cherry trees : Bloom power
Green/white beam of light : dig
Pile of leaves : Galestorm power
Ice : Inferno power
Huge flags : Galestorm power
Guardian Statues : vases made by the woodcutter in Shinshu
Cat statues : Catwalk power[/spoiler]
Note: the game effectively pauses when drawing, and the only limit you have then is how large your ink pot (magic pool) is. Ink is restored quite fast when not drawing, so there's very little reason to upgrade it (unless some later puzzles require more). Of course, being brush heavy in the fighting will make you want to upgrade it. This is also works great for defending yourself when you otherwise feel like you can't (grow trees between the attackers and you, slash at the enemies or the stuff they throw at you, etc.)

Feeding animals gives 1-5 points of praise/adoration (xp) per animal, though single feeding affects the whole herd, flock, or whatever.***Other languages are only present on the game box and manual (in-game voices/text still in English), at least in European releases.

The Japanese title 大神 actually reads "great deity" rather than "wolf", but the pronunciation (and transliteration) is the same as with 狼 which stands for "wolf". So, in effect, it's a pun for "great wolf deity".***In Okami, the player takes the role of the mythical sun goddess Amaterasu, in the form of a wolf. Her task is to restore color (or 'life') to the world by destroying the monsters who have stolen it. Since Amaterasu is a deity, there are naturally people who worship her and people who don't. The more people who worship her (as a result of her restoring color and doing other good deeds for them), the more powerful she becomes.***In Ōkami, the legendary monster Orochi has come back to life and turned the world into a wasteland. To restore the earth's natural order and beauty, players assume the role of wolf-embodied sun god Amaterasu and participate in numerous action packed battles against the ominous beings they encounter. However, conquering these impending enemies is no small feat. Amaterasu will travel through different regions of the world to regain her 'Celestial Brush' powers, all the while revitalizing everything in her path. Using an innovative control scheme, gamers can slash away at enemies, use various brush strokes to solve puzzles, create pathways, chop down trees or turn night into day. The real-time fighting system not only involves assorted brush techniques, but also myriad of specials attacks typically not associated with the physical prowess of a normal wolf.

Featuring a visually stunning art style, Ōkami comes alive through beautiful scenic 3D levels that have the appearance and texture of paper scrolls brushed with watercolor-like calligraphy art. Throughout the vibrant and distinctive surroundings, players must also interact with a dynamic cast of characters, building their faith to uncover clues and hints. The blend of stylized graphics and unique gameplay will result in a rich and dynamic experience never seen before.***great art style

Star Wars: The Force Unleashed  LucasArts;Aspyr Media (LucasArts;Aspyr Studios)2009Un hack and slash con un cierto enfoque más variado y plataformero, ya que aunque los combos existen y tu personaje no es precisamente débil, no consiste en machacar botones hasta llegar a los 3 dígitos.
El uso del entorno y su destrucción es su fuerte, ya que generas cuantiosas pérdidas materiales allá por donde pasas a base de empujones y tirones.
Si que se me hace algo raro lo del sable como un objeto contundente más, y estaría bien que se pudiese cambiar de guardia.
