    Don't have a clue what to do in Binding of Isaac, don't think I care enough to go back and find out.

    Should we care about you not caring? :confused:

    Binding of Isaac is up for PS4 and Vita.

    Had a quick go of Luftrausers... and now it'll be my new tube game. So addictive.

    Going to check out Steamworld now.

    Hadn't realised Luftrausers was made by the guys behind Hotline Miami. Had a quick go but looking forward to getting properly stuck into it. Steamworld looks like it'll be a nice game to plug away on the Vita. Escape Plan seems to be the type of game that'll get frustratingly addictive. Sometimes the touch controls felt a bit unresponsive but maybe I just need to get used to what I need to do in certain instances. I only had a quick go of Binding of Isaac but I was getting tired so not sure what to think but I'll reserve judgement. For some reason I had taught Frozen Synapse was a sort of stealth game and not a turn based game - not really my thing but I might come back to it. Didn't touch Hungry Horde at all.

    I actually didn't get time to play any of the other games after. Probably will on the way home today.

    It's not actually by the Hotline Miami devs, by the guys behind the fantastic Ridiculous Fishing and Super Crate Box :) Luftrausers is great fun though, lost a good two or three hours to it the first time I turned it on. Didn't feel the Vita controls did it justice though, much preferred the Dualshock 3 for it.

    Was never the biggest fan of Binding of Issac on PC, but played it for a while last night and it clicked in a way it hadn't before. Maybe it's because I found an amazing
    Monty Python-esque death foot

    I remember playing the free version of Luftrauser in the office at lunch, very fun game. Not sure if it is the same guys though http://www.freewebarcade.com/game/luftrauser/

    Apologies, the Devolver Digital logo made me think it was the same developers but it's just the same publisher.

    I couldn't care less what you do... :D

    SteamWorld Dig and Escape Plan are very enjoyable games. Haven't tried The Binding of Isaac yet.
    A much improved selection for PS4 for me anyway. I've been bitching about the quality of games so far, it was never about the AAA titles, I just wasn't interested in any of them.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,346 ✭✭✭van_beano


    Rainbow Moon is gonna keep me going for about 6 months!

    I'm not really "digging" steamworld dig so far it looks nice but so far all I seem to be doing is digging and upgrading does anything else happen?
    Hungry horde is a great little game!

    played it on the 3ds, isnt there challenge rooms that have a bit of difficulty and rewards/loot in them?

    I didn't play if for that long to be honest just my initial thoughts weren't good. I hope it gets better I'm sick of climbing up and down already:-)

    I found Steamworld relatively slow to start, but after an hour or two the pace at which you progress downwards (and upwards) really starts to liven up. Some of the upgrades really mix up the navigation in very interesting ways, and managing resources becomes a fun challenge during the middle game particularly. There's never quite enough water...

    Finished it a few months ago - nice little game. Just over too fast for my liking.

    I'd say Steamworld could probably have had one more 'layer' without ill-effect or perhaps even a positive one. However, I also appreciate its brevity - I played around 6-7 hours worth and felt I had explored the mine thoroughly and satisfyingly. Definitely didn't wear out its welcome, even during the final hour or so when I was mopping up the few remaining secrets and trinkets. The new ideas came steadily, and there wasn't any point when it felt like the developer was just spinning wheels for the sake of it. It's nice to have a game that can be fully explored without unnecessary padding, although an extra level or so wouldn't have been unwelcome either.

    It has a nicely paced progression to it from what I've played. It seems that every time I have earned enough dollars for what I want, something newer and shinier is unlocked at just the right time. It did seem a bit of a chore having to go all the way back up to the top every few minutes but you will unlock something to counter that too. Then there's the caves to discover, some have to be negotiated a certain way and the upgrade stations with new abilities and tools.
    It's not going to be for everybody but the more I play the better it gets.

    Downloaded steam and escape. Steam dig is by far my favourite of the two. Haven't got into it too far yet.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,897 ✭✭✭RoyalCelt


    Great to see poper games will stat coming soon. SOme great indies but I want full games. However unlike a lot of people I didn't expect to get them any sooner as all PS4 retail games were new and not in a position to be given away for free. In a years time I reckon we'll be getting quality games released this year and last.

    It's not on the PSN website in the IGC for this month and on PSN it still has a discounted price for me. :confused:
