1) Legend of Zelda Twilight Princess HD (Wii U). I really enjoyed myself with this one. I think years of Copyrina of Time propaganda crushed any opinion I had of the game and I went in expecting zero and got a really fun game. There's cuteness and cheekiness throughout the game. I must admit I slightly missed the Wii's motion controls but the game has been scrubbed up to a really nice level - makes me have high hopes for Breath of the wild. A particular credit to the dungeons, bosses and world. The difficulty is generally low but the variety and weirdness of the environments really goes a long way to make this game feel cool. Towards the end the game seems to go into killroom territory and it feels a bit shit and the final boss has some good moments and some reaaaaaly janky moments (particularly the horse fighting).
Worth a bash if you fancy something to bridge before Breath comes out. 4/6
2) Human Resource Machine. I think a lot of people in this forum will really dig this - it's a puzzle game in the spacechem programming mould but this time more literally aping a computer system - programming functions based on criteria set by an officious dick head boss. Like Tomorrow Corp's last game (little inferno) the story has a satirical edge to it but it would be kind of a waste on a shit game, which this is certainly not. Each puzzle can be beaten and also attempted for speed and efficiency.  5/6

It is fucking stupid a) how often it is possible to fall off that fucking horse b) how useless Zelda is with a bow and c) how ganon doesn't win after a) and b)

They are addictive!! Gutted about the save, I'd of found it hard to start again, though it's a very good game.

While there's no new content for Destiny, happy to put hours into this (and other stuff).

Started Arkham late last year. Something I need to finish. Had a feeling of trying to work too many extra mechanics in for the sake of it. The THPS4 of the superhero genre.

It is very over complicated, with a number of the mechanics allocated to different buttons from the norm making it difficult to slide back in.

51 tracks in a year.

I know it's my thread so I'm naturally gonna say it but still, this actually has helped me with the want to finish some games.

I have entered this realm.

Got through 5 in the first month and 2 more still on the go.

Running out of small games though so there's no way I'm keeping this pace up.

Same here. Got GoW3 for free as part of the Spring Festival psn stuff, and have Yakuza 4 and 0 to do as well. Gonna take a while, I expect.

I think it's helping me too, actually finishing some stuff feels nice. Although I'm also avoiding some stuff with no 'end' as well.

Some stuff with 'no end' type feels like MGSV, if you're done and you've put significant time in get it added and leave it. MGSV was that game for me.

Pfft, where's your spine, man?

Updated with Life is Strange.

Good write up! Updated mine with Resi too.

Thanks man, just read your thoughts on Resi, I really want to jump down that particular rabbit hole at some point, it sounds and from what I've seen looks great, lot of attention to detail in regards atmosphere.

Updated with Day Of The Tentacle Remastered. Haven't played it before so some of those puzzles were a bit... Obtuse. Fun though.
