I finished up Brothers. My god that was a beautiful game. It worked on every level from art, design, and narrative. Y'all need to play it. It's a short sojourn but I don't mind. I like my experiences short, sweet, and extremely memorable.
Speaking of brothers, I dived into another game with famous siblings, the legendary sons of Sparda: Dante and Vergil. At first, I was a bit put off by the so punk aesthetic but it grew on me. I think it's a better all-around package than its predecessors even if the combat lacks depth. It strikes a good compromise between accessibility and complexity. The art and environmental design is outstanding too. If only I had a PC that could run it at 60fps. Alas, I must be content with the "feel of 60fps."
I've decided that this week will be devoted entirely to video games. I'm gonna take a massive bite out of my backlog. Even though I already beat Infamous, I never finished my Good playthrough. I can't, in good conscience, delete the game without doing that first. Even though its on Easy, I'm getting my ass whooped. Whose idea was it to give assholes on rooftops with rifles and rocket launchers sniper precision? Demote that man. I'm reminded of why I like this game. It's not the best open-world game, but it's one of the best superhero games. Gotta get ready for Second Son, yo.
