Nidhogg 2 might look strange, but it plays like a dream

Stabbing and stomping the night away Nidhogg 2makes a funny first impression. The game’s new look is a bit brutish compared the sleek minimalism of its predecessor, and the expanded arsenal — which includes a dagger, bow, and broadsword — steers away from the elegance of rapier duels. Compared to the original’s simplicity,Nidhogg 2seems like sensory overload. I know I’m not the only one to balk at it, either. While checking the game out at PAX East 2017, I overheard a conventiongoer remark that the gangly-armed characters made it seem like a “weirdNidhoggclone....

Okami allegedly just scored yet another Guinness World Record

This one’s for the animals In case you didn’t know,Okamialready has a Guinness World Record. Strangely it boasts the “least commercially successful winner of a Game of the Year award,” which it won in 2006 after selling “just” 600,000 copies, a qualifier that Guinness refers to as “dismal”on their official website. It’s a sort of back-handed award in that it highlightsOkami‘s multiple GOTY wins. Now 12 years later it’s poised to net yet another more flattering award in 2018....

They can’t think of anything wild and zany to do with that wacky Wii U GamePad, and apparently, they don’t think their games would be fun enough to entice consumers without said wild and zany features. Doesn’t show a lot of confidence, does it? Thankfully, Capcom seems less confused as to what to do with the thing....
