Zombie Viking review.

http://invertedaccess.com/2015/09/17/zombie-vikings-review/

It could be a fun beat em up in a couple months time. Right now the online is a disaster. Offline is ok but not great. But beat em ups aren't really meant to be played single player. It does have local coop for those that have others around them to play with.
I can't decide if I am going to put my view on it in the comments or not since I think it reads like a lower score (like I would have given it).

Too bad about all those bugs. Local multi would work for us, but if there's bugs even that way... well, more reason to wait for a flash sale. Maybe it will be fixed by then.

I finally downloaded the Plus version of Driveclub yesterday to see if it was something I could get into (since there is that bundle sale this week). Deleted it after a race. I just cannot get into these sim racing games. Too easy to fuck up and skid out of control. Plus boring. We haven't had a great arcade racer in years.

I just hope Sony does not ever add it to Plus unless it really gets fixed. Not because I already have the game, but because it is that hopelessly broken.

I would love for them to add Nom Nom Galaxy to Plus since I think it is a great game that was unfortunately overlooked. To be fair though, it had its fair share of issues at launch too. Unlike this game, when the dev said things were fixed, they were actually fixed.

Maybe that's why Grow Home ended up winning. Sony knew it was borked to hell, but had already signed for it to be a part of the promo so they rigged the voting or something.

 
I definitely don't miss running around at lunchtime doing flipping errands.  I knew there was a reason I stopped doing this stuff.

I have my blue vita all squared away though.  and I picked up mad max AND mgs5 from the library so I can let you guys know which one is better definitively.

Solid review, too bad about the glitches. Hopefully by the time it hits a sale or plus they have it worked out, game seemed really interesting before you guys started having so many problems with it.

Also, you got a little redundant at the end of the review, might wanna reword this sentence:

If you have 1-3 local buddies to play through the game locally with,

Its always nice to give the bottom competitors the impression they have a chance.

I know we did the co-op with pharm and all, but you still might want to fix this: "Your meant to have 1-2 players..."

Sure, I'll take it. The wife is visiting a friend for the weekend anyway, so that works perfectly.

 
Huh. Wonder if this will be any better than Reaper, which unfortunately had a shit main character and love interest.

I think it deserves one diamond just because of how bad it is to play with others and the fact that the non host cant even move properly. I couldnt tell what I was doing the majority of the time.

When they fix the bugs it could be a 3 or 3.5 easy. Would be fun if it were playable. The way it is now the only enjoyment was hearing Munky scream at the game. But that is offset by my own screaming later.

 
I finished the Gravity Crash Ultra campaign over lunch.  Its a cool looking game but the gravity and momentum is just too much.  It made it a chore to play especially in later levels as the enemy shots come fast.  I just wanted to get through the levels as fast as I could so I could finish the campaign and move on.

We talked about it a few different times while playing the game; both Sony and the developer Zoink Games are really lucky this game didn't win. It would have been a shitshow of complaints once people started teaming up and playing online.

I have to assume that Grow Home won because of YouTube. My youngest knew about the game and immediately wanted to vote for it when he heard it was up for a vote. He, like so many others his age apparently, is obsessed with youtubers and I'm sure he learned of the game on YouTube.

So Grow Home is the only game that could be on youtube?

 
Also, this blue faceplate actually doesn't look that bad in this pic. Kind of cool:

"The game truly looks like a cartoon, complete with with fully voiced cutscenes the [that/which/etc.] tell the completely off-the-wall story of four zombie viking warriors summoned by the god Odin to retrieve his eye after it was stolen by the wily Loki."

My fullproof plan of joining gamefly to rent the games I missed and then "keep" them for the sale price has been squashed. Yesterday I was able to "keep" FF Type 0 for the sale price but today they want to charge me $3 shipping to keep RE Rev 2. Wonder why they let me get away with it yesterday...

I think I like the yellow one better than the blue. But the blue would go nicely with the new vita...

On a related note I need GS to mess up some trade in prices so I can get a new vita.

Not necessarily, but it's the one that is easy to grasp and watch on youtube. I'm not sure you could convey what's going on easily in a stream of Armello. Whereas Grow Home "Cute robot grows shit to collect shit" is easy to understand.

Does it have anything to do with having too many game out at a time? Maybe once you receive your keeper FF Type 0 you can then buy another game that you rented first? Meaning, maybe the system thinks you are still getting your rental FF Type 0 until it is received so you cant "rent" another one yet?
