"Most of the games in my Backlog are things I bought just because they were on sale, but I also have a bunch of artsy-smarsty games that I bought because I felt like I should play them. Some designers specialize in this sort of weird game, and they develop a cult following for anything they make. One such fellow is Goichi Suda, or Suda51. He is responsible for No More Heroes and the upcoming Lollipop Chainsaw. But before those games, he created a Gamecube title called Killer 7. This has be..."
Monterey Jack has stepped up to take out the thirty-fourth round of Articles of Excellence with his winning review for Killer 7. Although scoring it a decent 3.8/5, he describes it as a more peculiar title which, although it has it's pros, may just not be for everyone.
Bright Hub takes cult classic Killer7 for a spin to decide if the title still holds up to gaming's ever-changing standards. Does the game still look and play as good as it did back in 2005?
It was said that 10% of video game titles make up 90% of the industry's gross revenue. What about the other percentage of video games lacking a good name. Are they bad games? Have you ever played a game you loved that never once was advertised. Well check out this Top Ten List of Best Video Games that people never talk about.
Countless games tend to go unnoticed or unappreciated. Over the years, many of these titles garner a loyal following of gamers who enjoy them for what they are, and thus cult classics are born. This is part 1 of a 2-part series detailing the top 10 video games to achieve cult status. Stay tuned for part 2!
"SUDA51 now has a long list of global releases to his name, each of which has received a mixed critical response and performance at retail. Perhaps part of his trademark, along with the regular appearance of lucha libre themes and references to anarchistic music works, the likes of Flower, Sun, Rain, Michigan: Report From Hell, Contact, Killer 7 and, of course, No More Heroes have all received a great deal of attention at launch, and each successive title will only benefit from this reputation..."
"SUDA51 admirably believes that all his previous works are pertinent to his current successes. When discussing his previous titles, and drawing particular attention to his mid-2000’s releases Killer7 and Michigan: Report From Hell, SUDA51 was visibly pleased with the recognition these works had earned him."
"Every gaming season there are dozens of games vying for attention. Some are destined to be blockbusters; some are destined to be flops; still others are destined to be forgotten. Because of competing titles, poor marketing strategies, or limited budgets, several games with the potential to become the next best thing are just lost through the cracks. It’s a sad thing when a carbon copy Madden game can outsell a great and innovative title like Mirror’s Edge but it’s a fact of life."
While gaming has many memorable, defining and cinematic moments, it has also had it's fair share of awkward and embarassing moments too.
This list fits into the latter category of things we just don't want to remember. Go to the source for resumeplay.net's Top 5 Uncomfortable Moments In Gaming...
"It can happen to anyone: let's say you are watching a film with your parents, and an insanely vulgar display of crude sexual imagery comes up on the screen. In your mind you are torn between laughing as the film has intended or trying your best to act repulsed as to make your parents think you have a better sense of morals than you really do.
This type of thing can happen in many situations, and they especially occur in video games. Whether it be a mistranslation, or an overt act of zanines..."
GameInformer, the popular magazine about all things gaming that has somewhere near three million subscribers, always has a different game on the cover each time. MTV wanted to see if there was a GI cover curse, so they looked back into the past and pulled out magazines from 2-3 years ago.
One game titled Superman Returns didn't so well, receiving 6/10's. That's nothing compared to Fear and Respect, which was at one point on a GI cover, but ended up being canceled!
All in all, the game...
Everyone (Sony fans, and Final Fantasy fans) seem to be clamoring about FFXIII not being PS3 exclusive. This isn't the first time this has happened ladies and gentlemen. Lest you forget that VII (arguably one of the best in the series) was originally intended for the N64?
GamesRadar goes through a list of 10 more titles that brought out a similar reaction with fans.
