There’s nothing more charming than a neat little independent game that has charm and style… except for these lot. Disappointments would be understatements since some of them have killed potential sequels with their abysmal performances.
Sure, there was online gaming back in the day but the modern age of online video gaming began almost twenty years ago with Xbox Live 1.0.
Haha. Yep. To be fair, I feel that it was actually worth it because it kept a good minimum standard. There was horrible lag back in the day and a lot of cheating/hacking. More so than today.
That is arguable seeing as how good similar PC services are these days. The lack of cheaters on console is the closed ecosystem rather than extra effort by MS/Sony
"To be fair, I feel that it was actually worth it because it kept a good minimum standard. There was horrible lag back in the day and a lot of cheating/hacking. More so than today."
The horrible lag back then was due to peole not having the speeds needed to run games, peoples internet speeds were all over the place. Hacking is as bad today, if not worse than back then. People now have access to sophisticated hacking programmes that were nowhere near as prevalent as they are today. Anticheat software was also available way before Xbox Live and the paid online services became a thing.
I gamed online a lot from 1999 onwards and had great times playing without having issues with people cheating and no one had to pay for an online subscription.
Video created for comedic purposes only. Press2Reset fully supports hardworking Indie developers. In fact, for a fun experience on the XBLA Indie Game Marketplace, we recommend you check out I MAED A GAM3 W1TH ZOMB1ES!!!1, Dead Pixels, and Cthulu Saves the World. All are wonderful XBLA Indie Games.
I try really hard to play XBLA Indie games, but they need better ways of promoting the good ones.
I usually get my indie games on PC, simply because they're easy to find. I'll have to start making a habit of checking the XBL channel.
Love the indie games, cheap and full of ideas.
MS should reward the games by giving the devs money to make a full fledged xbl arcade title remake.
A grant of some sort would be nice for those indie devs that create top-notch games, but I don't think MS would do it. At least they have the Summer of Arcade and one or two other promotions for indie games through the year.
I find that indie games are generally just not very good. Although, maybe if they got more promotion, more talented developers would move to the platform.
I think it's just the needle in the haystack kind of deal. I'm sure there are lots of good ones, but they are far outnumbered by the poorly developed ones.
As soon as I heard there was a Walking Dead game coming to Xbox live arcade, I was all geared up to play it!
So, now as I sit waiting for it to finish downloading I’m totally and completely stoked. Since seeing the trailer for this, I’ve been like a child just before Christmas. I want to cheat…I want to peek, but I can’t, I just have to wait for it to finish downloading so I can jump head first into the zombie mayhem!
This is the NerdKO review, brought to you by Gamer Muzz.
Comic Jumper just wasnt as fun as splosion man ¬¬
Some of these actually look pretty cool, but I can see how they may have failed to live up to players' expectations.
Blacklight Tango Down was fun for a brief amount of time. Though if you played the team based modes, either team will end up just camping outside of the other teams spawn base and just kill you as you came out. And that ability you got to see through walls and stuff kinda felt cheap.
Comic Jumper looked really good but it felt like a letdown, I enjoyed Splosion man, but Comic Jumper wasnt that fun
God Dam that TMNT remake!
Saw Comic Jumper, decided author is an idiot.
