Destructoid: "As Dtoid’s shmup guy, I often gloss over story details in this genre. After all, it seems no one cares -- least of all the developer, in some cases. Do we really need to know why doll-piloted airships must destroy mechs modeled after schoolgirls in skirts? Not really. That and deciphering these games' stories is often near impossible without a press release attempting to make sense of the madness.
Imagine my surprise then when I booted up Sine Mora and was floored by the story. It’s not just good; it’s not just great; it’s easily one of the strongest stories to ever grace this medium. The fantasy world built within this game is one of the richest I’ve ever encountered in any medium. It is filled with wonderful concepts that could be expanded into novels, but remain tiny details for the sake of story flow. It's smart sci-fi told with heart and soul."
10 years after launch, Grasshopper Manufacture's Sine Mora remains one of the finest shoot-'em-up games in recent memory.

Destroy all Humans was $2 at one point... this is by far the cheapest month so far. Sine Mora, Shantae? WTF
I guess they are using it to fund all the money they losing on Game Pass from $1 subs.
Why would they even try giving away decent games when they can have their customers pay for them with GP?
Do you think it's possible XBL will include GamePass in the future and just drop the free games?
I'm talking about them dropping free games and providing GP at the same cost as XBL. $15/month is too much for lots of ppl imo
april was pretty good with Project Cars 2 and Fable Anniversary, but the rest this year haven’t been great. But, mind you, you do get 4 games every month as opposed to PsPlus scaling back to 2 games a month so 🤷
A good game is timeless, but these games just won't go away.
I've beaten it on GC, PS2, PC, Wii, Xbox One... Probably in my top five favorite games.
Donkey Kong, Street Fighter 2, Final Fantasy, Final Fantasy II, Final Fantasy IV, Mario Bros, Super Mario Bros, Sonic the Hedgehog 2, Rayman 2, Pac-Man, Ms Pac-Man have all been rereleased at least a dozen times on different platforms.
Rather get news of a new Elser Scrolls then all this re-releasing of Skyrim. Curious to see how many people actually get it on Switch.
FFVII and Minecraft should be there too. Tetris and Monopoly is also makes regular reappearances.
FF7's nowhere near as bad as RE4.
FF7: PS1, PS4, PC, iOS, Android
RE4: Gamecube, Wii, PS2, PS3, PS4, PC, X360, X1, iOS, Android
Totally buying this tomorrow :D Looks stunning!
Looks great. I'll probably pick it up as well.
