Now ends the winter of dis’ content material
Howdy ho, associates and lovers, and welcome to this week’s version of Whatcha Been Taking part in? This week sees us waving farewell to February, and optimistically hoping for the sunshine and heat air of the approaching spring season. I do know I’m greater than able to throw off my second cover, and I’m sick of preserving heat by throwing spare cash bundles on the fireplace, (I’m a Video games Journalist in any case).
Whereas not fairly as jam-packed as 2022, the beginning of this yr has seen the discharge of fairly few massive releases, and we’re now getting into one thing of a dry interval (although we nonetheless have a couple of gems coming in March). It’s unusual how the trade is but to fairly restore its calendar to its pre-COVID standing, and the beginning of the yr is now the brand new “Vacation releases” interval. Ehh, not that there’s any level in complaining, all of us have far, far too many video games to get by anyway, such is the insatiable urge for food of our interest.
Double Peace Out
It’s been one other busy-busy week right here on the great ship Destructoid, however I nonetheless had sufficient time to run by the extremely gratifying Gothic platformer Grim Guardians: Demon Purge. A title that stunned me on a number of ranges, I had an excellent time with what’s, at its coronary heart, a comparatively simplistic launch that goals for attainable targets and achieves them handily. You’ll want to try my full assessment proper right here.
Except for that, I spent a little bit time, bafflingly, getting again on my Siege bullshit. It’s been a very long time. Lengthy sufficient, in reality, that I used to be shocked to be taken down by each Like a Dragon‘s Goro Majima and NieR: Automata‘s 2B… Y’know, these iconic Tom Clancy characters. Ehh, I’m being facetious, in fact. It’s a incredible shooter and nonetheless provides up intense, twitchy, nail-biting motion.
What’s subsequent for yer pal, Moyse?.. I’ve a horrid feeling it would contain zombies and an island of some type. Pfffffft… The hits I take for this staff within the identify of protection.
Spring ahead, associates
