Why does everyone hate Kameo? Seriously. It's not a bad game (and yes, I've played it before).

Seriously I've been meaning to get that game for a minute now. I have played it as well and I like it. I want to end it before really making any judgement, but I always thought there would be a sequel.


Everyone basically hates on Kameo because it's so short - you can run through it in less than 10 hours. I suspect the hate lingers from people who bought it along with their shiny new $400 360 and then finished it in a weekend. But, really, its a damn good game for that 10 or so hours. Not only does it take the Zelda formula and do something new and interesting with it, but it's also still one of the prettiest games on the HD consoles. (Seriously. It showcases what developers could do if they stopped trying to churn out gritty, drab, bloom-covered, let's-see-how-many-shades-of-brown-we-can-use garbage.)

Besides, you can find it for about ten bucks now. I wouldn't have bought it at $60, but that's a really good deal.

Oh, and I'll have to recommend against Dead Rising. I suppose you could have some fun with it if you like just finding new and interesting ways to slaughter zombies, but if you want to actually make progress in the game, you need to fight against annoying time limits and far-too-sparse save placement.

Oh, also: You NEED to play The Darkness. It's perhaps the most underrated game of this generation so far.



"'Casual games' are something the 'Game Industry' invented to explain away the Wii success instead of actually listening or looking at what Nintendo did. There is no 'casual strategy' from Nintendo. 'Accessible strategy', yes, but ‘casual gamers’ is just the 'Game Industry''s polite way of saying what they feel: 'retarded gamers'."
