Mondays are kind of rubbish, unless you can score a game bargain to brain-hack yourself into thinking, hey, this wasn’t so bad after all. I’ve got a bunch of discounts that can fit this (smaller) bill. Personally and after watching Luke Reilly’s round-up on Alien games, I’d go for that 42% off Aliens: Dark Descent. Such a criminally underplayed gem that nails the survival horror factor of Jim Cameron’s god-tier action blockbuster.
In retro news, I’ve baked a big, 15-shaped cake for Shadow Complex, a Metroidvania that broke XBLA sales records. Built by Chair Entertainment, a dev who’d go on to make the (sadly delisted) Infinity Blade trilogy, this 2.5D romp hooked me with its “suspiciously well-trained hikers discover a black site” plot. Basically, it had rock solid gunplay, a delicious drip of OP power-ups / tougher foes, and a decent runtime for its low, low asking price. For science, I bought and replayed Shadow Complex Remastered over the weekend—still great and worth the bucks.
