Triachnid (Flash)

While attempting to not fall into a coma at work the other day I tried playing a new flash game I had heard about, Triachnid. I think it was nominated for an award or something and having no opinion of my own and believing everything other people tell me I thought it must be great and I should try it. First off it looks way creepy, I don't think it's even that it looks spider like, it's just kind of fuzzy, boney and baby like at the same time like an anarecsic bear. Anyway it gives me the creeps which is not a good start, then how do you control this thing, you're supposed to move it's paws individually, how much fun do you think it would be to drink 12 pints of lemon hootch then have to pick up your own feet and drop them down to move across the floor, imagine that with one extra foot, it's that much fun. The little fun I had with this was flinging spider-bear-baby from tops of cliffs and watching it fall, sadly it would not die, later I discovered that if you stretch it fully it flashes red as if in pain, this was slightly more fun.

All in all I don't get it so either I'm inept at games or it's rubbish but since it's been nominated for an award and I don't think the award was for most irritating game with a baby-spider-bear in it, it must be the former. I'm rubbish I admit it and this is better than 10 halo's puréed and intravenously shunted through my brain stem!

Chess (Wood)

By
Having worked through a few retro video games lately I thought I'd try one of the earliest I could find. Similar in play to something like Final Fantasy Tactics on the Game Boy Advanced, Chess is a deep game, easy enough to pick up but becomes brain hemorrhagingly complex very quickly. Oddly for games of this period it's multiplayer only, similar to say Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 with no single player mode. You actually have to have friends to play this and, much like the Game Boy Advanced, they must be sat in front in of you. Mercifully, batteries and link cables are not required which could explain some of its popularity. Chess has evolved a rich tournament following too and global competitions are held regularly, accumulating five times the viewers of the League of Legends World Championships. The game does have its draw backs. It’s very easy for novices to get into a none winnable situation, two pieces following each other round the board until someone nods off. A little of ...

Pokemon Sapphire (GBA)

By
  Here we have the 3 rd Generation of Pokémon Games for the Nintendo handheld console. Sapphire and Ruby. Not a great deal has changed since the first generation and nor will it for the next six. The game consists of you skuttling around a made-up Japanese island hunting creatures into servitude. The poor beings follow you on a long excursion of frequent and arduous battles with other trainers. Eventually culminating in your crowning as Pokémon master of masters of the universe! or some such. The game is a heavily disguised version of more traditional Role-Playing Games. Rather than fighting yourself though, you thrust your hapless creatures in the role of ready cannon fodder. Carefully selecting moves against opponent types in an overly complex version of rock, paper scissors. Your minions evolve, change (sometimes unrecognisably from before) and learn completely new moves. The evolution of these little buddies is quite satisfying, and you soon become quite attached to a few of t...

Devil May Cry 4, Is Reviewed

By
I'm scarred, I'm scarred because here will be another game that I will buy, spend about 5mins playing before I question my PS3's parentage and sexual activity in loud squeaky voice. I know this will happen mainly because of this line in the review , "the game is kick-in-the-balls tough", yep really looking forward to this. I also KNOW this will happen because exactly the same thing happened to me with DMC3, think I got the bit just after the 3 headed dog (The FIRST boss), then lost my save....Have not played it since. But I know I'll buy it again because I love DMC, 1 was breath of fresh minty air not seen again until God of War came out, 2 was large poo baguette but then 3 while very difficult I did enjoy, once I'd calmed down. Oh but then there is a small glimmer of hope for me, "DMC4 is easier than the third instalment" Thank GOD! Note: Previous incidents mentioned above have honestly almost got me kicked out halls in uni, DOA2, nuff said. CVG
