New streaming service idea: Half-Chub Horror
Hereditary was a hard sit for me, cause it was way more depressing than scary to me ... which itself is a certain kind of scary, but I felt most scares I felt watching it had to do more with my own family's hereditary issues than with what the movie did. It was brilliant in many other ways, but I'd be hesitant to call it "scary" for me as opposed to "hard to watch."
Having played very little of Bioshock, I think I know what Julian is talking about with pick #3. Maybe not, cause I only barely got into the second large area if I'm remembering correctly. I feel like I can't really experience that game with fresh eyes, cause so much about it has permeated gaming culture dialogue that I'm not sure what I'd find genuinely surprising anymore.
Drowning in Sonic games just fucking infuriates me, cause why in a game about speed am I 1) underwater AT ALL 2) having to wait for a bubble to generate?
Never heard much about Havoc except from Blake.
Oh good God, backlogs. And in my case, dwindling funds even with finally finding at least a part time job. So many games I have yet to play ...
Man, I wish I could play P.T.
I love stories about creepy things happening to people working on creepy things ... even if half the time I suspect these are fairly typical issues on any production that are being embellsihed for PR reasons.
I don't think I've ever played a game that I couldn't put down or someone told me I had a problem, but I remember when my brother would EXPLODE at Madden and if I so much as sighed at a game, my parents would think another outburst was coming and yell at me just for that. So I guess the real life ramifications of Madden can be spooky ..
I should listen to that Clickbait Podcast.
I'd definitely recommend Arkham Knight to Patrick. Game of the Year 2015!*
*For non-PC users and people who aren't as into Bloodborne or Witcher III as others.
I wonder how ED holds up (pun intended?) now, cause I too only rented it a couple of times.
I have no idea how anyone plays REVII in VR. That's just too damn much. At that point, just call that mansion that literally kidnaps you or whatever, ya freaks.
I'm glad you agree with my picks for the most part, cause I was wondering if horror game fans would look at my list and think "n00b" (which would still be fair).
And by cheese in Untl Dawn, I mean all the slasher and teen cabin vacation tropes throughout. It rises above that in a lot of ways, but that base is still there to make me laugh enough that it loses some horror effectiveness. Not ragging on Until Dawn. It is a great game.
N64 is good for horror just cause of how dark all those games look.
NWP building new friendships ...
Back later with Stage Select picks and to listen to Consumption Junction ... maybe after playing more of My Brother Rabbit, so I can FINALLY review the damn thing for Nick.
