Bullet Heaven HD, Episode 157 - Touhou Genso Rondo -Bullet Ballet-

t's finally happening! A Touhou game on Bullet Heaven! But you may not have expected this to be the first... and we didn't expect it to resemble another certain game we've taken a look as quite as closely as it does. Daeruna Calls them Ballet Shooters. I call them pretty neat. But how does Touhou Genso Rondo stack up? Let't take a look in the Series 7 Finale!

Bullet Heaven EX, Episode 33 - Caladrius Blaze

n episode 141 of Bullet Heaven HD, we took a look at Caladrius on the Xbox 360. It was a toned down version of a super fanservice heavy vertical shmup that was a little light on content but super approachable and pretty fun. H2 now brings the restored Caladrius to western audiences with Caladrius Blaze, featuring all kinds of extra goodies, less censorship and restored VO. But how does it stack up?

Wait, wait, now you’re telling me that it sucks—oh….  

Oohhhh

On our hundredth (yeah, our official one-hundredth episode) we go on to talk about the unavoidable phenomena that is hype, and how it usually gets spearheaded in our face within our screens, phones, timelines, and worst—your fellow people. In addition, we decide to pit Candy Apple Faygo and Lime & Cucumber Gatorade against each other, Pokémon Go, Pokémon Sun/Moon, Gamescom, Metal Gear Survive, Inside, Galaga Wars, No Man’s Sky, Tekken 7, WarFrame, the leaked PlayStation 4 Slim, AM2R, and so much more.

It’s another long one you guys, settle in, and grab the right drink, (you know which one) as you listen to us on our “hundredth” show!

QCF: Mirror's Edge Catalyst

hen DICE first showed off Mirror’s Edge, it was a pledge to turn whatever we thought about first-person adventure games on its head; guns weren’t the focal point, your sense of momentum, and imagination was.

The premise of a parkour-driven resistance fighting against the Big Brother-like tyranny of an all-powerful government regime created a setting that complimented both the presentation and gameplay wonderfully, delivering what could be considered one of the most criminally underrated experiences to be had in the last generation.

That’s not to say that Mirror’s Edge went entirely unnoticed, as it garnered a dedicated following despite the lukewarm success it saw commercially, and the promise for a sequel kept fans foaming at the mouth for years—and well, it was…kind of worth it. Expanding Mirror’s Edge level design into an Open-World template only seemed like the most natural course of progression that the series could take, but the execution of the approach is a bit too clunky to justify the anticipation this entry had going for it these last couple years, and it’s a damn shame.
