Slitterhead review: body-hopping action horror that’s best left dispossessed x

by

[ad_1]

I was excited for Slitterhead, an action adventure game by Bokeh Studio, a studio founded by none other than your boy Keiichiro Toyama: the creator of Silent Hill, Gravity Rush, and the Siren series. And within that first hour, Slitterhead’s body-possessing and Hong Kong-inspired streets had me thinking, “Is this it, the sleeper hit of 2024?!”

No, sadly not. It’s no doubt built a compelling universe filled with brain-sucking aliens that masquerade as humans, and it attempts plenty else besides: bouncing between bodies as you stealth around dingy apartment blocks, fighting with blood katanas, and gorging on pools of red plasma to refuel skills, many of which require more body-flitting. Thing is, they are ultimately just attempts, attempts that fall victim to an emptiness and jitteriness that quickly reveals Slitterhead’s true, irritating form.

It’s never too early in the week to play 4D minigolf x

by

[ad_1]

I didn’t sleep last night for entirely self-inflicted reasons and my brain feels like that one accursed hoover bag you refuse to empty, because there is no way of doing so that won’t turn the neighbourhood into Silent Hill. I need to avoid any complicated write-ups, or my brain will detonate similarly and paint north London grey.

Ah, a minigolf game! I think I can just about hack the concept of minigolf, on this most desperate of Mondays. It is golf but mini. Bonzai golf. Digestible! Intuitive! Why, I’ve managed to write 100 words without even looking at the Steam page. Let’s do so now. Wait a minute, this isn’t minigolf. It’s Mini Mini Golf Golf. What is Mini Mini Golf Golf? “Destabilize the present and plunge into a neon psychohistory of a bizarre entity in distress,” the Steam page explains. “This is not a game about minigolf.” It is too late to flee.

Assassin’s Creed Shadows will reboot Assassin’s Creed’s patchy modern-day story x

by

[ad_1]

Put your hand up if you’d forgotten that every Assassin’s Creed game is, strictly speaking, set in the present day. I know I had. That’s not the actual distant past you’re parkouring through. That isn’t actual Renaissance architecture you’re clambering on. It’s a holographic Animus simulation, conjured from ancestral memories flash-frozen within your DNA – convenient, inasmuch as it means that any inconsistencies are your DNA’s fault, not Ubisoft’s. If the ledge-mantling animations are glitchy, that’s simply because you have bad genes.

We can both be forgiven for losing sight of Assassin’s Creed’s modern day narrative frame. Ubisoft themselves have downplayed it since the era of Desmond Miles, the watery Peter Parker figure who served as puppetmaster protagonist for AC games up to Assassin’s Creed 3. In Assassin’s Creed Shadows, however, they’re planning to bring back the modern day setting in a big way, though details are scanty.
