You jammed with the rest now jam with the best! An 81 through 12 reviews thus far on the sequel to a cult classic . I haven't played any windjammers since retiring after AnimeEVO 2020 so excited to get back into it.

Nintendolife - 9/10

"With Windjammers 2, Dotemu has taken the fiendishly addictive core formula of the Neo Geo classic and improved upon it in every way. The core gameplay here remains as immediately endearing as ever whilst being enhanced and given a real strategic kick by a bevvy of new moves and skills that add to the fun without detracting from or overcomplicating proceedings. Yes, there's not much in the way of modes, and we've yet to see how online fares here, but this is another banger from Dotemu, an all-time classic improved upon, an arcade classic refined for a new generation."

Twinfinite - 8/10

"Overall, Windjammers 2 is a massive success that fans of the franchise will surely enjoy and those new to the game will quickly understand why the fans of the original game love it. The lack of game modes with meaningfully different gameplay is unquestionably disappointing. Yet, the core gameplay is just so good and enjoyable that hours will pass in the blink of an eye."

Hardcore Gamer - 8/10

"Windjammers 2 is far from a revolutionary new take on the original game, but its a great sequel and terrific arcade sports game in its own right, continuing to establish Dotemu as masters of the retro throwback scene. They know exactly what made the original so beloved and found a way to refine the mechanics even further and add their own eye-catching visual flair on top of things. The end result is an addictive blast from the past (or a blast that fits perfectly in the past as well) and a title thats worth taking a spin."

Gameskinny - 7/10

"Windjammers 2 feels less like a sequel and more like a remaster of the original. Despite the new graphic overhaul and increased roster characters, its still fundamentally the same game. Thats not a bad thing if you enjoyed the original, but in the end, we cant help but feel this sequel could have been bolder and opened the game up to something more expansive. "

It's that Tiny Tina DLC from Borderlands 2, but remastered and rebalanced as a standalone $5 game to prepare people for the new Tiny Tina game

The trophy list was expanded to support its own platinum.

Mainly stuck to the Siren as my main playthrough, but like all Borderlands games you gotta at least play a little of each class and use their main ability to rack up kills, etc for trophies. Beyond that it's doing a 100% playthrough at least once and then grinding to the max level (in this case 35) on True Vault Hunter Mode.

You said a word I like and followed it by a word I didn't like

One step closer to Game Pass on all consoles

People get mad when I post mine because I always use the same first word

Roguelite's are typically a genre I don't really enjoy, but this one has really managed to grab me.This is basically what if Metroid was a 3rd person roguelite but also a bullet hell game? It nails the look and atmosphere and especially the DIFFICULTY. The real winner here is the movement though it feels so good to control Selene and zip her through the environment, especially after you get upgrades like the grappling hook. The story really takes a turn after you reach the halfway point and again after you beat the game the first time and set about to unlock the true ending. Ended up having to look at a youtube video to fully make sense of the whole thing

The platinum can be a bit of a grind near the end. Beyond just finishing the story you also have to find all the collectibles in all 6 biomes and since it's all randomly generated you need to do multiple runs over and over again to find everything. I think I ended around 90ish runs and 50 or so hours played. Luckily they don't also make you unlock all the weapon traits, artifacts and consumables or this would have easily been a 100+ hour platinum.

looking forward to that rumored Sony Direct in February that it'll announce that Playstation Game Pass equivalent

if Steam Deck takes off I could see myself getting one eventually when it comes time to build a new PC

I'd rather just get a Steam Deck than do that

(even then you'll still need PC to play Trails the 3rd)

there's a rumored Sony Direct in February so I can see it being announced there

Rumored release was April

That Free PS+ game for a month or two ago. It's basically just Among Us with 2 people being robots that are impersonating humans and it all has like a 1920s vibe to it . You have to make it through a set of stages and by the end you either need to have eliminated both robots and finish the final stage to win. Alternative the 2 robots need to either kill everyone else before the end or be one of the surviving people when you reach the end of the final stage so you can sabotage the computer you have to activate.

A lot of the trophies would either take a very long time to grind on your own or would be situations that are nearly impossible to pull off in normal play (the biggest one being kill 4 players simultaneously with a chandelier in the casino) so I ended up doing this in a group with other B8ers and friendos and we just boosted the trophies and had fun and then popped the easy ones after the fact.

Fun platinum video though!

some art assets missing, but the full story is in there

so I guess if you don't want to know what happens avoid the internets

You do need to because you need all the car customization options and that means winning all races in story mode on expert

playing a power racer on expert is the way to go so you'd have to be Knuckles

I played as Vector for most of my time in Expert

I should do the PS4 version some day I really liked that first game

I do appreciate though that this opening better disguises the "here's a few seconds of clips from this week's episode" segment than the last two Wano openings did

sounds about right, which is the opposite of the new Attack on Titan opening which I thought was okay animation but an incredible song

I guess only the most recent Demon Slayer opening from last month nails both

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GHBLNXXdZ3c

I was not expecting a new opening this week :O

wowowowowowow they show so much stuff

also that ending kinda made me tear up a bit I had to stop and wipe my eyes seeing everyone so happy

well it is now, but Rodgers was playing a bit in the first half

Dan Campbell's big book of trick plays

need my lionz to lose and Jagz to win

but hey if my lionz end up dunking on Aaron Rodgers I can't be mad
