Im interested but not convinced any of these are any good. Anyone care to share their opinion on either of these series?

Guacamelee was a pretty fun Metroidvania game. I beat the first one and played a little of the second IIRC.

Guacamelees are amazing, the first Surge is okay, the second is a lot better

Guacamelee is pretty fun. Its not the longest game but its a pretty tightly put together metrodivania beat em up with some nice platforming. The music's great and I found the visual theming pretty good too. The game's loaded with referential humour which in my opinion ranges heavily from great to very corny. It also goes on sale like a million times a month on PSN.

Surge 1: good but unpolished (and the end section is definitely undercooked)

Surge 2: good, awkward difficulty curve

Guacamelee: Noticably Indie metroidvanias (there's design elements and decisions that just...feel budget), but good and has co-op

I'm here to second both Guacamelee games. I played them both co-op with a friend and it felt like a beat em up during a Metroidvania. Probably helped we're both hispanic and take care of chickens though <_<

I wish CE archived so I could just copy/paste my extended thoughts on both games. Metroidvania is probably my favorite genre of video games and Guacamelee 2 is a top 10 MV for me probably.

Surge 1 and 2 are great if you like Souls game.

Guacamelee is kind of fun but I found that they didn't balance the bosses at all for solo play.
