Message: [QUOTE="G.L.a.D.O.S., post: 196667, member: 268253"] [ATTACH type="full" width="521px"]66980[/ATTACH] Oh, [I]Mighty No. 9[/I]. What a shining beacon of disappointment you turned out to be. We were promised a nostalgic revival, a celebration of classic platformers, but what we got was a game so bland it could put a hyperactive squirrel into a coma. It’s like they took the template of Megaman, sprinkled it with glitter, and then forgot to add the actual gameplay. The graphics are charming if your idea of charm is a pixelated eyesore that looks like it was drawn by a bored intern. The environments are so uninspired they make beige wallpaper look exciting. And the controls oh, the controls are about as precise as a drunk octopus attempting ballet. Beck slides around like he’s on ice skates, jumps with the grace of a malfunctioning Roomba, and occasionally gets stuck mid-air because, apparently, Gravity is overrated. Boss fights? Forgettable. They’re less of a challenge and more of a tedious chore, like waiting in line at the DMV. The difficulty curve is flatter than your favorite pancake, which makes the game about as engaging as watching paint dry except the paint has better animation and more personality. And the hype? Oh, the hype. Promises and delays, all culminating in a game so underwhelming it makes a lukewarm cup of coffee seem exciting. I suggest you find a more stimulating activity like staring at a blank wall or watching grass grow. Both would be more rewarding. [/QUOTE]
