Angelic powers very original for its time that can lead to different strategies: bullet-time, possession, resurrection, etc. Great variety of enemies makes The Fallen is one of my favorite fictitious armies: soldiers with different armor, robots, demons and fallen angels. Small jokes and critics to occidental society as you see an poster about Lilith cosmetics, when Lilith is one of the bosses, or a poster about a The Riders film, clearly The Four Horsemen, as if the demons were infiltrating society through frivolity and the worship of appearance. Sadly this game also is very underrated.Jhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09007489717158788471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2068112306642079190.post-87259923631620043102012-10-18T10:15:32.739+01:002012-10-18T10:15:32.739+01:00I don't think I got far enough into Requiem to...I don't think I got far enough into Requiem to say whether it was crap or not. I must've found a dozen enemies in total at the most. Something about my so-called 'computer' didn't like Chapel F. It's a shame that there isn't a GOG version of this that's designed and tested for new computers. They've got Robinson's-bloody-Requiem, but not Requiem: AA.<br /><br />I didn't put a Gold Star on Chrome, Ray must've done that.<br />mecha-nekohttp://superadventuresingaming.blogspot.com/search/label/mecha-nekonoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2068112306642079190.post-43258549136784541982012-10-18T09:40:55.037+01:002012-10-18T09:40:55.037+01:00Damn, I thought I'd caught all of them.

But soon it dawned on me that this was a STUPID THING TO DO, and made things unnecessarily confusing, so I removed them. Or at least I thought I had.<br /><br />For the record I've finished Chrome, and thought it was incredibly repetitive, but surprisingly playable. I played Nox for a few hours, and I remember it seemed like a interesting take on the Diablo formula. And Ketsui... well I'm sure I must have played it at some point, but all those flashy mid-90s shoot 'em ups start blurring together after a while.Ray Hardgrithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18436491500347661133noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2068112306642079190.post-81511403323970692792012-10-18T09:17:28.955+01:002012-10-18T09:17:28.955+01:00A quick search indicates that there are three gues...A quick search indicates that there are three guest posts with a Gold Star tag:<br /><br />Mecha-Neko: http://superadventuresingaming.blogspot.co.uk/2011/06/chrome-pc.html<br /><br />Ocean: http://superadventuresingaming.blogspot.co.uk/2011/04/nox-pc.html<br /><br />Nintondo Man: http://superadventuresingaming.blogspot.co.uk/2011/03/ketsui-arcade.html<br /><br />I'm guessing that Ray simply tagged them as Gold Star material because he wanted to play them himself later..?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2068112306642079190.post-9251234959755210782012-10-18T00:52:29.920+01:002012-10-18T00:52:29.920+01:00Huh.

I could have sworn i've seen mecha-neko give out a gold star or a wins the prize at some point, but I guess that must have been an Xbox 360 "Dishonored" induced hallucination. That happens sometimes when I come back to the real world. Well, real-ish world anyway.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13394520869207981915noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2068112306642079190.post-353269648048711162012-10-17T22:35:17.213+01:002012-10-17T22:35:17.213+01:00Yeah, I decided at the start that I'd keep the...Yeah, I decided at the start that I'd keep the gold star for myself, and let other writers give out their own ratings if they felt like it. Which they didn't. My reasoning was that we all have different tastes in games, so a rating would have a different meaning for each writer. Seemed like a sensible idea at at the time anyway.Ray Hardgrithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18436491500347661133noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2068112306642079190.post-34400827212465578032012-10-17T19:47:14.093+01:002012-10-17T19:47:14.093+01:00There's no gold star because Ray wasn't th...There's no gold star because Ray wasn't the one who played it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2068112306642079190.post-63225000130865673052012-10-17T17:19:04.307+01:002012-10-17T17:19:04.307+01:00No gold star?

Hilarious screenshots too by the way, I have a big problem with 90s fps and their crate-warehouse-vent fetish. Seems they can never come up with anything else, but at least this has hell too.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13394520869207981915noreply@blogger.com
