more sacred 2
this time on PS3
A TRUE HIDDEN GEM
typically a game usually is directed at a single platform and extends its roots from there. at heart it's a PC game, but there are differences between both versions which are unique enough to separate them, and both have unique advantages over each other, but both are also equal value despite the differences, which is very strange, as this is the only known game in existence to achieve something like this. very unique from a technical perspective.
personally i prefer the PS3/xbox version
because on this platform it is a true king, and you just know it, you can feel it, it's quite obvious.
by far the largest, most detailed game which dwarfs the entire system its running on. not just it's hardware, or physical system itself, but *everything* about the system. its fanbase, its library, its spirit, everything is made to look pathetic in comparison to this german masterpiece running on what could best be described as fucking peasant box.
the UI is fucking gorgeous on the console version of this game, its the best iv'e yet seen in style color and simplicity. its made just right - not chinese or overtly futuristic or riced-out. it sort of gives me that legend of zelda LTTP vibe in terms of originality and "specialness" .... i dont know the fucking word for it, go fuck yourself. it feels legendary in terms of quality
what won me over was the controls.
this game being a hack n slash, doesnt require the autistic control of a full keyboard and mouse layout.
you cant fucking play this game sitting upright, i tried it, its too long, you cant fucking do it.
and there is no gamepad support on the PC version, none at all, and you cant xpad your way out of it with a custom control mapper.
oh, and multiplayer works on PS3
joined some german dude on the first game i ran on this system, it was pretty sweet
