ABC CHALLENGE UPDATE 2

Hello Friends! This weekend was quite productive in gaming terms and I managed to kill another 2 games from the ABC challenge.

Q. 2064: Read Only Memories (Due to not having a game with Q)

This game is a VN, and I don’t even like VN. The game was indeed entertaining, with nice art and decent voice acting. The plot was interesting and the pace was not too slow. I was going to write a more detailed review about the things that annoyed me, but I have learned to avoid some themes to avoid trouble and controversy. I will just say that some of the content (doctrine) of the game felt spoon-fed to me the same way I felt A new beginning game environmentalism did. And I don’t like that in my games.
For non-native English speakers like me, please read about first person “they” before playing, or half the text won’t have any sense, since this grammar option doesn’t exist in many languages. Now that I know about it it’s quite useful to use.

Final score: 5/10 - Decent

R. Riptide GP Renegade

I had a blast with this one. Most fun racing game I have played in years. Instead of cars, here you ride Jet skis, which is a nice innovation for me, since I haven’t played older Jet ski games. Graphics are very good, and gameplay is smooth and rewarding. Stunts felt underused out of freestyle events, but they worked quite well. It even has a “story mode”, with some basic storyline which leads to a final boss battle with your racing nemesis.

Game is challenging, and final race can be brutally difficult if not played on easy difficulty, but overall I could finish all basic events without getting frustrated. I didn’t finish the bonus races, which provide a higher challenge for experienced players. I just signed out after finishing career mode and playing some bonus levels. Some minor annoyances included a bit of rubberbanding and police jetskis that only pursue you, leaving your competitors alone.

Final score: 8/10 – Very good

For now, I have to finish D (Currently at 5th level), and I have started to play G (Struggling with this one, I find it boring). I might also start some other games, probably B, F or W. My objective for this challenge is to finish 26 games, since most people will do that, so if I abandon one I will try to finish another game I like better.

Also one favour, could you explain me how to paste steam achievement pictures here in my posts? :)

Happy killing! Here you get the alphabet farm!
