Donkey Kong is here

Launching April 26th. I'm in the mood for a new tennis game, it's been a while. I might pick this one up on day one.

I've always liked this one. It's such a simple concept with a camera panning around different elaborate dioramas, but it really nails the style and the essence of the game. It's too bad this came out before the 4K days, this would look absolutely phenomenal in a higher resolution. Second pick would be the trailer for Mirror's Edge's first unveiling. That theme song still fits like a glove and it's such a good representation of what the game is about, showing off a bit of raw, unedited parkour, how they use colour as a main tool for building different moods and scenarios and just the general sense of freedom and independance it's going for with its storyline. I don't think there has ever been a trailer that impressed me more than this. I also just noticed that both have zero voice over or dialogue snippets, which gives everything else you see and hear more room to breathe.

Insert my usual rant about this being locked behind a subscription.

I'd absolutely encourage checking out Immortals. I probably liked it more than the average person will, but I still think it's a lot better than people have been giving it credit for.

I think the character designs are pretty cool, there's some destructible elements on the maps, which Overwatch doesn't have. Hulk and Banner being some kind of stance character is interesting, especially as he's supposed to be a tank. But then again, it's free-to-play. So this will most likely be a money-grubbing mess.

You can just join our family group if it helps? I know it doesn't stop it being behind a sub, but it solves it for you

Despite the graphics/performance I think this game looks cool. But it’s around £60 😦 It’s a bit too much for what it is and the state it’s in.
