Still the best baseball management sim ever, and predictably so given its similarity to last year's great game.

[Kojima]'s made a game that utilises more fully what a game should, with all the learning curves that come with trying something new. Metal Gear Solid 5 is the best stealth game I've ever played, it's just not the best open-world one.

7.2 / 10.0 - Hacknet
Aug 21, 2015

By and large it is much of the same thing for ten hours, and that's the irony of Hacknet; doing repeatedly something you've probably never done before. Play it because it's different, play it because it's a far cry from anything you're likely to in the coming months.

To the acquainted, this will simply be more of what you already know. To the unfamiliar, it commands an elemental mastery of something you don't.

7 / 10.0 - I Am Bread
Apr 29, 2015

Admittedly I am Bread is limited by its own choice of object. A slice of bread isn't exactly the prime candidate for platforming - it comes with certain mechanical consequences. As such the game can sometimes feel like a victim of its own creativity, but I am thankful it tried anyway.
