Damien Chambers's Reviews

Before I became a Geek Under Grace I was a student of Journalism and have always aspired to write for a gaming and geek culture publication. I am truly blessed to have found an outlet to reach not only thousands of fans, but those who may not have yet found Christ. My favorite genre of games is third-person/sandbox games. I like the freedom that they allow both in gameplay and in scale and they just seem less bland and limited than more linear titles. I still have a soft spot for RPG games but I now enjoy JRPGs far less than I did as a child because they are still basically the exact same as they always were, with a few exceptions of course. I also enjoy playing more tactical third-person multiplayer shooters or first-person shooters that try to shake things up. I absolutely hate games based on WWII or Vietnam as those settings and those types of gameplay have been done to death. Though I am not opposed to a future Assassin's Creed title being set during one of these wars. I also typically tend to stay away from MOBA's as they are notorious for abusive, and generally unsavory online communities. My favorite game of all time is Chrono Trigger, which ironically enough is a JRPG but its one that I consider untouchable in quality.

G.I. Joe: Operation Blackout's beautiful animated cutscenes can't make up for the poor gameplay and lack of online multiplayer.

The Dark Pictures Anthology continues to hold much potential, but Little Hope's shortcomings show that Supermassive Games hasn't nailed their special formula just yet.

From the more simplified and streamlined combat and upgrade systems to the lack of weapons and gear deterioration, Fenyx Rising allows players to simply focus on the journey and all the joy and sense of wonder that comes with it. With the year we've all had in 2020, I don't know what more gamers could ask for from a new IP in an industry consistently drowning in an ocean or reboots, remakes, and remasters.

Scott Pilgrim Complete Edition is the definitive version of the beloved game that debuted two generations ago. This time, online multiplayer further enhances the fun as players can bring in three buddies to bash baddies and get the girl!

8 / 10.0 - Everhood

If players can get past the grueling difficulty in the earliest parts of the game, they will find a whimsical fantasy tale that combines elements of genres they already love into something truly unique.

It pains me to say this, but all the color and character in the world—and even the legendary pedigree of developers Yuji Naka and Naoto Oshima—cannot save this outdated, uninspired, and just plain boring platformer.

With its engaging exploration, deep gameplay, well-acted characters, and a story that rivals those told in the MCU, Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy is what more Marvel games should strive to be.
