Road Redemption Is the Closest Thing to Road Rash Since...Road Rash | Attack the Backlog

7 hari yang lalu

—

This was a surprise. Early this year I wasn't sure what to play and wasn't quite ready for anything too big, so I perused my various libraries and picked out a few games that caught my eye. Road Redemption was one of those games. As someone who grew up with Road Rash and loved every iteration of it up to and including Road Rash 3D, any game that looks like Road Rash is going to get my attention. That said, I wasn't expecting much from Road Redemption based on the visuals, but as soon as I started playing, I fell in love. It may not be the prettiest game out there and it's rough around the edges, but it's great where it counts: it's just a lot of fun to play.…

Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League by Making Them Watch Endless Cutscenes | Attack the Backlog

21 hari yang lalu

—

Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League isn't a bad game, it's just a bad Arkham game. If you asked anyone what they wanted out of a sequel to Batman: Arkham Knight, I doubt a single person would say, "I want a co-op, live service Suicide Squad game," but that's what we got: a perfectly fine cooperative shooter with enough cutscenes to rival the runtime of The Return of the King: Extended Edition and four playable characters who feel mostly the same outside of unique traversal mechanics. But I guess it could have been worse; it could have been Gotham Knights instead.…

The Batmobile Ruined Batman: Arkham Knight, But Not for the Reasons You Think | Attack the Backlog

28 hari yang lalu

—

It's unoriginal to blame negativity towards Batman: Arkham Knight on the batmobile, but hear me out. While most (all?) complained about the batmobile from a direct gameplay standpoint--how it felt and the repetitive missions--my complaint is an indirect one: I think the batmobile ruined Arkham Knight by forcing Rocksteady to change the way other aspects of the game controlled in order to accommodate the batmobile controls . It may seem like a small complaint to most and something I should've have "just gotten used to," but I never got used to the small changes in how Arkham Knight controlled and that ultimately ruined the game for me.…

Batman: Arkham Origins Blackgate Is Often Forgotten (And Should Stay That Way) | Attack the Backlog

5 weeks yang lalu

—

As my full Arkham playthrough continues, we find ourselves at a new low with the game most people forget even exists: Batman: Arkham Origins Blackgate, the downloadable side-scrolling Metroidvania that's 90% tedious, 10% interesting. In many ways it feels like a bonus little side story to Arkham Origins and not an essential entry, so it's easy to see why it's often forgotten about; though, the fact it isn't that great of a game (probably) doesn't help either. It's biggest crime, however, is its desire to stay too true to the Arkham formula, instead of trying to find an identity of its own.…

Batman: Arkham Origins Is Secretly the Second Best Arkham Game | Attack the Backlog

6 weeks yang lalu

—

I thought I played Batman: Arkham Origins when it originally came out. I was wrong. When I booted up the game on my Xbox 360, all I had was a 5% completed save file from 11 years ago to the day, so what I thought was going to be another Second Run was actually an Attack the Backlog. I don't know if it's because it was all new to me or if it's just a better game (or maybe a little of both), but I had a significantly better time with Arkham Origins than I did with Arkham City. Arkham Origins takes what Arkham City did and simplifies and focuses it, delivering an overall more satisfying experience for someone like me who isn't a Batman super fan. It may not reach the heights of Arkham Asylum, but it's a worthy addition to the Arkham saga and should be treated on an equal footing with the Rocksteady-developed Arkham games.…

Batman: Arkham City Is More Arkham, Not Better Arkham | Second Runs

7 weeks yang lalu

—

I always preferred Batman: Arkham Asylum to Batman: Arkham City, but the gap this time was much larger and I have to assume it's at least partially due to the time gap between playthroughs being so small this time around; I just think playing these games back to back does Arkham City no favors. That said, and regardless of how time affected my feelings, I still think Arkham City is a worse game in almost every way, going for quantity over quality (except when it comes to the main storyline, which is actually shorter than Arkham Asylum's). It is by no means bad, man, but unlike its older brother, it's no "greatest game of all time" contender.…

Batman: Arkham Asylum Is Still One of the Greatest Games of All Time | Second Runs

8 weeks yang lalu

—

It's been a while since I've replayed a game, since I put out an episode of Second Runs, but when I decided it was finally time to play Batman: Arkham Knight, I knew what needed to be done first: replay every Arkham game that came before (and play the ones I never played for the first time). That brings us here, with me revisiting Batman: Arkham Asylum for not the second time, but the third time--which I only learned after booting up the remastered version and seeing a 72% completion save in front of me. Long story short: Arkham Asylum is not only a great Batman game, but one of the greatest games of all time, and if you want the long story long, check out this episode and enjoy.…

Hood: Outlaws & Legends Is Like Most Robin Hood Movies: Destined to be Forgotten | The Last Call

9 weeks yang lalu

—

Welcome, everyone, to a brand new show: The Last Call. (I technically called it Attack the Backlog because I recorded this episode before coming up with the new name, but every episode forward will be correctly branded). What is The Last Call? It's really quite simple: The Last Call is a show all about games that have received their final papers, their death sentence, the final nail in the coffin, however you want to phrase it, and are not long for this world; this can be due to being delisted, having their servers shut down, or any other finality in between. This inaugural episode is all about Hood: Outlaws & Legends, a PvPvE heist game that feels more like a mode in a full game than a full game on its own. The real question, though, is will Hood: Outlaws & Legends be remembered for everything it did, or forgotten for everything it didn't.…

Star Wars Jedi: Survivor Just Keeps Going and Going and Going | Part 02 | Attack the Backlog

10 weeks yang lalu

—

Star Wars Jedi: Survivor was good...until it wasn't. That's not entirely true. It never got bad, per se, it just went on and on for way too long, wearing out its welcome multiple times over. The real kicker, though--the thing that made me go from liking Survivor to (kind of) hating it--is the story--one specific aspect in particular. I won't spoil anything in this text description, but the same can't be said about this episode, so if you don't want to be spoiled, avoid this until you've played the game yourself. All I'll say is, when one character turned out to be bad, I wasn't surprised; however, when something else happened, you better believe I was surprised (and not in a good way).…

Star Wars Jedi: Survivor Is Mostly the Same and That's Okay | Part 01 | Attack the Backlog

11 weeks yang lalu

—

Thanks in large part to my Star Wars rewatch journey of 2025, but also because I overall enjoyed my time with Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, I returned to Cal Kestis and his adventures in Star Wars Jedi: Survivor. While a lot of things are the same, there are key differences that make Survivor feel like its own game, including much larger and open areas, fast travel (thank god), and a better and more interesting cast of characters, as well as just a fleshing out the characters we met in Fallen Order. We'll see if Survivor manages to top Fallen Order when all is said and done, but, for now, so far so good.…

It Always Felt Wrong and Never Right, So I Just Beat It | Hi-Fi Rush - Part 02

13 weeks yang lalu

—

Surprising no one, my opinion of Hi-Fi Rush didn't change since the last episode; if anything, it got worse. I still think it's a very pretty game, but at no point did I enjoy playing it. The worst part, though, is how disappointing the soundtrack is; in a game all about integrating music and gameplay, more is rightfully expected and Tango Gameworks failed to deliver and great and memorable soundtrack, forever keeping Hi-Fi Rush in a meadow of mediocrity.…

Chai Must Have Too Much Junk in His Trunk With How Heavy He Jumps | Hi-Fi Rush - Part 01

14 weeks yang lalu

Hi-Fi Rush is soooo pretty. Everything about it from an artistic standpoint is some of the best I've seen in a video game in years. That's why it pains me to say the rest of the game disappoints; from the music selection to the gameplay and everything in between, everything else in Hi-Fi Rush fails to reach the same heights as the art and animation. Things could change since I'm only halfway through, but I'm not expecting much despite hoping for the opposite.…

Force Powers Are Cool, but Double Jumps Are Cooler | Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order - Part 02

16 weeks yang lalu

I am happy to report that Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order gets better and better as it goes on, from eventually adding a double jump to introducing some of the coolest set pieces I've played in years. While Fallen Order may be rough around the edges--though not as rough as this episode or last--the core is as strong as any Force user and I couldn't be more excited to play Survivor in hopes it only builds from here--spoilers: I won't be waiting long to see if it does.…

The Force Is Kinda Strong With This One | Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order - Part 01

17 weeks yang lalu

—

This episode is a bit rough around the edges as the new format for Attack the Backlog is just around the corner (after all the Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order and Hi-Fi Rush episodes are out), but even so, it's still a solid time. Having played six hours of Fallen Order so far, I find myself enjoying the game, but not without issue. It feels good, looks good, and runs good enough, but the story so far is not quite there and some of the enemies are more annoying than challenging, but we're still early on in the game, so here's to hoping it only gets better from here and goes from "kinda strong" to simply..."strong."…

EDF With Dinosaurs This Is Not | Attacking the Backlog with Exoprimal

19 weeks yang lalu

This one is 100% my fault. If I paid any attention, I would have known what kind of game Exoprimal was--a team-based action game about completing the same objectives over and over again until you get so good you can do them in your sleep--but I didn't pay attention; instead, I let myself become disappointed by the game not meeting my uninformed expectations, so that's on me. That said, even after I accepted what the game is, it still failed to grab me in a way that kept me wanting to see more, a "more" people say exists, but I'll never know since I got more than my fix after hitting hour six.…

It's Not You, It's Me | Attacking the Backlog with Spider-Man: Miles Morales - Part 02

21 weeks yang lalu

—

It's not entirely me, but my overall meh-ness on Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales is partially due to my being burnt out on Spider-Man games. It doesn't help that Miles Morales is just another Spider-Man game, for better and worse, but I can't deny my blame in this outcome. While I was genuinely excited to play Miles Morales, it's clear my heart was trying to trick my brain into thinking things would be different this time--they weren't--so when I realized Miles Morales was just morales of the same, it was game over. It's not (all) you, Miles Morales, it's (mostly) me.…

It's Just Another Spider-Man Game... | Attacking the Backlog with Spider-Man: Miles Morales

22 weeks yang lalu

I was excited to finally play Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales as I was deep into my MCU (and live-action Spider-Man) rewatch, but that excitement quickly disappeared as I remembered exactly why I liked but didn't love Marvel's Spider-Man: it was just another Spider-Man game. This shouldn't come as a surprise, but Miles Morales is yet another Spider-Man game, for better or worse. There's nothing wrong with this, but it's clear at this point I'm just not much of a Spider-Man game fan anymore. Maybe one day I'll see the light again, but one thing's for sure, Miles Morales will not be the game to do it.…

It's No Downhill Domination, but It's a Fine Substitute | Attacking the Backlog with Riders Republic

24 weeks yang lalu

You may be asking yourself, "Why on earth did you decide to play Riders Republic of all the thousands of games you own?" The answer is simple: I love Downhill Domination and I'm always looking for games that scratch that itch; first there was Descenders and now there's Riders Republic. Let's not kid ourselves here, Riders Republic is no Downhill Domination, but it does scratch that itch--the mountain biking events specifically--and sometimes a bit of scratching is good enough, even if the itch comes back immediately after stopping. If only Sony would remake Downhill Domination and turn me back into the PlayStation fanboy I once was...…

I'm Happy to Have Nomore Golf Story to Play | Attacking the Backlog with Golf Story, Part 03

26 weeks yang lalu

The hell of my own making is finally over. After seven longs nights of streaming and over twenty hours of playing, my story with golf has ended and I can finally move on with my life. I don't say this lightly, but I genuinely believe like I wasted my time playing this game; not in the playing it all part, but in the playing it to completion when I should have said "no more" way sooner. If I can take away anything positive from this bit of backlogging, it should be this: Attack the Backlog is about attacking my backlog, not finishing it, so when a game isn't clicking, move on. Will I follow this advice in the future, or keep on keeping on? Only time will tell, but all signs point to my dumb ass keeping on like I always do.…

Can I Get a Mulligan, Please? | Attacking the Backlog with Golf Story, Part 02

27 weeks yang lalu

Things have taken a turn for the worse. While I was indifferent last episode, I am indifferent no more. I hate this game. I hate everything about it--okay, that's a bit of a stretch, but I really don't like a lot of it. What I thought was going to be a pleasant surprise is instead and wave of sand in my eyes (from hitting a lot of balls out of the bunker). Both the golfing and the story disappoint and boy oh boy is there a lot of the latter and not enough of the former, but who's really to blame? Is it my fault for expecting a more even split, or is it the developer's fault for making the game the way it is? You can come to your own conclusions, but I'll split the blame and call it a day...except this isn't the end of my journey; nay, there's still one more episode until we can say, "Golf Story...good day!"…

There's a Whole Lotta Story in Golf Story | Attacking the Backlog with Golf Story, Part 01

28 weeks yang lalu

I didn't know what to play after Kena: Bridge of Spirits. I perused the various short lists I created and, when I got to my Switch, one game popped out at me: Golf Story. I had always been interested in Golf Story ever since it first came out to overall glowing reviews, but me and the Switch haven't had the best relationship, so, like many Switch games, I never got around to playing it. Fast-forward to now and things have finally changed. It shouldn't be a surprise, but there is a lot of story in Golf Story and the quality of that story is a, "Your mileage will vary," affair, but there's golf to be played as well and, if you want to know how I feel about either or both (so far), you best listen to this here first episode in my playthrough of Golf Story for the Nintendo Switch.…

Kena: Bridge of Spirits: Part 02 - A Rough Finish, But Still Great in the End | Attack the Backlog

Things got a little rocky at the end. An annoying boss followed by another annoying boss almost soured the whole experience. Thankfully, the good of Kena greatly outweighs what little bad is there, so not much love was lost. There are things to nitpick and little ways they could have improved this or that, but what's there is a solid experience that doesn't overstay its welcome and leaves me excited to see what Ember Lab does next. If you want a fun adventure with a well-told story and beautiful art, you'll get that and more with Kena: Bridge of Spirits.…

Kena: Bridge of Spirits: Part 01 - Off to a Great Start | Attack the Backlog

Kena: Bridge if Spirits is a game I've been wanting to play ever since it was announced. I was so excited for it, I bought it on PlayStation 4. But as we all know, there is only so much time and we can only play one game at a time, so Kena ended up where 99% of my games end up: the backlog. Then, when I had the time and had the desire, a curveball appeared: Kena was announced for Xbox. "What?" I somehow got it into my head that Kena was a console exclusive. I was wrong. So with this news I waited, waited for the Xbox release to finally arrive and, well, here we are; was it worth the wait? Watch or listen to find out.

Destiny 2 - A Terrible Experience for New Players | Attack the Backlog

The title says it all. While Destiny 2 may have been a great game at launch and may still be great for those who went along for the ride these last seven years, it is not great for new players. If you're coming to Destiny 2 fresh--or in my case, after not playing for somewhere between six and seven years--you will be met with the same opening tutorial that was there from day one, but everything after that is a confusing mess of, "What should I do next? What's that thing there? What are all these menus?" and so on. There may be worse examples out there, but Destiny 2 is easily one of the worst games at onboarding new players I've played in years, maybe ever.…

Disney Speedstorm - Welcome to Disney's Newest Attraction: Microtransactionland | Attack the Backlog

35 weeks yang lalu

"Oh how I wish this was a 'regular' game," Marc said, enjoying their time in Disney Speedstorm. "Why did this have to be one of the most free-to-play games I've ever played?" 'Tis a tale as old as time. The tale of a game getting in its own way by forcing a bunch of nonsense down your throat when all you want to do is pay once--excluding future DLC, of course--and play forever (or until you get bored and want something new to play). If Disney Speedstorm was such a game, I'd wholeheartedly recommend it; however, as it is, I can only say give it a shot, I guess, since it's free (and actually really good when you're playing), but just know you won't be able to avoid the excessive free-to-play trappings that make up the skeleton, muscles, and skin of Disney Speedstorm.…

This whole week has been a painful blur, starting with a scary injury I'm still recovering from--a scary injury that could have been much worse--and ending with this episode of Attack the Backlog about THE HOUSE OF THE DEAD: Remake. In some ways I feel lucky for picking this game before the injury happened because it was easy and short enough to still manage an episode in my compromised state, but, at the same time, that means I had to play THE HOUSE OF THE DEAD: Remake.

System Shock: Part 04 - In the End It Was Still Great, but Not GREAT Great | Attack the Backlog

I made a bit of a mistake committing to make this week's episode the last episode, "forcing" myself to play the game for almost 13 hours. This led to pushing through frustrating times when a break would have been welcome and a need of crunching when it came to recording, editing, and posting this here episode. Did this commitment completely ruin my experience? Not at all; however, I do think it soured it a bit more than it would have been normally. That said, in spite of some bloat, poor boss fights, a bad ending, and a few console-related issues, I still had a great time with System Shock; it just ended up as more of an 8 great than a 9 great.…

Ghost Recon Wildlands: Part 01 - YOLO, So Best Not Play SOLO | Attack the Backlog

1 year yang lalu

—

This episode sees the return of Attack the Backlog, now in its new (and improved?) form. What was once more of a review(ish) show is now more of a Game Club(ish) show, moving from biweekly to weekly, where you can choose to play along with me, or just go along for the ride next to me, figuratively speaking, of course. But don't get too down because the old Attack the Backlog format will still exist once my time with a game is done--whether I finish it or decide I'm finished with it--as a cap to my journey with whatever game I'm playing at the time, so if all you want to hear are my final thoughts, you'll still have that option. That said, this here episode is all about my initial return to Ghost Recon Wildlands and how I maybe shot myself in the foot with this one, but I'll let the episode do the talking for me.…

Turnip Boy Commits Tax Evasion - A Decent Diversion and Nothing More | Attack the Backlog

1 year yang lalu

—

This episode of Attack the Backlog is all about Turnip Boy Commits Tax Evasion, a Zelda-like ala A Link to the Past, where you play as little Turnip Boy, not to be confused with Little Lion Man, who’s not as brave as he was at the start. After getting evicted by Mayor Onion for not paying your taxes, you must complete a handful of trash tasks for the layered mayor in order to get back your home, wouldn’t you know. These tasks include acquiring a fork, a laser pointer, and some green goop that may or may not lead to green poop. Along your journey you will meet a vast cast of quirky characters, a plethora of gamer-based humor, and more than your fair share of receipts and documents to tear. Sound like fun? Keep watching or listening to find out.…

Virginia - No. No, no, no, no, no. No. | Attack the Backlog

1 year yang lalu

—

This episode of Attack the Backlog is all about Virginia, a game that really wants to be a movie instead of a game and suffers for it, becoming one of the worst "games" I've ever "played," featuring a lot of walking and a whole lot of, "pressing 'A' to pay respects." The score may be great and it doesn't look too bad either, but when the act of "playing" it is so underwhelming, nothing can save it from becoming the latest game I hate, surprising no one, least of all my mates.…

Armed and Dangerous - Only a Few Laughs and Little More Than That | Attack the Backlog

1 year yang lalu

—

This episode of Attack the Backlog is all about Armed and Dangerous, a game that’s been sitting on my hard drive for years now, mocking me every time I look at my Xbox library with its top placement upon my alphabetically-ordered collection of download games, saying nothing short of, “Looks like someone’s still too scared to get a little dangerous.” Well, Armed and Dangerous…I’ll show you who’s dangerous. Anyway, this: is Armed and Dangerous.…

My Gaming New Year's Resolution(s) for 2024 | Attack the Backlog

1 year yang lalu

This episode of Attack the Backlog is all about...nothing in particular. That's right, this is not your traditional episode. Instead of talking about a single game like Marc usually does, they decide to get a little personal and apologize for a 2023 of so-so content--which they're sure you'll say they don't need to apologize for--before talking about what they hope for and plan to do in the year that is 2024, including a short list of games they'd love to play, as well as potential new shows/videos they'd love to make . 2023 has been a rough year for many, but here's to a 2024 of hope, optimism, pizza boxes galore, and so much more. Thank you all so very very much for sticking with me (Marc) this year, I hope you've managed to still enjoy the majority of content, and I hope I'm able to continue making stuff you enjoy next year and beyond. (Bear) hugs and (Hersey) kisses for all. 🐻🍫…

Goat Simulator - It's Kinda Baaaaaaaaaad | Attack the Backlog

1 year yang lalu

—

This episode of Attack the Backlog is all about Goat Simulator, a game where you simulate being a goat by licking everything you can see, headbutting everyone until they pee, and wrecking general chaos with a face full of glee, even though you’d much rather be playing General Chaos for Genesis...or maybe that’s just me.…

Heaven Dust - All It Is Is Dust in the Wind | Attack the Backlog

1 year yang lalu

This episode of Attack the Backlog is all about Heaven Dust, a game that takes inspiration to a whole new level, copying Resident Evil to a T…virus, from the key art to the gameplay to the structure to the story to the window…to the wall, ‘til blood drip down them walls, all these zombies crawl, y’all shoot shoot shoot shoot them in the head, y’all shoot shoot shoot shoot they dead . Or something like that...…

The Dark Pictures Anthology: Man of Medan - More Like The Man of Mundanity... | Attack the Backlog

1 year yang lalu

—

This episode of Attack the Backlog is all about The Dark Pictures Anthology: Man of Medan, a game where you play as a bunch of rich kids trying to find buried treasure because, despite being rich, they’re not rich enough to pay for all the plastic surgery it would take to make Julie go from hideous monster to the madame of meDAMN girl, you fine. But then some dumb pirates, a boring ghost ship, and a thirsty grandma ghost show up to ruin all the fun. Not comedy, nor horror, ensues, or pursues.…
