Bright Memory: Infinite. Insane Action

Posted on by X35 Earthwalker
X35 Earthwalker Bright Memory Infinite

Bright Memory: Infinite is a fantastic game. X35 Earthwalker declares that right of the bat. Matter of fact we won’t make you wait. It’s a 10/10 under one condition. The fact that it’s got one developer! Many know by now that Bright Memory: Infinite was developed by one guy. The developer FYQD-Studio. For one person, yes, Bright Memory: Infinite is easily 10/10. bigger developer groups have made games not as good as Bright Memory: Infinite. We just wanted to do a quick G-Blog out of respect for this game. Let’s take a look.

X35 Earthwalker always was interested in Bright Memory: Infinite. X35 played the platinum version of Bright Memory: Infinite. This game is all about action. Players control Shelia, who wields multiple guns and a sword. On top of that she has special tech that allows control over her enemies. For example you can pull enemies towards you and have them stuck in the air in slow motion for you to finish off or blast away. You can do a repelling blast also. Your sword allows for quick and strong slices to destroy foes. Let’s get more into it.

X35 Earthwalker Bright Memory Infinite

Bright Memory: Infinite has combos. You can do a sliding rising slice to launch enemies into the air for you to dice them up before they hit the ground. Unlock skills for more abilities like charging up your blade to release a flying slash attack. Leap into the air to do a powerful electric charged downwards strike. Charge up your fist for a shocking electric punch. Upgrade that same skill for the ultimate power as it becomes a literal flaming explosive punch that one shots everything except big bosses. That fire punch blasts through shields as well. 

The gun play in Bright Memory: Infinite is fantastic. Hit registration is clean allowing for accurate shots and quick dealing with enemies. There’s the assault rifle, shotgun, automatic pistol and sniper rifle. A weapon for all situations. Each gun has alternate fire modes which are all powerful. Assault rifle has tracking mini missiles, Shotgun has incendiary rounds, Automatic pistol has a massive explosive shot and sniper rifle has sticky bombs. Again, more layers to the combat. Some enemies truly get destroyed by certain weapons. For example, even big bosses get stunned and interrupted by the explosive pistol bomb shot.

X35 Earthwalker Bright Memory Infinite

Some dumb reviewers wanted to deduct marks from Bright Memory: Infinite because of how short the game is and how simple the story is or lack thereof. Well of course it’s going to be a short game without an expansive story. Bright Memory: Infinite wasn’t made by 343 industries or Fromsoftware. It’s made by ONE GUY. Bright Memory: Infinite obviously took him a very long time. Of course it’s not going to be a massive game with tons of deep lore. Review and judge games taking into consideration what the game is. Context matters. 

Bright Memory: Infinite isn’t all action as there is a stealth section because your equipment stopped working thanks to the anomaly. You find a nearby lethal weapon and get to work sneaking past enemies soldiers and assassinate whoever you please. There’s also a part where you get support with a vehicle. You have a drive sequence with a powerful rocket launcher to take out enemy vehicles and escape a collapsing cave. Shelia also has excellent mobility. she can double jump, evade dash and even run along walls. Again, it’s all action. You can time your block to help stagger enemies and even reflect certain projectiles back at opponents. For example you can reflect shotgun fire and flaming arrows back at enemies.

Overall Bright Memory: Infinite is a fantastic Xbox exclusive game. Bright Memory: Infinite Platinum Edition shines best off course on the Xbox Series X. There’s the option to play in either first or third person mode. There’s different skins for Shelia as well from casual clothes to her default combat gear. Bright Memory: Infinite especially with the affordable price is worth playing even today. No regrets over here. The developer FYQD-Studio did a fantastic top tier job. We at X35 Earthwalker look forward to what’s next for this game and the developer. Now Bright Memory: Infinite may be fantastic but not on the same level as… the ‘Earth Walk!’

Another Crab’s Treasure. A Crab’s Life

Posted on by X35 Earthwalker
X35 Earthwalker Another Crabs Treasure

Another Crab’s Treasure is an action adventure game developed and published by ‘Aggro Crab‘. Another Crab’s Treasure is said to be coming out the 25th of April 2024 on the Xbox Series X, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, PS5, PS4 and PC. X35 Earthwalker can confirm that crabs are tasty.  Another Crab’s Treasure is making the crustacean the main star here. Let’s take a look.

Another Crab’s Treasure has an understandable story. Players control Kril the crab… a hermit crab. Basically someone took Kril’s shell and sold it most likely. Or he was behind on rent and it got repossessed. To a hermit crab, their shell is literally their home. It’s that important. So Kril can’t just get it back. He has to buy it back. Life’s a hoe like that sometimes. Buying back your repossessed shell isn’t cheap. So the only logical thing to do is embark on an epic quest to recover treasure which can be used to get the shell back.

X35 Earthwalker Another Crabs Treasure

So Kril arms himself and gets to work. You must battle and fight your way through. dodge attacks, time your strikes and survive. Keil isn’t the only one looking for treasure. The ocean is a dangerous place. Predators exist after all. Besides, there’s bigger things happening in the ocean. The ocean is polluted. Kril may be the one to learn the dark secret behind the pollution of the ocean… no, we won’t assume it’s the works of man. After all it could be ocean denizens with a crab in a bucket mentality.

A hermit crab isn’t strong so Kril will need protection, especially since he has no shell anymore. Players must find trash which can be used as a shell instead to help tank blows from enemies. So crab a food tin, box or whatever… then stick it on you. You Ian;’t done now. Trash in the ocean can be used for more things including weapons… maybe a firearm. Don’t forget about the solution though. Trash ain’t clean. Gunk is here and we aren’t talking about that great game called The Gunk.

X35 Earthwalker Another Crabs Treasure

We checked out some Another Crab’s Treasure gameplay and it’s not really what we expected. There’s more to the combat. You’ll get the chance to learn what’s called umami techniques from the other ocean dwellers. These are strong attacks that can change the battle. For example using a bobbit worm to trap enemies or even a mantis shrimp punch. Now if you didn’t tell from the gameplay, Another Crab’s Treasure is described similar to a soulslike. So expect some difficulty. There’s assist options for players if they want to make the game easier but the same options can be used to make the game harder.

Overall Another Crab’s Treasure looks like a good game. The graphic style works for a game like this which has some comedy to it. It’s a more casual and fun atmosphere instead of everything being dead and dark. There’s jokes and some stuff to keep things light but beware… the game is said to be a challenge for sure. We doubt it though. We liking the different characters, their accents and the different foes. This just might be a fun game. The seaweed looking sort of suspicious though. The developers ‘Aggro Crab’ have done a very good job so far. We at X35 Earthwalker will have to keep an eye open for this game. Now Another Crab’s Treasure may have a whole ocean but it’s still too small for… the ‘Earth Walk!’

Teared. Get the knife?

Posted on by X35 Earthwalker
X35 Earthwalker Teared

Teared is an action platformer arcade style game developed by ‘Juanmod‘ and published by ‘Jandusoft‘. Teared is said to be coming out in the first quarter of 2024 on the Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, PS5, PS4 and pc. X35 Earthwalker has played so many games and recognises many factors. Teared wants to bring some familiar arcade action. Let’s take a look.

Teared is all about the action and less of the story… just like old school games. Players control a hero apparently who is on a journey and will face all kinds of threats and foes. The trailer makes it clear that players must get the knife. Seriously, Teared reminds us of Ghost ‘N Goblins. Using the daggers. Games like this can go in real hard when done right.

X35 Earthwalker Teared

In basic arcade style, Teared has 9 levels and we hear there are 2 bonus stages as well. There’s also bosses. Said to be colossal. There’s also supposed to be a range of enemies to face like spiders, even dragons, cyclops, skeletons and more. Teared has room for precision with your attacks. Players might have to aim for some spots.

Apparently there’s 3 weapons that you have to find. Teared states that these three weapons are distinct, providing their own advantages. We can easily see how to make multiple distinct weapons in a game like this. Based on the visual style and the animations, we don’t expect much from the bosses… hopefully this games proves us wrong.

X35 Earthwalker Teared

We checked out some Teared gameplay and it’s what we expected. Teared is all about the action. You jump in and start throwing daggers at foes while progressing to the right. As a platformer there’s jumps, gaps, water, magma, elevation, bridges and more. There’s things or should we say monsters active in the background. 

Overall Teared seems like an alright game. At the base and core this is a straight up arcade style get your score for your actions. It’s combat and killing foes. See a variety of levels and beat the game. Visually and animation wise Teared doesn’t look that good. So what matters here is how good the core is. The developers ‘Juanmod’ have done an alright job so far. We at X35 Earthwalker like to see honest games do well. Now Teared may have arcade action but it’s not on the level of… the ‘Earth Walk!’

Predecessor. Next Gen MOBA

Posted on by X35 Earthwalker
X35 Earthwalker Predecessor

Predecessor is a new Multiplayer Online Battle Arena game developed and published by ‘Omeda Studios‘. Predecessor is said to be coming out the 28th of March 2024 on the Xbox Series X, PS5, PS4 and PC. X35 Earthwalker is the leading expert in game design and knows what MOBA need to get right. Predecessor is not messing around when it comes to the action. Let’s take a look.

Predecessor isn’t just a Multiplayer Online Battle Arena (MOBA). It’s called a Next Generation MOBA. Just one look at Predecessor and you can see that it is. Predecessor will obviously remind players of other famous games in the same genre. The two are clearly Paladins and Overwatch. Both are great games. X35 Earthwalker prefers Paladins. Predecessor so far looks like it’s easily going to better and bigger than both of these. Next Generation doesn’t just mean visually better but also can mean mechanics and depth. Predecessor isn’t playing around here.

X35 Earthwalker Predecessor

Predecessor has numerous characters. We mean over 30 characters and these lads and ladies have loads of variety and distinct from each other. We love that. Just taking a look at the cast and you can probably see them being in different games and universes. We got Narbash who looks like a tribal nature loving ork. Gadget who is all about tech with a tech suit and gadgets. Zarus looks like a reptile tribe warrior who while old school living but powerful weapons. Sparrow is the ranger, so all about bows and arrows… let those arrows fly. Iggy & Scorch are the heroic pair. One is the small mini goblins looking thing while the other is almost like a discount two legged dragon who love fire. Riktor looks like a monster that got infused with technology like an experiment gone wrong. Sevarog looks like a dark reaper of souls from Destiny or something like that. A monster for sure. There’s much more and they look from cool to straight awesome. Also the female characters look strong and beautiful. Honestly the ladies look cool and range from friendly humble looking to, ascended dangerous or evil to rocking and cool. All character design overall is fantastic.

X35 Earthwalker Predecessor

There’s tons of abilities in Predecessor. Each character has passive, basic, alternate, primary, secondary and ultimate ability. This alone is bigger than other MOBA games. 6 abilities per character opens up variety, mechanics, combos and different situations. For example let’s look at Sevarog. Passive is ‘Reaper of Souls’ which means you gain a soul when killing with an ability. Souls grant more health and siphon damage. Basic is ‘Crush’ which is a simple melee hit. Alternate is ‘Phantom Rush’ which makes you dash forwards and through enemies. Primary is ‘siphon’ which harms all enemies in front of you with a hand and then heals Sevarog. Secondary is ‘Subjugate’ which calls down a dark energy attack which roots and later slows foes. Ultimate is ‘Colossal Blow’ which is a big swing on enemies and sending them flying. So the goal with Sevarog is to get in close and smash enemies, fish off with preferably siphon to gain health, reap souls and get more health. If team weakens a group then Colossal Blow will get a big multi kill and lots of sounds. Become super tanky and trap foes with Subjugate. Remember this is just one character with 6 abilities. There’s over 30 characters in Predecessor.

X35 Earthwalker Predecessor

The main goal here in Predecessor is to complete objectives which gets you gold. So killing minions, enemy heroes and off course towers. Use gold to buy items that affect what your heroes can do. This includes going invisible, teleport and even freeze time. Items also can improve hero attributes like health, power and speed. So players are rewarded for playing well and being active. Even minion hunting matters and allows for upgrades. This reminds us of the system in Paladins. Thee upgrades truly matter and make a difference. This off course ends to more synergies with characters and items ands then the whole team for what might lead to broken stuff.  

We checked out some Predecessor gameplay and it’s what we expected. We like how the game looks graphically. Obviously more maps will been the way and all the characters will be up and ready. Over time you know more characters will be introduced. We like how some of these attacks really look. A few attacks do look lack luster though like Line Temp for Shinbi. Games like this are incredibly hard to do right, specially when int come to balancing. they can’t be quick to do patches yet. Nergs are better to do than buffs and this needs to be done carefully and with proper data. 30+ characters doing their own thing and effects is going to be tough. Especially when counters are a factor too. We look forward to seeing how all this is handled. The 1v1s on Offlanes, the chaos open the Midlanes and the fights for camps in the Jungle.  

Overall Predecessor looks fantastic. Definitely looking Next Gen and has the mechanics expected of something Next Generation. The graphics and visuals are top tier and it shows that serious work went into this game. The special effects and the attacks are worth having a viewing gallery off. The amount of abilities and mechanics, with the combinations of match factors allows for a lot to happen and variety in the game. The developers ‘Omeda studios’ have done a fantastic job so far. We at X35 Earthwalker are excited to see what this game truly brings. Now Predecessor may be Next Gen but it’s still many leagues behind… the ‘Earth Walk!’

Sonzai. Kumotoshi secrets

Posted on by X35 Earthwalker
X35 Earthwalker Sonzai Gaming Blog

Sonzai is a 2D action brawler platformer Role Playing game developed by ‘2 Odd Diodes’ and published by ‘Top Hate studios‘. Sonzai is said to be coming out the 29th of March 2024 on the Xbox Series X, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, Mac, Linux, PS5, PS4 and PC. X35 Earthwalker has to be in the mood for mysteries.  Sonzai apparently has some mysteries going on. Let’s take a look. 

X35 Earthwalker Sonzai Gaming Blog

Keeping things simple here. Sonzai takes place in Kumotoshi. Kumotoshi is a magical town. A place that numerous young mages go to. Other for a big adventure, to learn, opportunities, whatever. It’s nice too but the outsides are not so nice. Dangerous even. We hear there those places are infused with magical energy. Players control a new student who just showed up in town.

Sonzai is going to be a magical brawling adventure. There will be new people to meet and friends to make… hopefully. What’s more certain though is that Kumotoshi has mysteries and secrets confirmed. What’s not so secret is that there’s a bunch of people and Sonzai has placed good emphasis and focus on the relationships you build with characters. Each character is said to have their own lives and stories. Hopefully that will be clear and strong in the game.

X35 Earthwalker Sonzai Gaming Blog

Basically Sonzai has made it so that your relationships affect both “the scope of the player’s skill” and even the story itself. So yeah, get more powerful through those relationships. Some characters like to see a new person in town while others don’t. Keep that in mind. All this is happening while you still got to handle your high school life here at Kumotoshi. We trust that the ,ore of this magical place is deep enough. 

The biggest factor has to be the combat. It’s combo based. Really about the combos. We hear there’s lots of customisation when it comes to the combat. There’s runes and modules. Active runes are the big magical attacks to use against foes. Passive runes grant sweet buffs if you meet the conditions. Modules are what causes the modifiers. Get creative with them to adjust your loadout. We see some crazy combo potential from staying airborne, to dashing around to pulling enemies in, to melee and to ranged. Things looking real nice.

X35 Earthwalker Sonzai Gaming Blog

We checked out some Sonzai gameplay and it’s not what we expected. Let’s start with the visuals. The graphics style we don’t like at all but we see the work that goes into it. This style take a lot of effort to pull off. It’s described as inky minimalist with “precisely choreographed animations”. All hand drawn. Respect the work that went into it. We do, even though we don’t like it. It’s apparently quite a big world with different locations that have their own main stand out. Like an underground civilisation, what looks like a  mystical forest. There’s even a burning town.

Overall Sonzai is looking like an excellent game. Most likely top tier. X35 Earthwalker always respects the hard work that goes into these things. So the developers has to prove us right concerning this respect. Don’t fail us. From the art style, to the mechanics, to the combat. This does look real deep for sure. The developers ‘2 Odd Diodes’ have done an excellent job so far. We at X35 Earthwalker will keep our eyes open for this game. Now Sonzai may have deep customisable combat but it’s far too basic in the eyes of… the ‘Earth Walk!’

Slave Zero X. Biopunk world

Posted on by X35 Earthwalker
X35 Earthwalker Slave Zero X

Slave Zero X is an action hack and slash game developed by ‘Poppy Works‘ and published by ‘Ziggurat‘. Slave Zero X is said to be coming out the 21st of February 2024 on the Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, PS5, PS4 and pc. X35 Earthwalker likes to give some smaller games a chance. Slave Zero X is going for action. Let’s take a look.

X35 Earthwalker Slave Zero X

Slave Zero X is set in a biopunk world. It’s Megacity S1-9. The sovereign khan is ruling out here with an iron and fleshy fist. Slave Zero X takes place 4 year prior to the events in the original story. Slave Zero X has basically living machines called slaves. These slaves are like the newest weapons and tools of war. The main star though is here making his moves. A warrior who is out to get the sovereign khan.

This warrior is the player. He’s originally not alone. There was a group of warriors who are called the guardians. They want to stop the slaves and put an end to the chaos. One of them… you know who, decides to merge with a stolen slave unit prototype. The player, Shou becomes this horrifying looking mecha who’s mission is to kill this evil ruler.

X35 Earthwalker Slave Zero X

Slave Zero X is taking a slightly different approach as it’s 2.5D. So you can turn down corners and see the world rotate because of it. There’s movements in the fore and background like enemies surrounding you. This is a cool elements and can make combat seem more epic, packed and constant. Hopefully it’s used more frequently and not just for a few moments. 

Slave Zero X is hack and slash so you know what to expect. Get in there and start cutting everything that comes against you. Fight on the ground and in the air. come down with a strike and keep it going. Use combos to slay with lethal and style and if you’re really good then string together combos for maximum hacking and slashing.

X35 Earthwalker Slave Zero X

We checked out some Slave Zero X gameplay and it’s what we expected. The graphical style isn’t what we wanted but it’s chosen. The action is fast but also moon jumpy. More old school, classic style but cleaner thanks to modern times and designs. You get what it says on the front of the tin. Hack and slash.

Overall Slave Zero X looks like an alright game. If you want action then Slave Zero X will give you action. We have a few questions though but they can wait. We have seen some enemy variety and it does give the signs that the game will get very difficult. One of those brutal difficulty settings games. As if you select the hardest one and the game becomes unfair. The developers ‘Poppy works’ have done a good job so far. We at X35 Earthwalker aren’t looking forward to this game but the fans of the original story definitely are. Now Slave Zero X may have living machines but they don’t make the cut with… the ‘Earth Walk!’

Palworld. Next Gen For Sure

Posted on by X35 Earthwalker
X35 Earthwalker Palworld

Palworld is a Palworld is a creature collector open world action game developed and published by ‘Pocketpair‘. Palworld early access is said to come out the 19th of January 2024 on Xbox Series X, Xbox One and pc. Palworld is another big Xbox exclusive game as no word at all concerning Nintendo and PlayStation. X35 Earthwalker truly enjoys good creature capture games like this and knows what makes them good. Palworld is truly getting attention and standing out. Let’s take a look.

X35 Earthwalker Palworld

Palworld is set in a world where creatures called ‘Pals’ exist alongside humans. Players must capture them to use them for their goals. The most obvious one is off course battling. Use pals to help you take down other pals and capture them too. It’s a creature capture game. So if you like Cassette Beasts and pokemon then Palworld should be your thing as well. Cassette Beasts is a fantastic game, 10/10. Pokemon is a legendary thing that everyone knows. Palworld instantly grabs your attention visually. There’s more to it though.

X35 Earthwalker Palworld

Palworld has a lot going on. For example there’s poachers out here who are making some Pals endangered. You can either be like them or protect pals from them. Some pals might need help from other bigger pals. We like games with their own food chain systems and ecosystems going on. Some pals will eat other ones too. Such is nature. Some Pals have certain skills or are naturally good at certain things and so you want them for that purpose. After all one of the goals of Palworld is to build a base. Some pals are good at watering crops or even harvesting them. Some are great at sowing seeds. Some pals got hands and are strong that they can help with construction and hammer things down. No pal is useless. 

X35 Earthwalker Palworld

We are of course did not mention the biggest thing about Palworld as it’s obvious. The player/trainer fights alongside the pals. Literally. This ain’t no stand back and watch with pokemon and Digimon but also not as powerful as Cassette Beasts. Players can have bows, throwable and even guns to attack and take down pals. Grab your assault rifles and fire away while your pal gets in there and fights. You must also dodge attacks from pals or you will go down. Work together with them. You can even hold on to a flying pal and take to the skies. Ride a water pal and cross the seas. You get the idea.

X35 Earthwalker Palworld

This game, Palworld looks the part. Palworld looks like how pokemon should look. Palworld has a beautiful world that has some realistic elements to it but the pals gives off fortnite style looks. It looks amazing. The idea of fighting with your pals is excellent and something wanted for years. They combined it all with base building, skills, crafting and adventure. This is a fantastic recipe. Now off course mean poachers aside, games like this have their evil organisations or heartless group who will use Pals for their own goals for evil or whatever. They will have to show up. It’s clear that something deeper is going on in the Palworld world… yeah. We want to see more.

Now yes, Palworld is also multiplayer. Pvp and increased amount of players will come later. Read this and tell us what you think, “Work together with fellow players for shared adventures in an open-world setting. Multiplayer not only allows for cooperation but also conflict, enabling players to attack one another, steal Pals, and even steal items. Players can engage in Pal battles, pitting their Pals against each other in combat.” This is the scary part. You might get attacked and robbed by others. So prepare for some salty videos and complaints. It will make a difference to know how this mechanic actually works. 

X35 Earthwalker Palworld

We checked out some Palworld gameplay and it’s what we expected. We truly like that there’s some more mature themes here. Pals can die. Not feint but actually die. You must remember to feed your working pals or they will die. Pals will also give their life for you. Players may have to sacrifice a pal to save themselves. A tough choice maybe. What’s also strange is we saw a fox heating a pot with a chicken pal sitting in it. Chicken soup anyone? Pals can breed. The baby will inherit the characteristics of the parents. This means there’s skill in being a breeder. A wise player will use the right rare pals to make superior children. Time to get creative. Remember that we mentioned poachers? Well some endangers pals are in wildlife sanctuaries. You can try to sneak in to steal them… just don’t get caught.

Overall Palworld looks like a fantastic game already. The early access is going to be crazy and loaded. The action and weapons are great, the visuals are fantastic and it’s open world, which means there’s lots to explore and see. Cross seas, soar through the skies and crush foes. There’s going to be lots to do. Especially when you have to be aware of aggressive players who want your goods. The developers ‘Pockerpair’ have done a fantastic job so far. We at X35 Earthwalker are definitely looking forward to this game. A new adventure for sure. Now Palworld may have an open world with new creatures but it’s all far beneath… the ‘Earth Walk!’

Earth Defence Force 2025. Immense Fun

Posted on by X35 Earthwalker
X35 Earthwalker Earth Defence Force 2025

X35 Earthwalker has played so many games over his gaming adventures and some games clearly try to stand out with a certain factor or whatever. What many inferior reviewers and lower intelligence youtubers/streamers fail to understand when reviewing games, is the purpose of games in the first place. Entertainment. Games are suppose to entertain the players. It’s suppose to be fun. Fun sums up Earth Defence Force 2025. Let’s take a look.

Earth Defence Force 2025 is pretty much the embodiment of fun. This game is so silly and stupid in many good ways. It is clearly aware of that but its main focus and goal is fun. Plain and simple. That’s why Earth Defence Force 2025 is better than many games out today,. even the newer and far shinier games. Earth Defence Force 2025 hasn’t got great graphics or animations. It’s far from the most polished game out there even at its time. That’s not always what matters though. Lethal company went viral and so many played it and had so much fun and that game looks bad on purpose. Earth Defence Force 2025 is like this too.

X35 Earthwalker Earth Defence Force 2025

The simple story of Earth Defence Force 2025 is that there’s giant insects attacking the citizens, army and the world basically and off course they are mainly underground but come up to attack… just like the Locusts of Gears of War. The EDF (Earth Defence Force) are out here to combat and eliminate the insects. Off course, they are losing. It’s giant insects after all. Insects breed and reproduce like crazy. Giant ants are here. Ask yourself, “How many ants are in the world?” Now you can see the problem. 

There’s giant ants, jumping spiders, orb web slinging spiders, wasps and giant red ants. Have fun with that… and you will. On top of that, there’s an old alien enemy that’s come back too. The Ravagers. So expect flying robots, giant cannon blasting hectors and transport ships who drop of giant insects. Yes, the ravagers are using the giant insects. We have written and spoken about these enemies before so read them to know more. We will say that the enemies add to the fun. Hectors with the giant blasters have launched players far into the sky and far away, to then land, receive no fall damage and get back up and run into the fight screaming at the top of their lungs. It’s hilarious. More funny thanks to the rag doll physics.

Giant red ants chase you down to grab you and fling you around in its jaws. Wasps fire their stingers at you from the air, jumping spiders will annoy you the most. Enemies even will flank you and go around to split your attention. Don’t fear though as the EDF has the tools to fight back… believe us, they do. Let’s talk about the most fun thing in the game… all the weapons. There’s soooooooooooooo many weapons. More than you know. Been playing for a long time and semi-recently got an xbox achievement stating I got 50% of the weapons. What?! Only 50%?! Yeah. There’s more I haven’t unlocked and seen yet. Pay attention.     

There’s weapons for everything and Earth Defence Force 2025 doesn’t believe in being realistic. If Japan had these weapons in real life they would easily be the world power no contest. It’s what Japan wish they had. There’s assault rifles and many versions of them. There’s machine guns, machine guns with bouncy bullets, machine guns that shoot lasers. Flamethrowers have crazy reach and truly fry things. There’s shotguns of different pellet amounts and spreads. Sniper rifles of different types and ranges. Grenade launchers. Grenades. Lasers. Decoys, anti-air set ups, sentry weapons, mines and traps. Electric firing weapons, alien blasters, acid sprayers.

What? You thought we were done? Nope. There’s the crazy big powerful weapons that the Fencers have. Yeah, what we mentioned before was weapons mainly for the Rangers and a few for Wing divers. The wing divers, fencers and air raiders have a whole bunch of their own weapons. Fencers have giant hammers that have big aoe. They have chain guns which are loaded with so much ammo. Also Fencers can dual wield. So that’s two chain guns spraying down an entire area. Mortar launchers which fire big mortar shots that destroy all buildings and foes. they have shields to block damage with one hand and shoot giant harpoon like spear blasters with the other hand. Wing divers have the sci fi weapons and alien tech stuff, so expect laser lances, laser shotgun repeaters, homing blasters, electric snipers, super big bomb blast and more.

Air raiders are the most unique. Yes they are the support class who can shield allies and vehicles, repair vehicles, set up traps, anti-air, turrets, bunkers and even guide missiles from allies. They also call in powerful attacks like air strikes, salvos from a navy ship, satellite lasers, bombing runs and what feels like an artillery nuke. Kill enough foes to charge up these abilities and then use them on an army of enemies and watch them get nuked. But wait… there’s more. Air Raiders can call in vehicles. They can call in bikes, mobile missile launchers, tanks, mechs, super tanks and even helicopters. Yes, and there’s multiple variations to them. The vehicles do get crazy. We unlocked a literal super tank with ridiculous firepower, tons of armour and multiple weapons. This game is crazy.

Like we said, this game is crazy fun. You can literally destroy all the buildings as long as the retiarius spider hasn’t got web on it. It’s so much fun to demolish everything in sight in the name of defending the earth from giant insects and aliens. You might accidentally blow up your team mates and send them flying too. It has happened before. We forgot to mention that Earth Defence Force 2025 is multiplayer. 2 players for local co-op but 4 for online. It’s crazy good fun. Inferno difficulty is too hard for the most part unless you have the right character class and specific weapons to combat the threat. Hardest difficulty though is a good match overall.

Overall Earth Defence Force 2025 is just an excellent game and one of the best games ever. It’s stereotypical in a funny way with the characters speaking and even the soldier singing an encouraging patriotic song to keep the spirits high. The combat is over the top and the enemies are not scary but a giant problem which needs giant weapons. It makes sense and still brings entertainment to this day. X35 Earthwalker will continue two face giant foes. Earth Defence Force 2025 is a must try even by todays gaming standards.

Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden. Spooky love?

Posted on by X35 Earthwalker
X35 Earthwalker Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden

Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden is an action role playing game developed by ‘Don’t Nod‘ and published by ‘Focus entertainment‘. Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden is said to be coming out February 13th 2024 on the Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, PS5 and pc. X35 Earthwalker sees some interesting factors of this game already. Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden clearly wants to to make it a journey. Let’s take a look.

Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden is set in 1695… in New Eden. The stars of this game are Antea Duarte and Red mac Raith. They are lovers but more than that, they are also banishers. Banishers are basically ghost hunters. They take a vow to protect the living from the dead. More specifically specters and ghosts. They were busting ghosts real good… until the last mission.

Antea got hurt… real bad. Described as fatally wounded. She also became a spirit… and she hates spirits… well the mean ones. Now they are both in North America, in the haunted wilds. They are searching for a way to free Antea from her horrible situation. Desperate people right here and understandable. Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden will have players go on a journey.

So yeah, Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden is clearly a supernatural world. It’s a world that’s full of wandering souls, ancient things and off course supernatural creatures. Ghosts are doing their thing. Casper too… maybe. You arrive in New Eden and interact with the people who live there. You solve haunted ghost cases.

The best part? Fighting these ghosts. It’s the main thing we currently care about. It’s like a hybrid style. Red has his arsenal of weapons while Antea has spiritual powers and abilities. We like this hybrid combat. there’s room for creativity in this style. Hopefully they explore that. You must defeat the souls/specters/ghosts and banish them. Banishers will not tolerate the dead tormenting the living.

We checked out some Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden gameplay and it’s mostly what we expected. There’s going to be skill based combat. Parries and timing of actions are a thing for sure. We hope to see actual team work between the two. Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden does have a your decision affects the story and the lives of the people factor. Readers should know how X35 Earthwalker feels about this mechanic by now. Hard to do and harder to do it right. We hope they nailed this. Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden wants there to be a conflict for players. Between deciding to keep your vow or break some rules to save your love. 

Overall Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden looks like an excellent game easily. Their story is there. The stakes are there. It will be easy to hit the emotions of players with this set up. There’s said to be challenging decisions that will impact your story (we will see). Graphics look excellent and the creativity of the spirits and ghosts are so far looking good so far. We got torches and even guns. Things to look forward too. We hope to learn more. The developers ‘Don’t Nod’ have done an excellent job so far. We at X35 Earthwalker will keep an eye out for this game.

Mars 2120. Sci-fi Metroidvania

X35 Earthwalker Mars 2120

 

Mars 2120 is a sci-fi metroidvania game developed and published by ‘qubyte interactive‘. Mars 2120 is said to be coming out the 28th of March 2024 on the Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, PS5, PS4 and pc. X35 Earthwalker is the master of metroidvania games. Mars 2120 will need to make a strong impression. Let’s take a look.

Mars 2120 is off course set in the future. Basically the first Mars colony has gotten itself into some trouble. It needs help and off course we need to know what happened and what’s going on currently. This is where the player comes in. Players control Sargeant Anna Charlotte, also known as “thirteen”. You lead a team of elite space marines. No not the ultra marines… wrong dudes.

Now obviously things go wrong and you get separated. Otherwise it wouldn’t be this type of game now would it. Mars 2120 wants to really be the ones to nail the whole combat thing. There’s a lot of combat layers here. Mars 2120 has loads of melee combat. There’s even combos. skilled players can juggle enemies and even string things together for great control over the battle and big damage. combat slide, lunge, strike and more… maybe take it to the air.

On top of that are the elements. Some special abilities are tied to elements like fire, electricity and ice. Yeah we see the connections here. If it isn’t obvious by now then let us explain. It’s clear that Mars 2120 has been inspires by other games. Metroid prime clearly and castlevania: symphony of the night (the best castlevania game). Two top tier games. Getting ideas and inspiration from them can easily work out well. so about those elements. Metroid Prime had the same thing. Wave beam (electricity), ice beam (ice obviously) and plasma beam (fire). Let’s see how Mars 2120 will handle all this.

We checked out some Mars 2120 gameplay and it’s not exactly what we expected. The game visually looks better than expected too. That’s great. The animations are very good. Not the highest levels but very good and gets the job done. The elements look weak here. They need to be applied more clearly and more powerfully. The special abilities are going to mix things up but we hope the variety and the elements of them are epic. It’s a 2024 game after all, we expect bigger things than the past. Do your best game. There are also bosses off course and some look great while others looked kind of generic.

Overall Mars 2120 looks like it’s going to be a great game. We can’t give it the excellent rating as we have some real questions concerning the story and the secrets of mars and the first colony. Combat and cool enemies are one thing… a big thing still. We like the variety of the levels and the environment designs. We can see how Mars 2120 can be top stuff. The developers ‘qubyte interactive‘ have done a great job so far. We at X35 Earthwalker will keep an ear open for this game. Now Mars 2120 may have serious combat but it all looks plain when compared to… the ‘Earth Walk!’
