      Christmas!

      By BowserBasher · Posted

      My tradition of watching The Muppets Christmas Carol continues (13 years in a row) after just finishing it just now. Still the best version ever. Christmas Day will be spent with family, presents in the morning, big Christmas dinner, and then nibbles and finger food later in the evening.    Merry Christmas everyone.

      This time last year I sat and played Streets of Rage 4, so it's fitting that I've once again sat and played another scrolling beat em up during the festive season. Sadly, Asterix is nowhere near the quality of that game. I was a big fan of Asterix as a kid. I have fond memories of playing the classic Konami arcade game while on holiday at Blackpool, as well as renting the Asterix books from my local library. I was hoping this game would match the quality of the Konami game but it wasn't even close. The game is a looker, for sure, but the gameplay is really lacking. For one, a lot of the stages go on for far too long. These types of games are best when the levels are short, snappy and varied. The later stages really start taking liberties with how long they are and how many enemies they throw at you on screen. This can be brutal on the hardest difficulty (needed to play through it on this setting for platium) because you can only take a couple of hits and then you are done. No lives and no continues, which means back to the start of the very long level you go. You can switch to the second character to give yourself a second life pool but it's difficult to do when you get swamped by enemies. A lot of the scenery gets repeated in the game, as do some of the bosses. There's a pirate boss named Red Beard which constantly pops up, as does the Roman Centurion. This is baffling because the books have such a rich enemy roster to choose from and yet they felt the need to repeat the same ones over and over again. It's not a bad game, just very boring. If the levels had been shorter, the areas more varied and the bosses changed up a bit then it would have been a far better game. Despite all of this, I still wouldn't mind giving the sequel a whirl to see if any improvements have been made. Playing the game did get me all nostalgic for the franchise and I went searching for the 80s animated movies. My two favourites were Asterix in Britain and Asterix and the Big fight. I found the latter on YouTube (proper UK dub instead of the US one) and I was sat watching it while I was doing my grinding on Various Daylife. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=KQ5uTeuVuiE

      Christmas!

      By Will · Posted

      That sounds brilliant, enjoy! I’ve spent today making a huge amount of stuffing, pigs in blankets and prepping a Turkey for tomorrow’s dinner. We still have a load of wrapping to do but I’d say we’re far more ready than we usually are at this point. We’ve got some oven snacks for dinner tonight so hopefully fairly easy way to finish up the day. My parents are already here until Friday and my sister and her boyfriend come tomorrow for the day.  Thank god I’ve got two weeks of work to recover from it all.

      Should be an interesting one. I'll watch it when it comes to streaming. I refuse to go see Nolan's movies at the cinema as long as he refuses to learn how to mix sound.

      Monster Pile-On is your best friend. Assuming you've been keeping up with monster wrangling, mind you. Failing that, using the Stormlord Sword as an item can take care of those irritating crabs.
