Bastion Review

I think I enjoyed my New Game+ more than my original play-through. Rather than the story losing some of its impact, I found it gained something the second time around.

There are other summer of arcade titles? ;)

New Game+ only doubles the longevity for me if it's actually worth playing through again or the experience could be significantly different. But it still beats the snot out of having to start again.

Of all the summer of arcade, this is the one I most want. And its the first one!

Looks awesome! Great read as always Jamin.

Really can't wait to play this, artwork looks great! Nice review Jamin

Cheers Wido!

I'm going to be honest. Jamin... Best review I have read of yours! I really cannot wait to play this game now.

"At the Bastion's shrine you can invoke the wrath of the gods which – depending on which god you choose – gives your enemies certain advantages. You can make them quicker and stronger, give them regenerative powers and ensure they don't drop any health potions. On the flip side, you'll earn more XP and money. It's swings and roundabouts: The more gods you invoke, the higher the leaderboards you'll climb."

Liking this very much! Especially the three challenges, and probably worth ago to finish them for XP, weapons.

New Game+ basically doubles the longevity of any game as a minimum, so I'm looking at that 1200 points tag as quite cheap. I'll pick it up next time I have 1200 points spare.
