Arcadegeddon review ign7/31/2023 ![]() ![]() The “man” you’re sticking it to is the FFC, of FunFunCo, a corporate behemoth that has cornered the fun market in the most egregious of ways: with rules and regulations. Everyone talks at you in weird adjectives, urging you to stick it to the man in the most irritating way possible.īut we’re ahead of ourselves here. Fun, of course, is subjective, and your mileage may vary depending on how resistant you are to an overuse of slang written with a grasp of youthful vernacular possibly gleaned by listening to commercial radio and writing down the words that sound made up. It’s a run-and-gun looter-shooter in a colourful world that offers top-notch gunplay and addictive progression, and it’s possibly the most fun I’ve had this year. ![]() It’s not a game about story – although it has one. I begin this way because Arcadegeddon from Illfonic has dropped squarely into the latter category, and I can’t leave it alone. Something that’s just unequivocally fun remains, a series of much smaller bangs that don’t let up. Story might pack a big bang, but the after effects soon fade. It’s the Destiny 2’s and Monster Hunter Rise’s that hold my attention long-term. Story has its place, and a lot of the time it’s important, but it’s not the story games I keep coming back to. I’ll be the first up the hill waving the flag for complex story in games, don’t get me wrong, but I’ll probably have no idea what to say when I get there. There’s a lot to be said for good old fashioned fun and frolics. ![]()
