  • Really enjoyed Portal 1, and finished the co-op mode in Portal 2 today, so still got the single-player mode in Portal 2 to start on another day. I don’t think I’ve ever actually played a multiplayer game before that required co-operation; it was things like Mario Odyssey or Kirby Forgotten Land where you can almost get through it all without the other player doing anything at all.

    It’s quite satisfying that I’ve got a bit stuck on some of the puzzles, but they are all still solvable without a guide. I think I’ve got into a habit in recent years of looking up a guide when I get stuck on a certain part of the game, but with Portal I really wanted to work it out on my own so didn’t actually have a desire to look up the solution.











  • When I first saw MK World, I thought, “it’s lucky I didn’t get MK8 so I can get this instead”, but then the main difference (besides tracks) was the open world thing, which doesn’t look that appealing to me.

    I’ll say again how similar it is to MK on the Gamecube. Playing (a) SNES/GBA MK, (b) N64 MK, and © GC MK, they’ve three very distinctive driving feels, but with MK8, I can pick it up and all the muscle memory is there despite not playing MK for 20 years (although I haven’t tried 200cc yet). It’s already a near-perfect kart game, so there’s not much they can do to improve it.
