 Once upon a time, Konami used to release lots of games, sometimes even ones of slightly experimental nature. So, one day they decided to hit the world with an action game about a protagonist who cannot die while slicing up enemies across destructible levels to some kick-rear end Megadeth soundtrack. Then they realised that the players might die of too much fun, and a contingency plan was put into motion. The plan was successful, in that Neverdead was mostly rated (well) below 7/10, and is currently the 20th worst-rated PS3 action title on GameFAQs. And there's some fierce competition there. 1UP review posted:NeverDead is a game, and it can be completed. Good enough for me!     Still, there are some positives, like nice visual design, and the loud music drowning out the speech and the explosions. Also, it's not Knights Contract. As for the story, it's a dumb action movie plot with a few twists, such a-  OK, I'll shut up. Well then...

Even an immortal man needs a job.  Prologue and Asylum, Part 1 It's refreshing to see a character with a proper fashion sense for once.

Previously, the cutscenes indicated this was the only museum in town. I hope it's not the case.  Museum, Part 2 You want more insufferable characters, you say?

They explode on command. It's a wonderful control arrangement where I hold down R3 to regenerate, then hold R2 or L2 to tear off a limb, then aim the camera down because the throwing arc is too high, then release the button to throw (the actual trajectory may be different from the projection, dead arms bounce poorly), then press it again to detonate.

You have to admit, you can't see screen tearing on a black screen.  Sewers, Part 1 Arcadia is wearing a pair of stockings and a sweater dress to battle. Metal.

HardDiskD posted:I feel like the game would be marginally better if they didn't have ammo for any of the guns, or maybe if it didn't have any guns at all.

This level appears a bit too polished and varied. Was it a demo at some point?  Agency HQ, Part 2 All this may be an elaborate publicity stunt for Nikki.

The whole story has been building up to one Bryce's line.  Demon's Nest, Part 1 Alex, with your skills, you could have been a door-to-door knife salesman.

If you search for "sangria_render_full_resolution.png" you'll find a 15 megabyte hi-res render of Sangria.
