as an enthusiast for boomer shooters I'm still struck by what a stunning, transfixing goddamn MESS Shogo is. like the game isn't Good, don't get me wrong, the mixture of early weeb with 90s shooter design sensibilities do NOT mesh well in the slightest, and the attempts at 'humor' have aged like a fine cheese, but while I fault its execution severely I can't quite fault its ambitions. and it was the game that gave us the engine that gave us No One Lives Forever, which owns bones.

@ElectricKeet I would probably like Tron 2.0 more if its bizarre momentum physics didn't make me die on staircases so often.

@hystericempress The whole fall damage thing in that game was bullshit. Especially for a User.
