not a great game but its the only basketball

Not recommended Mar 2, 2026

Je ne suis pas une vache à lait. J'ai acheté 2k15, 2k21 et je ne peux plus jouer car ils ont décidés de fermer la partie en ligne (le mode de jeu que j'aime est "my career" qui nécessite de jouer en ligne alors qu'on peut tout à fait jouer en solo). Comme dirait Itinéris ... Pas content !

Games like Dying Light, where nightfall changes the rules

Games like Dying Light are easy to find if you only want parkour or only want zombies. These eight keep the part that matters: a city that becomes a different place after dark.

Games like Portal 2, where one idea carries the whole game

Games like Portal 2 all share one habit: teach a single impossible trick, then spend a campaign breaking it. From rewinding objects through time to Escher geometry that loops back on itself.

Planet Coaster DLC: skip the collection, buy the packs

The Planet Coaster DLC catalogue closed in 2019, so there is no curve left to wait out. Our record shows the collection bundle costs far more than assembling the same packs one by one.

Games like Titanfall 2, for the pilot or for the Titan

Titanfall 2's campaign changed its own rules every mission. Games like Titanfall 2 that keep one part of it — the wall-running, the mech, or a campaign that never settles.

Games like It Takes Two, where the second player is the point

It Takes Two cannot be played alone, and that is the whole design. Games like It Takes Two that give each player a different job — including one that makes do with a single pair of hands.

Games like Frostpunk, where the law book does the damage

Games like Frostpunk for anyone who misses the Book of Laws more than the cold: the sequel's factions, a besieged house, beaver droughts, a drifting ark and the template it came from.
