Matthew Krueger (10051 KP) rated Grim Fandango Remastered in Video Games

Classic: Land of the Dead

Grim Fandango- is a classic game, yes i know im reviewing the remastered, but its a remaster from the ground up. Its still a excellent game.

Grim Fandango - is 1998 adventure game directed by Tim Schafer and developed and published by LucasArts for Microsoft Windows. It is the first adventure game by LucasArts to use 3D computer graphics overlaid on pre-rendered static backgrounds. As with other LucasArts adventure games, the player must converse with characters and examine, collect, and use objects to solve puzzles.

Grim Fandango is set in the Land of the Dead, through which recently departed souls, represented as calaca-like figures, travel before they reach their final destination. The story follows travel agent Manuel "Manny" Calavera as he attempts to save new arrival Mercedes "Meche" Colomar, a virtuous soul, on her journey. The game combines elements of the Aztec belief of afterlife with film noir style, with influences including The Maltese Falcon, On the Waterfront and Casablanca.

Grim Fandango received praise for its art design and direction. It was selected for several awards and is often listed as one of the greatest video games of all time. However, it was a commercial failure and contributed towards LucasArts' decision to end adventure game development and the decline of the adventure game genre.

I remember playing this game on the computer when i was around age 7-9. Its a excellent game.

Chelsea (166 KP) rated Ready Player One (2018) in Movies

I'm not a huge gamer but know enough to have been able to follow this. I went in really not knowing what to expect and was pleasantly surprised! This was an intense movie with a lot of 80s and (obviously) video game references, likable characters, and a nice blend of animation/CGI and real life. Now I've got to get the book!
