Top 10 Best Title Themes In Videogames

Many games these days try to skip out on title screens, or keep them away from the game as much as possible. I understand game designer's reasons behind this. Attention spans are shortening and so it's best to get to the game as quickly as possible without worrying about music or fancy graphics. Games such as Dark Souls just have an almost blank void when you boot it up, and Antichamber didn't even have a title screen at all.

RETROSPECTIVE: 'The Stanley Parable'


Max took a look at the recent releases and despaired. There wasn't a single horror title out there, let alone a single interesting looking title. It seemed developers were holding out until November to release their massive Triple A titles like Fallout 4, Battlefront, and Just Cause 3 in time for Christmas. So he decided to look back at The Stanley Parable instead.

REVIEW: 'The Beginner's Guide'


Go and play this game.

I want to leave my review there. It's a cheap, low-spec game available on Steam. It plays on PC, MAC, and Linux systems. It uses a modified yet simple version of the Source Engine. It's about 80 mins long. You can always claim a refund afterwards thanks to Steam's new service.

REVIEW: 'Undertale'


In my Psychonauts retrospective, I lamented on the absence of comedy games. Aside from The Stanley Parable, Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon, and Portal 2 - I cannot name a comedy game made in the past 5 years. There's the LEGO games I suppose, but now they've become an entity unto themselves with the whole Dimensions thing. I would've reviewed it, but I don't have a PS4 or all the money in the world to actually buy Dimensions.
