You know how lazy it is when game writers reviewing Lara Croft whine about how bad the last few games are? It's just as lazy at this point to open by complaining about how bad or boring Two Worlds was. It had a bad port to consoles. The implementation on all platforms was kind of janky. The game itself was really surprisingly good.
The shocking part is that it's another Treasure game, and was released WELL BEFORE Ikaruga. Ikargua was a shmup that ripped off the polarity switching elements from Silhouette Mirage, which was a platforming game.
This is just taking it back to the roots. I guess they really do know nothing about games, though that's pretty sad. I wonder if they have also failed to play Radiant Silvergun. For a group that generally has such regard for Gunstar Heroes, they haven't kept up with the times well.
