The Backlog Check-in Vol. 427: 3/7/26: Fatal Frame II: Crimson Butterfly Remake Edition

[argyle]

Games added: Dead Island 2, Tomba! 2: The Evil Swine Return Special Edition (I think I got this week before last, but I forgot to mention it)

Last week: Finished nothing, played Dead Island 2

This week: Same

I wasn't expecting much at all from DI2, but I've been very pleasantly surprised. It's a very fun action game that knows what it is. Also, the damage system they have for the zombies is extremely well done. Very gory, but fun-gory. I'm pretty sure this is one that Phase talked up when it came out - wherever you are, man, thanks for another recommend.
