Over the years, the "Metroidvania" genre has become quite saturated. However, Axiom Verge always stood out in my opinion, not the least for leaning much more heavily towards Metroid rather than -vania. The first standout moment of the game for me was reaching the upper Kur area - what better way to introduce an "outside" area of the map than with the amazing Celluar Skies track, set to an incredible backdrop of snow and huge floating sky spores. I enjoyed the game up until then, but this was when it really bought me.

I love some metroidvania games. I've played so many of them and liked most of them. Some have too many gimmicks and others not enough. Axiom Verge is a rare mineral amongst a pile of valuable rocks. It's a one-man show, music, graphics, story, programming, all made by this one genius who deserves all the praise he can get. I was looking forward to playing this game long before it came out and when I finally got to play it, I was in love. It's a great game, more people should play it, more people should enjoy the music, the pixel-art, the minimalism, the story, the flow of the game, the incredible discoveries and most of all, the ending of this game just left me wanting more of it. In fact, ending this game was sad because I had to wait until the sequel came out before I could enjoy more from the creator. Well worth the time and all the money.

Prince of Persia 3D
Prince of Persia 3DPrince of Persia 3D is an Action Adventure game, developed and published by Red Orb Entertainment, which was released in 1999. It is the third installment in the Prince of Persia franchise, and technically the first of many reboots the franchise has got. Even though the game follows plenty of concepts from the original duology of games, it has a completely unconnected story from them. Despite that, since the release of Prince of Persia: Sands of Time marks the second reboot and the start of the "modern era" of the franchise, this game is often considered a part of "original trilogy/classic trilogy" including the original duology.

Freelancer
FreelancerEight hundred years prior to the start of our story, bitter conflict divided all of mankind. A handful of colonists struck out on their own to begin anew - far away from the Earth and its turmoil. Several ships were launched with enough equipment and supplies to give the hundreds onboard a fighting chance - but since the area around far-off Sirius had never been surveyed, no one really knew what to expect. What they found was a new frontier of free-flowing natural resources, unexplored territories, great wonders and lurking dangers. Each ship, representing the clusters of people and their earthly place of origin, settled into different parts of the galaxy pre-selected by their ship-board computer to give them the best chance of survival. Life was hard in the beginning, but over the 800 years the different colonies prospered and expanded their territories, claiming more and more systems for their own. Survival and propagation eventually led to growth and profit as each of the colonies developed specialties and fostered commerce. As the colonies grew and time passed their connections with their roots on Earth dwindled and they lost their memories of the conflicts of the past. Soon their attention was dominated by new, more immediate conflicts. Feelings of lost ancestral connection spurred anachronism in the look of the great cities, and created a somewhat distorted image of each colony's cultural heritage. In the ever-expanding outer edge of the territories, frontier lawlessness prevailed. The Houses: Each shipboard colony that left Earth carried some memory of its origins in its name. The Liberty carried Americans, The Bretonia flew from The United Kingdom and surrounding territory, The Kusari from Asia, and the Rheinland launched with Germanic cargo. As each ship settled and colonies began to expand, they knew little about each other and their advancing development. Finally, little by little, the individual colonies found each other and began to set up trade routes to link their systems for commerce and solidarity. Today, with each colony firmly rooted in its respective corner of the galaxy, the colonies rely heavily on each other for trade and industry but also compete for resources and new territories in the Border Worlds. The colonies mandate member governments in "The New Alliance" within the Sirius sector. To control conflicts, each colony has forged alliances and treaties with others as they have grown. Competition remains fierce, however. Struggles rage for supremacy in business, commerce, resources, power and control. There can be tenuous peace between colonies' political agendas, but the grabs for holdings constantly unsettle the volatile frontier.
