Just playing Child of Light on the PS4. I'd been waiting to see if it'd get a proper physical release as opposed to the gimped download code box version that it had got until now. Seeing as that is looking increasingly unlikely, I decided to pony up the €15 for the download and have come to the conclusion that it is a fucking crime that this game has been confined to the annals of downloadable-only titles. An absolute classic and one of my games of the year. And Béatrice Martin's soundtrack to that game - very Nobuo Uematsu-inspired - is truly wonderful.
I'll second that thought. Machinarium is one of those adventure games where I was scratching my head on some of the puzzles, but when the solution finally revealed itself, I was left wondering why I didn't think of it sooner. It looks highly illogical, but you come to realise that the game really is giving you all the clues you need.
Which, if I'm honest, is more than can be claimed for 90% of the P'n'C adventures out there.
