Mark my words: Reginleiv is headed outside Japan

Could the ‘big announcement’ at the Nintendo summit be Reginleiv for overseas? Maybe.

Great merciful Zeus, just look at that packaging!

I have gotten snarky emails like, “Reginleiv is said to have an hour worth of cutscenes. What are you going to do, Malstrom? Hur hur hur…” Well, Pac-Man has cutscenes, and you know what I did? I played the hell out of Pac-Man. This game is so simple in that I instantly understood what it was about. You just cut things to little pieces. That is it. No other BS is in the game. And that is what I want. The cutscenes and all are just the cherry on top. This game is clearly not revolving around the ‘story’ or ‘cutscenes’.

The biggest disappointment from Reginleiv is that it is not multiplayer co-op. Alas. But there is online at least.

And as my music section shows, I am a sucker for games with awesome music. I believe music and sound are an extremely important part of a game… perhaps the most important part. And Reginleiv has one ROCKING soundtrack!

Reader, stop reading and start listening. Ahh, good music… an element that has been missing in many modern games.
