Guardians of the Galaxy: Square Enix Gets a Marvel Video Game Right

Image
Second time lucky for Square Enix. Following the disaster that was The Avengers the team at Eidos-Montréal and published by Square Enix have reclaimed some good will when it comes to them making and publishing Marvel games when it came to 2021's Guardians of the Galaxy. Before going into the game more to showcase how great the game is I just want to use the one image below. Now this is pretty metal.  The Guardians of the Galaxy game has you play as Star-Lord and Star-Lord only. In a move that feels a lot like God of War you can command your allies around you, while God of War had 1, Guardians of the Galaxy you can order your crew in battle with each supporting character (Drax, Gamora, Rocket & Groot) who all have their strengths and weaknesses. The strength of this team is their bond and how that grows it has been in the movies and it is in the game, it's a small detail but I loved that in the final level the environmental puzzles were automatically done instead of you orde
