About Beyond Good & Evil

Beyond Good & Evil is an action-adventure game with elements of puzzle-solving and stealth-based games. The player controls the protagonist, Jade, from a third-person perspective. Jade can run, move stealthily, jump over obstacles and pits, climb ladders, push or bash doors and objects, and flatten herself against walls. As Jade, the player investigates a number of installations in search of the truth about a war with an alien threat.

I played this split with my roommate, one on the controller and one reading tips off a forum, and honestly it was one of our best weekends that year

    No entiendo el mito. Lo rejugué hace poco y se siente flojo comparado con lo que hay ahora.

  3. Nova_Pagan

    Sigue mereciendo su lugar aunque nadie se lo reconozca en estos duelos, la ambientación por sí sola ya vale el viaje completo.

  4. Peltier8

    Jamais compris le culte autour de ce jeu. Sympa sur le moment, oublié dès le générique.

    ¿No será justo por eso que sigue apareciendo en estos duelos después de tanto tiempo?

  5. ArcadeKnight

    Lo jugué de prestado un fin de semana entero, apenas avancé pero me quedó grabado

    QuestKnight

    Perdu contre Doom encore une fois ? Il fait quoi exactement pour convaincre à côté d'un FPS aussi direct et efficace, qqn a une explication concrète

    Yo también lo tuve prestado, y me acuerdo que anoté en un cuaderno dónde había llegado para no perder el hilo al devolverlo.
