And then sometimes there’s a game like Silent Hill: Book of Memories, from Wayforward in 2012 for the PS Vita, bringing together the two tastes of ‘psychological survival horror’ and ‘dungeon crawler’ like everybody always wanted. Just like in cooking, it’s a matter of how you do it and what you’re mixing together. A classic like Actraiser fused a city builder with a side scrolling action game to great success. Video games have their fair share of this phenomena, as well, and sometimes it works. It’s inexplicable, but some people seem to like it, even as it turns some others off. Pineapple and ham are both perfectly fine ingredients in most situations, just not on pizza, yet people put them together, on pizza. There are just some flavors that don’t go together.
