Hideo Kojima made a name for himself with the Metal Gear Solid series but before he wanted to bring back the Metal Gear name, he made a cyberpunk adventure game for the Sega CD. It had incredible Blade Runner-like style and story within an adventure game similar to old Lucasarts games.

It’s the year 2046 and you play as Gillian Seed, working for a task force specializing in hunting down bioroids known as Snatchers who are killing humans and taking their place in the world. Since the game didn’t sell all that well and being on the Sega CD which not a lot of people really played or even had, it has a potential to get to a real audience this time.

Avatar Grand Prix was developed by Battenberg Software. It was released August 25, 2010 for 80MSP. A copy of the game was provided by the developer for review purposes.

It’s easy to dismiss some indie games as mere copies of the games they try to emulate. It’s not surprising that so many generi-makes exist on the Indie Games channel amongst the original ideas. But sometimes one emerges that truly deserves a download, one that takes players back and provides not only the concept, but the content players are looking for. Avatar Grand Prix takes its cues from Mario Kart 64; the basics are all there: powerup cubes, power sliding, it’s even got a rainbow road copy. But where other Mario Kart clones may fall short Avatar GP succeeds.

What you see above is an anomaly in my gamerscore — a game with every achievement unlocked. In fact that date you see, March 30, 2011, was the first time in two and the half years I’ve owned my 360 that I’ve ever achieved 100% completion on any game. I’m not a completionist, in fact, I’m probably the furthest thing from it. I’m what you might call a casualist. I play a game until I get bored with it. Lots of times I’ll beat the game and not go back for extra achievements; I don’t get the point.
