2023 should be a busy year for video games. Hogwarts: Hogwarts Legacy, The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, Diablo IV, Final Fantasy XVI, Starfield, Street Fighter 6, a year full of releases that could well prove to be memorable. However, we'll have to wait until we have them in our hands to really discover all their splendor. The first AAA of 2023, Forspoken, did not seduce. Let's hope that the rest of the 2023 line-up is better. But until then, you'll have to wait a little longer.
To help with that, you can always turn to O2Jam Online, released last week on Steam. A rhythm game that has been stoned by players, only 4% of the reviews are positive, for more than 1088 published reviews. A franchise that appeared in the 2000s that finally closed its doors, publicly at least, in 2012. Despite this, fans have continued to keep this license alive through private servers. A franchise that is very popular around the world, which has been fired up at the idea of discovering a new opus.
However, the launch of O2Jam Online has not been a smooth one. Although free, the game requires players to purchase songs that they can only keep for seven or 30 days. It's impossible to acquire it forever. In addition, different aspects of the game are offered in the same way. Questionable business decisions that were not helped by the technical part. Thus, O2Jam Online seems to take many of the ideas from its mobile attempt released a few years ago. The game's resolution doesn't go beyond 1920x1080p, offering a blurry look to 1440p screens.
Players also suffered from problems with the audio of the tracks being out of sync, when keyboard shortcuts are absent. The icing on the cake: despite the mention of "Online" in the title, the game is single player only. A memorable cocktail that is none other than the 16th worst rated game in Steam history. As you can see, O2Jam Online is to be forgotten. Unless you are intrigued enough to give it a chance. Either way, fans of the series are adamant that such a title deserves to be sent to limbo and not come back out.
