Gryphon Knight Epic

When I first got Steam nobody told me that wired PS3 controllers are only compatible with a handful of Steam titles. I collected a pile of cool looking games in my Steam library before I realized this. So I finally got around to buying a new wired Xbox 360 controller.

Gryphon Knight Epic was the first game I decided to make a gameplay vid for, and do a article on. I’ve been eyeing up this game for months. I just can’t get into using a keyboard and mouse. I had my doubts that the 360 controller would work, but we have success.

GKE received a very positive rating in the Steam store. After much anticipation I now understand why. This game is freak’n amazing. After only playing the tutorial and 1 level I absolutely love it. Since I haven’t played the entire game, I’m not going to do a full review. If you watch my short gameplay video, then you will see why I highly recommend it.

If you hurry its 50% off at the time I’m making this post. Well worth $4.99
