The Wii U was a disaster and now the Switch is running rings around the competition. Brand loyalty is no substitute for a compelling product.

I can see it happening. Capcom games are good for going on sale which should help.

Personally chuffed that Bobby Kotick and his bully brigade don’t get their golden parachute

Well, the Crash revival was good while it lasted

Capcom has delivered nothing but the goods since Resident Evil VII.

The Wii introducing the Virtual Console back in 06 coloured my perception of what is “retro.” PSOne classics too.

I’ve made a habit of palette cleansing after a big AAA release with a cool indie game. On the console front, Switch definitely seems to rule the roost when it comes to indies.

There’s a joke here involving golf clubs and faces

Even as the biggest Crash fan in the world, this is simply not doing it for me. I would prefer they continued to produce original platformer adventures.

Looking forward to platinuming Dead Space. It seems to be designed around the logic of multiple play throughs that develop your character’s stats and loadout as well as your own skill.

@extragood I would say you’re better off sticking with the PS4 version. The additions to the PS5 version seem mostly superfluous as far as I can see (new craftables and structures). I’m super invested in the loop of optimising my delivery routes but I can’t imagine myself being in a rush to replay it due to needing to go through the story to unlock everything again.

Got Death Stranding in the Black Friday sale last year. €20 for over 100 hours of gameplay.

Capcom’s been on a roll with non-stop bangers since 2017.

It’s not Sony’s fault that Suicide Squad is a bundle of red flags but, yikes, what a game to hitch your presentation on.

That’s some serious commitment from Capcom to their eSports community. If nothing else, it means they’re exceptionally confident in SF6 which bodes well. Meanwhile Nintendo’s out offering twenty quid eShop credit for Smash players.

Oh wow, I assumed it’d be solid but now my attention is piqued. The first game was uniquely suited to my need to kill 100 or so hours during the pandemic lockdowns. Looks like I need to make some room in my schedule somehow.

This bullying, abusive scumbag just wants his golden parachute.

So very well deserved. I think a mainstream television audience will help vindicate a lot of the creative choices that toxic fans with rubbish media literacy trashed in Part 2.

Actually took the plunge with Death Stranding Director’s Cut. Hopelessly addicted but I played a little Dead Space and it’s just chef’s kiss

Long live single player. Long love survival horror.

Betting it all on Dead Space

Reminds me of MediEvil and plain old medieval.

Guillemot would want to be careful. The French did invent the Guillotine after all.

Had to do out a list of games to buy over the next two years just to budget for them lol.

Those are absolutely insane expectations for a new IP. What were they thinking?

Gladly stopped buying Ubisoft games around the time of the abuse reports. Doesn’t hurt that their output has been boilerplated into oblivion.

@GreatAuk exactly my issue. Crash 4 was really good at keeping the focus on the platforming so I’m hoping a Toys For Bob helmed orignal Spyro would do the same.

Binged the Reignited Trilogy over Christmas and by the Year of the Dragon, I was begging it to end. This is coming from someone who loved Spyro way back when, but the over abundance of gimmicks and extras in that game was fatiguing. That being said, Toys For Bob are a phenomenal team.

Not a huge Last of Us fan but chuffed to see the show executed to a high standard. We’re in a golden age of adaptations. Castlevania, Cuphead, Arcane, Sonic, Mario and now the Last of Us.

I know Bloober is a pretty spotty when it comes to weaving sensitive subject matter in their horror titles but actively rooting for them to ***** up the remake is plain old cynical to me.

@The_Pixel_King you’re going to hit a wall with early boss Margit the Fell Omen but don’t be discouraged. That’s your cue to diverge from the story path, make your own adventures and level up as you please. Elden Ring is one of the rare open world game that doesn’t bombard you with objectives but allows the land to pique your curiosity. Don’t be afraid to summon other players co-op as well, that’s half the fun.

Took me 3 runs of Demons Souls to get the plat just now. Don’t mind it at all when the trophies nudge you towards experimenting and trying new things each go around.

@UltimateOtaku91 there’s a great amount of exploration to do if the combat isn’t your thing

Picked it up on my Switch. It’s a lovely wee fusion of Zelda and Dark Souls. A bit too short for the price though.

Cult of the Lamb consumed me for the twenty odd hours it took to platinum. Phenomenal game.

That initial artwork of Luke and Jamie they used for the State of Play was actually perfect. Very reminiscent of vanilla SFIV’s box art.

@Smiffy01 I’d love for you to elaborate on how asking to be considerate of other people is comparable to the Third Reich. Or are you just another one of those types who throws words like fascism around without first consulting the dictionary?

Previously it was the Sonic and Pokémon fans at war over which game was the ugliest

It makes a lot of sense to bring back Crisis Core if the VII remakes are aiming to unite a lot of the extended universe plot lines under one umbrella. Weird to see it go multiplat while the main VII games are still PS/PC only.

The air has been let out of my hype balloon. Skill Up’s review really just laid the game bare for me.

Black Friday has cleaned me out for games but I’ll definitely be checking this out, probably next Halloween sale.

Fantastic game but a bit weird to be using a Switch game to debut Monster Hunter on the PS5/Series.

At least it’s not Sega.

This game has shot up the list of my must plays seemingly from nowhere.

@Dezzy70 in fairness, we’re not factoring the amount of young children who play Pokémon for whom reviews and quality assurance don’t really come into it

Beautiful tribute.

@NateGoesLive all my friends have been raving about it so now is the time. Agh, haven’t even thought about GOW. One day…

Demon Souls, Integrade and Cult of the Lamb for me.

Keeping my eye on this one

@Korgon I’m surprised they never did give it another go. Platform fighters that slap various IP together are bigger than ever now. Nintendo managing to get Final Fantasy, Persona, Metal Gear, Tekken and Kingdom Hearts into their game just speaks to the size of the ball Sony dropped.
