"I embrace it!" - Michael LeRoi

All my Nintendo systems from NES to Switch has either been grey or black. I much prefer that as electronics are ugly in general and don't need to stand out.

Well, as long as RCMDIAX has internet access, there's always a chance that another shovelware "game" that nobody wants will extend the Wii U library.

Drift applies to all controllers over time. Not just Nintendo Joy cons.

Duck Hunt: Even though you can't shoot the ducks on these blasted new televisions, you can still be the duck and fly around for that sweet sweet evasive victory.

I'm more curious as to know how hard Bandai Namco sucked at getting the formula right before they were canned.

If any one has a board game itch, try out Armello.
It's been patched and updated, so it now runs perfectly on Switch.

Other M is a great game. Just because there are Metroid games out there that are even better, doesn't mean this isn't good.

Hope they add some siege quests this time. Jhen Mohran would be a welcome addition.

This is huge. Opens up posibilities for Conker's Bad Fur Day and Battletoads.

I was hoping for the original SNES game being part of this.

Anyway I'm surprised these are RPG's cause I could have sworn there was a first person shooter called Shadowrun for Xbox 360.

@SlayerG
Thanks for sharing. 80 pieces is definitely cool. A little worried about the material though. Looks like it could damage the pins on the cartridge if it's some sort of synthetic hairy material. Sorry it's the best description I've got beyond cotton. English is not my primary language 😉

My Hori case which is 1/3 the size of that can contain 24 cartridges. I whish I could find one that could contains a lot more though.

Edit: @Anti-Matter So the tortoise wins again

I never got to the point of a third playthrough to see what would happen to Mantorok once the balance of the ancients was completely broken. Always got the feeling that a surprise was in store for those who would.

• Oh, and yeah... best game ever!

Why did I initially think of Stonekeep?

I personally never lost grip of the Wii Remote.

I'd like to call for a poll. Cause it seems to me that a lot of you guys have filthy greasy hands

A: You have filthy hands and your controllers are greasy
B: You always clean your hands before use and never let anyone else use your controller, but keep spare ones for the mob to use.

Con: "Falls into 'grindy RPG' territory at times"

How is that a con? It should be a pro! It's Monster Hunter for christ sake! Like giving Tetris a con for being repetitive.

I don't get it. The skin colour should match whatever makes sense the area the game is representing to take place in.

Resident Evil 5 chose a setting in Africa. It was loaded with Africans. Finally people should be happy, right?... Right?.... Wrong! There's always someone complaining.

@Pirate1

Go with RE1 if you want survival horror at it's finest.

If money is never an issue... then the price is always right.

Exploding Fist.

Is it any different from the C64 classic?

Thinking of the Gamecube I really miss Extreme-G. What a great racing series.

Only 6 courses? What a letdown!

Mario Golf 64 had 8 courses. Might as well play that.
Speed golf has zero interest. The idea itself is just ridiculous. If you wanna play golf, do it right.

@RoguePirate

Yeah, that was my thought as well. Then I looked at the other guy eager to see who he was supposed to look like - everything went downhill from there.

Fetch quests were never fun. Why are developers still doing this?

I reckon Elder Scrolls VI was rumoured in the works back in 2016 or maybe even the year before. An official announcement didn't happen until 2018, but it might well have been in the works for over 5 years now. So it's not unsual. Just stupid to announce something with more than 1 year until actual release.

@BenAV

Exactly. Don't announce it then.

Listening to....

I think it's ridiculous when these so called "Limited Print" companies releases psysical games which costs 10 times as much as their digital counterpart.

If this is part 3, then where is part 1 and 2?

A link would be nice, since the search function on this site is horrendous.

@GKO900

It's not really the gameplay that made World. The gameplay was mainly what people was bitching about. You only know if you have played former games. What made World was the fact that it was on a dedicated home console and not a handheld, so that graphics and power could finally lift the game to what the others could not.

@Rayquaza2510

How about saying what you mean instead of highlighting what you do not?

@duffmmann

Quickly? I wouldn't call it quickly. This game is the 6th generation. Monster Hunter is almost 20 years old. Didn't really see any acclaim before the 3th generation.

@RupeeClock

But it's not A purple rupee, it's THE purple rupee.

@TG16_IS_BAE

Why not purchase a Pro Controller? Problem solved. Maybe even slide it in the docking station and play on the big screen. I personally never play hand held. It's just not comfortable.

@Kirgo

World+Iceborne actually only have 47 unique large monsters. The rest are just subspecies/variants.

That makes Rises 43 unique monsters feel like a far better deal so early after release, if updates with new monster keep on coming.

@KoopaTheGamer

It's 2.0 now, so you're quite wrong.

Pigs with 4 eyes.... !

@Mark-number-12
Shouldn't have supported Brexit then. Can't have the best of both worlds.

There will be better looking games 7 years from now

@Entrr_username
It was indeed a selfish arrogant idea, which nobody wanted besides the big dukes themselves. It was only about the money and totally undermined all that football stands for in it's beauty. That David, although tiny as it is, always has a chance to take out Goliath. They tried to destroy that.
These 12 clubs has damaged their reputation and it does not look like the fans are forgiving so easily.

@1ofUs
Open any European news paper and the explanation is there.

So... I have now put in between 50-100 hours in Rise. And although it does seem like one of the best Monster Hunter games in the series, I have one major complaint - and I'm disappointed that the review mentions nothing of it. Maybe the reviewer hasn't really played other games in the series to full extend or maybe he is just not that skilled.

Anyway... the major complaint is that the game is WAY TOO EASY. It's beyond ridiculous. Taking down monsters takes around 5-10 minutes compared to older games in the series which would take in comparison 4 times as long.
Monster Hunter games is supposed to be hard or at least not easy. It is supposed to require skill and forces you to pay attention at all times. I don't feel that's the case here. I have yet never experienced a quest abandoned cause of 3 faints. When a game is too easy, you don't feel rewarded when you succeed a hunt.

I'd like to know your opinion on this matter. There's no way I can be the only one with this feeling.

@Barbara001
Thread #14 nails my feeling.

@Barbara001
In that case well played. Your opinion is obviously very valid. We all have different ways of enjoying a gaming experience. For me, the story is everything. I started with VII all those years ago and was blown away. The story was something special that I had never experienced before. I followed up with VIII and was very disappointed. Sure if you like your odd love story, but it lacked tension and lots more. Poor sequel to the series. I dropped out due to the fact that I owned other systems than Playstation and played the former on PC, so didnt play another FF game until I purchased an overpriced copy of FF6 for SNES. That was perhaps my greatest FF experience of all time. It was magical. Everything about it. I would love to see a modern remake of that one.
I also own 4 on SNES but havent gotten to it yet. Maybe I should do it soon. A few years ago I was given a pink Playstation 2 at my birthday so that I could experienve FF XII. Im still not sure if their intension was to mock me as I have always deliberately avoided Sony consoles. I played through it and was somewhat disappointed at my friends praisel. You see, when you have played through VI and VII, you come to expect too much of the series. I play them cause I dont like reading books, but want the same powerful storytelling experience. XIII trilogy I played through and actually enjoyed and Im not sure why. A lot of things I disliked, but overall I enjoyed the experience and even thouhg the story was somewhat weak, it kept me interested through the lore. I liked it much more than XV, so when everyone else was putting XIII down, my expectations for XV could nothing but rise.
Im holding back on FF7 Remake until the whole trilogy is released. Im sure I will enjoy it. Dont know why so many talk about VII being overhyped. If you didnt experience the game around its initial release, of cause you will feel its overhyped. When you see graphics from another age you need the nostalgia to be able to enjoy it I believe. It will be interesting to the what they come up with for XVI. I just feel they need better writers.

@Barbara001
Yeah, I'm sure. You never forget a disappointment like that 😉
I have to ask out of curiosity. Have you played any other FF games, so that you can truly compare?

@Barbara001
XV's story amazing? What story? There is none. What little there is, a kid could have written in 2 hours. Even the villain is more indifferent and boring than watching paint dry.

I can't believe XV is even on the list. It's the worst FF game I've ever played. Sure the graphics are fine, but the game is utter *****. I would have put XIII before XV any day. All comes down to individual opinions though.

Neither am I surprised. I only played Symphonia and Vesperia, but between those Symphonia was the better experience.
