This is a horrible port. The backgrounds have been smeared with some horrendous filter. FF7 and 8 remasters look a lot better. FF8 remastered is the perfect jrpg actually.
Wanna know why Prime 1 was so great? Shigeru Miyamoto had his hands on its development.
As for MP4 the problem is not the NPCs or the desert. The real problem is the game is not big enough to warrant the long wait. How did they spend 6+ years for a 13 hour game? Also people were expecting some innovative gameplay mechanics like time traveling mechanics and it's just not there!
The PC version has a "QoL" feature that gives you all cards and maxes the GFs for free? Then what the ***** is the point of playing the game at all? Thank god this trash was not included in the Switch version.
Halo games are so bad. I don't see the fun in shooting 3 different enemy types in self-similar, undetailed grey corridors. The games don't even have puzzles or any other gameplay to relieve from the monotony.
MGS 2 is has aged better actually. Both Switch versions run perfecly despite the ***** fps talk.
@The90sWereBetter
That was the ps3HD version, the original ran at 30fps. Mgs2 was 60 fps on all platforms except Switch. Not that it would matter since they all play and run identically in terms of how it looks like when you play.
@Gaviin
It's obviously not open world despite this clickbait article. People just forgot the existence of the earlier trailer and jumped to ignorant conclusions based on one open desert area.
No one has still completed the game and it's been like 4 days. This is the most large platformer ever. I'm probably farther in than most people and all I can say it's a masterpiece leaving every other metroidvania and most other soulslikes in the dust.
I just spent my time reading old video game reviews and guess what? No one EVER talked about framerates unless it was a game crippling problem. The fact you spend so much time talking about a non- issue is embarrassing and dumb. The entire fps conversation has really gotten out of hand to the point it's almost insane.
It's just about the repairability not the quality of the controller which is top notch.
I'm sure many people make a bid deal out of it, though, as if you ever needed to repair these things. They last forever unless you're banging them with a hammer.
90% of the games still look like Switch 1 games. Just proves how useless the power increase for the consoles are these days. Same for PS5, the best looking game for the console is actually a PS4 game (RDR2).
What does it matter whether you control a plumber or an ape? Gameplay is most important in these games. If DK Bananza is good enough, it can be a replacement for a new Mario. Besides, it's nice to get a new 3D DK game after all these years.
How the hell is double dash so high. The game was so small with just a few tracks and the gameplay was bland. The graphics are dated. It makes me think it got the spot only for the co-op mode, and nostalgia. Most players seem to have rose tinted glasses on everytime someone mentions a gamecube game.
I would give Wind Waker 8.5/10. It's not as good as the 10/10 BotW and N64 outings, but better than Twilight Princess and Skyward Sword.
The Wind Waker has the weakest story out of all 3D Zeldas, though. There's just one epic scene in the whole game and even that's nowhere near the series peaks.
It's too bad the Switch 2 is so expensive, just like PS5 and Xbox series X. I don't have money to buy any of these consoles, so maybe I'll just wait for Prime 4 and buy it for the Switch 1. After that I'm done with gaming I suppose.
Xenoblade 3 DLC is nowhere near as good as the main game.
My list:
6. Xenoblade 2 DLC Torna
5. Xenoblade 2
4. Xenoblade 3 DLC Future Redeemed
3. Xenoblade X
2. Xenoblade Definitive Edition
1. Xenoblade 3
Xenoblade 2 is a trash game, imo. The character designs are awful and the story is boring with weak main cast and even weaker villains. Otherwise the series is pretty much perfect! Xenoblade 3 and 1 are my favorite rpgs of all time.
If you want to cancel fall damage in TotK just upgrade the glide set. Otherwise it wouldn't be good. The physics of the game exists in order to make the world believable.

Wesker is one of the worst villains. He looks like a Matrix character and is just annoying.
I think they should consider making the main villain something else than a person, like a dangerous special horde or something.

Re: Hollow Knight: Silksong's Price Appears To Have Leaked
They could easily ask a full price, but if this is true hats off for the developers!
Also I'm buying all indie games as digital so I don't mind if the physical is more expensive.

At any rate what the hell is wrong with those screenshots? Why are they looking so blurry? Even my Switch 1 version looks better than that.
@Jeronan
The new pro controller is a lot better than the old one, though. The stick quality alone is best in the market.
