Yeah I'm still kind of pissed because they have a game on switch, and it runs horribly, it needs to Hit 60 frames per second and on the switch one it will not do it, however on switch 2 it will, but I don't think I want to support them if they're not going to fix old games, as in they just released it in the just left it there to rot...
Ubisoft can't make any right decisions, they make the most weird and absolutely baffling politicized games, and then when it flops they can't figure out why and they have a bazillion employees that they have to support... They literally kicked out almost all their good talent because they politicized their story telling and all that stuff.
I wanted to get another NBA jam type game, but whenever I saw that it had all these weird player card mechanics and all this other BS, and it seems like I remember it having microtransactions? To play NBA jam right now is the Wii version on my Wii U.
It would be interesting to find out how much money they spend on making some of these newer games, like I would love to see a comparison between okay. Maybe money's not the right word, how many man hours were spent on Mario Kart. Super Nintendo, versus say Mario Kart 64 and up through the ranks to Mario Kart world, they're spending a lot of time on these games now and it's like they invest too heavily in it. Maybe? And I don't know but I'm asking is Sonic racing considered a AAA title?
I got a question, has anyone else besides me wanted an option to pull out the camera a little bit? I get that it might be a little bit difficult on some of the sections where your interior of the dirt and rock. And all, but sometimes the camera is too close, and is somewhat annoying. But overall great game, I did have to turn off all that screen shaking though. 😱
@Sonicka It's still pretty boring in the intermission sections, especially I've really started to despise the route Nintendo took with MKW. I have been playing Mario Kart 8 recently and Mario Kart 8 has a whole lot of A+ karting, But Mario Kart world the gameplay is just not as good because the tracks are not as good, I mean you can almost play some of the tracks without even looking
Until they take politics out of their games, and make games that people want to play, it's going to be really tough for Ubisoft. Also they got way way too big.
I will definitely try it. I loved Madden 64 and the older 16 bit games, But when I tried to play it on Wii U, least I think it was on Wii U, I don't know. Anyway, I remember the last time I tried to play a modern version though I was very turned off by the realism, I'm sorry but I prefer to have it much easier to complete passes and things like that, real football as a video game is not fun for me. That said, I will give it a try
I feel like they could have done more however. 4.99 it's good, but free would have been better. We are more excited about the 3.0 updates... They are game changing.
@NintendoWife Yeah this is true information here, I have recently been playing Mario Kart 8, and it really is better than Mario Kart world at its current state.
Hardware discounts? They probably thought they were going to lower the price on the switch one, which would have sold a ton of them, I think Nintendo is screwing up by not lowering the price of the switch one.
@HugoGED that sounds horrible.... What happened to call of duty? I know they went all crazy with girl boss stuff and other stuff and I'm not allowed to mention here, but why are they into such bloat? I think I would have a lot of fun if they made a call of duty. That's like the games that they used to make 10 or 15 years ago.
@pspooky same here. I will not purchase it until they do 60 frames per second because that game has a lot of sweeping areas and 30 FPS can be a bit annoying
@OrtadragoonX So here's my question, if it's such a horrible engine and all these things, why don't they just remake it? All they'd have to do is reuse the assets? This game has made them money hand over fist, you think they would be happy to have a proper remake and have something they can be proud of, but no, they're trying to squeeze every last dollar out of that game
It's just insane that they release games like this, they should be ashamed of themselves, I certainly hope that one day these mega ga giant corporations like Bethesda get broken up and have individual studios again, it's just freaking ridiculous how much money they spend on trying to make a game and then it ends up sucking and then you take a 10-year-old game and try to put it on a new console and I could run it better on my toaster! I can only imagine the bureaucratic nightmare that accompany that big must be. There must be so many middle managers and so many different people getting in the way of a good product, think of all the millions of dollars wasted on payroll for people that literally their job is to screw up games... Lol. Instead of letting the developers make a good game.
@JayJ I'm curious to play this game, I have need for speed for the switch, and I also have burnout Paradise, both games are very good games, and I do like both, however need for speed automobiles feel heavy as hell, and burnout. Of course all the cars feel light as a feather, how does grid stack up on this? Do the cars fill super heavy and cumbersome? I would love to find a game that is somewhere in between burnout Paradise and need for speed, every time I play. Need for speed. I end up enjoying myself, but it still feels like my car is stuck in molasse.
I would love to have a old school style call of duty with a single-player campaign, but I have no will or want to play any kind of online multiplayer, it's just horrible. Also, the recent past has been shoehorning in girl bosses and other modern tropes that are just so overdone.
@vio I agree. Devs make games for the new "modern audience" while simultaneously abandoning the base core gamers which make up 95% of the buyers... I need to make a return to the '90s and early 2000s...
@nmanifold It's funny. I use game chat about 40% of the time as me and my sister live in different cities and play games concurrently... Game chat is so much better than the phone.
@rvcolem1 not much... This game has been criticized due to its story, which some find to be forced diversity. While the gameplay is generally considered good, it has not performed well commercially, especially in Japan, where it was met with significant criticism.
