Coincidentally, my girlfriend has been watching this show again after many years of not being able to watch it. For me myself, it has been a fun trip down memory lane. I will say though, I never did play the Gargoyles game. Honestly hadn't even heard of it until it was brought up. I still don't think I really want to play it.
I had a Game Boy Color when I was a kid, I believe it was a turquoise colored one. I didn't have it very long though, because I recieved it as a gift around the time that the Game Boy Advance came out, so I was very quickly upgraded to the Game Boy Advance. I still have fun memories of the short time that I had one though.
I will more than likely be playing MLB The Show 23, and plenty of Super Mario Wonder this weekend. Two quality titles that will easily divide my attention, and provide enjoyful, meaningful experiences.
That is a pretty awesome little fact with an animation to back it up! Little details like those are why I enjoy Nintendo games so much. I am sure we will be learning new little things about this game years after its release. I am very much looking forward to Friday.
I honestly didn't think this port was ever going to come out. I really enjoyed this game on PS5, and I curious to see how this port holds up. Definitely looking forward to the review.
I am incredibly hyped for this game, and my whole family feels the same way. I will definitely be playing this one day one, and this week is a paycheck week so all good on that front!
Awesome! The differences in the video ease my concerns of a far superior port of the PlayStation 5 version. I am typically.one to want the games I purchase to have the best visual fidelity, but in this case, I will be picking this up on Nintendo Switch. Not just because of the visuals, but also because of everyone in my family being able to play it. Great stuff when the ports run similarly.
It is an awesome sight seeing the Sonic franchise getting it's time in the limelight again in terms of review scores. I have always like Sonic games regardless, but the fact that Sega is figuring out (again) what makes a Sonic game great is music to my ears. I will definitely be picking this one up for my family.
More than anything, I will be playing this game with my kids if I buy it. Even with the chaotic nature of a 4 person Sonic game, it would be a fresh, and interesting experience for my family. For that reason alone, it will most likely secure a purchase.
And I will be avoiding those spoilers with the entirety of my soul. I want this game to be completely new to me, besides the bits and pieces I have already seen. Super Mario games don't come out very often, so spoilers sting a little bit harder for me with this series.
I personally have been playing some of the Modern Warfare 3 beta ( which is good fun at times, though mlre of the same with a slightly different feel)
I have also been playing MLB The Show 23 on PlayStation 5. I have been enjoying the simulation aspects of it since I hardly ever play sports games. This is probably the first one I have enjoyed since my Sega Genesis days.
Pretty solid gaming all around! I'll be playing Super Mario Wonder when that one comes out!
Easily the Japanese variant due to the extra artwork. I have never played this game before so I really don't think my opinion is super well informed on this one. I went off of artwork alone in this case.
I played this one for a short length of time a while back but the game didn't really stick with me. I am not the biggest fan of Kirby in the first place though. I love the character, but the game mechanics are always hard for me to put a whole lot of effort into. They just don't hold my attention.
After finishing Resident Evil 4 Remake, and having a great time with that one, I have now moved on to playing Final Fantasy VII Remake on PlayStation 5. I also have never played that game either, so both remake experiences were/are brand new experiences I have not played before, and a true joy. Honestly, at this point, I do not know which one I like more. They have both been friggin fantastic so far. I guess I will have to see when the credits roll which remake I liked the most. Hopefully everyone else has a great weekend.
I will be finishing up Resident Evil 4 Remake on PlayStation 5 and will be in the process of considering buying the Ada Wong dlc for extra content. Beyond that, I am unsure as to what I will play next.
I am really curious how much of an improvement these updates will be capable of. If they are trying to keep it at 60 fps, it may be challenging unless they have some tricks up their sleeve.
For me, spoilers in a new Super Mario game would be something like learning about the new worlds, powers, and secret unlockables. I personally do try to stay away from spoilers even in Super Mario games because as progression is made in the game, all of the mentioned above occurs, and would dampen my enjoyment of the game if I already knew what to expect from my playthrough. There isn't much fun in that. I'll have fun regardless though since I will be playing this with my family. That will make all the difference regardless of spoilers.
The primary redeeming quality that I see about this game besides it's multiplayer madness is the fact that the game itself brings me back to the crazy game ideas of the Nintendo Wii days. This is absolutely something that feels like it came out of that era, not technically based on technology, but instead based on the idea itself.
Some images of this version have proven to be quite popular on social media. I personally always prefer the best experience when choosing where to play my video games, and I would certainly get this one elsewhere for my own enjoyment. The graphical downgrade may not be a big deal for those who are looking for portability.
I personally can't find many reasons to revisit a title I have 100% completion on, and have played through multiple times. I may consider buying it for my son, but even that would be much further down the road.
I am super eager for the remake, though I will be playing it on PlayStation 5 for sure. Everything about this remake oozes style and nostalgia. And I have actually never played this particular Dragon Quest game. This would be a brand new experience for me.
I am playing the Resident Evil 4 Remake on PlayStation 5 this weekend and I am loving every minute of it. I have never played this game to completion and it has been a thrill so far. The shadow effects are so incredible in this one.
It certainly doesn't feel like it has been that long. I used to watch the show for episodically for a little while when I was a kid. I enjoyed Dragon Ball Z/Dragon Ball more when I was a kid.
I am delving deeply into Blasphemous 2 on Nintendo Switch this weekend and I have already completed a good chunk of the game. The game is a little tough when first starting off but it gets easier as it goes along. I am also currently waiting for my physical copy of Dark Souls Remastered for Nintendo Switch to come in so I can enjoy romping through that game for the first time. I loved playing Demon's Souls on PlayStation 5 and I am eager to dive into another souls game.
I personally will be primarily using Mario though I will be switching it up and using Luigi from time to time as well. I usually just stick with the classics.
It's truly a great game, and I'm having a hard time finding any faults with it. It is just a joy to play from start to finish. Currently, I'm about 16 hours in and I still have plenty to explore, and story to continue.
More than anything, I love how clean the motherboard looks in comparison to the N64 variant, though that isn't surprising. I would honestly probably buy Nintendo's though since the last 8BitDo controller I bought had a bad sticking button issue regardless of my attempts to clean or fix it.
The voting is very mixed on this one! I myself easily favor the North American/European variant. I love box arts in that style. The Japanese color pallete kind of falls flat for me.
I am currently playing this game on PlayStation 5, and this game is as good as the review says it is. It harkens back to games of my childhood, and even though I didn't play a whole lot of games in this particular style, I feel the nostalgia for it. And the fact that the game has its own unique ideas, characters and storyline really surprises me. So far, this game could easily stand up against some of the classics.
I'm going to be playing Sea of Stars for most of my 9-day vacation from work. I'm only about 3 hours in so far, but the game's been a blast, and really brings you back to your childhood, if you are around during that era. And like the many reviews that I read, I agree with the fact that the characters are immediately likable, which gets you more involved in the storyline, and the game you are playing. And I get to play it as part of my subscription on PlayStation Plus on my PlayStation 5.
Pretty darn cool if true, though I think I will just ride out my OG Nintendo Switch until the next Nintendo system arrives. It is still working perfectly fine due to my maintenance.
I mean, if I had to choose between the two, I have been waiting for longer for a new 2D Super Mario game than I have been waiting for a new 2D Sonic game. Mario easily takes the cake with this one for me, especially since it isn't another entry in the "New" Super Mario Bros series.
I am all in on the North American variant this time. I love the color pallet choice, even if the character model isn't as cool as the Japanese variant.
I will be continuing my playthrough of Shadow Of The Tomb Raider on PlayStation 5 after finishing my playthrough of Hogwarts Legacy. The extra content in that game dragged on for longer than I wanted, but it was still a very enjoyable experience. I am enjoying my time continuing the story of Lara Croft simply because there is far less scope than some games I have played in the past. I am burnt out on 60 hour epics...
Awesome. New and improved solutions to quality testing is always welcome, especially as games keep broadening in scope as well as budget. Hopefully this helps some developers in some small way.
I remember playing this game back in the day on Newgrounds when it first released and I have so many fond memories for this game. I would honestly play it again if it came to PlayStation Plus.
