Re: Review: DOOM II - It's Hell On Earth With This Devilishly Playable Switch Port

Anyone thinking about buying should the real review:

https://www.eurogamer.net/amp/digitalfoundry-2019-doom-1-2-3-ports-tech-analysis

These new ports of Doom 1&2 are shoddy and incomplete.

Purchased Doom Classic Complete (PS3) years ago and this is no upgrade.

Sadly, the better last gen ports of these games are getting delisted now.

Distracted by DRM, no one is watching as best console versions slip away.

This score is far too generous (8, Great).

Digital Foundry evaluation was brutal and critical.

They raise issues with the graphics, sound effects, and the music.

So basically the whole game/port is fairly shoddy and unfinished.

What's more, the PS3 Doom Complete actually had more content:

Original Doom (w/ bonus episode), Doom 2, and Final Doom.

Final Doom had two new games TNT (32 levels) and Plutonium (32 levels).

This botched port (with less content and more DRM) is no upgrade.

I was initially excited about Doom on Switch, but that's faded now.

This is a smart play for Sony.

When PSVR came out, it was compared to pricey PC solutions.

Those comparisons weren't very favorable for Sony at all.

MS talked about getting into VR, but then backed away.

Sony was ghosted by MS and showed up at the console VR party alone.

When PSVR didn't set the world on fire, there were whispers of failure.

Now Nintendo is finally getting into VR and this time the comparisons to PSVR will be very favorable for Sony.

Sony is probably thrilled about Labo VR...

Have the PS3 Sega Collection & new one for Switch.

Castlevania Collection is coming later this year ..

Nintendo Online gives you a growing set of NES/SNES games too.

These retro consoles TV games are potentially on the outs (?).

Unless you hack these things (like PSX), it's not really worth it.

Re: Review: Final Fantasy Explorers (3DS)

GamerDad66

I didn't pay alot for this game (2/$20 at GameStop)...

But the lack of 3D is a real bummer, there's no disclaimer on box.

Nowhere does it say 'Playable in 2D' on the cover like others titles.

On the back, there's even a 3D warning (!). This is some serious BS

Re: Revisit The Past In Diablo III's Darkening Of Tristram Anniversary Event

Enjoying my time with Switch version of Diablo Eternal.

Put one week into Season 15 and got a monster Barb in return.

Wrath of the Wastes set is ridiculous, whirlwind does like +3000% damage.

Never did seasons on PS4 because my characters were already established.

The Switch Loot Goblin is also OP, farming goblins in that realm is a blast.

Everytime Greed hits a wall, she drops a goblin. You can kill dozens.

I usually enter the Realm with empty inventory and leave nearly full:

Gems, crafting materials, millions in gold, Legendaries dropping everywhere.

Going to create second Barb to use level reduced gear & do Darkening Event.

Season 16 will be a Monk. This game is too much fun.
