@Type_Trubbish Are we back in 2008? Why would you "detest" furries? I think they're weird and cringe, but "detesting" them based solely on that is pathetic, and makes me think there's some projection/insecurity issues at play here.
Beat the OCU campaign over the weekend. Fantastic game. Reviewer's big complaints (RNG and inability to target specific Wanzer parts) was proof that he didn't play for very long (Accuracy quickly improves with arm upgrades, and skills to target specific parts are quickly unlocked for both long and short range weapons.)
@Ralizah From what I can remember (years since I played through Grandia 1 and 2), Criticals are used to knock enemies back on the ATB gauge thing- basically you use them to delay enemy turns or cancel out specials.
@Serpenterror Play Asia had pre-orders live briefly in September. I managed to get one, but it was $59.99 (not $34.99 as listed here), and there haven't been any updates since.
A bit lower than the Metacritic average, and on the low end of the positive scores. Most other positive reviews are conveying that this is a big improvement over the game, and one of the best on the system.
Making extremely specific and subjective observations complaints, and attributing them to "we" (everyone working for the site?) instead of "I" is just plain poor writing.
@PepperMintRex another clueless person with no idea how the legal system works, lol. Ever seen Nintendo go after the people who create the emulators? No, it's the sites that host the ROMs. Nintendo can't do a damn thing about this, thankfully.
@cdmac Series X are fairly easy to find these days, compared to PS5. I play mine a lot more than my PS5, thanks to the incredible backwards compatibility support (I skipped last Xbox Gen, but still own a bunch of 360 and OGXbox games that are boosted on XSX)
@The_Pixel_King That's gonna turn out great when Nintendo kills the Switch eShop servers in about 9 years, and you no longer have the ability to redownload any of those 800(!) games.
@McGruber anyone who would say otherwise is just a sycophant for a company that doesn't care about them, at all. This is a massively ***** anti-consumer move on Nintendo's part.
It's truly wild that I can freely re-download and play X360 games I bought nearly 15 years ago on my Series X, with improved graphics and load times, and yet Nintendo is still pulling this anti-consumer b.s.

Reviewer could have just said "I don't like Front Mission games, so I did not like this" and saved themselves quite a bit of time.
Re: Site News: So, Where's Our Harvestella Review?
@SwitchedOn_Games "With NL though, they have a team, are a respectable Nintendo outlet and assume do very hansomely from advertising."

Re: Front Mission 1st: Remake Finally Locks In Release Date On Switch
@tho_mi I'd say go for it. Advance Wars-like SRPG gameplay with the mech customization of Armored Core.

Re: Memory Pak: Making New Memories With Earthbound In 2022
@RadioShadow Super Mario RPG is a wonderful game, but in comparison to its ilk, has a real "baby's first RPG" feel to it. Just way too easy.
