@Yosti It's also our decision if we want to play or buy it as well and if they're just going to alienate a very large portion of the Playerbase well I don't need to say anymore. The developers of both Ori games added a difficulty select there's no reason at all why Team Cherry can't do it here.
They still didn't adjust or add a difficulty select so I'm still not interested. Until they do but I know they stubbornly won't I stubbornly refuse to go near it ever again. I got to act 3 and by the time I did I was just washed out.
Probably something to do with the Netflix animation. As for another Crash game I wouldn't mind but please don't pad it out like Crash 4 because 100% that game was pure murder.
Dying to play this. It'll be interesting to see how it performs when compared to Mario Kart World which was just a big disappointment to me personally and Sonic Racing Crossworlds.
Glad I decided not to buy this and stick with the original. I still play Battle for Neigjbourville and Garden Warfare 2 from time to time, I would recommend those over this if you're a newcomer.
Sonic Rumble though admittedly it's starting to grate more than Fall Guys because of stupid ring limits in place bad level design and appalling monetisation. Sonic Racing Crossworlds Hyrule Warriors Age of Imprisonment Ninja Gaiden 4 and I'll try and continue on with my Digimon Story Time Stranger Playthrough as well.
Happy birthday. I remember the site when it launched because I would often lurk before originally joining in 2013. Looking forward to the future and seeing what you have in store.
Brilliant racing game. I'm playing on Super Sonic speed difficulty now as Super Sonic against level 10 Rivals and it's just an exhilarating experience all around, very difficult though but exhilarating because of how fast it is. My only criticism though is Super Sonic speed difficulty isn't available online, it only goes up to Sonic speed.
I thought it was February too. I'm ok with it coming out sooner but I still think the Price is a bit steep though. I think half would have been reasonable.
@nhSnork The way I see it is this: Palworld got very popular in the beginning, Nintendo saw it as a threat and decided to take petty legal action. Now that the hype for Palworld has died down it's so apparent that the game was never a threat to Pokémon to begin with.
No good can ever come from a case like this. In the long run the only ones that will gain something is Nintendo, everybody else including you and I will lose. There's no telling the precedent this case could set in the event it goes their way.
This is great news once again. Nobody likes a disgusting Patent Troll and as much as I love Nintendo's games Nintendo themselves are just a huge Patent Troll. What they're doing here is disgusting and could set a terrible precedent moving forward. I don't get how anyone here can defend them knowing this tbh but whatever.
Sonic Superstars was the worst 2D Sonic game I have ever played. It starts off so well but then by the time you get to Lagoon City Zone everything just falls apart. Sonic Frontiers however I enjoyed every bit of it from start to finish.
@Deljo I see. I joined in 2007 and it used to be a nice Community but when Musk took over he just run it into the ground. I recommend using Bluesky even though that place isn't perfect either, what with people using lists in a malicious manner etc. It's certainly better than Twitter/X but it's far from perfect.
Hades 2 Astro Bot Ninja Gaiden 4 Pokèmon Legends ZA StarFox Zero and finally Sonic Racing Crossworlds. I'm admittedly not enjoying that game as much as I was due to the obnoxious rubber banding and insane item spam but I want to finish all the Grand Prix cups as I like to finish something I've started. Once all that's done I'll probably jump into the online again.
Oh how I miss the days where you only had one version of a game and that was it. Today you have Standard Deluxe Premium and God knows what else and I agree with the top commenter, announcing DLC months before the game is out makes it less tempting for me to buy at launch as well.
Most of these I have already and would easily recommend them. Vampire Survivors is one of those games where you get a day where you don't know what to play so you decide to play that and it ends up keeping you entertained for the entire day.
I played this on Apple Arcade and it was one of the most relaxing not to mention the cutest game I ever played. I bought it again on Steam fairly recently and plan to start all over again 😅
I'm actually thinking of going back to Mario Kart World. I was enjoying Sonic Racing Crossworlds but admittedly the rubber banding and constant item spam has just become insufferable. I thought Mario Kart World was bad with items but compared to Crossworlds items are actually pretty tame im comparison.
If I'm not on my PC I use YouTube on my Phone or Tablet so I can't see myself using it on Switch 2. Handy for those who don't have a Mobile device I suppose.
I was waiting for you to publish this. I heard about this earlier this morning and it brought a big smile to my face. As much as I like Nintendo's games what they're trying to do is basically eliminate the competition and no sane person here wants that. Competition is a healthy thing and encourages innovation, without it innovation just stalls.
This game got me through the Pandemic and the many lockdowns we endured here in Ireland at the time. This is the perfect excuse to jump back in again and €5.99 isn't much at all.
Lost interest in playing Pokémon online years ago and that hasn't changed now. I do play online from time to time but generally I just don't enjoy it that much like I used to as I just keep getting matched up with Competitive Players rather than Casual Players. Personally I think forcing people to play something they might not be that interested in just to obtain an in game item that can easily be obtained in game is quite frankly pretty disgusting.
While I didn't mind it personally I think the biggest issue people had with WIlds was the way everything seemed to me much more simplistic compared to previous games.
With the cancellation of Scalebound and now Perfect Dark plus the continuing lack of exclusives I'm sorry but I don't believe a word that comes out of their mouth anymore. It's just talk and nothing else.

I don't understand the negativity here tbh.

Great Review. I like how you went into such detail because I was on the fence with this game.
I'll be purchasing it this evening when I get home now.

Brilliant games with some brilliant aka over the top fight sequences. An easy recommendation if you haven't played them before.
Re: "Jill / Chris Would Be More Befitting" - Resident Evil's Obsession With Lady D. Is Getting Fans Riled Up
I'm not bothered one way or the other. What I do find weirder than this though is the fact people are still using Twitter/X.
