Brilliant news. And I normally would be ecstatic about the release, and have it pre-ordered. But I did pre-order GTA upon its announcement, and I'm not gonna get burned again. Let's just see what the reviews say first.
Have we been reduced to comparing the hype generated by a trailer last week to one years ago? Seriously? I get it, we're all excited about the imminent release of Tears of the Kingdom. And we can't wait to finally play it. But this is rather spurious and trite. I thought this site was a bit above this level of churnalism, but nope.
For the record, the first trailer for Breath of the Wild has never been beat by those of us who saw it. "Open world Link!!!!" And our expectations were surpassed.
@LUIGITORNADO that's what i thought when I watched the direct announcement. Couldn't accept it was a Fire Emblem game until the title appeared. Christ, I'm sounding like the naysayers who cried over the look of Wind Waker. And that is still my favourite Zelda, (where's the switch version gaddamnit)
Golden Sun, Eternal Darkness, Skies of Arcadia, All the pre switch 3d Zeldas, Metroid Prime, Rogue Galaxy just to wreck peoples heads and Baiten Kaitos Not much to want, really? My wallet is gonna be taking a right battering.
@RainbowGazelle
Some people may not have the past 3 generations of Nintendo console.
I had a Gamecube when it came out. Loved the funky little box of joy. But never had a Wii or Wii U.
And I want to play a HD port of Wind Waker and Twilight Princess on my Switch on the way to work, goddamn it.
Hazy memory, blame old age. But, earliest name I recall is tied between Chuckie Egg and Mr Wong's Loopy Laundry on the MSX. (Had an Atari before it, but no idea what games.)
@nkarafo No, it was not a spiritual sequel, it was a direct continuation of the story. Have fond memories of playing it when it first came out. (Over the shoulder 3d game might be what you mean by spiritual to the 2.5d platformer original)
If you aren't noticing the camera then the programmer is clearly doing his/her job right. Unless of course the scenario requires you to be aware of the camera. Context really.
@DarkTron, I bought the original physical from Amazon UK with no issues. I'm in Ireland too. Have absolutely no idea why it's not allowed here, Thought it was a similar issue that Dying Light had "Germany". Got that too from Amazon Uk. Both are PAL version (Is PAL/NTSC/SECAM even a thing anymore? Honestly?)
"Why does the Vita version other than a couple of frame drops looks way better than that parody of « definitive edition » ??????" graphical elements. I'd be more concerned with the muddy/blurred look on the switch version.
"it's advised to go file a report via Rockstar's support pages, where everything is "collated and considered"." And where on that link should players air their grievances? I see no mention of GTA Trilogy the Definitive Edition

Re: New Tomb Raider I-III Remastered Update Finally Makes Keys Easier To Spot
Will they ever fix the annoying controls/camera position? Fell off ledges too many times due to the weird choices used in the "modern" control scheme.
