Well, it’s all fine and good (and this game is a must-have), but it certainly begs the question: if Doom: Eternal looks and runs almost perfect on Switch, why the hell do Serious Sam 3, Empire Of Sin and many others look like crap?!!!
Look, people. It's all very sad and all, but you have to understand that we live in a civilized world, which is regulated by laws. And if you want to honor someone and/or raise funds for charity while using someone else's IP, you have to do it RIGHT. They should have contacted Nintendo and tried to negotiate all possible solutions with them. Who knows? - maybe Nintendo would have supported they idea? But they've decided to do it independently and here's the logical result.
@sixrings I think both games are great, but objectively NFS is just another fun racing game while Pikmin is original, creative and also loads of fun. But comparing these two games is like comparing cheese to a table, you just don’t do that))
@VinniVinni well, SS2 did receive some mean reviews over the years, so I guess they decided that’s it’s not worth the investment. Pity, quite some time ago this game was my best guilty pleasure. Would love to see it on Switch.
Ah) Probably two years ago I made a wishlist of all the old games I want to see on the Switch - and Serious Sam was one of them. This is exciting news! But hold on... No love for Serious Sam 2? Oh, come on!! Yeah, it was kinda stupid and too colorful but still loads of fun!
I’ve been watching him since 2007, still one of the best youtubers around. And no, you don’t have to be 12 to enjoy some silly goofy fun and to laugh at really bad games. Gonna buy this ASAP!
Btw, I hope they’ll bring System Shock to Switch. I know it’s a real classic and that it has a setting right up my alley, but I still haven’t gotten around to playing it.
Yeah, so many judgmental people here. I'm sorry, but we don't know anything about the situation since we're not part of it and therefore can't be sure if anyone's telling the truth or if someone has a hidden agenda of sorts. I'm not willing to diss a guy - who am I to judge?
This is like the weirdest game that can come to Switch - so angry and violent. Basically, it completely goes against anything that Nintendo stands for. Never in a million years I'd imagine that I will be playing Postal on my Switch. And you know what? - this is awesome!!! Bring on the second one, please!!!
The first game made me realize that I'm sick and tired of the survival horror genre. They have to do something out of the ordinary with this one to lure me in...
@BulkSlash Yeah, me too. I've been purposefully ignoring the PC version in favor of the Switch one. Yeah, you may call me stupid for that, graphics and all, but Switch is my dear darling and I'd play any game on it))
I have never played any Monster Hunter games but Rise has caught my attention; I'll probably get it if my gaming schedule would be less crowded. I'm really digging that Empire Of Sin game and Hades is just perfect - like everything else by Supergiant games.
@Severian Well, I've enjoyed some of their stuff like Jessica Jones or Bojack Horseman... I've even sat through their recent Cursed series (which is btw better than everyone's saying - it's not a masterpiece by any means but it's a nice show to watch while eating pizza) but I will be the first one to say most of the stuff on Netflix is just boring. Filled with today's minority agenda (which, I guess, is a good thing but I really think that these issues should be integrated into the plot and not just thrown in at the last moment) and predictable plot twists, they leave me bored at best. The best example being The Umbrella Academy - pretty to look at but it puts me to sleep faster than any Phil Collins song.

Wow. Just a few month ago everyone was screaming with joy at everything related to Netflix. People called them progressive and the pinnacle of quality. But then, because of one misinterpreted show (which I didn't even see since I don't have any interest in it - so don't gang up on me), everyone's hating on them and pointing out all their obvious flaws. Seems a bit hypocritical, IMO.
God, why Illumination? This is probably the worst animation company nowadays. Why not Dreamworks? Yeah, they have also been making some pretty drivel stuff as of late, but they at least have a team of professionals and like... a budget. Pixar would be ideal for Nintendo but the odds of this partnership happening are extremely slim.
Well, I've recently lost all interest in survival horror games since, in most cases, they have little gameplay to offer and no repayable qualities whatsoever... And yeah, I've asked my girlfriend does she remember Blair Witch at all and she has honestly struggled with her memory to recall anything about this franchise.
@joey302 Well, yeah, but for some reason Limited Run and Super Rare don't experience the same severe delays. I've just received my copy of Old School Musical and Star Wars: Jedi Academy is presumably on it's way. So yeah, I don't have any trust for Strictly Limited nowadays. And yes, their prices are just super-iunflated. Yesterday I've ordered myself a copy of Ruiner and it only cost me 33 dollars...
I actually wanted to buy the first "classic" collection but decided that ordering it via Strictly Limited games is a gamble. I have two games pre-ordered via their site and received nothing in the end...

@BulkSlash Well, they've recently announced that it's coming pretty soon.
Re: Microsoft Has Just Bought Bethesda, Giving It Doom, Fallout, Elder Scrolls And Wolfenstein

Cool T-shirt though.
