Re: Star Wars: Hunters Servers To Close Later This Year

ParadoxFawkes

Hmm played it a couple times.. The game was pretty polished...but was also repetitive and boring and the whole live service part...you can tell they did their homework to try and set that shop up to be as inticing as possible, lots of color and wow look at this and dumb currencies...reminded me a lot of cod mobile which goes super hard on the microtransaction stuff even more so than warzone and the yearly console release... But maybe its time they stop trying to make the next fortnite and get off the damn free to play model

Re: Opinion: The Best Tony Hawk Game Is Grinding Back, And I Can Only Hold My Breath

ParadoxFawkes

Um actually they did make a dumb jackass Tony hawk in underground 2 which was the worst game in the entrire series not counting tony hawk 5 because no one played it...sorry...post skate 1-2-3 no one ever played any new tony hawks .... Underground 1 deserves a remake ...the second one had good remakes of past levels but beyond that was complete garbage...i remember alot of not funny stuff and poo..... Even though i loved jackass and Viva la bam was just meh before the whole reality tv show thing took over....i played all the tony hawks up to project 8...which was the beginning of the end to some but underground 2 was embarrassing...I lift a prayer up for those guys in jackass and etc... they have not done well in life post jackass..hope Bam comes around

Re: Opinion: It's Taken 30 Years, But 'Terminator 2D' Could Right A Childhood Wrong

ParadoxFawkes

I was about 5 or less when i first saw terminator 2 back in the early 90s definitely probably was too early..anyways last week i watched it with my 13 year old and the next day i saw the trailer for the new t2 game.. both of us are excited...and i disagree that this game would of existed back then... The games we had then sum up the era... crummy movie tie in or not its what it was....also these modern "retro" games play super heavy on nostalgia to give us that dopamine hit (here's lookin at you Shredder's Revenge)

Re: Looks Like Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 + 4 On Switch Will Require A Mandatory Download

ParadoxFawkes

Not sure why this stuff surprises anyone... I stopped bothering with physical on switch as its no point and you generally pay more for it, also the convenience of a portable console is to have games ready to go...i can only bring 10 games with me anywhere physically unless i want to pack my physical game case... But pc is alll digital and overtime i see no point in it anymore...we pretend we're gonna sit here trying to play these games 25 years later, as what I've seen on PlayStation its easier to transfer your digital collection to the next console than it is to sit there and pop in games to check for a license everytime annnnnd the game itself has to be downloaded anyways... Sorry physical is not gonna last forever which is bullsh*t but its the way it is.... Thank God for emulation

Re: Review: NYXI Hyperion 2 - Are These Really "The Ultimate Replacement" For Your Switch Joy-Con?

ParadoxFawkes

While these look good they feel a bit late to the market, i primarily play my switch in handheld and have 3 other "joy cons" ; the original split pads, which have no features whatsoever, a great pair of chinese binboks that have gyro, wireless and rumble and a smaller pair of the split pads which are my go to, now with switch 2 on the horizon no way am i investing anymore into my oled switch

Re: Digital Foundry Digs Into Switch 2's 4K Upscaling Potential As Patents Inspire More Speculation

ParadoxFawkes

I understand news is slow but why do we need multiple multiple repetitive articles saying the same ol crap over and over again... speculation and just rumours... like why even post when you're just mumbling over the same information again and again ...like this has to be the 3rd to 5th article in like 2 years talking about switch 2 upscaling since it leaked i dont know a year or two ago about what Nintendo was planning...

Re: Opinion: My Daughter Made Me Realise That Mario Wonder's Difficulty Options Need Work

ParadoxFawkes

I dont know maybe i feel kids are too spoiled in videogames these days...my dad bought me a SNES when I was 5 and my brother and I couldn't get past the first couple levels in Super Mario World... probably for a couple years atleast... eventually we go on to finding every single secret and beating the game multiple times, still was fun ...perhaps your daughter can just play the way she enjoys or you can show her how fun and awesome the game is playing with Yoshi that she may prefer it ...

Re: The Switch eShop Is A Nightmare, So We've Made Our Own "Better eShop"

ParadoxFawkes

Cant beat deku deals for price tracking, wishlisting, custom lists and comparing prices to PlayStation and Xbox, sale updates, links to reviews and howlongtobeat, and to directly buy from the eshop... Not sure this site doesn't promote it, while complaining every year about the eshop , as its the best way to search and shop... Long live Dekudeals

Re: Video: Antonblast Switch eShop Review - Is This Wario Land-Inspired Indie Worth It?

ParadoxFawkes

I struggle with these wannabe indie games that literally steal everything nostalgic and give us the same ol, Nintendo invented many a things and genres and styles and even they are carful to retread the same ground gameplay wise...even tho zelda and mario have had the same stories repeated for 30 years but indies that are so frickin plentiful of metroidvanias and zeldalikes and even wannabe papermarios i won't give any of these a chance ever because its so much b-vibes i rather play the inspiration instead....and good for those who crave these types of games but I rather watch Star Wars instead of Spaceballs...(Even those Spaceballs is great) because it makes the original content so so much better and knockoffs ..even those very divinely inspired...are still knockoffs.... like why rip off warios bizzare style to give us bizaro superman?

Re: Ubisoft Closes Two Studios And Will Reportedly Lay Off Hundreds Of Employees

ParadoxFawkes

X defiant shouldn't of focused on skins and battle passes and should of focused on gameplay balancing, maps and guns ..but yetttttt they think everyone plays these because they want the next overwatch or fortnite.. good riddance tired of trying out these crap games only to be disappointed... but cod does need some good competition as the lame skins and battlepasses ruin the frickin experience

Re: Nintendo Expands Switch Online's Game Boy Library With Another Classic

ParadoxFawkes

Cool.. the switch online offers me peanuts compared to whats available elsewhere for free... i feel stupid paying for old games via subscription when i have bought many in the past and have thousands of games available via roms and with more filters, features, upgrades and even extra levels and cheats...but yet im supposed to have a party when they crap these out one nugget at a time....

Re: Talking Point: What Would Be The Ideal Way To Play DS Games On 'Switch 2'?

ParadoxFawkes

Honestly with emulation you get options....two side by side or a button to swap between screens, or like using cemu on pc i can have a lil pop up screen for the second screen where i can place and resize.... I dont know why they need to reinvent the wheel when the community has done so much to deal with stuff like this ... Or like many games that have been ported to switch they do a work around, and any game that heavily uses the stylus...like phantom hourglass are better left to the past... I still have a 3ds thats modded and with a ds cartridge that has hundreds of games.... Alot of the ds and 3ds library is nonsense like cellphone type games, shovelware or whatever which also can be left in the past

Re: Palworld Dev May Have Found An Unexpected Ally In Nintendo's Lawsuit: An Old GTA 5 Mod

ParadoxFawkes

Why are they missing their eyes!? I hope palworld wins this, videogames all copy eachother and build off one another to make better and better games, Palworld is great but it definitely doesn't play like a pokemon game more like a base building ,survival ,foragining and crafting game.... If there's anything to sue about it would be the designs of the pals, they look indistinguishable from Pokemon characters

Re: Reaction: Rest Easy, Folks, Your Switch Backlog Ain't Going Anywhere

ParadoxFawkes

I really hope once I we get our switch backlog onto switch next or switch advanced or whatever that we will assume the boosts in performance without needing the endless comparison videos and confirmations and lists of who and what is better because obviously these games will play better.... Same nonsense articles about the ps5 pro right now....do i really need 75 videos showing each game and its slightly better resolution and frame rates?

Re: Anniversary: The Legend Of Zelda: The Minish Cap Turns 20 Today

ParadoxFawkes

Favorite 2d zelda based off of style and art direction alone.........as the gameplay of left up right down attacking for alllll of 2d zeldas i would definitely give this game top 5 love.....but yet my top 5 include botw, ocarina, wind waker, minish cap, and twilight...tho that game is lesser than wind waker by a long shot

Re: Every New Game In Atari 50's Final DLC Expansion Has Been Revealed

ParadoxFawkes

Started with the snes but also nes generation.... Wtf is the point of buying anything older?? Not to be mean but my miyoo mini plus can play every okay and crappy game from the "atari" generation as can pretty much every device these days...i dont understand the nostalgia...i dont even like to play nes games, tho I like the idea of them its super boring... But yet people get exited for these barely gaming games from this generation...like wtf would anyone under 40 care for any of this
