Everybody killed it with their performances in Requiem, especially Angela as Grace and Nick as Leon. Victor Gideon was also an awesome villain and his actor is a large part of that.
Nick is absolutely killing it as Leon, he did a fantastic job in RE9 and he's quickly becoming my favorite Leon VA (Paul Mercier will always have a special place in my heart tho).
@OrtadragoonX Capcom actually confirmed that both OG and Remakes are canon in the way of "story changes from Remake dont override the OG games and their storytelling/events". Don't take the remakes as the full replacements, as confusing as that is - both timelines count and they just gonna pick whatever they want from both of them lol
Just finished it today on Switch 2 and it's an absolutely fantastic entry as a long time fan of the series and my personal GOTY so far. Hoping and waiting for DLC to come sooner rather than later!
@mlt the only differences seem to be the resolution is a bit lower, shadow quality is slightly reduced and the draw distance for grass and stuff like that is decreased. Otherwise textures, characters, lighting, reflections etc all look the same.
@mlt few videos already came out and it generally runs great and holds steady 60. At most it can drop to ~58fps for a second because of world streaming as you explore it.
Do people in the comments only know Daniel Craig or something? This game is covering Bond's first missions and he 1000000% gives off the vibe of a younger Sean Connery/Pierce Brosnan/Roger Moore style Bond which is more goofy and fantastical filled with gadgets (Which i'm all for personally as i'm tired of Craig style Bond)
@IronMan30 @TheWokesterGamer @AG_Awesome Vol 1 just dropped an update and the description for it says that it comes with Nintendo Switch 2 enhancements, downloading rn!
EDIT: MGS2 and 3 now run at 60fps and have resolution options!
Ngl this feels like the score is getting dragged way down because of the actor controversy.
Outside of that, the only complaint seems to be "it's poorly paced and there's too much to do" which idk, to give a Yakuza game 6/10 for that feels odd.
Are you sure about the framerate? Every other preview says it was targeting 60 and from the off screen gameplay it does looks like it. Unless there's a toggle in the options?
"Considering that its predecessor shifted three million copies in its first week on the market, we imagined this would come out of the gate a little stronger."
Uhhhhhhh, why? Age of Calamity launched during the pandemic when Switch 1 had like 80 million consoles in the wild, meanwhile Age of Imprisonment sold 1 million units with 17 million Switch 2 consoles.
I feel like Nintendo counting Switch 1 and 2 SKUs seperately hurts games like Metroid. You can see they count them separately with Legends Z-A for example.
For all we know Prime 4 did sell over a million units combined but it didn't sell over a million on each platform meaning it didn't get reported on at all.
@GetontheStiix yeah I sometimes have this problem with Nintendo Life articles as well, they name it "this game is delayed on Switch 1/2!" making it sound like they're the only affected platforms when it's delayed in general.
Like what is the point of even naming platforms in the header, just say the game is delayed, we're on Nintendo Life - we know what platforms you're reporting about lol
Yeah it can't be Reunion because Crisis Core remakester is already called "Reunion" and I don't think they wanna overuse that word to death. Out of all words presented I feel like Return feels the most appropriate.
@HalfAWorldAway not much, they allow you to save and load outfits, button presets and colors to them and then share it or use it when you go over to your friends house to play on their system for example.
@WiltonRoots speaking of that, this article also forgets to mention that Switch 2 was the best selling hardware in terms of both units and revenue for the month of December and it's about 50% ahead of the Switch 1 in the same timespan.
So much for the "5 year old PS5 is outselling the Switch 2!!!!!!111!!11!" comments lol
Remember all the doomposting and "stocks dropping" just because of a single random report from Chris Dring a couple of weeks ago? Sure feels silly now.
@jolteon23 hmmmm kinda yeah? All Yakuza games are so good that it's hard to not recommend playing the previous entries, especially since you see characters grow with each game. And don't forget Yakuza 0 as well lol

Re: Japanese Charts: Resident Evil Requiem Scares Off The Competition
@KociolekDoSyta the Switch 2 version also sold out at most Japanese retailers right away, with the closest new shipment date being March 5th.
Seems like Capcom undershipped and had only 40k physical copies available at launch.

@stevep for it to appear docked you need a 120fps capable tv and the 120fps output activated in the Switch 2 system settings.
If you're in portable mode then it's available in game settings straight away.

What a weird conclusion to make lol
Re: Here's A Look At The Best-Selling Switch And Switch 2 Games So Far
@Skunkfish it's also the fact that Nintendo counts Switch 1 and 2 SKUs seperately.
It might've sold over a million units with 2 platform combined but since neither version sold over a million by itself - it's not reported on.
Re: Switch 2 Storms Towards Its Forecast Target With 17.37 Million Units Sold
I feel like Nintendo counting Switch 1 and 2 SKUs seperately hurts games like Metroid. You can see they count them separately with Legends Z-A for example.
For all we know Prime 4 did sell over a million units combined but it didn't sell over a million on each platform meaning it didn't get reported on at all.

Re: Poll: Final Fantasy 7 Remake Part 3 Has A Final Title, But What Could It Be?
