Well played it for awhile...it's pretty trash lol. Feel bad for the folks they duped into paying full price for a pay to win knockoff kart racer.
Horrible small character pool at $15 a pop, has the UI of a mobile game. The musical not bad at least.
I did find it amusing that if you don't finish an online match, it doesn't exist the game or anything, you'll just be sitting there alone on the track when you come back lol.
It's a pretty good game but there's a lot of mechanics behind it that blow hard. I've never seen such short "seasons" for such expensive battle passes for one. You don't need it obviously but they do contain OP cards for that season.
I got bored pretty fast but might play again one day in the future to see if they added enough to make it not so tedious.
This and the speedstorms on the same day? Huh pretty weird for one of the companies to not move the date but I guess these games are apples and oranges.
Don't know anything about the anime but worth a shot at that price.
Bring back actual difficulty and I'll care. You can finish most Mario games while half asleep these days so there's no satisfaction in doing anything in them when literal 5 year olds can do just as well they're so easy.
And they go back to destroy...every..barrel..in this video lol. It's not an RPG yo, there's no point breaking everything for coins you can't use on anything
Glad they worked harder on it than they did 6, as I do love the franchise. That said I still need to finish 5 and then spend insane crazy amounts of hours post game so I've got awhile before I think about getting this.
Another one? Not sure what else there is to say that isn't in the hundred other books/documentaries.
@Not_Soos You realize inclusivity is just extra credit for sites like this right? It's a selling point, not something they hold near and dear. Check out IGNs review of Blue beetle. Gushing about the Latino representation in the film, hardly talks about the movie. ✅ them boxes.
@JayJ When all you have to do is design a border and slap a jpg as a background and play an audio file to call it an event, it's not that surprising at all..
@T317 The first one was on sale for $7.50 (now 5) all the time, so they weren't really making anything from new players and most people spending that little aren't going to spend extra for dlc on old games. So slap a little bit of fresh paint on it, call it 2 and the cycle continues.
They realize they can port their project out of unity, right? They changed nost of what pissed people off anyway, this sounds like they were doing a poor job at porting it and used the unity thing as an excuse to can it
Ahh I can see why you've conveniently left out the review scores on this article haha. When it's 5/10s and such, doesn't look good on Nintendough, so leave those out when usually you've got the 8s (which just means 'pretty decent' these days) in bold at top.
I think the useful information in some of these are things like "I’m still playing a game that feels like it’s going to shatter at any moment …".
Tried playing that new Avatar: Quest for Balance game for about an hour but I'm pretty certain it was originally a mobile game ported over to sell for $50 because it's baaaad. It even has those Subway Surfer style three lane mobile game levels in it.
Evolings is pretty disappointing. Very repetitive fast
Ahh yes buying a near identical gizmo that emulates games instead of using the gizmo you already carry with you everywhere to play the exact same 3DS games...makes perfect sense to me!
Good to see common people's voice making a difference in these matters as of late like with making Bud Light go broke. It's not much but it's something in an increasingly hostile greedy corporate run world.
Weird..never heard of someone experiencing FOMO from feeling compelled to talk about it on social media with strangers...?
Sooo glad I'm not addicted to that nonsense like the rest of the somnabulist society.
@abbyhitter @FredsBodyDouble Fear Of Missing Out. Typically used in games with limited time skins so people feel they have to buy now or miss out forever.
I know nothing about this anime and already play Fortnite but this kinda seems like it would be fun if it has gyro aiming for some of the skills like the whip and whatnot, might give it a try if it does.
It's been a wild ride watching corporate greed destroy every aspect of the world in my short life time. The fact that it's getting faster and more hostile makes it even crazier.
Eh assymetrical survival games aren't all that great anyway. Make a REAL Evil Dead game, one that focuses on a campy story that is the heart of the series.
Datamining is so damn lame, I shouldn't have to always skip over things while browsing because some neckbeard wants his 15 seconds of fame for shifting through thousands of lines of code to see something a week (or days in some cases) early.
I don't care for "remasters" as they're usually a cash grab by my god did they redo SO much in this. It's absolutely beautiful how much effort they put into it.
The "particularly on an OLED model" sheisser cracks me up though everytime.
RIP new ideas, new IPs. It's all a money printing machine now they realized they can use AI to upscale old games and sell them all over for full price. Never would have dreamed in 2023 the big games would all be.. From 2000. Plus sequels, who doesn't love endless sequels?! I know I certainly can't wait to see Fast and Furious 11!

It was mostly just fat that needed trimmed within the mobile game branches, but putting Fortnite in the articles always works to add confusion!

Re: Reminder: Disney Speedstorm Is Finally Free-To-Play On Switch
Cool cool they've stopped swindling people out of cash to beta test or whatever their weird paid early access shenanigans were.
Will give it a try now that it's free, as was always intended.
@SBandy1 That sounds like 5 star advice from a 5 star man.
