TYRANACLES

I’ve canceled my preorder on this. This is the most confined a main Pokémon adventure has looked, the gameplay itself looks ok but I’m going to wait and see. Probably wait until there’s dlc all included as well with hopefully some new areas to explore.

@Ganner yeah the Top Gun dlc totally works for this. I actually found myself humming Danger Zone a few times I was rolling and weaving through the sky dodging rockets. Its a terrific flight sim, I’d love to play it with a flight controller.

@Dogorilla such a horrible game, and even somehow it has a whole slew of sequels with a new one on the way. It’s appalling really. Why oh why did the second chance genie smile on Bubsy and not something like little kings story, metal arms, freedom fighters, kickle cubicle, or I-Ninja??

@RiasGremory yep it’s my game of the year as well and I got a road block on that challenge also and haven’t attempted it again for sometime. There’s just too much to play and so little time.

I haven’t had a whole lot of time to play much of anything this weekend but I intend on making some more progress on ace combat 7.

The pikmin jingle did kind of give it away but at first I thought it was a tiny chibi robo, or a stealth mode chibi robo here. The little frog puppet also made me think of it.

Look guys it’s Gaten Matarazzo!!! We got Gaten Matarazzo here…See nobody cares.

@Ganner I’m looking at picking back up snow runner myself, it’s been months. I remember you had been playing Ace Combat 7, did you complete it? I started playing on it this weekend but I’m on a pretty frustrating mission right now.

I’m pretty divided on this game. The actual wrestling is pretty fun and you can have good matches it’s just we get the same game every year and they charge you so much for all the extra. You can’t buy a $100+ game anymore and get all of the content anymore. I usually wait for sales on these but this pack really only includes one new wrestler and a bunch of skins, I really just want a new experience in a wrestling game. Ultra pro Wrestling I wish could pick up a developer and give us a no mercy sequel the old timers have been churning for, that would be a fresh breath of air again.

So far I’ve beat Touryst which was an interesting little game, I loved its design but some of the platforming killed me.

Lego party will most likely get some play this evening as my daughter and I had a great time with it. I got stomped in it by her and the cpu which was kindve a suprise for me. I’m used to holding back a little to let her have that fighting chance but nope she took off and had absolutely no mercy on me.

I’d like to get the Mario galaxies out of the package and give 2 a whirl as well. It’s such a magical game.

This is one of my most anticipated games here. It reminds me a lot of the classic men beatem up with obviously a more diverse moveset, I could even say I wished that was toned down a bit, it’s almost a blend of X-men arcade with a marvel vs capcom combo system. I’m sure I’ll love it but the tagging in and out is a bit too over the top for me and does take away from the feel of surviving the waves of enemies being thrown at me as a lone hero or a tandem. Luckily that’s our own choice in how much we use the tag ins. The roster is very unique and by and large is more of the cosmic variety of heroes which works for this setting. Iron man and phoenix definitely fit here with the other recently announced black panther, silver surfer, ghost rider, and beta ray bill. More to come is always nice but I hope we get more levels first and foremost, we’ve got a great roster as is.

@Lord I’m wondering that to, I preordered it sometime ago and the box art didn’t list it as code in the box. Hopefully Dinkum gets a global release, I think it looks like a fun little game.

I wonder why my copy of galaxy 1 and 2 won’t arrive until December 28th? I’ll probably cancel that and try to pick it up this week in store. Dinkum I’m interested in checking out, that one slipped by me. There’s plenty here I’ll scoop up.

@JohnnyMind how are you liking Everybody’s Golf? I’ve preordered a physical but it won’t arrive anytime soon until the rest of my order is filled. I’m hoping I’ll like it but I’ve heard very conflicting things.

I won’t have much time to game this weekend due to all the fall festivals we’re going to but later I’ll play a bit of Overwatch and maybe some Kirby Forgotten Lands Starcrossed and/or Hyrule Warriors Age of Calamity with my daughter.

Maybe Pokémon should go back to 2d or something closer to it. The bite sized games were fine enough and at least offered an open world that was smooth and palatable.

I wonder why at least some ren and stimpy games didn’t make it. There were quite a few. Veediots, time warp, and stumps invention I remember liking pretty well and the rewind feature would make some of these beatable. They could do a collection of just ten and stumps honestly. There’s so many if they include even the gameboy and game gear games.

At first glance I really did like this but if we really are moving to a more open world Metroid, I do fear it could water things down for the experience. I’m kindve suprised of all things for samus to pilot, her ship wouldn’t be the first one to get.

I can appreciate this game for what it is a tough as nails adventure game that rewards those that really put the time into it. I like something a little snappier and easier to get around in. This and hollow knight I never liked the map in these, even when you get some upgrades to it, I think I just have so much to play and this one takes time to really learn the combat and the map. Info hoe to one day give this and hollow knight more attention, I see a good quality game here with an exceptional price point.

Well I’m glad it wasn’t Randy Pitchford handling the PR on this one as it’d probably have been a snub comment like “Deal with it”. I’ll get this game on down the road when the bugs are squashed and the dlc is all there at a good price. It does look fun.

@Zuljaras well if you do try them I hope you like them. Of those, gauntlet dark legacy and spartan I have fond memories of playing on the gc the most. Both are dungeon crawler games similar to Diablo.

@Zuljaras I’d like to recommend you a few games if you haven’t played them or can find them for a good buy, nightmare creatures n64/ps1, hunter the reckoning gc/ps2/xbox, spartan total warrior gc/ps2/xbox, and gauntlet dark legacy gc/ps2/xbox. Also have you tried blade chimera, it looks similar to castlevania but I haven’t tried it myself but was considering it in the sale.

This weekend I’ll continue silksong, drop in for a few Overwatch mystery heroes matches, and my daughter and I’ve been playing savage planet on gamepass. Happy weekend everyone hopefully you’re happy with the direct news. I may be most excited for galaxy 2 at the moment since it’s so soon to release.

@Suketoudara to each their own, I tried these both years ago and the movement felt way too slippery and with one hit deaths and gliding into pitfalls appearing from off screen, the games just weren’t fun then and really poor now. The rewind feature should help a LOT here tho.

I was pretty happy with this one. Prime 4 does look good to me with the bike. Any bounty hunter really looks more menacing on a big mean hog. Raising Arizona the lone biker of the apocalypse is the epitome of exactly what I mean.

Beyond that it’s great for me to have a way to play Mario galaxy 2 again, my favorite two 3d Mario games there. The Yoshi game looks adorable and I’ll want to try it, I just hope it has some challenge and is fun to play. Mario wonder I may get again if it adds something for single player; a new character and some new stages would be worth it for me. Fire emblem looked like a much better game in style than the last game and I love that it calls back to 3 houses. Pokémon ZA I’m still not sold on, I just really don’t like catching Pokémon in the drab old city but Pokopia has my interest. Dragon quest 7, 1&2, mortal kombat, and Hades 2 I’ll for sure get physical on the switch 1. Hyrule warriors looks even better than the last with more warriors and tools to use, my daughter and I have been playing thru these lately and it’s good fun. Tomodotchi life can’t get here soon enough. Dinkum is the first I’ve heard about it, but it looks great with friends. I really hope we see some dangerous wild snakes in the bush. Mario Tennis and Kirby will be worth my time.

Virtua Fighter, Suika game, and Storm Lancers are a maybe for me. Virtual boy is cool but I doubt I’ll buy a peripheral to play the thing, 3ds bad on the eyes anyway. Also I had heard Megaman Star force collection is a thing now from the Japan direct. How’d we miss that? That is a definite buy for me and one step closer to legends hopefully. I’m still waiting on more castlevanias making their way over. We still need SOTN and Rondo of blood and I’d consider the 3d games but they’re not a necessity for me. Lots of stuff to look forward to tho.

I’m hoping Metroid has a release this year, the first two primes always released around October I think. I’d also like to see a big nice Nintendo suprise, of course I want a new mario/zelda but it’s time for a new Fzero or animal crossing I think.

Off hand I can’t really think of another game that has ever accomplished multiple installments and seeing little to no improvement. How did this game survive this long, and there’s still another Bunsy on the horizon, that one could be good but it’s truly stunning Bubsy is still standing when their are other great one hit wonders that just never got a sequel. Metal Arms, Kickle Cubicle, Freedom Fighters, Tonic Troubles, Mischief Makers, and Blast Corps just to name a few.

Well they are building a fan base that’s for sure with their good will. I am holding out for a physical game for this one if it happens. I’m sure I’ll pay more but it’ll be worth it.

I picked up man eater for the Xbox on sale and have been having a great time with it being a master hunter shark. I’m actually quite afraid of sharks so being behind the eyes of the fish torpedo is kind of nice but does me no help stepping foot in an ocean again.

I will also play a bit on Overwatch with the new character they’ve added and for switch maybe Mario kart 8 with some family that have come down. It’s a long Labor Day weekend for me so I’m happy with that. We’re going to an apple fest today so Im going to get good and loaded on some cider. Happy weekend to all you brave warriors!

I am shocked mouse controls weren’t added for switch 2. I’d love to see this, roller coaster tycoon, and the civilization games get that.

Ah well we got 1-4 on here so that’s good enough. I would’ve loved to seen gold as I’ve never played it but it always looked so good.

This will be nice to see after finishing DK I’ve got another Nintendo game to look forward to. I bet we will get the GC game online soon to follow.

This is so cool. They really are going all out on this release.

@Cipher36 hmm well I’m in the same boat as you as far as waiting awhile on these. I ordered them both from limited run so yeah it’ll be awhile but I have plenty to occupy me luckily.

Oh just give us fallout already. Not sure about this. I can’t say I’ve played a game quite like this but I do like to have a little more unit and control of my character than dialog.

I’ll be getting OFF for sure tonight.

Hi I’m Randy Pitchfork and my game is way more worth your $70 than any Nintendo cart racer! If you can’t afford it play some old games losers…I really don’t want to support anything this guy does and I’d really be surprised if they can do anything better than 2 anyway.

I hope that’s the extent of something not quite right with these as I have preordered both and was looking forward to these playing well. The cover art does look like a terrible Now that’s what I call music volume tho.

This and the Conduit were disappointing Nintendo fps releases I really had high hopes for at one point. Each game had a great concept I just think they fell short on the execution. I would like to see Geist online so that maybe they could tighten things up a bit so I could give it another go.

@Ellie-Moo it is good and worth a buy in my opinion. I do also think the game could use a few more levels over characters but all in all I was happy with it. The 3 worlds you get each contain I think 3 stages within, with a boss battle on the 3rd level. It plays very well and can be challenging.

These two are a bit weaker in selection for me but still good enough I’ll get them. Magician Lord is one I’m still waiting on.

Oh yeah I’m all over this. A classic like Terminator deserves the very best. I’d like to see this team give us a good Robocop and Aliens next.

@JayJ it is a bygone era along with car combat games and rhythm instrument games. I think in the case of light fun games it’s just very expensive with modern tvs these days. Duckhunt is one of the few big Nintendo games that really has been left in the dark for sometime despite its popularity.

This has me thinking, how often is it appropriate to do an anniversary for this form of entertainment? It seems at 20 years on there’s an anniversary for something like this every 10 years with 5 maybe every other. Mario deserves it tho. For me I like the weird Mario idea. I’d like to see something all new and off the beaten path similar to a Mario sunshine for the next big outing. Realistically we won’t be getting an all new adventure just yet. I could see Mario sunshine coming to the online pass and maybe a Mario galaxy 2 switch 2 edition which would be really nice to see.

@Teksette you could add Tanuki Justice, Kemono Heroes, and the Ninja Gaiden trilogy to the list.

I made it through DK Bananzas story yesterday and what a masterpiece. This game did not let me down in any way whatsoever. It has great length and it seems to have some interesting post game content. I will return to it in the future to get some more bananas and clothing upgrades I’m sure. I really really hope we get another donkey Kong like this down the line. Some really cool twists in the story and I loved the the boss battles, even if most were pretty easy and just all about smashing. Such a satisfying game that I sunk most of my time into, now I don’t know where I’ll go next.

@Jedrus_Lilac for those who aren’t fine with game keys, speaking with your wallet could influence a change. The Switch 2 era has only just begun afterall and some third party games are coming to us in physical form like mortal Kombat kollection and Sonic ceossworlds.

This is a very nice suprise. Probably the best announcement from this showcase for me.

I love katamari! This will be some great wacky fun. I hope there’s a coop option, I can’t get anyone to play vs with me.

If it’s a physical release for either switch or the 2 I’ll bite in this. I’ve never played these that much, only a bit of garden warfare way back in the day and thought it was pretty fun.

This looks pretty cool to me since you seem to have a mainstay character to build on throughout like most traditional rpgs. I liked the other to pretty well from a gameplay perspective but I did not like bouncing around the map with a different character each chapter.

I gave t beat it yet but am past the second elder but so far I’ve been blown away. I’d say a 10 from me. It feels bigger and better than anything Mario has done for me since probably 64. I love this game and it’s so new and interesting to me. It feels like a really good 3d Mario to me but with splatoon weirdness. This is the first 3d donkey Kong I’ve enjoyed. I think I will try to 100% this game easily because it doesn’t feel like a chore at all to play. It is so fun and looks and runs great.

Some nice additions here, I’d really like to try animal forest + n64 but really animal crossing GameCube takes priority, I wonder if they’ll ever give that to us and with the cool little nes games sprinkled in there. I don’t believe dk64 on the Wii U had the original donkey Kong on there and can’t remember if excitebike 64 had the new game either. I don’t see why not honestly if you’re paying for a sub anyway. Smash bros will be cool but please don’t neglect melee.
