wild shadow drop. I'm into it. I have soooo much to play right now, though. Limited Run games is doing a physical release...wondering if the wait would be worth it since I'm swamped anyway.
Well that is an incredibly intriguing trailer. I'm all about Ocean exploration based games so this just might fit the bill. Looking forward to hearing more about it.
Not sure I'm seeing the ASMR connection at all, but whatever.
Not that I really believe the source, but good. Someone ought to do something meaningful with the franchises. Yes, I'd rather Nintendo be involved somehow, but if that doesn't happen so be it.
Honestly don't even care. Not like I was ever going to go. This surely means any company can still give us some reveals/streams around the same time as E3 would have been, right? Nintendo was ahead of the curve on this stuff. The overblown press conferences are such a waste anyway.
And anyway, health and safety concerns trump all that junk anyway.
This game is absolutely SUBLIME. If you're looking for a twinstick arcade shooter you can't go wrong. It feels fantastic and frantic and plays wonderfully.
Having a really good time. I'm not great at it, but appreciate its (seemingly, at least) focus on well timed strikes and such as opposed to super combo heavy/special move gameplay. I'm digging it.
I imported 3 of the Japanese collections a while ago and never noticed/had any issues with input lag at all. Has something happened in this version or am I just crazy?
Words can't really describe how excited I am. I played the PC version over all these years and each episode left me more in love with the game than the last. It has been so long now, that I plan on getting the Switch version and starting over just to soak in the amazing atmosphere all over again. It's just such a beautiful, mysterious experience.
Played a bunch of hours on the PS4 and it is quite fun with friends. The frame rate was also pretty bad there. Will probably download this version and transfer my character.
anytime I see those super cheap games on sale I think about buying them because they are only cents, but then I ask myself how much I'd actually play it and the answer is "probably almost not at all" so I don't buy. That snowboarding game is currently on sale for a buck or whatever and I'm interested in it because I was interested in it previously, but even then, I dunno...
I might bite. Always wanted to give it a go (despite its initial mixed reception) and it seems to have changed a fair bit. I'm also a sucker for physical copies, so if I feel like I can spare the money I might preorder.
I got my copy on Friday (somehow) and have been nothing but impressed by it so far. I'll be playing in a combo of portable and docked for sure, but I got it because the long dark Canadian winter is almost upon us and It is going to be my curl up on the couch game. While I also watch hockey.
Downloaded it the day it came out and played through the first cup, or whatever they are called. Then a few others slowly over the next few weeks.
It's exactly what I expected and I neither really love it or hate it. I'll keep it installed because it is a okay way to waste a few minutes when I have the need. I have no desire to spend any real money on it and never will.
What a lovely experience. This is a beaitiful audio/visual showpiece. Played through the first time in about an hour and that's exactly what I was looking for. will probably go back and try and get some gold scores and play with a nice pair of headphones on.
I think it looks fantastic and I'm for sure going to give it a shot. There are of course better ways to get fit, but using this to supplement my regular exercise seems like it's going to be FUN because I just love the idea of an adventure/RPG that also gets me moving a bit.
I recognize it entirely for what it is, and from what I've seen, I dig it.
Took a shot on this yesterday (this review helped, thanks!) and finished it this morning and I have to say it is one of my favorite games of the year, if not the very top.
I loved it from the start. The atmosphere, the mystery and the feel of maintaining your vehicle is precisely my kind of stuff.
BOOOO! but not surprising. also, sidenote: anyone else buy this and mildly annoyed that it is just labeled as "Hotline Miami" when playing it? (like what it shows on your profile page) Also, on the parental controls app, which I use to track time played, it doesn't show up AT ALL. it's weird and feels like a mistake was made somewhere.
I'm incredibly impressed. I've never played the game but getting to play a bunch of it portable is a huge plus which is why I'll probably finally dive in and give it a shot. What a time to be alive.
Glad to see Rocket Slime on there. It's amazing and maybe, just maybe my favorite DS game. I also hold Contact in very high regard, but it's most definitely not for everyone.
I have so many of them I never opened. Never bought a single key, but did get some from special events/leveling the free rocket pass tier, so I did open a couple. This seems like a good change at least on paper, but I'm interested in more details.
Yeah it has been available digitally for a while. I also bought it recently on sale and it's pretty swell for what it is. The motion controls work well. It's fun!

Incredibly lovely game, packed with a surprising amount of emotion, too. Loved this one to bits, man.

If this is/was real I'm buying a platinum developed shmup in a heartbeat. That's like...heaven, man.
Re: A New SteamWorld Game Is Now In Development From Image & Form
I'd love for them to make a Metroid game so much. I love these guys.
A new Steamworld game is just as awesome news, though!
Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl #36 - Streets Of Rage 3
Japan for sure. European one is quite hilarious, though. What a huge miss.
Re: Free-To-Play FPS Warface Reaches 1 Million Registered Switch Players In Just One Month

Re: Capcom’s Shinsekai: Into The Depths Launches On Nintendo Switch Today
I've never even heard of it but the trailer looked pretty fantastic. Is it good? guess I'll have to do some reading!
Re: In Other Waters "Is Like The ASMR Of Video Games", And It's Coming To Switch
@ThanosReXXX Not sure why people were mentioning Abzu either, looks nothing like that.
Still, the idea of a diving "management" thing is appealing. Just want to hear more.

Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl #33 - Castlevania (Nintendo 64)
Europe because all the rendered art for the game looks incredibly dated and goofy.
Re: Assault Android Cactus+ Physical Pre-Orders For Switch Open On 12th March
@Coach_A Seriously. Strange.
This game is absolutely SUBLIME. If you're looking for a twinstick arcade shooter you can't go wrong. It feels fantastic and frantic and plays wonderfully.
Re: Darius Cozmic Collection 2 Confirmed, Existing Collection Getting New Games Today
Still annoys me how split the collections are/how expensive they are if you want everything.
Was always hoping one "complete" collection would get released here. Alas, I guess the Strictly limited two versions is the only way.

Re: Katana Zero Free DLC Still In Development And It's Now "3x The Original Planned Size"

Re: Review: Thronebreaker: The Witcher Tales - A Superb Addition To The Witcher World
@Kai_ That's about how I feel, too.
The few times I've had to play gwent in the Witcher 3 so far were kind of miserable and it's not something I feel the need to explore deeper.
This game looks good and I'm sure if I spent some time with it I might like the combat, but, ehhhh. It's just hard for me to want to.
Re: Nintendo Download: 23rd January (North America)
Preloaded Kentucky Route Zero and the glorious logo has been taunting me on the home screen for like a week now.
I'm so hyped to start the adventure over and really take my time with it.
Re: Finally, Get Comfy With Kentucky Route Zero: TV Edition At The End Of January
Words can't really describe how excited I am. I played the PC version over all these years and each episode left me more in love with the game than the last. It has been so long now, that I plan on getting the Switch version and starting over just to soak in the amazing atmosphere all over again. It's just such a beautiful, mysterious experience.
Re: Nintendo Download: 2nd January (North America)
Nothing for me.
Instead, I'll probably just look at the sales (yet again) and decided if I want to part with even more of my money.

Re: The Outer Worlds Won't Be Released On Switch Until Next Year
Too much on my plate to play this at the moment, perhaps by then I'll be ready and perhaps even play it on the Switch (if it's a good port)

Re: My Friend Pedro Is The Latest Switch eShop Game To Snag A Physical Release
@JohnE I'm right there with you. I thought it was fantastic fun and didn't overstay its welcome.
I wasn't super great at doing any of the high level movement to get big scores, but I still had a complete blast with it.
