The first time I played Doom(2016) was on PS4. I finished it but I didn't really like it and thought it lost all the charm of classic Doom. Then I bought all the Doom games on Switch and tried it again with gyro controls. It was so much fun and nowadays I don't even want to play fps games unless they have gyro controls. Gyro is way more fun than mouse + keyboard, let alone analog sticks.
Didn't expect a demo honestly. I decided to pre-order Crimson Butterfly a while back because I've liked all the Fatal Frame/Project Zero games. Nice price too. That collab I didn't see coming at all, very intriguing.
I remember this one quite well. Apart from Fallout 1&2 I had absolutely zero RPG experience back then. I've played plenty of RPGs since so I could even say this game started it all for me.
That box has some weird things going on. Looks amateurish. If this ends up being real it's not going to be the most beautiful set. I want some Zelda Legos that I actually want. The Game Boy from last year was amazing and the new Speed Champions DeLorean is great, especially considering the price.
A store nearby was getting rid of the last copies of Brothership so I bought it just two days ago. It was really cheap so didn't lose a lot of money if I end up disliking it. Surprisingly lengthy and I still have probably 10 hours of Silksong to go. Not sure if I can play two massive games back to back.
I wanted Fallout 3 on Switch years ago and thought it would be a perfect fit and even better on Switch 2. Just make it run steady 60 fps this time. Leave some bells and whistles out if you must. F3 is still my favorite with the depressing tone and almost monochrome visuals.
After I completed Metroid Prime 4 (loved it, solid 9/10) I started Silksong just to see if I got what it takes to beat the game. Fortunately it's pretty amazing. Beat The Last Judge on new year's eve so I guess I'm doing okay.
I love the mystery! Bloober Team has slowly become one of the most promising devs and one of my favorites as well. And I haven't even played the SH2 remake.
The games he mentioned makes me think it's not going to be first-person or over the shoulder third person. Maybe something like Little Nightmares. Then again, he would probably mention that.
But you know what would be cool while we wait for more info? Silent Hill 2 Remake on Switch 2.
There are probably like 3 people that have not played Skyrim and I'm one of them. I've played the intro two times but that's it. By the time the dragon appears I'm like "yeah not for me" 😂
Being a huge sci-fi and Fallout fan I thought this game would be amazing, but after some hours on PC I just dropped it. My PC wasn't really powerful enough for it but it was also somewhat forced and underwhelming as a game. I might try it again on S2 if it happens but I have zero expectations after my first experience with the game.
Virtual Boy is honestly something I need to experience once but I'm not buying the massive thing. Maybe I'll purchase the cardboard one and accept the mere 2 hours of fun I'm getting out of it 😅
Now that I'm playing MP4 and being blown away by the graphics I know I have a powerful piece of hardware in my hands (not that Cyberpunk didn't prove that already).
I've been more than happy with my S2 itself but the first-party line-up has been solid but not amazing. DK Bananza was a bit 'meh' to me and MK World was just more MK. I'm very excited about future games and will check more third-party offerings after I'm done with Metroid Prime 4. And a new Mario will show up eventually. Good times!
I'm probably gonna love this game. The soundtrack seems awesome.
Hopefully I'll be able to pick up the game tomorrow. I got an email about my pre-order. They said there was a surprising surge of pre-orders lately and they will need a second patch to cover that. Didn't expect that at all here in Finland.
I really like Bloober Team but I've already experienced everything in this package. I think Layers of fear 2 is one of their weaker outputs but still ok. Probably well worth checking out if you haven't already.
I've actually been buying lots of physical games for the 3DS lately. I'm not much of a collector and usually end up selling my consoles and games but 3DS was a curious little thing with the 3D effect and all.
I got this from the library to try it out. It was ok but it really needed more save points. Also the world is pretty large which makes backtracking a pain. Maybe one day I will try it again.
God I hate escorting and babysitting in games (not great in real life either). I sincerely hope this kind of stuff is kept at minimum. Still very excited about the game and hopes up.
Only a month till Metroid Prime 4 is here and honestly we know next to nothing about the game. It's obviously intentional but for what reason. Worries me a bit.
The european store is really underwhelming. We don't even have stuff made out of metal there. Postcards and notebooks and the occasinal pin is all I get.
One of the first games I tried when I first got Switch. It was maybe 4 years ago and man did the game have a lot going on. It wasn't very beginner friendly but it did look cool.
I haven't finished it yet but I've been enjoying Cronos on Switch 2 immensely. I think it's more for the survival horror crowd than occasional horror enjoyer though. Cool game with interesting story.
Very much looking forward to Requiem. 7 & 8 I've already played on PS4 but will probably buy discounted in the future. RE4 remake I still have not played and I'd like to see it on S2, please.
While I'm enjoying Cronos, the framerate drops are pretty significant. I'm slightly worried about the performance of RE9. I know Switch 2 can be surprisingly powerful but devs need to do the porting right.
Enjoyed this a lot on Wii. Still, it's another old game released once again. I have never played 1 & 3 and would love to see them get a modern treatment but this is probably a niche series so I don't think it will happen.
Ubisoft have those deep sales so maybe I'll check it out down the line if there's a decent patch. Doesn't sound good though and I'm worried Indiana Jones will have a similar experience on Switch 2.
I love playing horror on Nintendo's platforms. I've also always liked Bloober Team and their visions. Definitely going to get Cronos, it looks really nice.
I played Heretic a lot. The fantasy setting wasn't really a thing I'd care for but first person shooter as a genre was still very young and I just loved it. So I played every fps shareware and demo I could get my hands on. Might get this somewhere down the line.
It's possible but Nintendo needs to lower the price eventually to achieve that. While the handheld market gets bigger now it also means more competition and there's already pretty powerful stuff out there.
Stealing from a library is such a douche move. The games are there so low-income families can borrow them and have some fun they couldn't otherwise have.
This was the only option in the store when I bought the console so I went with this. It's a quality product and the zipper is especially nice and smooth. I like things simple so I have no complaints.
edit. the screen protector is not the best and I will probably replace that in the future but for now it's doing its job
I'm in love with this game once again. My only gripe with the S1 version was the crude looks and now it's actually quite pretty on my S2. I haven't even tried all the new stuff like fishing. I just got into the new fossil system today. Couldn't be happier with the game! Well, they could actually do something about the on-foot combat...
Playing with the inverted camera was a chore. I did this and it's actually playable. Not sure I have the time to re-play this but it's nice to have that possibility!
I just wish they release this game once more on Switch 2 (or at least an upgraded version of it). They're probably moving on pretty soon but it's a great game that I've played on and off for years.
Looks great. Reminds me of many great games from the 90's.
And T2 of course is the best in the series. I could honestly live without all the rest. T1 is fine with its darker tone but T2 is where it's at. Very much like Alien/Aliens like @nocdaes already mentioned.
Make it 399€ and I will get it as soon as possible. Make it 449€ and I will still buy it but will feel bad about it. 499€ is too much and makes me look into buying a used PS5 and play through the backlog.

Re: Poll: Metroid Prime 4: Beyond Is Out On Switch 2 And Switch This Week, Will You Be Getting It?
