Re: Nintendo Confirms Free-To-Play Games Can Be Played Without Switch Online Membership

the maths has spoken. 30 nes games at launch plus 3 a month going forward. thats 60 retro games in the first year alone. were in the less than 40 pence a game zone here. I am going to go live on a boat in a couple weeks with internet once a week (perfect for keeping the games active) and I will happily pay 20 pound for a years sub and not even go online. sorry rocket league, love ya but the skills is gonna drop off....

anyway, if you cannot afford 20 quid a year you should prob think about a cheaper hobby, and changing your name to Kenny...

Re: Shmup Twin Pack R-Type Dimensions Coming To Switch This Winter

Ubik

R-Type is one of those franchises that defined a genre for me as a kid. Have loved shmups my whole life and this is the one that started it all on my trusty Master System. Slap FIght on C64 was an eye opener but RT just went and blew my little mind.
Oh my nostalgia bone is tingling!!

Re: Repentance Will Be Final DLC For The Binding Of Isaac, According To Creator

Ubik

have just started to fall for Isaac, this game gives you nothing and trying to figure out how the game works by myself was brutal. like life, this game needs help and support to get grips with and soon enough you can make it to bed on a regular basis without too much trouble.
Birth, life, pain, religion, death, superstition... never played any game that deals with such themes in such a heavy way..
Amazing game.

Re: Owlboy

I wish the 'story driven' part of the review and press stuff was a little more emphasized.

Not impressed so far, lots of not very fun dialogue between random mini bosses and escape levels where you will die loads not because it is hard but because you have very little time to react and even figure out what to do.

A real shame as some artwork, cut scenes and design are really cool.

Also, enemies should blow up when they are dead not after a short animation, it kills any satisfaction in battle.

Also also, the way the camera moves between screens is janky, [removed] needs smoothed out yo.

A simple patch could make this a great game.

And to those who told me this was a metroidvania, you are arsebends who made me expect a different game and thus not enjoy the first few hours of this.
