Our Switch started doing this. I asked my Son what the last thing he'd managed to download was, he said Miitopia demo so I deleted that and it started working again.
Makes me want to yell like Edward Woodward at the end of the Wicker Man. Why would you license the Hitchcock classic and then make something that looks like snoozefest Inception?
@StuartGipp I'd also like to add that when Blue premiered in the UK it was simultaneously broadcast on both TV and radio. So I know we all see it presented as a film but like @nessisonett said you could just take it as an audio drama.
Presumably being Ubisoft they'll release a rough cut of the film to cinemas and not managing a final cut until four months later by which point it will be heavily discounted?
Well, totally get that if you were alone on an alien planet together you'd have to keep things interesting but how does that fit into game play? Could the sex scenes be old school stick wiggling mini games?
I wanted to give them the benefit of the doubt so I looked everything over and while there are some abusive messages sent to them, a lot of it is just screengrabs of people slagging off the game in public forums like this one. Someone saying your game is crap or that it looks the product of sexually immature freaks is not censorship, it's freedom of speech! I then checked out the game's trailer, I can't see why it would excite any strong feelings from anyone or why it would be on anyone's radar. The Switch and Steam have a veritable ocean of indie games, only the very best and very worst would create any awareness. Of course, there's horrible people out there on all sides of the political spectrum and I'd totally support legal action against the people sending them abusive, threatening messages. Complaining about people on forums saying the design looks trashy isn't really valid. If you're so against censorship, why are you against people expressing their personal opinions about games?
Hey, can I just say I really enjoyed the single player campaign on the Wii remake of Goldeneye? I never played the multi player so don't know how that fared but the one player campaign was fun.
1.video games based on licenses invariably suck (unless its Batman for some reason) 2.video games based on Doctor Who have an even worse history 3.the beauty of Doctor Who is the revolving door of talents but it's also ok if you dont like one particular team. Just dont be dramatic. 4.anyone who uses the term "woke" as a pejorative description needs to be composted for the Keynoids.
Great game but if you had it on Wii U then there is zero point getting this. That said, most Switch users never had a Wii U. On the other hand, it looks emulated not upgraded
It's a fantastic game but the "Includes all original DLC" thing is underwhelming as the original DLC was just a few little minor bits n Bob's you could buy for pocket change. They even gave some of it away with My Nintendo
Oh dear. I was looking forward to us having family gaming sessions with this one. I do hope they'll consider a patch for at least the Switch version. Of course, SE and the obvious course of action are seldom seen in each others company...
For goodness sake. He made an honest mistake, he's upset that he hurt people. He's gonna fix it with a little patch and wants people to know it wasn't intentional. Cue the usual culture war freaks blowing everything out of proportion.
@BabyYoshi12 Quick test for hot takea on internet forums. Would you take your opinion to your local bar and loudly share it with everyone? Now imagine it, go down there and say "I think if paedophiles haven't molested anyone for 20 years then they should face no consequences"
This is why, whenever I shop something to the UK from America and customs ask me the value I put what the item cost me to manufacture not the retail charge so it will be under the customs threshold.
My 10 year old: Dad, I missed the start of the Pokemon announcement, can you start it again for me please? All I saw was something about a phone app. Me: that's all there was. His bottom lip trembled
