Hm, paying 150$ to buy all three personas or spent a hundred more and get a Series S to play them for "free" (with subscription).. Ofc these games are better in portable mode, they are in a way like pokemon with much better story, social links and without multiplayer/trade aspect.
Mind that this is boxed only charts, not digital. Xbox and PC users tend to buy way more digital than Playstation/Nintendo users. Only hardcore Fifa fans (or new to the platform) would buy every disc version of the same game (with updated rosters) 5 times though,
I'm not sure how representative are boxed charts anymore
@rockodoodle True Madden on PS Vita was pretty decent (even though i still can't understand how this game is played exactly cause i'm not American)
Phantasmagoria II on PC, i mean was terrible but i renjoyed it. Also Codename Iceman that many consider the worst Sierra On Line game but my dad bought it for me.
These are the guys that really messed up KOTOR remake.... Sony fired them from the project after the terrible job they done. They should never hire them. Radio silence for month is not a way to treat loyal customers on 2022. Too bad cause Aspyr did half-decent job on the PC remaster many years ago.
Minimum optimization and high price. Just a money grab for the developers. Switch need more work than Playstation and Xbox cause the limitations of the hardware. Developers arent willing to put that extra effort
@Slowdive the upgrade is 20€ on PS/Xbox as well. Games get cheaper over time that's a fact. Just wait until its 15€ on discount. It won't go lower or don't buy the upgrade its optional content/premium mods anyway. Don't make huge difference
Microsoft should just hire a talented studio to remake Blue Dragon and Lost Odyssey. Its a company that is bleeding financially for over 20 years in Japan but still havent given up. Lol guess its kinda starting to pay off. Not that they will see profit anytime soon but they got a presence there now
Persona 5 Royal, was announced at a previous Super Live event. So have we reached the end of Persona announcement or we will have "one more thing" in Autumn? Hope Persona 6 is around the corner even if its just on Playstation for now
You must take in account that these are boxed only charts. They are becoming less and less relevant since more and more chose to buy digital. I havent bought a physical game on my PS5 disc edition.
Hope switch owners are in for a treat and not a trick! Also i expect this to be perfectly playable but i don't see how this can happen without major sacrifices
"It feels gross wasting that much energy playing video games just for better graphics". Yeah the best thing is to cling to that original unmodded gb with no backlit and use only recycling batteries. Also keep that first gen kindle with no backlit that could last a month without charging
@rockodoodle Next-gen Switch specs are aready set on stone. Hope its not as outdated as original Switch was. It will probably be close to Playstation 4. Steam Deck is 800p and i think it don't need higher resolution. in portable mode.
60 or 120fps make little difference in games like Persona 5R, or other turned based RPG's. On fighting games and FPS its huge. Hope 60 fps will the standard on Switch 2 but even Xbox Series S is 30 fps/1080p in many games and Switch 2 wont be as powerful
Thats sad cause Resident Evi could make a great tv show. Now we will not see another attempt for years. It took how many LOTR adaptations to make it right?
Fall guys proved that Mario Party would make a good F2P game. Also Pokémon on mobile would be great just have Pokémon centres and inns ask money to heal you and increase difficulty and cost of all items
I havent played any game from them, how are they so succesful? Even EA seems more credible from them to make a decent LOTR game. Prob they will outsource it to some chinese ocmpany, some of these got talent. See you in 10 years if we're all still alive and well till then
Man is one of a kind, but now that he's got loads of money he should hire some programmers to ease his workload. He can afford it. Stardew took like 10 years in the making, one man games take forever
"Many scenes that in the original were only subtitled are now dubbed". Honestly i could live without the cringy english dialogue....
"oh youre more important than the buster sword to me Zack...just a tiny bit"
Seriously now, dont bring politics into this. Tencent is as good as any western company. And i dont think Tik Tok is tracking us any different than Facebook.
And Ubisoft sucks now anyway Tencent may help them get out of irrelevance.
22.9% YoY is a big drop. I don't see it surpassing PS2 total sales but who knows. Anyway maybe its time to move on. Switch is great but its like 2 generations behind the competition already
Gale of windoria is indeed a wind waker-esque name, still Zelda isn't the first or the only top-down pixel art style game. I'll check this game on mobile
I like my games linear specially platform games. Sonic is trying to reinvent Sonic for a while now. This looks like a hit and miss but who knows, maybe it’s a surprise hit and not another flop
Thing is we got 3 Splatoon games over near a decade with minor differences and no graphical improvements. Its more excited when you have a generation jump like from 3ds to Switch. So it feels to many people a bit more like an expansion than a true sequel

Re: Review: FIFA 23 - The Final Whistle Blows On A Legacy Of Disappointment
A nice honest review in their face. If EA face enough backlash maybe they will realize its not right to treat their loyal customers like this.

Final Whistle is also a Kick Off 2 reference

Re: Persona 5 Royal Switch Special Edition Will Take Your Heart, Pre-Orders Open
Arcana Tarot Card Deck and Briefcase Bag alone worth the extra 60$ imo if you are a big fan of the game. Love it but i'm too old for this.
