Really looking forward to this, love the 1982 movie and never had a chance to play this, the only other The Thing material I got to enjoy were the comics

I’m cautiously optimistic, but I’d love to see this come over to the Switch successor at some point in the near future

Looks like a free to play mobile game to me?

this is a reason i've not really started this game and will probably trade in, its too long and im not all that interested in it - from what i've heard online it sounds like it can be abit of a drag also after a while so i've moved on to other shorter games

@XiaoShao I finally did some reading online and it looks like it is in a pretty bad state from what others are saying - I did get the black box bug for an enemy once but no other issues. I'm going to stop playing this for now until its patched.
Thanks for the heads up on this by the way! Glad I didnt waste alot of time on it to get blocked at some point

@XiaoShao I played almost the entire intro chapter and havnt noticed any bugs so far, though it may just be down to luck

@XiaoShao Really surprised they didnt review Wildermyth (yet) - I bought digital and will have the physical in a few weeks, great game!

Such a shame, I played Rime recently and thoroughly enjoyed the gameplay and story - a game that will leave a mark on me for some time.
Hopefully the staff come out of this ok

Wow, Grove Street Games removed from credits - I'd guess Rockstar wont be using their services again

The inventory menu system in Fire Emblem Engage baffled me and was just a mess from what I recall - why these devs cant come up with intuitive menu systems is beyond me

@jco83 @awp69 from the little time I’ve had with it running the latest patch unfortunately not, SwitchUp confirmed this also in one of their all patched up videos from months ago. Maybe next Nintendo console could receive an update or just brute force it to work better with the more capable hardware

@tonyp1987 I found that too with Knight, it ran great on deck

@JohnnyMind I checked the same and looks like physical end of March next year so a wait for me too

Really enjoyed this back in the day, I remember it being buggy but superb at the time. Nice to see a solid Switch port

I think the Switch 2 reveal will just drop like the Xenoblade X trailer last week, when Nintendo are ready

Best guess easrly next year - if theyre on top of manufacturing the wait to have it in our hands from reveal might not actually be that long - you could be playing it in 3 months!

@Yosher they lost any respect i had for them a decade ago with their Alien Isolation review

That looks great from the trailer. I know next to nothing about it other than there are mechs and its the Xenoblade that most appealed to me from what i've seen. The trailer above is the most i've seen of the game, and now im really looking forward to it!

Its not just the fact it seems like a good game, they offered it at an amazing price, I think thats what did it - £40 and more people would have passed it over

Really looking forward to this, enjoyed it alot on Vita and happily surprised to see it make a return and will definately be picking it up for a trip down memory lane.
I hope the online components stay online for a fair while, I enjoyed that aspect

@gcunit I was thinking I bet he doesnt have kids then

I'm very curious about this, I completed Horizon Zero Dawn last year on my steam deck and really enjoyed it so I feel I need to give this a go either way though I think I would still prefer Zero Dawn (aesthetically)

@VHSGREMLIN my best guess would be for the next system, but whether or not what we're actually seeing is an early version of the game they're developing or not im unsure - they could have created this game simply to test their online instratructure to then be used for other unannounced title(s)

@AstroTheGamosian I've given up with the quick menu now and use the notebook to select echoes, a tad easier but still not great

I don’t have time to play Mario 3d world but I really do need to play Bowsers Fury

Stitch. is my favourite on the list, great game to chill out with

Looking good - I'll hold out for a physical for now as alot of other games to work through, Gris included

@axelhander just had a read, it does sound terrible!

Switch 2 is actually a cloud streaming service to your OG Switch Jokes aside, very curious what their test this month is and the apparent recommendation you should use TV mode and ethernet - guessing this test is related to 2025 features

@Bigmanfan likewise, I thought one of them was going to be Tomb Raider Anniversary

I'm not the biggest fan of Zelda games, but i must say Echoes of Wisdom i think is my favourite and am really enjoying it. Maybe the freedom to think like in BotW/TotK but smaller scope (I dont have that much time for games) so more managable

@TheBigK I get up easily with my alarm so I think that’s why it would irritate me, but good point for heavier sleepers it would do the job!

Personally i'd hate waking up to those sorts of noises, coins etc - i'd find it very annoying very quickly

@Toastmaster In that case, I'd love to see a redo of Lord of the Rings/The Hobbit, but doubt that will happen

@Toastmaster @Daimando I didnt realise it was Sony behind this, just checked and it Guerrilla which is Sony owned right? I assumed as with past games it was Travellers Tales - wonder if they lost/have to share lego rights now. More interested in this now to see how it turns out, new perspective (dev) and all

Great news, take your time, get a great script and concept together and release an amazing sequel - I'm willing to wait as long as is needed for a great follow up

With there being no direct for september im guessing the pipeline is sparse now and my money is on the next direct being the Switch successor reveal, but when that is who knows

I'm not a framerate hog i.e. i dont need 60 to enjoy games, im on the other spectrum where i prefer a stable framerate instead so I'd welcome a locked 30 here

Doesnt sound interesting to me, maybe as a feature to walk through as you're heading into the theme park maybe but not as a dedicated facility - i'd be surprised if it remained open for that long.

Its a goal I could never have in a game, it'll take me a month atleast to finish this - good targets to aim for the speed runners!

I want what look to be analogue triggers under the controller (concept from a week or 2 ago) to be the real deal, this i could live without

@Zuljaras Let me know how you get on with The Last Faith - I’ve been contemplating that but apparently there’s a game breaking bug at the moment limiting the number of health jars (not sure if that’s right name) that you can get to 7. I’m keen on this but holding back as I can’t find word on if a fix was released or not.
Hope you get Zelda ASAP! It’s worth the wait regardless so enjoy it when it comes

@anoyonmus ah right I see, thanks for the clarification! It seemed odd at first glance

I’m absolutely no law expert, but filing after its release - could that even be valid an argument in court as it’s done after the fact? Wouldn’t it be like Cities Skylines releasing then EA filing a patent on City Building game designs (as they own Sim City) after Cities Skylines release, then going after them in court? ( random example I know)

I'm looking forward to news on their Front Mission 3 release

@RupeeClock I'd be happy (and much prefer) a 30fps lock rather than variable. Only Nintendo knows why they didnt lock it, maybe they cant with the engine

I'd be happy if this was legit. Legit or no, the leaks have been quite convincing. I like the analogue triggers they added to the joycon - I pressume thats what they are, the larger screen is nice though the jury would be out on quality as the OLED is great. For now I think Nintendo are right in more of the same, as I cant see the next console doing as well as the Switch (though I'm definately not saying it'll do badly - just the fact that Switch sold like hotcakes)

@link3710 i'd love to see Astral Chain 2 on the next console and hope they didnt buy the IP to just do nothing with

@Alpha008 maybe something odd like Nintendos submission process. Like you say it’s be surprising if it was technical related

I think the C shape on the square button is supposed to be a moon icon for sleep mode - put the console to sleep
