Re: Beyond Good & Evil 2 Job Listing Shows There's Signs Of Life In The Old Hog Yet

siavm

This game came out when I was a teenager. They rereleased it twice but I don’t know the audience that loved it over 20 years ago will come back. I wanted a sequel that moved the story forward. But this game is a prequel that looks to make the original story weirder and seem smaller. I still don’t think this game is coming out. But if it does no matter how I feel I will get it day one on whatever system it is on. Hopefully not on the ps7 and switch 4.

Re: Best Zelda Games Of All Time

siavm

This is one of my favorite series to play. And I don’t really like to rank the games. Especially since they invoked different things in me when I played. Them. Being a preteen playing majoras mask was something. Playing ocarina at 10 and being completely wowed at what a video game could be. A 20 something grown man being brought back to the 90s again being wowed by a game in breath of the wild. And two years ago being wowed again with tears. No thank you with your ranks. The memories are what will stay with me.

Re: Resident Evil Requiem Pre-Orders Live, Switch 2 Pro Controller And Amiibo Confirmed

siavm

This is one of the few times I will pay the extra $10 dollars and get the deluxe edition. I want that lady d costume. And I will get this on the switch 2. Crazy a new RE is on a Nintendo system day and date with the other versions. And if it is as impressive as that demo they showed for the early stage I will be loving another RE game. The only scary series I can play and finish.

Re: Even Capcom Was Surprised At How Well Resident Evil Requiem Runs On Switch 2

siavm

Unreal engine 5 needs to be optimized for switch 2. Cause Capcom looks to set the standard now for what is possible from third party. Of course we still don’t know the resolution and frame rate this will have in handheld mode or docked. But the fact it is running like that with what looks like ray tracing on is crazy. The demo is probably from a build last month. So it probably will be better by February.

Re: Hands On: Resident Evil Requiem Switch 2 Footage - A Surprisingly Tense Port

siavm

I think I am convinced after Tokyo game show demos to get this game on switch 2. Was going to get it on ps5. But if it looks like this and runs like this I am here for this version. Now Capcom needs to bring over re4 remake. I have it but I want to play it on switch 2 again. They will not deny me a second or third run though of this game. Plus the many runs I did on Gamecube and Wii.

It was good on ps5 except for somehow getting controller drift and having to buy a new controller to finish playing it. But now it needs the switch 2 treatment. And if they do bring it I hope they add all the ways to play it. From gyro, to motion, to mouse, and even touch screen on top of standard controls.

Capcom and Ubisoft are showing the rest of the developers they need to step their game up on switch 2. And Epic needs to optimize the unreal engine 5 for all the developers using it.

Re: Tales Of Xillia Remastered Coming This October, Confirmed 30fps For Switch

siavm

I do not remember this one fully and but it looks like I bought both games on ps3. Tales of symphonia was my first in the series. The second game was a letdown. And those are the only two I fully played. I have got to beat the rest of the games I have including the most recent new game in the series I bought but forgot to go back to. I definitely don’t want to double dip until a price drop. And probably a switch 2 version.

Re: Ubisoft's Yves Guillemot Is Hopeful That Upcoming Switch 2 Port Can Revive Star Wars Outlaws

siavm

It doesn’t matter how Star Wars as a whole is doing. If you make an amazing game you help bring up the franchise. They did not do that. They made an ok Star Wars game in their open world format is what I hear. If they went farther it could have done better. But at this point assassin’s creed is the only thing they are good at. Sadly they are just not as good or creative as the Ubisoft I knew from my teen years that made beyond good and evil and the prince of Persia games 20 years ago.

They need a company that actually cares about the franchise to make a game like they did when bioware made knights of the old republic. Cause just cashing in on the name is not enough for anyone.

Re: Video: Switch 2 Vs. Steam Deck System Face-Off, Digital Foundry Investigates

siavm

I don’t care what they would out. I don’t really care for my steam deck like others. It plays a good chunk of my steam games but not all of them. And I really don’t like messing with options just to get certain games to play that have the green check. Switch 2 is just put it in and it works. It is still early but I am loving my switch 2. Steam deck will probably be my first and last pc handheld. Or at least for now. Who knows where tech will take us in the next few years. But for now I will play my switch 2 and not listen to some YouTubers or whatever they are that got famous for saying things that are technical. I rather hear from game developers about how they make what they do than from DF.

Re: NBA 2K26 Shoots Some Hoops On Switch 2 In September

siavm

They have my teams big player on it so I will get this one. But sadly it is only be for ps5. Wish the wnba edition was on the switch 2. But next year when this game is super cheap I might still get it. Not the biggest basketball fan at some times but the wnba has peaked my interest again. Last time I really followed Derrick rose was on the bulls team. But this will probably be the last on purpose basketball game I get this gen. Psn will probably give this game out next year though like they have the previous games but I want that cover to remember.

Re: Perfect Dark Voice Actor Calls On Fans To Help Series "Survive"

siavm

I accepted that the game series I loved as a preteen and teen is gone. The rare I knew is gone. And that Microsoft just makes windows pc’s. Cause my series s feels like junk now. The only game I am looking forward to from them is fable. But we saw less gameplay of that then perfect dark so I may have to make my peace with that too.

Re: Furukawa's Defence Of Game-Key Cards Ain't All That Convincing

siavm

I am still not seeing the problem with game key cards. I did not get any at launch. But that was cause I didn’t get that many games at launch. The ones I got were on sale on the eshop with an upgrade option. I did download street fighter 6 but I had the ps5 disc already. But if they release a certain third party game that feels like it is pretty much on par with the other console versions I will get a game key in the future. Game keys to me just seem like some games I bought on ps5 that were ps4 disc that had an upgrade. I downloaded the game but I still have to have the ps4 disc inserted to play the game. So I am in on certain ones in the future.

Re: Digital Foundry Is "Happy" With Switch 2 But Feels The Screen Is "Problematic"

siavm

The screen is good to me. Anyone complaining about oled you do know that a 1080p VRR 120 hz screen with oled would make the price of switch 2 now would be reasonable. That would add $100 to $200 to the price of this. And the price of this system is probably not going down. So if you want to pay $550 to $650 (or your currency equivalent) down the line for the oled with no game included that is you. I am happy with what I have now. I don’t think I will get an oled model like I did for switch if it is released. I will definitely get a bigger express card when they are cheaper.

Re: UK Charts: It's The Final Week Before The Switch 2 Floodgates Open

siavm

Even in the last week before switch 2 and a brand new Mario kart comes out Mario Kart 8 is still selling. Never thought almost exactly 11 years ago that this game would not only be a best seller on Wii U but on the follow up system too. Can’t wait to finally play the next game in the series whenever my target store decides the real date it will send it to me. Hopefully that is this week and not the 11th that it has as the estimate.

Re: Witcher 3 Celebrates 10 Years, Announces Mod Support For Consoles

siavm

This is still a weird series to me. I heard about the first one on pc but my pc has not strong enough to run games back then so I missed it. I was able to get the second game on 360 though. But the combat didn’t work for me. And I put it on hard mode. So I didn’t get far in that game. I debated even playing 3 but I did get it and finished it on ps4. Glad I did it was amazing. I still have not beat the second dlc expansion it got. If they did announce a switch 2 version and the price was low I might just finish that one switch 2. But whatever happens with that can’t wait to play the fourth game whenever that one comes out.

Re: "If You're A Real Fan, You'll Find A Way" - Borderlands 4 Dev Gives Tone Deaf Response To Price Concerns

siavm

Any game I want I get. Sometimes I wait years. Sometimes I just get it at launch. Didn’t think I would pay $69.99 for games but I got a lot of ps5 and a few Xbox series games for that price. And if Nintendo charges $79.99 for a game series I really like I will do it. It’s not there yet. My Mario kart is $50. And the switch 2 editions are not going to do it. Maybe Metroid 4 but I hope that is $59.99 on switch and just a $10 upgrade to switch 2 and not more. But I probably a launch would still get it at whatever price they charge.

So I will do it depending on the game. But most companies outside of Nintendo drop the price for their games a month or two after launch. So higher prices will only probably be a thing for a little bit. Nintendo though rarely likes its games on sale now. So the price they charge will probably be that price the whole generation. So if you really want it and have the money get it. If not just wait.

Re: Ubisoft's Prince Of Persia Remake Expected By 2026, But It's Delaying Other Major IP

siavm

They really did not know what they wanted from this game. It was probably going to be a simple remaster with some quality of life updates thrown in. But they wanted more and kept moving it between studios. Now it sounds like a big remake. Hopefully the 5 year delay is worth it.

I remember playing this series in high school. And thinking Ubisoft was ahead of its time back then. Now 20 years later and they are so behind the curve it is scary. Hopefully making a linear non open world game will help change at least one part of its business. Assassins creed is good and all but not every game they make has to be an open world with only the story and weapon differentiating the different types of games they make.

Re: Another Switch 2 "Code-In-Box" Physical Release Appears Online

siavm

Super unfavorable take but I would choose a game key over code in the box. And I am still not as down on game key cards as the rest of the internet. I will probably get a few third party games like this. Physical on the card is the best but I will take other third parties coming to the system. Support is support.

Re: PSA: Beware Of Fake Switch Joy-Con Charging Grips

siavm

I didn’t even know switch original had grip chargers until seeing the ones for the switch 2. I suppose after I got a pro controller I just didn’t follow other accessories except ring fit and labo. If the new joy cons feel good I may in the future get a charge grip for switch 2 in the future. Right now though I am getting a pro controller 2 cause people that went to the events Nintendo have sold me on getting it right out the gate. And the situation in the US with tariffs.
