Re: Capcom Announces Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak Demo, Now Available

@citizenerased fully agree, the demos don't make a good first impression.
I've been trying to get into MH since Tri on the Wii.
Rise is where it finally "clicked".
I bought it on a whim due to the amazing reviews and I'm so glad I did.
150 hours on Rise and 200 on World/Iceborne.
I cant recommend it enough!

Re: Hands On: Kirby And The Forgotten Land: More 'Super Mario 3D World' Than 'Mario Odyssey'

@Fizza I loved 3D World to bits when it released and I'm very smug about it.
I felt a real disconnect with the true 3D Mario games. After growing up with the 2D games I felt the move to 3D changed it so much that they weren't Mario games to me anymore.
This was the perfect blend of both styles and an amazing game as well.
I still remember the salt when Eurogamer gave it game of the year over the Last of Us.
Good Times

Re: Capcom Is Already Preparing For Monster Hunter's 20th Anniversary

@Gwynbleidd I've tried twice before to get into the series. I got MH Tri for the Wii and hated it. I tried again with 4 Ultimate on 3DS and got a bit further into it but it didn't stick.
I saw the glowing reviews for Rise and decided to give it one last shot and it finally clicked.
I've played Rise to death and I'm currently polishing off Word/Iceborne.
Stick with it, it's become my favourite game series ever, hopefully Rise will click with you too!

To me Sonic 3 and Knuckles is an absolute masterpiece and one of the most beloved parts of my childhood, right up there with Mario.
I used to draw Sonic and his friends/enemies obsessively and I had so many issues of Sonic the Comic. To see his fall from grace has been heartbreaking but Sonic Mania was such a glorious return to form and hit me right in the nostalgia.
Such a shame Christian Whitehead and the team aren't working on a sequel.
