Re: Disney Dreamlight Valley's "Cozy" Physical Edition Is Just A Download Code

@Aiodensghost To play devil's advocate here as someone who always wanted to play OW1 but never wanted to plunk down $60 for an online game I may suck at (which would have then required me to give Nintendough $20 a year just to play it on their scam service), I absolutely love (for the most part) that Blizzard took it f2p. Not only does it expand the games lifespan GREATLY with the huge number of new players like me who are loving it. Sure the way they handled PvE blows and removing loot boxes and pushing 20 dollar skins is the epitome of scummy, but at the same time, they do not effect the game at all and you do not need them to play on the same level as the guy who spent a few hundred.

But this is the internet, which is one giant echo chamber of repeating things and it sure is popular and cool to hate on Blizzard (even though the devs are not making these decisions).

Re: Mini Review: Glyph - Takes Metroid Prime's Morph Ball Ability And Turns It Into An Entire Game

@rockodoodle It's not that it's difficult, its just that the tutorial kinda throws all of the mechanics at you in rapid succession while you're still coming to terms with the controls. Once it clicks though, it feels amazing.

Just picked it up for $2 and really glad I did. The last platformer that I enjoyed this much was Celeste. They patched the game and changed some things here and there like level order for better pacing.

Contrary to what the review says, I like the time trials. They make you feel like a little ninja warrior when you get gold on one. Definitely recommend it.

Re: Best Mech Games On Nintendo Switch

I'll always remember my friends brother getting the Steel Battalion game for Xbox. That controller was insane to use.

Not sure why this article though? It's like rubbing it in the faces of Switch owners what they don't get.

Re: Round Up: The Reviews Are In For Bomb Rush Cyberfunk

I keep mixing this games name up with something I'm interested in for some reason.

Good for people who liked JSR though. I tried playing that again recently on my phone and made it about 10 minutes before I realized how boring it is and how I never cared for fruit booting to begin with as an ex skateboarder.

Re: Review: Red Dead Redemption - A Fine But No-Frills Switch Port, For A Fistful Of Dollars

Got it launch day on the 360 with a couple friends. Remembering all the chaos that was the online lobbies.. good times. But after 100%ing it (one of a handful of games I've ever done that with) and the amazing Undead Nightmares (best DLC ever) I'm more than happy to be done and let the memories remain on that one.

Crossing into Mexico for the first time and hearing that Jose Gonzelez song play.. most memorable moment of my gaming life besides popping in that golden Ocarina of Time cart into my 64 for the first time on release day after the excruciating day at school waiting.

Re: Feature: The Rise Of 'Scam Games' And 'Keyword Bingo' Firms Flooding Switch eShop

I mean if you're not using DekuDeals you deserve any ill fated purchases you get from using Nintendoughs horrible eshop.

Silly that they will spend millions and millions failing in preventing people from legally playing their games on other devices via emulation, yet let their shop be utterly flooded with garbage, p0rn, and clear ripoffs. Priorities, and there's are ass backwards.

Re: Brand New 3D South Park Game Announced For Switch

theModestMouse

They perfected the art style to look identical to the show in Fractured But Whole, so they scrap that and make some weird looking 3d instead? Weird stuff Trey and Matt but by God if you two aren't the most magical humans on the planet.

@Expa0 Except it's sequel? Which was better in every way.

Re: Boom! Quake II Is Now Available To Download From The Switch eShop

theModestMouse

Jeez look at all that unnecessary cardboard and plastic.

Maybe one day I'll grab this when it's a couple bucks. Never finished the first one as there's a whole lot of Quake to be had there.

@WaveBoy yeah 120 fps is REALLY important in 20+ year old games, especially when your eyes can't even physically tell the difference from 60 and you're just tricking your brain into thinking it's "better".
