So glad to be an early adopter. I bought some a 2tb SSD stick to upgrade my D drive, mid last year. Haven't even got around to imaging the old one and swapping it out. That thing is sitting on my shelf in the den just growing in value.
Seemingly to completely blame Nintendo for this, is rich. Having said that, if you want to see an image of a dildo, they are pretty easy to find online.
Do I have to shove my face into the device with itsitting on a table? I remember eons ago a test unit at Ebgames, Babbages, or whatever they were before Gamestop came along. It was a cool experience but can't imagine long playing times in that mode.
I have fond memories of working 2nd shift in a healthcare industry and coming home and firing the original up on my Playstation. They never quiet captured that same magic again.
@Misima Complete and utter rubbish. People can do more than one thing. Encourage your children to explore a variety of pastimes. No reason to block one hobby because you weren't able to control yourself.
@CorvoRevo I thought that of Minecraft but apparently some people loved it. I can't bring myself to watch it. Jack Black was funny over a decade ago, now it just seems like listening to your dad tell jokes where he only remembers half of it.
It will "take over" the same way computers "took over". For reference, I took a typing class in high school. Nobody uses typewriters, but we all still type. Learn how to write successful prompts and even beyond that human art will still be valuable. The same way Pixar isn't as valuable as a Rembrandt, though both exist today.
Playing the updated Yakuza Kiwami 1 and 2 in preparation for Kiwami 3 remaster/remake in Feb. May play Yakuza 6, if I finish these in with time to spare.
@Spider-Kev You play that many games at once?? You can delete a game without deleting the saves. If you truly need that many games installed at once, hats off. I'm jealous, that's more spare time than I have for gaming.
It's a niche genre. I loved it. It's not COD49 or some other overused AAA genre, but that's why it won't be a GOTY. I get CO33 because it's one of the OG genres of gaming, and I loved it myself, but I think it will be a cold day in Hades before a VN ever wins GOTY. It's like a dark secret of gamers. A very, very fun dark secret.
@UpsideDownRowlet Much to the relief of everyone else making games and trying to find a good window to launch.
This February is going to be a huge month, I suggest anyone else look at any other month on the calendar.
It's a good game. Some aspects they seem to lean into slightly, then back away. You can tell it went in a hundred different directions, before picking a direction. Good game, but not memorable.
@YoshiFR2 I feel your passion but the very last thing Switch 2 needs, right now, is another racing game. Loved F Zero but it was very vanilla compared to racing games today. We have MK, Kirby, Sonic and Forza. Can't imagine how they'd make a F Zero to compete with them. Maybe it's possible, but I highly doubt it. That is probably mostly nostalgia speaking.
Not sure if this is a critique, or just an observation, but the characters look so large compared to the real estate of the screens. Are those images cropped or is that how it is in the game?
@PlatinumTour The fact people are still buying Xboxes, even in double digit numbers, is more amazing. That is definitely a sinking ship. Maybe they pull a comeback like Nintendo did with Switch after Wii U but their leadership in the gaming division needs a complete overhaul, first.
I couldn't really get into it, in single player mode. It came with my system but I barely played it. I'm sure it would be a hit at a gathering but I miss the days of Diddy Kong Racing and story adventure mode. The exploration mode in MKW is a miss to me and could have been much more. :/
FULL patch notes from Nintendo, that'll be the day. I knew this was just going to be some mumbo jumbo crap before I read the "article"
"General system stability improvements to enhance the user's experience"....indeed
Imagine taking your vehicle in for maintenance and asking them after what they did:
We made it more stable
