Cool! I knew it was in development hell for some time and I thought it was canceled.https://twitter.com/drdoak/status/1450453610840694799Timesplitters 4When was this announced? That would probably be the most exciting game release for me in years
It's been in the works for a good long while, but here's a tweet from Dr. Doak letting folks know they're hiring.
Timesplitters 4When was this announced? That would probably be the most exciting game release for me in years
With every Nintendo Direct I'm reminded more and more that I am no longer Nintendo's target audience.Yeah, I feel you. Aside from Pikmin 4 they have nothing coming out that I'm interested in. Even the new Zelda looks like an involved expansion of BotW which I wasn't the biggest fan of either. I've been pining for a more focused and down-to-earth Zelda adventure like Twilight Princess or Wind Waker. I'm not sure how something like F-Zero or Donkey Kong would do nowadays, but it's a shame that Nintendo just keeps relying on remastering it's backlog of older titles and making games that are turn-key like Fire Emblem and Zelda.
I'll tune in for the big games like the new Zelda and Mario titles, but it seems anime JRPG style games sell more than the games I like. Sign of the times I suppose
Yeah, prices were still somewhat outrageous in the late 2010s, but nowhere near the level they are now. I got 85% of what I have now pre-2019 I'd say. I bought my first home in 2020 and since then, the entertainment budget is much slimmer and I try to spend less than 150 dollars a month on games / movies (though I sometimes deviate). I have bought a ton of blu-rays though, dirt cheap at places like 2nd & Charles.Too many to count. I'm honestly extremely grateful that most of my collection was purchased pre-2020, some of the stuff I own would be impossible for me to purchase now.
I'm right there with you on being thankful I got into collecting when I did. I'd even go as far as to say I'm glad I had the bulk of what I wanted pre-2015 or so when this hobby exploded. Little did we know how bad it would really become in recent years, even back then. But I started out when few other people were collecting and those are the years I look back on most fondly and remember enjoying doing this the most. Outside a few instances here and there, collecting has been pretty shitty and unfun for the past 5 or 6 years, especially the last 2 or 3. That's why I've started to focus way more on playing games rather than buying them.
I personally really enjoyed playing Pikmin 3 with the GamePad for multitasking with sending units to different places on the map and for placing units down. Was one of the few games on the Wii U that I've felt used the GamePad in meaningful way.Huh, I never played Pikmin 3 this way. I played quite a bit with the GamePad only, but not in tandem with the TV. I'll probably at least replay Pikmin 3 before 4 comes out, so maybe this is how I'll do it.
Diddy Kong in Strikers but not MK8D.
Ubisoft tends to drop prices very quickly.Typically, Ubisoft offers not much more than vapid crap
Today I discovered that my Nintendo Switch's screen appears to be ruined. The coloration of each corner has darkened and become yellow. Kind of like screen burn-in, except it's not. I rarely ever remove the screen from the dock because I only play using docked mode. The only thing I can conclude is that leaving it in docked mode for too long will damage the screen. I would say that, except I've had a Switch for 4 years now, mostly docked, but I played it in portable mode like 6 months ago maybe? It was fine then.You got me worried as my Switch has been docked pretty much exclusively since launch day in 2017, having only put maybe 20 hours of handheld play into it in it's lifetime, but I pulled it out and the display still looks fine. I wonder if it has something to do with heat or if the screen panels they used simply were of poor quality. Sucks either way
Mine arrived. How about the rest of you vampire hunters?Mine showed up as well. I won't be opening it as I've had the digital version since launch but I love being able to own a physical English version of Rondo that's on a home system.
I was going through old emails and completely forgot that I ordered a few things from LRG back in January! I'm trying not to be a Karen but what is the hold up?I too ordered a game from them in January. It went from "In Hand" back to "In Production" mysteriously. I don't know that I'll be buying from them again
Still published by LRG. I've never ordered from LRG before, is it more expensive directly from them?It is slightly yes, because Best Buy's shipping is cheaper or you could pick it up in store for free. This is utter BS
