I honestly want one of these so bad. From the design aesthetics to the well reviewed game experiences, it’s a nice change of pace to the normal paradigm of console/pc/retro devices

Can’t wait to get it onsale on Steam! I already paid full price on Switch so they ain’t getting extra lol

Holy smokes that’s fucking wild. Reading that article sucked. I’m really happy for the indie passion projects that aren’t affected by this industry downturn as much.

AA games needs to come back, all these AAA and “AAAA” games are just ballooning costs and now the bubble has bursted.

The only one I’ve played is Metal Slug 4 , which is pretty fun. Any bangers y’all recommend?

I feel like it was best when it came out, but the single player was fun atleast. I get that it wasn’t your vibe tho, one of those “best at high level play” games

Considering Sega is most likely live servicing their Jet Set games, a sequel is a much better outcome. That said I’d like to check out anything they do seeing as it’s a good developer

Saved, thanks chief!

I’ve beaten it. It’s a really fun game!

I find it pretty awesome that instead of doing Remote Code Execution to fuck up someone’s life, they instead exploited it in live broadcast which shows the world how terrible these rootkits that go by the name of “anti cheat” are.

It’s surprisingly a fun part of the game. Very well thought out and the side quest is pretty high stakes which is weird all considering

Halo’s opening theme on the OG Xbox is so iconic I guarantee you if you did the chants in public several random dudes (and even a few women) will join you. Iconic

I liked the interview for one.

It was a fantastic game that was bogged down by some design choices ultimately. Story was excellent if bittersweet, and the characters were super cool.

The mmo aspects were very offputting however, and I feel like the combat needed some more depth. There isn’t much incentive to go fuckin wild with your move set like in Devil May Cry.

If you like old adventure games and real time strategy games you’ll be right at home. The artwork is pretty beautiful and the RTS segments look like a radar overview which really works well all considering.

The story is phenomenal. Literally on the edge of my seat the whole time, each chapter having some type of twist or subversion that really keeps you guessing. I bought it on ps4 and later bought it on switch for the gameplay upgrades. Worth every penny for my tastes

For such soulful games, I wonder why they aren’t as popular as other not soulful games. 13 Sentinels is upper echelon story telling

Oh man this game is dope. Becoming the “ghost” is so fucking awesome and you just feel extremely lethal.

And surprisingly it is more Assassins Creed than Assassin’s Creed

I disagree with this take.

I thought the world design was a decent balance of open and linear levels. Xenoblade is massive no doubt but often times I’ve found myself wishing it was more…dense I guess? Now I am not a fan of the obvious Ubisoft towers/icons in Rebirth but it is a very lively world where everything feels intentional.

Xenoblade combat is more akin to MMO combat compared to FF7 Rebirth. Rebirth’s combat is surprisingly deep with its ATB/real time combat. Having to juggle three characters simultaneously and set up your stagger/damage phases is really engaging. Xenoblade felt more like a rhythm game until the end stage bosses where positioning and execution suddenly became really important.

I say this as a Xenoblade fan, your comparison is apples to oranges.

I agree, it’s a really well made game with a lot of soul. And the card game is deceptively fantastic, a modern day triple triad

So these noname boxes are good for making a hardware firewall/network?

Sometimes a nice little experience is good times. Doesn’t always have to be an all out blockbuster or emotional rollercoaster.
