Annother awesome game getting ported to the Nintendo Switch 2.

Cannot Recommend Kena: Bridge of Spirits enough with its tons of charm and engaging narrative.

I just... I have never really asked why do a port of a game before but City Hunter really feels unneeded at best and pointless at worst.

Cannot recommend the 2024 Film based on the manga enough. Its on Netflix. You will have more fun watching it.

Seems like my order has been delayed but cant wait.

Just as well, I have so much to get through, Pokopia can be a zen cap off when I am done.

Finally finished a review I have been working on. Hopefully will publish soon.

Here is a hint...

You live with it.

I had a lot of fun with it, but yeah, eventually I hard hit a point where It took way too much energy. Interested to how the Offline Edition might change things.

The worst part about this is that half the people with their fingers near the button have investments in this shit.

LET IT DIE had 10 years, which is massive in Live-Service years. Also pretty happy that this is another studio not killing their game when the service dies, instead bringing it offline.

A game called LET IT DIE refuses to die, go figure.

Yeah, doesn't seem super smart.

You know, part of the problem here is you wait two years to port to PC then are shocked players on PC have already moved on...

Just Saying...

Definitely, especially if you have the friends to rock it with, you will be in for a very good time.

I can see this for sure.

03.03.2026 21:19 πŸ‘ 1 πŸ” 0 πŸ’¬ 0 πŸ“Œ 0

Yeah. The big issue was always going to be just how it was introduced.

03.03.2026 20:55 πŸ‘ 0 πŸ” 0 πŸ’¬ 2 πŸ“Œ 0

I agree with this. I just really need to know HOW involved Tencent was and it feels very shady to hide that connection.

I feel bad but I feel like there are a lot of mysteries here I want to see if we get answers too.

Cant say im surprised but... Given the way it went down...

Im not sure how to feel about this...

Loved Blue Prince, definitely recommend if you haven't played it yet. Or even if you have, I might buy it again.

Here it is, my Scott Pilgrim EX review. The thing here is I LOVE, absolutely love, River City Girls, so there was kinda a bias this game was always going to be graded against.

If you are a Scott Pilgrim fan or looking to go on a Retro Rampage, there is a lot of enjoyable elements at play.

Reminder: Omega Force was also involved in Dragon Quest Builders 2, one of the best cozy crafting games of all time.

This is to say, if you are blindsided by Pokemon Pokopia being great, thats a you problem.

Debating if I want to get the Fear Effect 2: Retro Helix remaster and remember what the 2000s thought a lesbian was.

Love a good Indie World event. Wake up, not thinking I need to buy stuff, only to end up buying like 5 games.

Well, took me what feels like an eternity but I have gotten the platinum trophy for Resident Evil Requiem.

I dont particularly like horror, or at least its not my main genre, so why its the only genre I ever seem to have the energy to platinum anymore is beyond me.

So fucking excited for Beast!

I'm going with Waves cause I Waves at people all the time, it was clearly made for me.

I think I passed out right after but, beat Resident Evil Requiem this morning around 6:30.

Was pretty fun but I had so issues with it. Hope everybody enjoys Resident Evil Requiem day though!

I guess I want that fire dog thing, or maybe that grass bird thing. I could be convinced on that water lizard thing.

The whole thing looks pretty cool, so I'll just sit here patiently waiting for PokΓ©mon Winds, or maybe PokΓ©mon Waves.

Or, you know, Beast of Reincarnation.

Hooray! My copy of Resident Evil Requiem has arrived!

This throws a wrench into my gaming schedule.

This is so anti climactic it feels like the perfect way to announce the release date for one of Playstation's biggest releases.

Definitely feels in line with everything else we learned about Wolverine.

Evolution and its sequel are my usual recommendation,I love those RPGs. Blue Stinger would be my other, best shopping center music.

Have I mentioned lately how much I loved Lushfoil Photography Sim?

I finally finished compiling my thoughts on Dragon Quest VII Reimagined and, while I like pretty much everything they did, real talk, I never liked VII much as a game.

If this was VIII I would probably be calling this a masterpiece but VII gets too draining by the midpoint.
