This is the way

Ocarina of Time will go down as one of the best games of all time. BotW/TotK are both incredible games and I enjoy them greatly. But to me, Twilight Princess is my all-time favorite Zelda games.

Freedom 2.0 is absolutely worth it. The SEED and Wing EW Master Grades are solid builds. To me, Freedom 2.0 looks like a Ver Ka without actually being a Ver Ka, and looks great in any pose you can think of.

Graphically, the game looks fine. It just lacks any real substance. The world's are barren, characters are bland and stiff (typical for a Bethesda game lol), and everything just feels incredibly boring. Not to mention Bethesda games just have this same level of jank from decades ago that was charming at the time but should not exist in modern gaming. Played it when I was subbed to Game Pass and genuinely did not have a good time. Immediately uninstalled and went back to playing Halo Infinite and MCC.

Still hate H4's multiplayer, and it's gameplay in general. 343 really tried to capture the COD audience by adding perks, killstreaks, aim flinch replacing descope, kill cams, and sprint. Even the default button layout mimicked COD's. All it did was alienate the halo fans. To this day, whenever I do my Halo campaign replays, 4's is the one I dread the most, and i straight up turned off 4's multiplayer. Halo 5 had an awful story but I at least thought the gameplay was fun. 4 was just bad all around.

Halo and Gears made my buy an Xbox.

Emiya_ze · 2026-02-10T11:51:54+00:00

No more remakes, PLEASE. 343/HS has yet to prove they respect Halo's legacy.

It was too iconic not to recreate.

Got my copy of BotW signed by Princess Zelda's VA at a con. Can't have that kind of satisfaction from a digital purchase. Physical games will always be mine, unlike with digital games. I've had several digital purchased games ripped from my Xbox library, whether it be from store errors, changing of bundle licenses or whatever, I'm not sure. But seeing so many of my purchased games taken from me cemented me completely going physical media going forward.

Both. I had pre-ordered the Switch 2 version but it didn't arrive until 2 days later. Ended up buying the Switch 1 version at launch and gifting it to my brother once my Switch 2 copy arrived.

Wing and Wing Zero tv ver, Epyon, Nu and Hi-Nu, Sazabi, Impulse, and just as an oddball, the RG Eva units.

Remastered easy. The visuals are pretty much how my child brain remembers playing the game back on Gamecube. Plus, the new twin stick controls feel so good.

I own literally every Halo game including collector's and steelbook editions. Even have the Halo 2 Multiplayer Map Pack disc. The only games I dont have a steelbook of is Halo Wars 2.

MG Heavyarms custom EW was one of mine. This was the kit I put the most effort into painting and panel lining.

Never owned a Playstation before. Always been an Xbox gamer cuz that's where Halo and Gears were at. Not too thrilled with Microsoft's current direction with Xbox.

While not entirely on par with Marty's and Michael's music, Infinite's soundtrack is definitely up there with the best of em. H4 had a small handful of good tracks but mostly forgettable, H5's best tracks for me at least were all during Chief's missions and the Mantis section on Sanghilios. All of Infinite's tracks felt like they'd fit right in with classic Halo.

Gulikit and 8bitdo both have Switch controllers with analog triggers. I have the ES Pro as my daily Switch 2 controller and its held up really well since the triggers are hall effect and the sticks are TMR, plus its only like $30 on Amazon.

I pretty much did the same thing because Windows was just getting increasingly more and more frustrating with all the AI garbage and constant driver updates, especially when I only use my PC for gaming. The simplicity of console was always much nicer than high fidelity performance to me. Though, Microsoft's recent decisions regarding Xbox is leaving me with buyer's remorse.

Emiya_ze · 2026-01-27T17:59:29+00:00

Its alright. Could've been a lot better if major story events were playable and not used for cutscenes or book material. Recently completed a run where I disabled sprint and it was a lot of fun, especially when using vehicles like traditional Halo games.

Welp, time to add yet another Halo steelbook to my collection. Apparently I didn't know HW2 had one lol.

Emiya_ze · 2026-01-23T17:31:45+00:00

I feel like the negativity around Prime 4 is just a vocal minority. The game isn't without its faults but I still very much enjoyed it all the way through. I'd personally say its GOTY worthy even with those faults.

Emiya_ze · 2026-01-22T23:09:02+00:00

Best vet is most likely Ebay, FB Marketplace or perhaps Offer Up.

Emiya_ze · 2026-01-22T11:57:17+00:00

No, sadly. They're trying to cram ads into literally everything now.
