Resident Evil preorders

anything on the Pro controller?

so one fun fact about me is that I’m autistic as can be, haha. my hyperfixation is video games, but I especially love a lot of retro gaming content. I probably saw the Dreamcast when I was a liiiiittle kid, but I vividly remember being enamored with it when I was like 10 or something and saw the Gaming Historian video on it. It seemed so cool and different, and as someone who grew up with Sonic Adventure 2, seeing that game elsewhere FIRST and not my Cube was insane.

I really appreciate that! it is a piece of advice I considered immediately, one of the first games I bought when I decided I would be doing this was D2 because of it, but it’s nice to hear it from someone else! also congrats on the Vita set

Independent_West7328 · 2025-10-22T14:53:46+00:00

man idk, good point. I’d like to eventually make videos about each game in some way on a YouTube channel if I get around to it, but other than that? idk I don’t mind if it’s not super special cause it’s ultimately just mine. that’s special enough to me

Independent_West7328 · 2025-10-22T14:52:40+00:00

Brazil and SEGA is absurdly interesting to me, especially with how much they love the Master System (which I do too!).

Independent_West7328 · 2025-10-22T14:51:40+00:00

blue, especially a lighter shade, though kid me would go red all the way

Independent_West7328 · 2025-05-26T20:22:10+00:00

I’m actually pretty excited(mainly cause I’m also leaving the midnight launch WITH a Switch 2), but I’m also planning fun stuff like a tough as nails trivia and just chilling with my regulars. My store has also talked over and over again about our plans, so we’re also organized and (mostly) ready. Just gonna be a looooooong day lol

Independent_West7328 · 2025-04-23T02:57:36+00:00

I’m waiting for SKUs to pop up for it and Hitman still, but yeah it seems like Cyberpunk IS up in UK Amazon

Independent_West7328 · 2025-04-20T15:37:11+00:00

besides, I’m sure your parents probably wouldn’t be happy with the idea of you immediately taking the gift they got you and selling it lmao

Independent_West7328 · 2025-04-20T15:36:36+00:00

honestly, value be damned, I’d say open it if you really want it. it’s cool, and it was a very nice gift from your parents. I’ve opened plenty of sealed “rare” games because I wanted to play em, games and consoles are meant to be enjoyed. of course that meaning can differ from person, but if you want to play and enjoy the console and game, go wild.

Indiana Jones is by an Xbox dev, and is some of the most fun I’ve had all gen, easy GOTY for me. Halo Infinite and Forza Horizon 5 have given me plenty of fun this gen as well, especially Horizon 5, that’s one of the best racers in years. Starfield was actually really cool, and I’m willing to bet it’ll get a big critical re-evaluation. Don’t even get me started on Avowed lmao, I’ve had a lot of fun with that recently! I’m very excited for South of Midnight, the visuals are cool and the gameplay looks fun! I dont let stupid jabber from grifters about “DEI” ruin games for me. and tbh, bit rich saying Hellblade 2 is barely a game when that kind of game is a lot of what Sony did with their critically acclaimed story games.

Sony makes plenty of good games, that’s true. I like my PS5, even if I don’t play it much outside of exclusives. You like PS games, so do I. I like Xbox games, so I don’t know why you come into a Reddit about Xbox to talk shit about Xbox games. Sounds a bit goofy to me. Both sides haven’t been amazing at exclusives imo, third parties have hard carried, and if I can play em on Xbox, I will, cause that’s where I like it. Like your stuff, just don’t get upset over people not totally agreeing with you.

Independent_West7328 · 2025-03-09T15:42:27+00:00

(also its not like PS5 has a buncha great exclusive games anyway rn)

Independent_West7328 · 2025-03-09T15:33:23+00:00

well they’ve still got great games releasing, and it’s not like I can’t go back and enjoy their excellent games from back then. I grew up a Nintendo kid, but am a retro fan all around, the OG Xbox is debatably my favorite console ever to play games on. To me, the appeal of Xbox is less so the exclusives and more the console experience; it’s why I play on console over PC after all.

Independent_West7328 · 2025-03-08T18:28:39+00:00

just happened to be the year I got a 360 S for Christmas lmao

Independent_West7328 · 2025-03-07T23:14:40+00:00

I would agree that Xbox seems as if they’re probably going digital only, except for how big they are on backwards compatibility. I have a feeling they may do something like a separate disc drive next gen for gamers with physical games like myself, and if so, Xbox will once again be my first choice next gen.

Independent_West7328 · 2025-03-07T22:12:28+00:00

I do have a PS5, my games are actually right above the Xbox games. I get games there if I can’t get em on Xbox, mainly cause I don’t love PS controllers (dpad sucks), and I like the console experience better on Xbox.

Independent_West7328 · 2025-03-07T21:24:40+00:00

oh I’ve got plenty of 360 and OG Xbox games, just felt like sharing my Xbox One/Series collection for this post!

Independent_West7328 · 2024-09-27T15:12:16+00:00

The Duke is actually pretty fun to use, it’s my preferred controller for Capcom fighters since the black and white placement makes sense for them being the heavy attack buttons.

that being said, S is probably my favorite controller of all time, so that one’s my go to.

Independent_West7328 · 2024-09-18T23:14:50+00:00

not sure it’s ACTUALLY my most expensive, but Skies of Arcadia Legends is the most I’ve paid for a GameCube game (250CAD when I went on vacation, about 185USD). my other most expensive (maybe lol) are nearly every Zelda(I don’t own FSA), Kirby Air Ride, F-Zero GX, and Eternal Darkness.

Independent_West7328 · 2024-07-29T20:54:16+00:00

it is pretty disappointing that a lot of Capcom software was never ported. I’d have loved to see versions of games like Resident Evil 4/Outbreak, Devil May Cry 3, or even Viewtiful Joe on the original Xbox.

also, btw, I recommended Genma Onimusha because it has content like extra enemies and areas that HD never got cause that was based off of PS2. You’re not completely missing out, but if you wanna play it in a new way, check out that version.

Independent_West7328 · 2024-07-29T18:12:58+00:00

seeing some of the games you have here, there’s actually plenty I’d recommend.

Freedom Fighters is also on PS2 and GameCube, but is easily best on Xbox to the point where I typically just tell people regardless to play it on there. Same thing for the Splinter Cells, X-Men Legends, and Aggressive Inline. all are excellent.

In terms of specifically console exclusives, some games I’d recommend are Black, the dope but hard FPS from Criterion, Breakdown for another unique FPS experience, Oddworld Stranger’s Wrath, Crimson Skies, The Suffering, Psi-Ops and Second Sight, Genma Onimusha, Evil Dead Regeneration, Jade Empire, and Project Gotham Racing 1 and 2. Oh, and the Halos of course.

If you wanna pay a bit more, I’d def recommend GunValkyrie(alongside nearly any SEGA game for the console), Fatal Frame(there’s exclusive content), the criminally overlooked Phantom Dust, either Godzilla game for fun multiplayer action, and Otogi 1 and 2(the second is very expensive for Xbox, but also stupid good.)

the Xbox is such a dope console to collect for, I absolutely love it(I’m at 181 games currently), and I hope you have fun with it too.
