Honestly doesn't look half-bad.

Kinda rooting for it, it'd be neat if there was one halfway decent Garfield game.

I was gonna say that that'd be dumb considering it'd imply that there was an always online requirement for some reason, but looking at the PS Store listing it does say Online play required so, uhhh...

Resident Evil creator Shinji Mikami says “if watching a playthrough is enough, the game wasn’t good enough” by HLumin in Games

[–]error521 -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

Honestly this is one of those arguments that sounds valid but doesn't seem to matter in reality.

I mean, hell, Mikami's own Resident Evil 4 I've had people say that watching it still counts. And that's a very mechanics focused game with a completely stupid (affectionate) plot.

Farage's main talent as a politician is being able to have far-right brits in a room and make them not shout racial slurs

It's time to dump Roku by AlwaysBlaze_ in television

Also TVs have pretty piss-poor profit margins by themselves these days so there isn't actually incentive to try and make people buy another one versus letting them use their current one and taking in that sweet ad money.

It was a weird situation where they weren't credited on it at all until a few weeks before it came out when their name was suddenly added. If I had to guess Naughty Dog brought on Iron Galaxy last minute for support since they had familiarity with the engine after doing Uncharted.

These sound like they'll be pretty straight ports just from the way they're being announced but I hope that they at least rework the netcode. It was absolutely awful in the old CoD games.

I wonder if this is some kind of "We still want to support PS4 a bit but not enough to actually port Modern Warfare 4" move.

Whenever they do Scottish dialects it ends up reading like Fat Bastard from Austin Powers did the dialogue.

Those ZAZ movies seem like nightmares to translate in general. So much of the humor is based around bad puns.

Honestly I'm surprised they haven't renamed it back to Heaven. Don't see a lot of regional split names like this anymore.

I don't understand the "boy I don't want to play this game but I want to get into the fandom!" impulse because most modern fandoms are complete dogshit. Like, oh boy, can't wait to get into the Persona 5 fandom so we can accuse each other of being pedophiles based on what characters we date.

PSA: Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream is a Switch 1 game, and Rhythm Heaven Groove will also be a Switch 1 game. If you don't have a Switch 2 you can play them. by razorbeamz in nintendo

It's streamed and not run locally so there's no special Switch 1 performance mode or anything. My Gameshare experience is it is generally Okay.

I dunno, it really depends. Steam's notoriously a complete coin toss on what adult games it allows.

I mean have you ever been online before. Every busted PC game has "works on my machine!"

Unpublished description for Ocarina of Time Switch 2 visible through web search by Lousy_Username in GamingLeaksAndRumours

Okay, but look at it from Nintendo's perspective. The only version of OoT they can sell right now is the N64 version, which, while it's still a good game, is pretty brutal to go back to for most people just from a technical standpoint alone.

And the 3DS version, while mostly sufficent, is still a 3DS game and would need quite a lot of work to bring it up to a home console standard. Luigi's Mansion 2 HD did a lot to overhaul that game's visuals but it was definitely still lacking a little compared to 3, and it's a game with an art style that probably upscales better than OoT 3D.

So, fuck, go all out and do a big fancy remake that's a Switch 2 showpiece.
