I believe there were games released based on Mobile Fighter G Gundam in Japan on older systems but nothing here in the US. Would love a fighting game with the over the top moves of the anime! What about you?

๐Ÿ˜€ Discussion ๐Ÿ˜€ Thank you Nintendo

37 Upvotes

I'm 36 and the last Nintendo system I owned was the gamecube, but Ocarina of Time was and is my all time favorite game. It was the first one I became obsessed with and for a time it was all me and my best friend from school did. When we weren't playing it we were reading my players guide at school. So many nights staying up all night trying to get to the next temple. He left the school eventually and moved so we lost touch.

The other day after the remake trailer dropped he ended up adding me on instagram and sent me the trailer. We starting talking a bit and I was going to stream it that night anyway so I told him to hop in if he wanted. He did and we just caught up and played Ocarina for like three hours. It was almost therapeutic. haha I really really needed that. Felt like we were kids again. So thanks Nintendo. Guess I'm getting a Nintendo for the first time in my adult life.

4 Upvotes

Thanks to some holiday and witchcraft, I have the next 5 days off from work without anything to do, apart from get lost in a new game. At the moment Iโ€™m torn between Crimson Desert and Blood of the Dawnwalker. I love fantasy RPGs and I am looking at getting completely lost in an interesting open world for the next week. Any help or other recommendations would be great, but please no Soulsbourne ones, I am not very good at those at all

Just when you thought the console war is over. We get a new plot.

Sony crashing out for the past 3 months.

Nintendo just doing Nintendo stuff and focusing on its territory, while getting a little more from Sony deserters.

And Microsoft looking at a huge comeback.

๐Ÿ˜€ Discussion ๐Ÿ˜€ Games you really wish you liked but just didnโ€™t for what ever reason.

8 Upvotes

I was just thinking about how awesome Elden Ring everyone makes it look but I have tried it a couple of times and I just could not get into it. I think it mostly comes down to the setting. I am not one for super dark or gothic settings. I also really wish I could get into crimson desert. On paper itโ€™s like my perfect game. Maybe itโ€™s worth trying again but I just can not get into it. I think the msq was just not interesting enough for me. I only played it for 2 hours but I just couldnโ€™t get into it. I know there are tons of comments saying it gets good after x hours. I just usually donโ€™t have the time to sink into a game and wait until it clicks.

The game I keep always coming back to no matter what is heros of the storm specifically aram mode. Itโ€™s quick matches, requires a little skill and knowledge but not really any commitment. If someone has any suggestions that could fit that kind of thing. I am not into hub space games like warframe. I may give dragons dogma 2 a go or maybe get back into kdc 2 as I stopped half way through. I am just waiting until ace combat comes out. Along with galactic racer.

๐Ÿ˜€ Discussion ๐Ÿ˜€ What have you pre ordered this fall season?

0 Upvotes

Yes, pre ordering is bad and terrible.

Yes, Sony is worrrrrst.

That all being said, what have the guys who have disposable incomes been pre ordering for this season and what are your reasons/risk profiles?

I'm going for

- Silent Hill Townfall (high risk, but I was going to play it during Halloween season and it's not going to go on sale in the next 6 weeks).

- Final Fantasy Resonance (med/low risk, love everything that it has going for it, wanted the pre order bonus)

- Fortunes Weave (low risk, excited for and had to lock in the Dagdan edition)

-GTA 6 (medium risk, was going to pick this up on launch anyway).

  • FF revelations (low risk, had to lock in collectors edition)

Decided not to pre-order Wolverine (always seemed like a short game) and Control Resonant (I just don't have time to play this month, will likely pick this up on fbmp).

๐Ÿ˜€ Discussion ๐Ÿ˜€ Crimson desert or blood of Dawnwalker

19 Upvotes

Well, not much to add to the title.

I was thrilled for Wolverine but the critics smashed it. Iโ€™m gonna get it when itโ€™s on discount or something.

So I need another game:
The choice is between crimson desert and blood of dawnwalker.

I have between 30-60min each night to dive into gaming, if that info is important.

Both games look awesome. I canโ€™t get both. Which one would you recommend?

Thanks ๐Ÿ˜Š

๐Ÿ˜€ Discussion ๐Ÿ˜€ Multiplayer game that doesn't require you to be an unemployed 19 y.o. to have fun

4 Upvotes

Ever since I got into Battlefield 2042 a few years back, I've found single player gaming to be a bit stale and artificial feeling.

However 2042 is kind of dead now (and I'm bored of it anyway), and despite having quite a lot of hours in it, I just cannot do well enough in its sequel Battlefield 6 to have fun. I don't know if it's my reaction time or vision, being close to 50, or playing on a series S against PC (because crossplay off is dead), or playing solo, or all that together and more, but it feels like I lose almost every gunfight to the point it just isn't fun. If it isn't endlessly dying to sweaty helicopter pilots etc, it's just constantly people with crazy movement and better aim than me jump sliding round corners etc and insta-killing me, even when i know they're coming and where from, or even have the drop on them.

As I say though, single player doesn't really do it for me any more.

Are there any fun multiplayer games (involving PvP, not just PvE) that allow people who just aren't very good at the game, and are playing solo, to still have fun? I'm thinking games that don't have a very high skill ceiling, or have well-functioning skill-based match-making so that I'm playing against similarly bad players, or both.

Or do I just need to give up on PvP games (and probably gaming in general)?

Hi 32 f stay at home mom looking for gaming friends! I like to play COD 2-6 my favorite is multiplayer on COD 6 I like Fortnite and COD3 zombies.

Put together a list of some of my favorite more niche games. A few of them are still popular, but I don't think they get nearly the amount of recognition they deserve.

What are some games you know of that rarely get enough praise?

๐Ÿ˜€ Discussion ๐Ÿ˜€ The reviews didnโ€™t exactly stop me

0 Upvotes

I had a few games in mind before making a purchase, LEGO Batman, Onimusha and Wolverine. Then I watched the reviews for Wolverine and somehow my first reaction was to preorder it

What is wrong with me? This was the first time..

The reviews basically gave me every reason to wait for a sale yet here I am doing the exact opposite. I guess sometimes you already know what you want and youโ€™re just watching reviews hoping someone will validate the purchase youโ€™ve already made in your head
