Never played these Mana games...what are they? Are they good? Are the remakes good? WHAT IS THIS?

Also coming to PC (Steam) and PS4

Mario Golf and maybe Project Triangle Strategy. The rest: Boring (aside from the games I've already played). Shame, but given my low expectations I'm not disappointed

Yup, that leak was spot on. Unless there's a banger coming at the end, it was a pretty bad presentation for me

Still have to give Octopath Traveler a try. Project Triangle Strategy looks like something I'd enjoy.

Looks like that leak mentioned earlier here was spot on.

Always up for a relaxing round of video game golf. And some crazy multiplayer action Need to see more information on story mode. Definitely interested in this one

Mario Golf is the only thing shown so far that has me slightly interested. It does look like fun.

March 20th on AdultSwim

That reminds me...always wanted to give the first one another chance. Time to put my trusty ol' PSVita to good use again

Dragon Quest XI isn't that ol...IT'S FROM 2017? So...the last 4 years...where have they gone?

37 minutes Smash Bros. segment incoming

Fair enough. I do think that it was partially (probably mainly) a problem with the Konami-fallout and in turn budget issues, though. But then again, I don't know half of what happened there I've spent a lot of time with MGSV and listened to all casette tapes, read a lot of internet theories/summaries and the ideas present in the plot are brilliant. But I agree, the way it was presented was severely lacking.

Very well put. No matter what some people might say, Kojima is a master of his craft and he knows how to tell a story.

Can I throw in a Dragon Quest IV - VI Collection?

Anybody seen Ted Lasso? It's soooo good So happy to see that two more season are planned

I'm cautiously optimistic. Haven't used my Switch in quite a while so I hope we'll get some information on upcoming titles that make me want to hold on to the device. I pretty much only need a Metroid Prime collection. And a Monster Train Switch port (in conjunction with a PS5 port). And Slay the Spire 2. Nintendo 64 games for the online service, too. Throw in some GBA games, as well. So, yeah. I don't need much

Time to raise this thread from the dead Started it just now, played the first 30 minutes It's gorgeous Other than that: Seems fairly simple. Haven't done much aside from learning how to create paintings/genies. Had a smile on my face all the time. The characters are lovely (not the bullies, of course) and it's just a joy to see them interact with everything and each other.

I would love to post a video of one of the final battles, but...it's best you experience that for yourself Metal Gear Rising: Revenenenengeance is...something. I remember loving the gameplay but I don't really remember anything about the story. Pretty sure it's ridiculous If you like action games, you can't go wrong. It's from that time when PlatinumGames used to make games that are actually good.

With Control done it's time for me to start a new game and I think I'll go with the PS4 game we got on PS+ this month: Concrete Genie In other news: Finished one more DLC of Borderlands 3: Psycho Krieg and the Fantastic Fustercluck. It was surprisingly emotional given Borderlands' humour and...well...Psycho Krieg Lots of fun playing through this with two mates, as it has always been with Borderlands 3. Two more DLCs left. After that I think I'll move away from the game. Not going to bother with the Platinum, either, as you need to complete a shit ton of side quests.

There it is Had to acquire a few more ability points so I decided to give the DLC I haven't played, yet, a go: The Foundation. Atmosphere and mystery were top-notch with this one, too. No surprises there. It also had some new powers for me to use. They were pretty neat. Made going through the DLC a little less repetitive. Some areas, however, did overstay their welcome. There was one side mission which was really cool (if a little long): I'll leave a video of that mission in a spoiler tag: This is what I wanted more of. Action sequences that utilize your powers. Anyways, gotta say that The Foundation actually improved my impressions of Control as a whole. It was a little more varied than the base game.

YES! Shame you had it spoiled, though

Finished the story just now. Gameplay: Mentioned it before, but I found it to be quite repetitive. After the first few fights, you've pretty much seen it all. However, the abilities you acquire are really cool. Lot of potential marred by weak battle/enemy design. The occasional bosses that I've fought against spiced things up a bit, but it didn't help in the grand scheme of things. DualSense features are awesome. It just feels so natural having a bit of haptic feedback for every step Jesse takes. And the adaptive triggers add a lot to the Service Weapon. Graphics/Performance: played the PS5 version in performance mode and it ran like a charm. Looked very pretty, too. Graphics mode was even more gorgeous but it ran at 30fps which I can't deal with any more Audio: Great use of sound effects, music (which cut out occasionally during the first 2-3 hours) and dialogue which helped with the creepy atmosphere. Setting/atmosphere/story/lore: Loved it all. Thankfully no jumpscares The ending was a bit anticlimactic. Not the ending of the plot but rather how it was handled gameplay-wise. It's an interesting game. Control had me hooked right from the start with its creepy tone and mystery but almost lost me a few times due to the gameplay's repetitiveness. The narrative always pulled me back in, though. Not bad, not great. A solid experience Will go for the Platinum as I feel like some sidequests and whatever is left to do (acquiring ability points, doing some alerts) will push me further into the game's lore. Pretty sure there are lots more of case files, audio logs and videos to find

Yes, thank you. Hm, that's a shame. Guess I'm not missing out then.

Nah, he'd just get intimidated by my... ... ...superior video gaming skillz
