I've seen some graphics. Looks like a smoother Batman Arkham game.
I've seen some graphics. Looks like a smoother Batman Arkham game.
Since the Wii Store discontinued Wii points this past month, I bought 50 bucks worth before the points system shut down. Used it to buy:
Mario Kart 64 (N64)
Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask (N64)
Earthworm Jim (Genesis)
Super Street Fighter II (Genesis)
Super Mario Bros 2 (NES)
Super Mario Bros 3 (NES)
Star Tropics (NES)
Funnily, the one I've most been enjoying so far is Star Tropics. Cheap Zelda clone but has that same pleasure of adventure/exploration gotta-find-one-more-thing. Never played Majora before, but its low-poly low-res graphics look almost quaint and idiosyncratic now. It'd be interesting if that sort of blocky game design came back as a deliberate retro choice for games in the future.
Holy crap, not sure I ever realized you could buy Genesis games.
Crazy, right? Button scheme feels a touch weird on Nintendo controllers, but yeah, I have the original Sonic on my Wii.Quoting Dukefrukem (view post)
God of War is a masterpiece!

Still playing Monster Hunter World.
Had a conversation with D_Davis and we both agree the monster designs are lacking. Other than a few standouts (Paoluma, Barroth, a couple others), it’s pretty much Dinosaur Dragon Hunter World.
There’s the T Rex. The small dragon. The bigger dragon. The blue dragon. The blue small T Rex. The really big dragon. The dragon with horns. The tiny dragons. The tiny T Rexes.
I beat the game and yeah, a little disappointing in the design variety.

How long did it take you to complete?
Not a gamer by any stretch of the imagination, but I enjoyed Witcher 3, so looking for recommendations along those lines. The only other game I’ve played in the last ten years is GTA V which I also enjoyed.
EDIT: Available on Steam, if possible.

Are you just looking for sandboxy games? Because there's an excellent one that is free this weekend on steam. Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Wildlands - It has the biggest map area I've ever seen in a game.Quoting transmogrifier (view post)

Playstation Store is having a flash sale!
I'm looking to buy Resident Evil 2 for >$3 when I get home.
Didnt see it. Is it available for the PS3 and not the PS4?Quoting Dead & Messed Up (view post)
Part of me wants to get Alien Isolation.

Picked up Deadly Premonition for $3.99. Thanks for the heads up!

I would recommend Bloodborne over Dark Souls. It's a bit more combat friendly, but still punishing.
Sure why not?
STAR WARS: THE LAST JEDI (Rian Johnson) - 9
STRONGER (David Gordon Green) - 6
THE DISASTER ARTIST (James Franco) - 7
THE FLORIDA PROJECT (Sean Baker) - 9
LADY BIRD (Greta Gerwig) - 8

Bloodborne isn't on Steam though.

Just grabbed Fatal Frame and Castlevania: Symphony of the Night, excited for both!
Very Nice!Quoting Dead & Messed Up (view post)
There is something ridiculously satisfying about setting up Overwatch ambushes in XCOM 2 and taking out whole squads at once.

Trans - have you played any of the Witcher 3 expansions? Blood and Wine in particular is outstanding.
