Yeah, all the publishers will just release Nintendo-style directs and realize E3 is obsolete in terms of delivering a message to their audiences. It’s time for the trade show to die, especially after the ESA doxed thousands of journalists last year. All we really need are some nicely edited trailer reels.

So either way you’re watching a “YouTube video.” Except now we won’t have to endure hours of boring marketing speak and just get to watch cool trailers.

Bilbo 3,709 Posted March 16, 2020 Share Posted March 16, 2020 Played The Last of Us over the last few days. I was a little apprehensive about it because of how underwhelming I found Uncharted but damn. This game lived up to every bit of hype over the last 7 years.

Jay 37,380 Posted March 27, 2020 Share Posted March 27, 2020 New trailer for Shantae 5, which drops May 28th, the day before The Last of Us II & Xenoblade Chronicles 1 Definitive Graphics look great, new powerups seem cool, sounds like they reused some voicework though Should I play Shantae 4 since so far I've only played 3?

The third one is definitely the best of the series. The fourth one is kinda fun, but it feels like they rebooted it to be able to hit a wider demographic...the cute risque of the older games is practically nonexistent, and the humor didn't really hit me at all. The game was funded through Kickstarter, and did not receive all the funding they asked for, and it shows. The game was designed in a "modular" way, so that way if they couldn't get certain levels etc. funded it wouldn't hurt some core plan. As such, things don't really feel like they progress...it's not a bad game, in the end, but I'm lukewarm about it...as I am the first two Shantae games, if we're being honest.

Jay 37,380 Posted March 27, 2020 Share Posted March 27, 2020 I bought it on Switch the same time I bought Shantae 3, so I'll probably check it out. I doubt I'll worry about beating it before playing 5, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edmilson 7,477 Posted March 29, 2020 Share Posted March 29, 2020 Anyone else using the quarantine to play lots and lots of videogame? I didn't had the time to game in the Pre-Coronavirus Era of the World, but since I do now, I'm playing a lot of stuff: Destiny I don't know why this game was so criticized, it's great! Lots of fun to shoot aliens when you're stressed. Sure, it's repetitive, all the missions are pretty much the same, but still fun. Star Wars: Battlefront Also a game that was better than I expected, although people are playing just the 12 player matches. I really wanted to try the 40 player matches, but 5 years since its release, there isn't that much people still playing it. Call of Duty: Warzone I had a prejudice against the Battle Royale genre much because it was associated with Fortnite and tweens, but this one is cool. I'm unfortunately terrible, but I hope to get better at this genre soon. Star Wars: Jedi - Fallen Order Started it today and played the first level. I really like it, it's like a mix between Uncharted and a Souls game for the combat, with a pretty cool atmosphere and wonderful graphics. I'm sure it will be a better Star Wars experience than that abomination released on theaters last December. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has a lot of potential but I think it’s pretty terrible in its current state. Blackout from a couple years ago is infinitely better, although unfortunately not free-to-play. That being said I still play a ton of regular multiplayer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are also only able to be activated on a replay of a mission. The chainsaw has enough fuel for about two hits. Should be enough to get you around the arena you’re in. There’s always health and ammo scattered about. You really always have to be running around. I’ve died here and there but am managing fine on normal difficulty. I primarily use the shotgun and its sticky bomb secondary fire. What mission are you on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't get past this asshole: I get to the point where he starts glowing so I can extreme kill him but he restores before I kill him and I'm out of ammo.

Holko 9,535 Posted March 30, 2020 Share Posted March 30, 2020 It's Shark. Guess. But to not be just as unhelpful: I remember I once found a video of it and found it really interesting, I have it on Steam, but didn't play much of it because I found the controls and UI a bit dated and clunky, or just weirdly ported at the time or just wasn't in the mood.

I took the remote, paired it with my phone and downloaded emulators and Crazy Taxi instead. Much better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
