The quality bar is really high these days too.Īll three console makers have embraced indie games with fervour at some stage. The shorter run times and more experimental and creative directions are big factors. Indie gaming makes up the bulk of my gaming diet these days.

The future of Nintendo must be on PC - Reader’s Feature I can play my Switch on a boat, at the top of a mountain, or on the beach (and I have!) but I’m pretty sure I’m not going to get good enough Wi-Fi to do that with this Logitech/Tencent device. At home, sure my broadband is pretty stable, but out and about? Not a chance.

Maybe it’s different in China but I really don’t think we’re in a position where portable cloud streaming consoles make much sense yet. I’ll wait to see what the DLC is like but this feels like a rough sketch game and someone keeps forgetting to colour it in. There’s not much variation and even though there are different maps they still look the same.

Salmon Run is really good, but again it’s really limited. The fact that you have to play for so long to unlock anything other than one mode is crazy to me, especially as by the time you get to the others everyone is really good and I at least suddenly start struggling. Why Japan likes it so much I don’t know, but maybe they just don’t like serious/violent shooters, which is fair enough? Although that does explain why it’s never been that big in the West.

Reading that the other ones were even more lacking in content I’m surprised the series ever got this far. I hadn’t played the first two but after all the positive reviews I took a chance on Splatoon 3 and… it’s fine? I really like the controls and the basic concept but the game seems so bear bones I keep thinking there’s something else I have to unlock. Here’s my write-up and my friend Toby posted these photos. The five co-owners of the Four Quarters arcade at Elephant Park were present. The ‘King of Kong’ and controversial American arcade record holder Billy Mitchell was at Elephant and Castle last Friday evening, where he validated one of his contested records, achieving a perfect score in Pac-Man after 7.5 hours of play without losing a life! Some people say story is important to them for a game but for me it’s not the plot it’s just the ambience and feel of a game that’s important, not exactly what’s going on. If this had just been generic fantasy or whatever it would’ve never held my attention but weird French steampunk? That I can forgive quite a bit for. Sure, it’s not nearly as polished as From game and the level design isn’t nearly as good but I’ve still enjoyed it plenty.Ī big part of it is the strange setting and art design, which I think goes a long way towards getting you (or at least me!) invested in a game, despite other failings it might have. I’d now be surprised if the Switch 2 isn’t out by at least Christmas 2024.Ĭan I just say how much I’m enjoying Steelrising? It didn’t get amazing reviews but I had nothing else to play and I love Soulslikes so I took a chance on it and I was pleasantly surprised. That is always the signal that a publisher looks for, in terms of pushing their next console. Someone mentioned that the Switch is still selling well, which is true, but it is selling less than it used, if only by a relatively small amount. I could even go along with the fan theory that Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdom is intended to be the bookend for the current Switch. I’m coming round to the idea that the Switch 2 is getting pretty close to be announced, probably some time next year or early 2024. Maybe that’s the lesson they’ll learn if they do another one but given how obvious a mistake that was to make, I’m not so sure.

Like GC’s review said, if it was trying to do something different it wouldn’t matter but it’s not. I am surprised find the CEO guy say that it didn’t make much money though, with the implication that it cost a lot of money to make, because my lasting impression of that was that it was incredibly cheap.įrom the bad graphics to the non-name songs on the radio the whole thing looked like a BBC production compared to the big budget Hollywood equivalent that is GTA. It might be another reboot but I don’t think they’ll give up on what used to be quite a big franchise. I don’t know if this will make the PlayStation 5 the best console ever or anything, but I think it already is in terms of other hardware at the same point in their life.Ĭonsidering some of the rubbish Embracer has already committed to I’m pretty sure there will be another Saints Row. The only rival I can think of is the Switch but while its first year was great – better than the PlayStation 5 – its second year was pretty poor, and it’s only got worse since then.
