That’s what I thought and picked up Empire of Sin. Mistake.

Also, Empire of Sin (I don’t know what his specific role was in that game). So I wouldn’t let nostalgia cloud modern releases that have ended up being flops from his studio. In fact, I wouldn’t want him around solely for nostalgia, or yes, but stick to that and not putting out lackluster games while trying to play up your name.

“It was a good deal, what can you do” x1000

Well, they are very successful at canceling things!

I came across something interesting with a FireTV stick. It’s got Amazon’s Luna cloud gaming service on it. It looks like it really wants to push Luna+, a paid subscription tier. However, they also have connections to several other gaming services, which supply games you can play outside of the sub. Most don’t seem to supply many games (EA, Epic, Ubisoft). But GOG on the other hand supports many Luna games! I’m not even sure how many. It’s probably not a ton, but still. My personal collection with GOG is only represented by a fraction that are actually playable on Luna. A bunch of games I’ve gotten free, too, since Prime Gaming has provided them for being an Amazon Prime member, along with helpful community members pointing these things out when they come around! GOG also does a pretty good job of displaying which games have Luna capability on their site. They seem to be leaning in on this.

For shits and giggles, I ran the Steam and Xbox apps also on the FireTV stick. I only gave it a limited run, but it looks like you’ll need to keep your computer running to mirror Steam, while Xbox requires Game Pass to play games, even ones you own! Big thumbs up at least for the ease of Luna!!

Cool find!

They might have the dustbin of Microsoft innovations in their sights actually.

I love the first game lol. Glad the series made it though. Too many titles for me to continue with it, but I do be coming back to the first game every so often!

Oh, it really bothers you that you can’t stream games before they’ve been released? It’s Nintendo’s fault, for everything, all the time! So much entitlement.

Sneaky

Zelda looking environment, top down dungeon-like, for one of the screenshots!

This is an article about tariffs. They will affect many products in the United States and many companies, not just Nintendo, will have to respond. But by all means, let it be just another moment for haters like you all to show that’s all you got. Any moment to say fuck Nintendo, even when it has nothing to do with them.

So brave

I figured I might have. I just wanted to note the past of the AC series.

“Normal” people mindlessly buy AC whenever they release a new one, despite most of them being the same mediocrity each time. One or two get mentioned as people’s favorite and the only games they can even recommend in the series, again, despite there being numerous games. People also shouldn’t be upset when an objective mediocrity is noted. A small release window between games is one such factor. But this is what people want. So, enjoy!

And it didn’t piggyback into a new title. I suppose there’s still time for that, but not really. It was just a half-assed re-release, with the Nintendo price tag. They’re not even the best AW games.

Club Nintendo 2 time??

Right. At this point it feels a little like time wasted on collecting free games that never get played.

I just like the idea of skipping one’s only life story to get on with the game already!

It crashed a lot too. Which was odd for a DS game.

Honestly, I thought it longer.

Bowtie, but I think the neck tie could stand a better chance if it was wider IMO.

Maybe it’s because it’s a definitive version and not the original release.

I’m guessing the prettiness attracts more than a great gameplay. But I’m basically there with you.

Basically what I’ve seen everyone stream on Twitch throughout the year.

I once bet a guy a $1 that I could take two people, one a stockbroker the other a homeless person, and trade their lives to see the social ramifications. Lotta laughs, that’s for sure.

I appreciate that. Maybe I’ll mess around with the options some more. I believe it’d be the Tetris game I’d look at again if I ended up doing so. No access to VR, but that might be neat.

I’m not sure I played that one but the name is definitely familiar.

Reminds me of the business plans of the business guys from Ready Player One. “We estimate we can sell up to 80 percent of a user’s visual field before inducing seizures.” 😂

They’ve been messing around with Tetris this entire generation. So many better Tetris games have existed before and we got stuck with Tetris 99 (which admittedly isn’t the worst, just distracting imo), Tetris Effect (more distractions, less fun), and a slew of ancient games, some connected to pay services.

My favorite Tetris of all time, and I’m no master, is The New Tetris, from N64. Its feature of block making (4x4 constructions) was very interesting. Some Tetris games since then have implemented their own unique features, some more interesting than others. All of these games have been tabled in favor of those others I mentioned, with the closest being another flop imo, Puyo Puyo Tetris. Some garbage combination with terrible graphics.

Tetris has been done dirty over the last several years. And, this latest game, Tetris Forever, looks like a tribute to that terribleness!

Folded right into the trash

Make better games, assholes

You’re ancient!

Rockstar expectations be pretty low these days. They just removed the name of the developer from the recent GTA remakes. I don’t know about this company anymore.

Russian pigs

Playing leaked games early. Wow, you have no standards. Just hate for Nintendo.

From what I can tell, this trailer is about it going gold.

They signed a deal with Sony, too.

The latest Nintendo!
