That controller looks very uncomfortable to use. Doesn’t your had feel cramped? Or are you using it with just one hand?

The first one? How are you liking it? It’s still in my backlog.

Well, it’s an old game. I enjoyed the game thoroughly, though I do agree that the game feels a bit over hyped to me. Which is not to say that it isn’t great. But it didn’t feel like as big of a leap as everyone made it seem.

As for side quests, yeah, while most of side content is just kill this or bring that, there are some pretty good side-quests in there.

I have Fitness Boxing 2, and while it’s not perfect, it’s not a bad way to get yourself moving.

Haven’t used it in a while though.

Are they putting them one at a time, or did they released them all and then just posting the videos slowly?

Heh, I guess I’ll wait for the reviews of DKC Returns HD before getting it.

Yeah, going to give it at least one more try. Let’s see how it goes.

That was a nice song. 😀

Hehe, a very valid point, but I am assuming they won’t give their most hyped game to such a new team.

But then again, it’s a Ubisoft AAA game, so even with all experienced devs, I don’t have very high hopes for it. They make great smaller games (Rayman, PoP: The Lost Crown etc) but then they decide not to make any sequels.

As a dev (but not a game dev), this can be either good or bad, depending on how the team is grouped, and what their development flow is.

Half new devs means, half of them are veterans, which would also include team leads and the managers, who will plan, review and test whatever those devs are doing, so if their workflow is solid, other than some slowdown in development speed, it shouldn’t cause much issue.

How is the difficulty in Donkey Kong Country Returns and Tropical Freeze?

Heh, that’s cute.

Donkey Kong Country is the only Donkey Kong I have actually finished. I made heavy use of save states, but made a rule that I won’t them within the levels. So, basically used them as unlimited lives, and boy, did I need those!

Started Donkey Kong Country 2, but it’s soo difficult. Want to get back to them sometime though.

That’s a really interesting mechanic, exterminating a whole species.

Heh. Haven’t played Deux Ex in a long time, but that’s sad.

Have heard good things about Bug Fables. How are you liking it?

Nice! Love the Cat Quest games, glad to see more content!

I wasn’t talking about 3rd party, there are enough of them that will run on a PS4 level hardware as long as we don’t count new AAA. Problem is first party games. If there are no first party games, then on what basis can it compete with Steam Deck or upcoming Switch 2?

With the way game industry is, I wonder how many of these will be layed off in couple of years with something like “we overestimated industry expansion” or something.

I have become pretty pessimistic about gaming companies.

They have just released a beta of streaming directly from cloud. Don’t know if there are any limitations, but if everything goes well, it may release officially in a few months.

Well, you still have that other kidney…
