I fear for Jet Set Radio. At least we got Bomb Rush Cyberfunk
- Comment on Nintendo Is Telling Game Publishers Switch 2 Will Be Delayed 8 months ago:
I feel like it was the past month or two? There’s supposed to be a Nintendo direct soon which might tell us more
- Comment on Are there any games like Diablo but not Diablo because Diablo? 8 months ago:
There’s a game on game pass that I recently saw called Ghost Lore that I think claims it’s inspired by Diablo? Might be worth checking out
- Comment on Have video games become expensive now? 9 months ago:
Compared to how little my salary increases each year? Yeah they sure feel that way
- Comment on First game you played 9 months ago:
Crash Bandicoot was also my first game! I was only around 2 years old give or take. I enjoyed the NES and Sega genesis a lot more until I got a bit older as it was easier to get the hang of.
The second game I saw(but did not play) was tomb raider. It made me cry when the wolves jump scare you in the first level lol.
- Comment on Persona 3 Reload sold 1 million copies worldwide within its first week, becoming the fastest selling game in Atlus history 9 months ago:
Does this include gamepass downloads? Either way that’s great. I’m glad Atlus has recently brought their games over to PC and xbox
- Comment on What, Exactly, Is Xbox Thinking? 9 months ago:
I’m only nervous that Microsoft will stop developing Xbox’s. If we’re eventually forced to move to a digital only system, I want some kind of guarantee that customers can always access the games they paid for. Otherwise I think sharing games with other consoles is a great idea
- Comment on Game genres where "It's just more X content" is more than enough 10 months ago:
Old bungie halo titles. CE to reach please. I just want more of that.
Mirrors Edge 1.
Jet set radio future and Bomb rush cyberfunk
Picross 3D
Animal crossing new leaf (new horizons was good, but they just needed to bring all past features forward so that it didn’t feel like a doll house vs a life sim)
If I could get meta for a second, playing games online with my friends back from 2007 to 2014. Those were some rough times, but also some of the best times. We grew up and work schedules and time zones mess everything up.
- Comment on Working As Intended: The MMOs we lost in 2023 10 months ago:
I really want to get into FFXI but with the majority of people at endgame content I’m not sure I would get the same experience anyways?
I tried FFXIV and it felt oddly lonely. There wasn’t enough content that supported group play aside from the dungeons.
I think one day I’ll just have to set aside all other hobbies and gorge myself on both until I finish them/they click for me.
- Comment on The Best, Worst and Blandest of 2023 | Fully Ramblomatic 10 months ago:
I’m surprised by Amnesia. I thought if felt incredibly dated. The AI pathing/logic was rough.
If it came out in 2012 I would have enjoyed it a ton, but it just felt frustrating with how the AI worked.
- Comment on What's your favorite game you played this year? (Doesn't have to be released this year ) 10 months ago:
Outer wilds is definitely one of my favorites too. I went in blind which was awesome. Completely caught me off guard right after the tutorial. I didn’t expect such intricate mechanics
- Comment on What's your favorite game you played this year? (Doesn't have to be released this year ) 10 months ago:
Well Tears of the Kingdom ate up about 4 months of the year for me. Bomb Rush Cyberfunk was a game I had been waiting 20 years to play. So that was really nice. I just wish there was more of it to be honest haha.
Resident evil 4 remake and Bloodborne were my next favorites.
- Comment on So I tried Lethal company... and didn't like it. Does it get better eventually ? 11 months ago:
Sometimes we just don’t like certain genres. I’ve tried dozens of times to get into rogue likes and I cannot get into them. I enjoyed hades decently enough, and I could get to the boss. But the gameplay loop always gets repetitive for me. It’s weird!
- Comment on 11 months ago:
Halo
- Comment on Will more Studios end up releasing games on Fortnite? 11 months ago:
I know this wasn’t intentional but the whole phrasing of “created by the devs of rockband” has “Boruto’s Dad” levels of energy lol
- Comment on "The Next Subnautica" aims to deliver underwater survival spooks in early 2025 11 months ago:
Yeah I felt like below zero could have gone without the above land content. It just wasn’t nearly as good as the rest of what they had made. I really missed having the submarine thing too
- Comment on What are some video games that had remarkably hectic public reaction at physical stores during release day? 1 year ago:
The only midnight launch I ever got to be a part of was the launch of the New 3DS XL. I got the majoras mask edition. It was actually a relatively small midnight launch as far as they used to go. That being said I’m really glad I got to experience at least one. I’m not sure if we’ll see massive midnight launches in the future.
I remember always seeing and hearing about midnight launches during the 360/ps3 era. I remember halo 2 and halo 3 brought in massive crowds.
When the 360 launched my dad went and waited outside a Wal-Mart in -25°c weather for a couple hours. I wanted to join but had school the next morning. Probably for the best as I would have been a whining little baby about the cold lol.

Alright so then pay us for the time spent in loading screens lol
- Comment on Luke's Thoughts On A Bunch Of Video Games He Didn't Get To Write About Because He Was Unemployed - Aftermath 1 year ago:
Play bomb rush cyberfunk. It’s not 100% like JSR or JSRF but it is the closest love letter to the two games we’ve ever seen. It is very good
- Comment on [deleted] 1 year ago:
I could be entirely off base here, but I remember really enjoying tenchu z when it first came out. I have no idea how it holds up today, but a friend and I played tons of co-op and had a blast being ninjas
- Comment on [deleted] 1 year ago:
I gave genshin a good try. I put in about 100 hours and I had to put it down. Finally getting a new character was great…until you realized the grind for the characters is a massive slog. So many materials to grind, and then some materials are gated behind certain days of the week. It just felt super punishing. I think if they got rid of the upgrade grind I probably would have stuck with it
- Comment on [deleted] 1 year ago:
I had a game breaking bug that prevented me from getting into the end game boss area. I was disappointed. The rest of the game was fun from what I remember
- Comment on he finished Paper Mario 64 1 year ago:
Lmao I can see the tipofmyjoystick posts in 15-20 years
“Hey so I played this game on a laptop, it had a red guy and it was turn based and everything had these flat visuals. It might have been a playstation game because I remember using a ps4 controller”
- Comment on Bungie CEO Claims Layoffs Were Due to Destiny 2 Underperformance - IGN 1 year ago:
I stopped playing when the first dlc dropped. Honestly if they stuck with their original vision of destiny and kept the first game going I would have probably stuck with it.
I miss the halo era of bungie. Bring that bungie back lol
- Comment on Nintendo of America President: “Everyone Has the Right To Form a Union” 1 year ago:
This is kind of a nothing burger. Unfortunately companies say this all the time.
As history has shown, actions speak louder than words. You should only believe these companies statements if they actually allow a union to form without any interference on their part.
- Comment on Coming Soon to Game Pass: Cities: Skylines II, Dead Space, Jusant, Mineko’s Night Market, and More - Xbox Wire 1 year ago:
I purchased a physical copy for once, so that’s a no go for me. However I did get it on sale so it’s not quite as bad as it could be.
I’ve found this happens at least once a year or so. So I’ve just come to accept it haha.
- Comment on Coming Soon to Game Pass: Cities: Skylines II, Dead Space, Jusant, Mineko’s Night Market, and More - Xbox Wire 1 year ago:
Once again I’ve paid the game pass tax. I just bought dead space last week lol
I kinda wish they would announce upcoming games sooner or something. It makes it hard to determine if you should buy something or hold off indefinitely
- Comment on Do you find the description Live Service Game off-putting? 1 year ago:
On one hand constant updates and continuing a games longevity can be nice, but in reality it usually just means fomo which I despise.
- Comment on Game recommendation, looking for easier western 3D ARPG 1 year ago:
Just a suggestion, but I’ve heard you might need to adjust your playstyle for certain missions.
- Comment on What is your gaming "comfort food" and why? 1 year ago:
I thought the second was interesting. I didn’t like it as much as the first but for what it was it was pretty good.
The way they made the open world didn’t work very well in some ways. For example to get the player into new areas they had to funnel them through specific choke points. Additionally I wasn’t a fan of forced combat.
However I thought the main missions and the graphics were high points. I enjoyed finding various collectibles/exploring and some time trials were actually a pretty good time. I hope one day they decide to revisit the series but I have a feeling it might be shelved for quite a long time.
